Notice something wrong here? Edit Business Info
Great spot to get away...it's affordable... the rooms and hotel appear to have been renovated and the furnishings are great...the resort is right on the beach and if you want to spoil yourself they have villas, disappointing going to the seafood restaurant and only frozen prawns available and NO lobster...the staff wear bright yellow tops and smiles...the buffets are tasty and plenty...worth a return trip.

Batam is a cheap getaway destination... However Batam View Beach Resort is DEFINATELY NOT my choice... There are better choice...
As most of the resorts are away from the shopping mall, the resort will have buses to go there... They will charged a small and reasonable amount.
I went with my extended family. In total, there's 8 ppl. So when I went to comfirm my seat on the bus, they told us was fully booked... They recomend me another way, by the taxi which was much expensive.
As it's really very ex, I dropped off the idea of going to the shopping mall... My whole family juz sat at the lobby deciding wat to do next...
Minutes later, I went over to the counter to ask what are the available facitilies that we can use... I over heard a couple making reservation for the bus ride to the shopping mall...
It's obvious that they are trying to make me spent more money by hiring a cab... =(
- I should continue my story -
Being me... I will NOT stomach this. I confronted the front desk and make hell lots of noise... In the end... all 7 of them went to the shopping mall... I choose not to go and did a spa package instead...
Anyway I feel that HARRIS is much better than Batam View
P.S. Did I mention the boss of Batam View is a Singaporean?
