Reviews for Bintan Agro Beach Resort & Spa

Review 1:i didnt like the deluxe suite as there was no bath tub and the room kept having power trip..but maybe cause the room was on the sea..but still it was nice..

Review 2:we had a free upgrade to a junior suite and the room was amazing..this is out second time there..but we prefer our previous room as it was much comfy..

Review 3:Kelong resturtrant staff, very defensive even when they make a mistake.

Review 4:Friendly staff, attend to requests promptly. Their staff at the jetty was helpful and polite.

Review 5:The hotel was under major renovation and drilling could be heard throughout the day. I am sure when it is completed, the end result would be worth it.

Review 6:The room was nice and spacious. A big balcony with a beach view was an added bonus.

Review 7:F&B department need to be more creative and must capture busy period to fc imitate guests experience. More can be done and look like no planning for Christmas. Pick up from jetty, we were asked to walk far under the rain. Should provide umbrella. The beach are dead in the afternoon, 11 am onwards. Swimming pool must have pool etiquette fr the users. Swim suites and not with purdah, t shirt and tudung. The pool were milky in color due to poor maintenance. The building is new but no simulation done. Buffet food slow in replenishment. At times fed up waiting for refill.

Review 8:The staff are hospitable. They try their best to accommodate the guests request. Robin has a good potential and also salesman ship.

Review 9:We were cheated of Indo SIM card upon arrival. The hotel staff who met us recommended a shop at BBT. Each sim card cost us 160,000rp and was told there 2GB internet usage valid for 1 mth wen wat was printed on the casing was only 10000rp. We bought 2 total 360,000rp. On the same day we receive msg that the card expiring on the very day and balance only 300rp. We approach the staff who recommended us the next day. He appeared not surprised at all and told us maybe we got cheated. He then told us that we can top up the card at the hotel reception. Set us wondering if the hotel rep corroborated with the shop. Howver, the driver who fetch us was good and appeared more sincere. Maybe we should hv asked him instead.

Review 10:The food is affordable and delicious.

Review 11:Wish the facility in the room like the aircon and the tap at the basin to be in a better condition; the second room we had taken had very effective aircon and room facility; Cost to go to nearby beaches are pretty expensive compared to taking a complimentary shuttle to sister resort and then taking a cab from there.

Review 12:Excellent resort with great hospitality; Mesmerizing sea view and great food at the Sunmoon Restaurant; Very good breakfast facility and choices; Excellent choice for even those who enjoy water sports

Review 13:If you're going to enjoy the sea it's not the hotel for it/ Although it is situated just on the water you won't be able to swim сause of shallow water and seaweed/ Hotel has a lot of stuff and less visitors but when we came to the restaurant one hour before closing we were refused in supper, also during breakfast which finishes 10 am we were reminded that its over as if we interfered someone staying there 10 minutes later. There were a lot of bikes but we couldnt take them for rent. General impression - we just wasted our time and money/

Review 14:The only staff that was helpful was Dedi. The check-in was ok with no help in carrying luggage. The restaurant staff were fine, but not very proactive.

Review 15:It was fairly clean and basic amenities were available

Review 16:too costly on every games. even the table tennis and the snooker table which no people play for very long time also need to charge? Most of the resort i went don't charge on this.

Review 17:view of the sea

Review 18:Luckily there was a small convenience store because there is absolutely nothing around.

Review 19:Great place to stay if you're looking for calm and quiet place. Good location for kite surfing. Nice and efficient staff

Review 20:The resort is far from the ferries and the beach is not so clean and beautiful. I think it s a resort for who love aquatic sports

Review 21:Comfortable room. Kind staff and wonderful breakfast.

Review 22:The swimming pool is dirty when I had a swim with my partner. Water for both shower n cubicle is very light. Not much of power. No wifi in the room.

Review 23:The foods at Kelong is great! With a friendly staffs service.

Review 24:Check-in part is less than expectation. Especially they do know that we are rushing however we waited some time for the staff to lead to us to our room. The end we find the room ourself.

Review 25:The reservation staff was friendly and prompt to reply my enquiries. We enjoy the breakfast and the omelett was delicious!!! The local food served at sunmoon restaurant was nice.

Review 26:Only the distance makes me sad. It takes 1hour and a half to travel from the Ferry terminal to the resort.

Review 27:Agro Bintan Beach Resort is a place where you can enjoy your vacation without necessarily spending a lot. The food was very tasty and fresh, the staff were so warm and friendly and the service was really great that they will assure to give you your necessities during your stay. I was also amazed with their "organic" vegetable garden which is very rare to find in resorts. This is a good place to stay if you want quality time for your friends and families.

Review 28:Room aircon and bath tab are not function properly. Every night 5 min no electric power. both swimming pools are too dirty.

Review 29:Room size is good. Restaurant is quite nice to eat in the beach place. Staffs approach is quite good (friendly).

Review 30:The transport rates into the city were quite expensive and not very worth it. Not much sightseeing venues available. Come here if you just want to wind down or for a short getaway. The food in the resort restaurant could be better.

Review 31:The service level of the staff was better than average. Weather was mostly sunny (very important for the water sports) so you might want to check up on the weather forecast before making your trip dates concrete.

Review 32:The beach can be cleaned up to make it even better. The bathroom in the room was slightly mouldy, especially the shower cubicle.

Review 33:The resort is really peaceful. The fact that our room was east facing and right next to the sea made it really wonderful to watch the sunrise everyday from the verandah. The placement of the dinner restaurant over stilts in the sea with nice candlelight made it all the more romantic.

Review 34:Not much maybe the bed too soft

Review 35:The staff at the restaurant is very touching. Knowing that we are from Cantonese and purposely sang a Cantonese song for us

Review 36:Room are clean but the rest of the hotel could be cleaned better. Facilities a bit old.

Review 37:Nice place for kitesurfing. Hotel is not really charming but good quality price for Bintan.

Review 38:Poor upkeep of place. Sea is not nice. Yea you could call it rustic if you like these type of travels but the journey from the ferry terminal was way too long.

Review 39:No wifi in the room! Seriously?! And no control of guests, allowing them to loiter around just right outside my group to play. It was a group of 10! The bathroom was dirty. The towels were stained. The breakfast were swarmed with flies. The waiters and waitress just stand there and watch you eat. They don't bother to cover back the food.

Review 40:The staffs. Very friendly. Very accommodating. I moved to Nirwana Hotel Resort the next day. Agro's staffs are all very very friendly, unlike those at Nirwana.

Review 41:Some of the staff are not as friendly. But most are great, especially the water sports guys and the singer in Sun moon restaurant.

Review 42:Nice small beach with very little people. Feels like a private beach at times.

Review 43:Construction were not informed when i did the booking.

Review 44:Service from the staff were great! All were so warm & friendly

Review 45:Bed / shower

Review 56:Great place for kite surfers, and great views over the sea and the swimming pool area

Review 57:limited swimming pools

Review 60:The location is awesome however far from city center

Review 61:Free WiFi is only available in the lobby. The location is very far from the ferry terminal.

Review 62:A lot. Basically it does not worth the price of US$100++. Unlikely to come here again.

Review 63:The only thing satisfying is the cheap fruit juice.

Review 64:More variety for breakfast buffet

Review 65:Shower was not strong enough.

Review 66:The beach was small but beautiful. The staff were all very lovely and friendly. Everyone there speaks English.

Review 67:the service and attention to guest. the reception was somewhat disinterested and lacked in acknowledgement skills

Review 68:sea activities

Review 69:Smelly toilet at my room. Cackroach kinda smell!

Review 71:kite boarding

Review 72:It is too far from city centre..eating places,shopping area..it looks old

Review 73:Like the seaview

Review 74:Always black out

Review 75:Service was very good.and nice place

Review 76:The Transportation,such very ,very expensive,nothing much that I can says ,whats I like,when I,was they,

Review 77:Nothing much,

Review 78:good food with fair price

Review 79:Very expensive place. Everything is the same price as Singapore. Will not go there again.

Review 80:Sea sport. Nice employees

Review 81:too far from the ferry terminal, need 1.5hrs to reach the hotel. The sea is not clear, disappointed.

Review 82:The resort needs a major revamp

Review 83:The staffs were polite, the foods were cheap and delicious.

Review 84:Air conditional is not working well Hot water is not available more than 5 minutes

Review 85:Nice view, yummy foods.

Review 86:Not much activity can be done there at night.

Review 87:Sea view from room is beautiful. Could see the sunrise if weather permits and at night can see beautiful moonlight reflected in the water if it is a full moon. The Sunmoon Kelong restaurant serves nice seafood. Enjoy playing and watching fireworks.

Review 88:Rooms are very basic, water in pool not clean, sun loungers old, scruffy and very uncomfortable, the sea is dirty (plastic rubbish), the sister resort Cabana is much nicer but there the beach is very tarry and the restaurant is more expensive (for the same dishes) and not as good as in the Agro. I don't want to be mistaken - the hotel is nice if the standard is OK for you. But it is not good if you want to swim in the sea or relax at the pool.

Review 89:The restaurants are excellent, we loved the tuna sandwich at the pool and the fresh mango juice, service is very friendly and helpful

Review 90:Bathroom and Pool was not that clean

Review 91:There were not many guest when we went there so it was so peaceful which I like the most. Even we got there early we could early check-in and the staff were nice. The bed was very comfortable. I love the SunMoon restaurant. the food was nice and cheap. I read some review about this hotel, so i didn't expect too high before i go. Lastly, I like this hotel. it was very relaxing. I had a good time here.

Review 92:There was no means of traveling outside the resort. It felt like a prison. Just renting motor bikes to explore the rest of trikora beach would be nice and would give you some freedom.

Review 93:The snorkeling on the coral reefs was super

Review 94:Although the SunMoon offers varity of seafood, they mix coconut n peanuts unnecessarily in most of their recipe! Ex. the black pepper crab had peanut taste!

Review 95:Junior Suite above Sea :) its value for money. I like the sea sports dept, who swiftly arranged alternate transportation to mangrove tour, since it was drizzling. They value guest's safety more than juz making money. Much appreciated!

Review 96:Bad in the breakfast choice and the beach is out of our expectation but yet it not affect our sweet moment. Location is far from city.

Review 97:Took 3d2n with my deares for sweet holiday for first valentine. Felt enjoyable an completely relaxation for the short break out from city. Mind relax to the max. Having funny joke for us during our spa&massage session, memorable dating vacation for me and my baby. :)

Review 98:... Except, one major problem (for me) were the sunloungers, or lack of! Only 7 in total around the pool, very old, made of heavy wood, in desperate need of replacing, with NO mattresses, so really uncomfortable (this really was a do nothing holiday for us so we expected to do a lot of lounging around, but honestly, the chairs were just too uncomfortable!) Also, the hotel didn't provide beach towels, but I'd read this on someone else's comments luckily, so we did take our own towels with us. Also; beware of the tides, they change every six hours, so depending on the time, sometimes you couldn't swim in the sea in the mornings, you had to wait til much later on in the day, same thing for watersports, they weren't always available first thing in the morning if the tide was out!

Review 99:We loved the fact that we basically had both pools to ourselves. The beach at Agro wasn't brilliant, so we would use the free shuttle to other hotel, Cabana, and use the beach there which was fabulous. Again, there was rarely anyone else there and we generally had the beach to ourselves. The rooms are a good decide, with sea views. Very comfortable beds. The breakfast buffet was huge, a bit weird at times for us Westerners... lots of fried meats, rice, noodles, curries, but plenty of pastries, cereals, fruit too. There are two restaurants, of which the Sun Moon restaurant is lovely, set on the end of a pier over the sea, with a lovely sea breeze blowing in, was bliss, and sooooo cheap. As a family of five with teenage sons, the average price of an evening meal for all of us was about 20 euros! We used the spa facilities too, again, great value for money and very professional. The water sports were very good too: the boys tried out the banana boat, big mable, fly fish, etc and we all went on a snorkelling trip to White Sands, which was paradise! Frankly, for the price we paid, we couldn't have asked for me, you really do get what you pay for, so we weren't expecting the Ritz, so we were pretty much happy with everything.

Review 100:What I did not like the most is the sea coz its not that clean. It has too many weeds. But you can try to go to cabana and walk through the shore to another small island which is adventurous for me. The pool is not that clean to. The management must do something about it. All in all it is still a nice place to go.. Its worth visiting and good for value for money. For me is that I received a bit more than I pages. =) we enjoyed there so much!!

Review 101:I generally liked the place, same with my girlfriends' opinion. The service was excellent! They were very hospitable. Nothing to complain about. I liked most is the food and massage! Food was great and its not too expensive coz their serving size at sunmoon restaurant was more than enough for two that is their "small" serving while medium can be enough for 3-4 persons. The room was very clean, organized and comfortable. Other notable is that you can also visit their sister resorts. They will ferry you there for free. In the morning its nice to visit cabana coz you can hop onto another small island just by walk. Err I have a lot to mention but little time. I can assure you, you will have a great time here if you are looking for a peaceful place to stay. I recommend you go with your friends coz water sports require minimum number of person.

Review 102:wifi / internet connection was only limited to the front desk area, TV stations did not have cable, or other informative channels

Review 103:serene location, very affordable food, room was really really nice, very lovely view of the sea, highly recommend their spa services

Review 104:the location depends on the tide being otherwise the swimming is very restrictive and so are all the water sports. it is fair value but really needs a good overhaul. parts of the grounds were OK, other parts lots of rubbish lying around and was in need of sorting out. you have to walk through restaurant to get to pool which was annoying if you wanted to swim before 10.00am

Review 105:There are 2 resorts 10 miles apart we actually transferred after 3 days to the sister resort which was newer and had a much better beach. the food at the restaurant at the Agro was better other than that it was all rather tired

Review 106:- You have to travel 1 hour (close to 1 hour) from Bintan terminal which is the only thing. But honestly - it was worth it!!

Review 107:- The SunMoon restaurant is simply awesome!!! - Water sports are good. - Ample walking space available. - Lot of trees and peace - Nice swimming pool and grand delicious breakfast!! This place is definitely good if you have moderate expectations and average budget.

Review 108:The pool was simple and there were no issuance of beach towel. We were very upset with the beach as it was dirty and the seabed was not that comfortable to step on. We stayed in the Junior Suite as it suppose to have the beach view but unfortunately we were not able to see the beach from our room at all.

Review 109:We had lunch at the restaurant. The food was very tasty n the service was good as well.

Review 110:A bit isolated, not so easy to get about to surrounding areas for sightseeing or local markets

Review 111:Fantastic views Peaceful place Mangroves tour Spa treatments Spacious surroundings

Review 112:Bathroom could have been a bit cleaner- grout and shower curtain, butit was ok. No pool towels or pads on loungers. Would have liked a safein the room.

Review 113:Friendly place where the facilities were more than I expected andprovided good value for money. Nice seafood restaurant. Good prices.Rustic feel rather than posh resort. Lovely sea view.

Review 114:Far from ferry terminal, but I can accept it! If easy to have a carsick, better not choose. Still recommend!!!

Review 115:The food in a restaurant near the hotel!value for money!definitely!

Review 116:1) Sea/ Beach is not good as expected.2) Mud n dirty water on sea side 3)cost of food is expensive a bit 4)wi fi very slow must go to some areas (lobby n restaurant) only to access. If directly can get in rooms is good.

Review 117:1)Sun rise view was excellent from the room.2)Break fast is good 3)Beach side water sports activities (banana boat) are good. My son enjoyed well. 4)Free shuttle services to nearby sister hotel
