Day 1:

P/s: for those who wanted to buy any deal from groupon please check the term and conditional first before purchasing.


Breakfast before our ferry! 

One group photo together before boarding the ferry.

Here we go! 

  Here we are at Batam's Nongsapura terminal after a 35 mins ferry ride.

A picture at the ferry terminal.

Here we are at the Turi Beach Resort. What a huge and empty lobby they have. I guess not many people is there since it's a weekday.


Resort has the rock climbing facility! 

Our room.


Booked a car to bring us around. While waiting for our car out for lunch and spa, picture time again! This is what a group of girls will do when traveling, picture, picture and more picture!

A&W is a must whenever we come Batam. Lunch at Mega Mall before our facial.



Head to Natasha at Mega Mall Batam Center for our facial! 



After facial, next to our 2 hour spa massage at Win's Spa!
Please Visit www.winsspa.com for more details.

A room by myself!

After spa massage, its the hair spa time! (at Win's Spa too) 

My head is on fire! 

Local snacks that Wilma, Wanyu and Miyuki went out to buy while waiting for Teresa, Liyana and me to finish our hair spa ( not enough manpower so only 3 of us manage to do the hair spa ).

Ask the driver to bring us to supermarket to buy some local snacks for us to party in the resort and also to bring back home after all our spa treatment.

It's dinner time! Seafood dinner at Golden Prawn 933. Basically there is no other place to have seafood dinner, so this is the standard place where everyone will come for seafood.

Choosing our seafood. 



They sell bird's nest too!

Live band and singing while we having our dinner.



Our "6 course" dinner!










Happy with our super full dinner!


Back to resort but stay at lobby to use their WIFI cause there is no WIFI in the room. Look at those bags of food we bought back from the super mart!


Day 2:

Good Morning! Look at that gloomy sky... it also represent our mood... cause our holiday is ending soon...

We decided to spend our day in the resort and not going anywhere before our ferry back home.

Another side of the resort.

Their private jetty.




Group photo at the jetty!

Happy time!

Group photo again!


Playing with multi self-timer shot! It was normal for the 1st shot...

and then we went a little crazy after 10 shot... 

and a little violent after 20 shot! Haha!

Heading to the pool now!

selfie time!

The resort pool!




There is only us at the pool until this cute little boy came.

And they start playing with this little boy, Jasper from Australia.

Jasper doesn't seems to like Wanyu and wanted her to leave him alone! HAHA!

After some swim, Jasper's dad ask us to babysit him for awhile while he go grab some lunch for him.

Doing the Jasper smile!

Hand Jasper back to his dad and its our time to relax one corner.

Saw people playing para-ski at the resort! Too bad we need to go back already. Went back to our room to bath and pack and ready to leave the resort. 

Last view from our room. Bye Batam!
