Coming from bustling Singapore and choosing an expensive place (eg compared to the best Bali hotels) in rural Bintan, you expect calm leisure life in a genuine Indonesian environment at very high quality. Well, the place is quiet in the sense that you are in a totally secluded area of Bintan, far away from anything looking like real Indonesian life.... more

My partner and I booked our stay at Mayang Sari through the Nirwana Gardens website. The 'Bintan weekday escapes' deal was too irresitable at S$160/night for a Sea-view chalet. Having stayed at Banyan Tree Bintan (at US$500+/night) on our previous trip here, we were prepared to lower our expectations even though the reviews on here were pretty encouraging. However, we... more

Mayang Sari was exactly as described. In our case it was not really nice, because we took the package and go the chalet next to the last one, but on the other hand, it is really quiet there. The staff was very friendly and gave me an extended check out. Luggage transfer was so convenient, that we put them there... more

We were travelling to the far east and wanted a weeks rest on the beach, our agent suggested Bintan and a Resort hotel. We checked that hotel on Trip Advisor and decided that the Mayang Sari, although a lower star rating looked nicer and had better reviews hat the Mayang Sari offers rustic accommodation but its on the beach not... more

My friends and I stayed 4 days in an absolutely beautiful, cosy place. As what most forummers will testify, Mayang Sari is a great place to relax, unwind and have fun. We were given great rooms - Sea Turtle 2 & 3, unblocked view of the infinite sea ! The breakfast was a good spread of local and western fare,... more

Overall Mayang Sari was great, the resort is clean & we chose the seaview. Thanks to this site, really I carefully plan the trip according to all of your reviews out there. Moreover since its my first time to Bintan...And I never regretted it, up to the point where 30 mins to checkout we were still soaking in the sea.... more

Nice beach front in front of the hotel, calm, clean beach, nice waters, nothing you can complain about the room as all you need is there; The beach over at beach club isn't as nice & clean as compared to Mayang Sari so you made the right choice by staying here; Welcome dance included when you first enter the hotel;... more

Was there first week of June and checked-in mid of the week. Staff are attentive, polite, and friendly. Land transfer from ferry terminal to resort was stress-free. We were able to get the chalet rightaway as we were the only couple arrived during that time. Chalet were bigger than it looks from outside and it was so close to the... more

We only stayed here two nights in a garden unit with Air Con - needed when it was 32C!. Found the resort very quiet, facilities were OK, Beach Bar & Cafe was well utilised as was the terrific calm blue warm water right in front of the resort. Breakfast was included in our rate and was in the main restaurant,... more
