Indonesia

Riau Islands
There are 3214 islands in the Riau Islands archipelago, spread across the South China Sea of which Batam and Bintan are the largest. Both islands have seen rapid development in the last few years, especially Batam which has become the industrial centre for Singapore.

The northern portion of Bintan is made up of international-class resorts and is popular with tourists from Singapore and Malaysia for its endless stretches of white sandy beach and wide range of holiday activities including watersports, spas and golf. The rest of the islands in the province are very much off the beaten track, offering endless exploration opportunities for the adventurous and have also become a favourite destination for mountain bike enthusiasts from Singapore.

Nikoi Island
Nikoi is a 15 hectare island located 8km off the East Coast of Bintan, Indonesia and less than 85km from Singapore. Long regarded as one of the most stunning islands on this relatively unspoilt coast, Nikoi is fortunate to have remained in pristine condition. It is ringed with white sandy beaches and coral reefs of spectacular colour and diversity and a coastline studded with magnificent white granite boulders that seemingly defy gravity. Rising to a height of 60m, the island also boasts a rain forest where colossal trees, including native Banyan trees, provide a sanctuary to a diverse population of local birds.

The island has been sensitively developed as a unique and exclusive holiday destination that preserves the natural environment and provides maximum privacy and seclusion for its guests.
Nikoi's 6 beach houses can be rented individually or the island can be rented as a whole. A subsidised rate is available for guests who choose to sleep on board the yacht more...
