An island stay...
Getaway island...
Fishhead Island is tucked under the southeastern side of Bintan Island. It's a boat ride away from Batam Island and is a real getaway. The Island comes to life during the annual Neptune Regatta that races from Batam down to the Equator and back. !
If you wanted to have a whole island to yourself, this could be it.
​
​
One thing for sure the Resort is as @five-star@ as you can find in Barelang. Sure the hotels in Nagoya and Batam Center offer full facilities but the Nipah Island Resort is the biggest once you cross over th efirst of the bridges on your way south.
​
Many of the cycling groups exercising on the 70 km stretch, use the Resort as the start and finish point. This is particularly important for the lady-cyclists as this is the last nice-toilet stop for the next 50km's.
​
​
The rooms are clean and comfortable with a nice view facing north. During the windy season, a strong northeast Monsoon blows striaght in the balcony doors. Just ask for a higher level so that you can get the best of the air.
​
There's a large man-made swimming lagoon right in front of the Resort. This will save you from swimming in the bay where there are some really trecherous currents.
​
The swimming lagoon is big enough, we've seen the resorts 3 Jet Ski's in it!
