Hey guys its been a LONG WHILE since you last see me! HHAHAAH

First of all I apologize for not blogging (this period of time) I had been busy shopping, going out .. etc.. HAHAHA LIKE VERY 'QIAN BIAN' TO SAY...

But its because my friend Jouri has finally touched down to Singapore and All along we had been going out...

He was holding my camera the whole time. So I couldn't take photos, but its okay.. I'm using the photos that he took but I was the one who edited them ^^

Okay.. So This blog post is about Turi Resorts In Batam..

Firstly I have to say...

IT WAS AWESOME !!!!

Ferry Left singapore and heading towards Batam..

IMG_3571

The ride was quite fast actually.. Like less than 40mins?!? 30mins perhaps?

IMG_3584

Ohya when you reached the ferry terminal in Batam uh... The first thing you will see after you step out is 3 counters, with 3 different resorts...

AND TURI BEACH'S COUNTER WAS THE BEST-LOOKING ONE...

The other 2 looks like hotel 81, worse than that. ROFL ... HENG AH HENG AH!!

Then we took the shuttle bus to the resorts.... This was taken in the bus.. hahahaha

IMG_3586

I was the one settling the hotel check in .. etc all the sai kang too. HAHAHAHAHAHAA SO PROUD OF MYSELF.. LOL

Service so good! They even gave all the customers Ginger Drinks... But taste a bit spicy eh.. LOL

So We reached early and there was still time to slack around before check in.. We headed for Breakfast...

So for such a nice cafe... with such a nice buffet.. The price confirm not cheap la hor?

AND WORSE OF ALL..

WE DIDN'T KNOW THE PRICE... LOL!!! (Actually the prices are stated outside the cafe but we didn't notice)

So we ate without knowing the price. and it was our first experience there...

So when the bill came...

IMG_3654

DANG DANG DANG DANGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG...

I was like. WTF IS THIS....

But don't worry la its Rupiah's

Only

The means one person $20+ nia... I gave them SGD$5 tips okay! cannot throw singaporean's face. HAHAHAHA

This restaurant CHEAP & NICE.. I RECOMMEND YOU GUYS TO EAT THERE!! I WOULD PERSONALLY RATE IT

4/5



Okay Back to the ENVIRONMENT of the resorts uh.. When we reached the lobby of the resort I was like. hmmm not bad lol BUT LOOK :

IMG_3597

THIS WAS THE FUCKING RESORT... DAMM NICE...

IMG_3599

The rooms were built in between trees like a treehouse...

WE WERE PRAYING TO GET INTO THIS SIDE OF THE RESORT! Because there was apparently - TWO WINGS.. LOL

We were in the Tirta wing...


HENG AH RIANI WING UNDER RENOVATION. LOL

IMG_3603

They even have a small side pool bar...

IMG_3606

There were also these little huts there for you to sit.. but - MY ADVICE IS DON'T SIT BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF INSECTS & LIZARDDDDS!!

IMG_3608

Went to the beach... weather was not bad !!

IMG_3614

Saw that bridge and immediately thought of camwhoring there right after we check in and put our baggage in the room!

IMG_3612

See this peace looking... (only appearance) small island. LATER I WILL EXPLAIN WHY ONLY APPEARANCE. LOL

IMG_3618

Michelle looking into the camera.. HAHAHA While I was looking and searching to see if this was our wing. LOL KIA SU..

IMG_3620

The environment really dammm awesome...

I would like to live there for a day... LOL

Okay la finally we checked into the room.. AND IT WAS THE WING THAT WE PRAYED FOR. LOL

IMG_3856

Michelle was mad tired (Okay photos of the room were taken on the next day)

IMG_3855

A small chat area... and behind the mirror is our fridge... REALLY CAN OPEN ONE LEH..

IMG_3859

The balcony... with a not bad view of the sea.. hahahah

IMG_3867

Got TV! LOL


IMG_3899

There's the water boiler and free bottles of mineral water. LOL

IMG_3872

What I'm very particular about a place is the TOILET... and this room's toilet I shall say its satisfying.. Firstly its clean... and there's a nice toilet bowl.. LOL

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - HAIR DRYER. LOL

IMG_3881

They even provided tooth brushes and tooth pastes. LOL Hand soap etc..

IMG_3885

A top shower head...

IMG_3886

A small shower head..

No bath tub sadly.. LOL

IMG_3889

Body , hair and conditioner wash was provided too! hahaha


The bad thing about our room was that...

IMG_3897

Our air con spoiled & WATER HEATER SPOILED..

I bathed 5 times there... and all 5 times in cold water.. We didn't complain or what la.. because its just a day's stay...


Sadly after exploring the room, it rained....

IMG_3770

So we slacked a bit LOL..... Rain awhile only like 2hours... Then the weather was very cooling....

Went out for a shoot...

THAT WAS THE MAIN PURPOSE.. But you know what? There was too many mosquitoes until we gave up in the end.. We headed over to that small island... THE MOSQUITOES THERE LIKE ARMY TROOP LIKE THAT ONE... SO MANY..... Michelle got biten like 10+ bites after a 10 min shoot. and we decided to give up...

BUT WE STILL HAD SOME PHOTOS LA....

IMG_3680

I look like I'm advertising something.. LOL

IMG_3687

Michelle, and if you realize, HER DOUBLE EYELIDS VERY THICK HOR??

She did plastic Surgery at Thekife's Clinic. LOL

IMG_3691

If you're wondering she was looking at those rocks... I wanted to shoot there but the rocks were too slippery... Really.. very very slippery almost fell !

AND ITS VERY DIRTY WITH LIKE FUNGUS ON IT!!

IMG_3698

One super chio photo that I liked :D

IMG_3713

Okay I posted this photo because its funny Like advising in ZOO LOL

IMG_3726

Michelle.. at the freaking mosquito island... 2$#%$$@%ewwgey%@$%!# !!!!

IMG_3745

My Opinion is - ITS NOT A GOOD PLACE TO DO A SHOOT.. REALLY NO GOOD MOSQUITOES LIKE KNN MANY...

If you're wondering why Only got me & michelle's photos no have jouri's is because he haven't finish editing them! I will upload it once he is done :D

We headed over to the pool after the shoot because the mosquito bites were too itchy... Water could cool us off ! lol

IMG_3763

IMG_3767
