Location
The hotel is located at the Lagoi Bay area, a 12-minute drive from Bandar Bentan Telani Ferry international port and about 45 minutes from Raja Haji Fisabilillah Airport of Tanjung Pinang. It is also close to Lake Lagoi, a 2.5-hectare freshwater lake, where guests can jog or walk along the pavement. There are also pedal boats for guests to try out, and golfers will be pleased to know that the Ria Binta Golf Club is just six kilometres away.

Accommodation
The hotel offers 308 rooms and villas, with some still under construction during my stay in May. Room sizes start from 35m², and each has a balcony except for the Cabana category, which features a terrace.

The eight units of one-bedroom pool villas come with a patio, plunge pool, dining and living areas, bathtub and jacuzzi, as well as a single spa bed. They also have access to the garden where private events can be arranged..

My Deluxe Pool View room was located at the centre of the building offering an uninterrupted view with the floor-to ceiling glass windows. The resort’s lush garden, the swimming pools, the El Lagoi Beach Club and the one-km long beach unfolded before me.

An ocean-hued wall across the bed contrasted nicely with the natural wood flooring. Pops of blue appeared on the bedside table and the soft, blue-grey striped cushion on the wooden chair, all echoing the colours of the sea and the surrounding greenery.

The king-sized, signature Four Comfort Bed was something I really enjoyed. The multi-layered, luxurious bedding was comfortably firm, providing a great balance of comfort and support, and together with the down pillows that supported my head and neck nicely, I slept like a baby.

The bathroom is quite spacious – while there was no bathtub, the water pressure in the shower was powerful. I liked the huge mirror with an integrated magnifying section, too.

F&B
Rempah Kitchen is the hotel’s signature all-day dining outlet. The restaurant highlights the diversity of Indonesian cuisine, along with some Asian and international dishes on its menu.

The breakfast buffet had a wide spread – from the eggs station and pancake and waffles selection to the instant noodles corner and popcorn machine. The laksa was perfect, I could taste the wok-hey in the fried rice, but my favourite was the omelette in curry sauce – it was savoury, creamy, albeit a little bit spicy.

The chef prepared a special lunch menu for me and my travel companions, comprising of dishes from Sumatra, Java and some other parts of the country. The restaurant is also famous for its Salmon Lodeh – traditionally a vegetable dish cooked in a slow-simmering coconut milk, this one has salmon added to the soupy dish.
