🇮🇩Bintan Getaway with friends 🏖️🏖️
#grouptravel
In a long weekends last year, me and my friends get to go for a short trip at Bintan. It was just one hour ferry ride from Singapore. Here are some highlights of the 2d1n trip:
1. Where to stay:
📍Grand Lagoi Hotel, Bintan
(Jalan Gurindam Duabelas Plot 27 & 29, Sebong Lagoi, Bintan Island, Kabupaten Bintan, Kepulauan Riau 29155, Indonesia)
🥪For the free breakfast, the buffet features a wide range of international and local dishes, catering to all palates and dietary preferences.
🏊 To me, the hotel's rooftop is a standout feature, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding area. Me and my friends had a fun time swimming there and there’s no crowd! The rooftop at Grand Lagoi Hotel provides a picturesque escape above the island’s lush landscape.
2. Where to go:
Just a short walk away, we arrived at this nearby Lagoi beach which is known for its crystal-clear waters and soft sands, making it an excellent spot for swimming, sunbathing, and various water sports. We had a fun evening there. We visited Blue Lake too. It is around 15mins drive away. 💙
3. What to eat:
🦐 Ciu Yong Seafood
The seafood dinner was amazing! We love the freshness of the seafood and most of the dishes taste really good. At an affordable price we are really satisfied with it.
Although we only travel for 2 days 1 night, all of us were truly happy and enjoyed the trip. Bintan is definitely a suitable place for people who just want a short getaway from the city life!

🥪We enjoyed a complimentary breakfast buffet every morning, which included a wide variety of delicious options that catered to all tastes.
🍗 For dinner, we arranged for a BBQ on top of our villa, which was expertly set up by the resort staff. Grilling with the backdrop of the ocean and under the stars was a memorable dining experience that added to the luxury of our stay.

Amazing place in Thailand 🇹🇭
#songkran2024
Just got back from an incredible getaway to Koh Chang in Thailand! 🏝️☀️ This beautiful island, located in the Gulf of Thailand, is a true tropical paradise with its pristine beaches, lush jungle interior, and vibrant marine life. Best of all, there's no entrance fee to visit the island—just hop on a ferry and you're there! ⛴️🌴
As soon as I stepped off the ferry and onto Koh Chang's shores, I was blown away by the sheer beauty of the island. The turquoise waters lapping against the powdery white sand beaches were picture-perfect, and the swaying palm trees completed the idyllic scene. 🌊🌴
During my stay, I had the chance to explore some of Koh Chang's top attractions. One of my favorites was Klong Plu Waterfall, a stunning cascade nestled within the island's lush jungle. The short hike to reach the waterfall was well worth it, and I even took a refreshing dip in the natural pool at the base of the falls. 🏞️💦
For a taste of adventure, I went snorkeling off the coast of Koh Chang and was amazed by the colorful coral reefs and diverse marine life that I encountered beneath the waves. 🐠🐢 And in the evenings, I enjoyed strolling along the bustling beachfront promenade, where I sampled delicious seafood dishes and watched the sunset over the horizon. 🌅🍤
Nearby attractions include Koh Chang's sister islands, such as Koh Mak and Koh Kood, which are equally beautiful and worth exploring. ⛵️🏝️ And for those seeking a bit of relaxation, there are plenty of tranquil beach resorts and spas where you can unwind and recharge. 🧖♀️🌺
Overall, my time on Koh Chang was a dream come true, and I can't wait to return someday soon! 🌟🇹🇭 #KohChang #Thailand #TropicalParadise #IslandGetaway

Adventures in the Heart of Santorini
My recent escape to Santorini, Greece, was a journey into a picturesque paradise known for its stunning sunsets, azure waters, and captivating charm. Even though it's in a different country, Santorini is an accessible destination from Birmingham, offering an unforgettable island experience.
Santorini's #IslandSplendor is evident from the moment you arrive. The island's signature white-washed buildings with blue-domed roofs create a postcard-perfect setting. The town of Oia is particularly renowned for its mesmerizing sunsets, which are best enjoyed from the cliffside vantage points.
Exploring the island, I discovered beautiful beaches with crystal-clear waters, such as Red Beach and Perissa Beach. Water activities like snorkeling and sailing are also popular options for those seeking a bit of adventure.
Santorini is steeped in history, and a visit to the ancient ruins of Akrotiri provides a glimpse into the island's past. The archaeological site is often referred to as the "Minoan Pompeii."
Greek cuisine is a highlight of any visit to Santorini. Local tavernas offer delicious dishes like moussaka, souvlaki, and fresh seafood. Pair your meal with a glass of Assyrtiko, a unique Santorinian wine.
For a more relaxed experience, consider visiting in the shoulder seasons of spring or autumn when the weather is pleasant, and the crowds are smaller. During the summer months, the island can get quite busy.
In conclusion, Santorini's blend of natural beauty, rich history, and culinary delights make it an ideal escape. Whether you're a romantic seeking sunsets or an adventurer exploring the Aegean, Santorini has something magical to offer. #SantoriniParadise #IslandGetaway
