Thank you for the excellent video. Like many others, I had not heard of this resort before. For me, this option is only interesting in combination with Singapore. As a contrast between urban life and nature. But if I'm only going to have a beach vacation, then for the same money I'll choose the St. Regis in Bora Bora. I found the nature and underwater world of Polynesia more beautiful, and the service a little higher. You had a video from the Brando resort in Polynesia. It's roughly the same concept: a secluded island hotel. Which is better, Indonesia or Polynesia

Kalau cuma tempat seperti ini di Indonesia juga banyak dan jauh lebih cantik dan menarik. Termasuk di desa kecil tempat Saya tinggal yaitu di NTT, lebih tepatnya lagi di Kab. Bajawa Kec. Riung. Disini kami punya gugusan Pulau kecil yang namanya 17 pulau dengan pasir putih membentang dan di tempat kami ini Anda akan melihat kelelawar yang pulang ke pulau lain ketika sore hari yang mungkin jumlahnya itu ratusan ribu kelelawar dan ketika pagi muncul mereka datang lagi ke pulau kelelawar. Sungguh desa kecil tempat Saya di lahirkan sangat indah.

Yes, it's beautiful and unique place, but nowhere near close to the price they ask. When I watch similar videos I try to guess the price per night. Sometimes my guesses go higher, sometimes lower, but this one was totally missed. I would pay 300-500 $ for the suite, with a big pain maybe 700 $, but the overall quality feels quite poor, you pay mostly for the views. And when I went to the hotel page the starting price for suites was 1920 $! It's absolute joke.

Omg. what's not to like This is perfect for the likes of me! So gorgeous! Far more appealing and natural than the Maldives ( sorry, Charlie) The food looks superb. so fresh! The spa is wonderful! This was a fairly regular video, and then the sunset cruise happened and suddenly this production shot to the moon! Speechless, dear LTE! What an outstanding find! Lucky you!
PS: that's a handsome fleet of float planes! Very nice!

Hi Doc, great choice, and great place. I was thinking, and when I think great ideas (at least for me) come to life. I was thinking that for TEN millions subs you should have a raffle for one of your trips. Only if you recive one as a gift from a place you've been before. That would be awesome. For both, ppl who follow your videos and for you reaching 10 Millions: D
Just an idea.

Wonderful Indonesia
Indonesia is beautiful, but what is exposed Just Bali, lombok, raja Ampat.
I'm from Metro Lampung, try going to the west coast of Lampung, the sea there is also beautiful.
Or to Ujung Kulon National Park, Banten, a combination of nature and unique and rare animals (Banten rhinoceros: one-horned rhinoceros.
Salam Banten n Lampung!

Bawah Reserve looks like pure paradise those over water villas surrounded by turquoise lagoons radiate total serenity and seclusion. The food had me drooling, especially that Lobster Benedict for breakfast and the hiking trail views were just spectacular, the whole video left me dreaming of escaping there thank you so much for another stunning review!

Wow, it’s honestly super impressive that you’re filming your videos with just an iPhone! Around minute 25: 23, you can catch a glimpse of it in the mirror, and I honestly would have thought you were using professional equipment. It’s amazing what an iPhone can do these days. Also, the hotel looks phenomenalreally top-notch quality all around!

This gives me strong luxury pricing, mid-tier execution energy. The rooms look like someone slapped a premium price tag on an eco-hut and called it exclusive. Beaches look fine, food looks meh, nothing about this screams $4k/night except the invoice. This is one of those resorts that charges you for existing far away, not for actually being good.
reply

I always watch your videos!
Can't believe the Riau Archipelago is on your radar.
Thanks for visiting one of the islands. I lived most of my life in Batam, now work in Jakarta.
This resort is even unknown for most people in Batam and only a few people could actually afford to stay there.
I hope you enjoyed your time there!

I loved the little classic jazz when you showed the bar. I dont remember you using jazz before. This hotel is on my bucket list now. Btw, this islands are on their way to becoming atolls a few more million years from now. When it happens, there will be a Funeka Tami hotel there, by Mrs Funeka and Miss Tami

This is totally my kinda place! I did check out the availability for the next year thanksgivings and they’re already sold out! Will def try for the different dates in 2026! Thank you for the another soothing and informative video, I had no idea about this place. until now.

Hi I appreciate your videos, we just returned from FS Landaa Giraavaru, largely based on your reviews! It was spectacular. Wondering how this resort compares Would love to hear your opinion, and thank you again for all your hard work!
reply

Hello Traveler,
The Getting There, to GET THERE is an adventure in itself is correct!
Maybe that was a Quarter Million Dollar Sunset Cruise, in a Million Dollar Setting! The Final Sunset Sequence was much better!

Hy Luxury Travel Expert, Batam's Hang Nadim is not the second longest runway in SE Asia. Instead, it's the 3rd, after Mandalay in Myanmar and KLIA in Malaysia. Overall, it such an amazing videos

One of the few times I can say that insomnia isn't always a bad thing haha. Contentedly immersed in this exquisite video. Thank you for sharing your travels with us!
reply

Still cannot beat the Maldives for Crystal clear blue waters and white sandy beaches imo. No other location comes close maybe Croatia with all its little islands.
reply

Amazing video, as always! You just gave me an idea for a beach escapade on my next trip to Singapore.
I will try my best to experience this unique wonder.

reply

Thank you so much for your videos. Sitting at home in a snowstorm in Chicago, just daydreaming the afternoon away with a glass of wine and your videos. A great day.
reply

Excellent video! Thanks. This place is now on my bucket list. I could seriously live there. Are there many vegetarian/vegan options Is this an all exclusive resort
