Hope i can manage my resting time every night, because i have a simply ridiculous uneven working hours.. T.T And i have no mood to think again after reach home.. I really precious my short sleeping hours.. :'(
Last month, we had a chance to visit the Multi-Award Winning Resort at Nongsa Area, Batam, Indonesia.. Yes, i think from the post subject you all know this famous resort already.. Lots of bloggers wrote review about this resort, pls google it if you would like to know further, there are some good and bad experiences.. But for us, so far staying at Montigo Resort has been a really nice experience.. We love to stay in a nice resort, spend our precious time together on the resort, chill out by the private pool, enjoy the resort hospitality and exploring facilities they offer and of course enjoy taking lots of photos..
We book Montigo Resort staycation for 2D1N at agoda.com. You can also book direct on their website montigoresorts.com. Or if you happen to see promotion on Groupon, you can also consider it. Book for 4 pax consider cheaper than book for 2 pax.. Each villa can be occupied by max 4pax and if you have additional person, you have to pay slightly more. Montigo Resort having few types of villa: Hill Side Villa, Hill Top Villa, Sea Front Villa and Spa Villas..

Floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the coast and offer breathtaking sunset views of the South China Sea.

There are few restaurant around the resort, one restaurant served all-day dining and the other served seafood dining as well as served for cocktails and dining by the pool. They also provide in-villa dining where you can also request for BBQ set up on your villa (with additional fee).
Well, for us, we brought our own food and cooked ourselves in the villa kitchen, cooked a simple spaghetti, not much things inside but hubby liked it.. LOL! Just make sure to clean every kitchen utensils before you using those.. They also give complimentary mini-bar where we can find soft-drink inside.
