Batam trip on 25th July to 28th.
Rented a scooter for whole trip. Went to eat at Tg Piayu Rumah Makan Seafood Jawa Melayu. Very cheap only around 300k for 2 pax.around 35 mins ride from Nagoya.

Also went to One Seafood Marina on 2nd day which is somewhere enar Bt Aji. The cheapest sea humm and gonggong ever. 1kg for 40k to 50k cooked depends on cooking style. 3rd day went to Next Level Koffie and Beachfront Bar at Bengkong. Very nice place to relax and chill by the beach. Have horse riding too during daytime.

Hello there, just to share with you on my past experiences on my batam trips. Im not a guru, just my 2 cents.

To start off, just bring along your passport on yourself at all times.

There is soo much that batam can offer in terms of vice but its mostly vanilla services. So 2d1n is actually pretty ideal, im actually going over on coming 12, 13 October too.

With regards to a place to sleep, I dont think it matters much if you're intending to go to hallo kitty/octopuss as your deed will be dome there and then. HK does have outcall but its by another agent who in a way collab with them, the price point is on the higher end, so if you wanna get overnight bookings, there are plenty of cheaper options around.

The best thing about is their spas which provides double hj, this is the best of value in terms of looks/ money spent in across SEA. There are plenty of such spas mentioned in this thread, so pick your poison.

Hope you have an enjoyable trip, cheers.

I personally always stay in Hotel, since I'm really only there for business, when I go out, i always leave my passport in the hotel. simply because I can be quite forgetful and just leave it outside, also, i always worry that it might drop out if i pull other things from my pocket, or it might drop out by itself if i stand and sit a lot, so I just leave it in the hotel to be safe.
I personally don't think there's much they can do if hotel people steal your passport, our passport's photos are hard printed on to the card of the passport, villains cannot do much with it really, it's not like passports from the 1990s.

As for Airbnb, I think you should also keep it there too. The chance of forgetting it is just too high. at least if you don't take it out, even if you can't find it, you know it's in the hotel/airbnb, or someone came in to steal and you can have a way to redress it, but if you lose it while outside, you have to retrace all the places you've been, which i feel is more troublesome.

if you're really worried, just keep the passport in your luggage and lock it up and leave the whole thing in the hotel/airbnb.

I cannot disagree more and I warn everyone to never do so.

The hotel room, even more the safe, is by far the SAFEST PLACE where to keep the passport, additional credit cards, documents, etc.
The probability of having the passport stolen, or just lose it, is much higher if we have it in our purse outside the hotel, than in the hotel room (better the hotel safe box).
Losing the passport abroad is a nightmare. That simply cannot happen.

Virgin Trip FR

16/9 Took ferry from Pasir Gudang cost for return ticket after redbus voucher is Rm130. There is total Rm25 & rp100k seaport tax. Booked biz hotel for 2 nights costs rm220 on agoda. Booked a Toyota Agya for a day at rp300k. Umobile rm68 has seamless roaming.

Supir delivered the car right after arrival at harbour bay. Then checked in at Biz Hotel then straight to hunting. Before that, tried thier latest McD burger egg sambal beef burger. It was a good combination. Stopped by Hallo Kitty, Octopuss, Heraa Place & Sri Kandy. Quoted overnight price is 1.8jt - 2.5jt.

My main objective was to visit Sintai. After watching many videos from Oby****69. Stopped by for dinner at SteakCorner Batam. Prices were too cheap. Had wagyu steak at rp120k. Then made the intense 50mins journey to Sintai.

At rp300k per hour, the girls there are very decent. There is almost 50 girls to choose from. The first girl I took allowed me to CIM. GFE was superb, showered before & after action. Tipped her rp50k and she became so grateful. Then saw a skinny petite girl in tight skirt. Told the mamasan, I wanted to drink first before action. Bought 3 big bintang at 180k and tipped mamasan 20k. Nicely raba-raba her and her skirt hahaha. GFE was superb as I speak fluent Malay. Then she start to touch my brother and quickly directed me to her kamar. I told her I wanted to bang her in her skirt and she obliged. After action, she cleaned me up and I tipped her 100k and left. Mamasan offered me 1.3jt for overnight.

The next day, I was hoping to meet some members but no luck. Decided to go HW dragon bar. Ordered beer at rp320k and had a long chat with the bartender. Was expecting a cewek to entertain me instead the time past quickly chatting with the bartender. Returned to biz hotel with Grab motor at rp8k. The next day returned to pasir gudang to conclude journey.

Any members going anywhere. I would like to join you guys. Thanks
