Seasports lovers not recommended during December time due to the Monsoon season. Travel round by bus to Oleh Oleh is cheap though the things there are expensive, but food is Ok with not much to choose from. Kelong at Sebong was good especially the Pepper crabs. Going round on the Buddy car on your own was nice but the rate very expensive.

Bintan is a great place to get away from it all. Restaurants in the resorts offer a wide selection of foods at reasonable prices.

The main restuarant at the hotel, SPICE - had a good spread of local and western dishes. The shuttle service ferries you between the three hotels in the Nirwana compound, so you pretty much have facilities, food and fun fully covered.

The beach was superb, although the water is certainly not as blue and clear as they would have you believe in the adverts. But the surf was great fun!
I would not recommend the Pasir Oleh Oleh 'traditional village' which was nothing but a series of shops selling very touristy stuff. If authenticity is what you want, rent a jeep/car and explore further a field in Bintan.
There was nothing great about the Kelong restaurant; food was OK but pricey.

We took one tour that we highly recommend: it was a night boat tour of a mangrove "swamp." The trees on the riverside were filled with twinkling fireflies, giving a Christmas-like feel to a tropical setting. It was magical and my seven-year old son loved it.
There was one restaurant we highly recommend because of the fresh seafood: Kelong restaurant.
