Bintan Resorts

Bintan Resorts is the name for a resort enclave occupying the northern area of Bintan Island in Indonesia. Established in 1990 as a joint venture between the Indonesian and Singaporean governments, it is located in the village of Sebong Lagoi in the district of Teluk Sebong, Bintan Regency. The enclave is operated by PT Bintan Resort Cakrawala.

Although the area is within Indonesian territory, Bintan Resorts is marketed at residents from nearby Singapore, for whom Bintan is a short ferry trip away. The area is generally a short-stay destination, with 90% of visitors staying less than seven days.[1] The development received 410,454 visitors in 2009, of which the largest proportion, almost 30%, were Singaporean.[2] Bintan welcomed a record-breaking one million visitors for the first time in 2018.[3]
