Bintan Island Indonesia

Had a big party of 12 for 4D3N w 8 adults, kiddos (2 below 2) and the experience was A M A Z I N G.

Our first time w Clubmed and honestly we weren't expecting much. But... just by mid day of our first day... we were already so impressed by the staff's enthusiasm and genuineness.
From Julien the GM, to the counter/bar/coffee staff, to the servers, to the activities instructors, to the childcare (petit club and mini club) all the way to the housekeepers.... they are all full on always smiling and saying hi to us everywhere and the time. Several staff were literally everywhere and anywhere all at once - from conducting classes, taking care of our kids in the morning to performing for the shows at night. Oh... the shows and activities at night... were seriously solid. Remix show was hilarious, the circus performance and candy carnival. They made Clubmed bintan feel like a fun place to work in and be in - truly making our stay so memorable.

Room was great, cleanliness of housekeeping was also top notch.

Special shout out to a few staff -
Clarissa, Anne - activities instructors
Yudha - food staff
Ari - coffee @ L4
All the staff at the petit and mini clubmed - Sheeba, Syasha, Fida, Dimas. kimi, Angel, Zan, Melani, Liz, Eva, Tariq, Gus, Eryan. Special shoutout to the petit club teachers Fida and I can't rmb another lady's name, but she's slim and has extremely long hair.

Thank you everybody for making my family's trip so so so so memorable and amazing.
Absolutely no regrets at all for choosing Clubmed Bintan!

My family of 12 headed to Club Med Bintan over the March holidays—and to be honest, I went in with pretty low expectations. With two young kids, I assumed it would be just another tiring trip where I’d come back needing a holiday from the holiday. I didn’t do much research… but wow, I was so wrong. I ended up enjoying it so much.

Main highlights from our 4D3N stay:

1. Sports activities
   I joined a cardio session with Clarissa—she was so bubbly and made the entire workout genuinely fun.
   Tried aerial yoga (twice!) with Beverly for the first time—clear instructions, super encouraging, and we felt so proud pulling off the moves.
   Archery with Anne was another highlight—her guidance made it easy and enjoyable.
   We also attended a beginner tennis class with Kevin under the hot sun. We got seriously tanned, but it was absolutely worth it.

2. KIDS CLUB 🌟🌟
   Honestly, thank you Kids Club team. You took such great care of my children and gave us the space to enjoy some downtime. My daughter cried at drop-off, but I came back to two happy kids excitedly sharing about their day—trapeze, swimming, arts and crafts… they even had meals with new friends. That alone made the trip.

3. Coffee Bar (Level 4)
   We loved the coffee selection—cold brew, latte, flat white, even cold brew with Irish cream. Great coffee, beautiful breeze, amazing view. And the cookies? So good. Shoutout to Ari and the team!

4. Night shows & activities
   Each night was something special—live shows with top hits, a beach dinner with trapeze and fireworks, and a Candyland-themed night to wrap it up. Everything was so family-friendly and inclusive—both kids and adults had the best time. My kids stayed up way past bedtime, but totally worth it.
   Special mention to Julien, the resort manager—his energy was next level. Always present, hosting, dancing, and really bringing the whole place to life. The G.O. team created such a fun, vibrant atmosphere.

Overall
I went in as a tired mum expecting very little—but came back feeling refreshed, recharged, and genuinely happy. Would absolutely return to Club Med Bintan again. Thank you for such a memorable family holiday 💛

I travelled to Club Med Bintan in January with my two daughters and we had a wonderful stay. The setting is stunning and the whole resort has a relaxed island feel that makes it very easy to switch off.

One thing to be aware of is that there were renovations happening during our visit, so there was some construction noise during the day. January is also typhoon season, which meant the ocean wasn’t safe for swimming while we were there. That was a little disappointing given how beautiful the beach is, though the pool is excellent and we still spent plenty of time enjoying it.

The food was fantastic with a large buffet and lots of variety. My daughters absolutely loved the kids club and all the activities throughout the day. It gave them a chance to make friends and have their own fun while still being in a safe environment.

A highlight for us was the spa. The girls and I went twice because it was so relaxing and beautifully set up.
What really stood out though was the staff. Everyone was friendly, energetic and genuinely welcoming. Their positive attitude made the whole experience feel special.

When it was time to leave, my daughters didn’t want to go. Months later they’re still talking about going back, which probably says everything.

Tips for other travellers:
If ocean swimming is important to you, check the season and weather conditions before booking.

Renovations may be happening depending on when you visit, so it’s worth asking ahead.

If you’re travelling with kids, the kids club is excellent and a real highlight for families.

Overall we had a fantastic family holiday and made some really special memories.

Club med is just beyond epic. Never done club med before, it’ll be hard to holiday with any other company now.

This is our second visit and we love it even more. Every family member had good fun. We enjoyed the food and all the performances at the theatre. Mini club is so good my kids love it. The members there are Dimas, Sheeba, Syasya, Fida, Kimi, Angel, Zan, Melani, Liz, Eva, Tariq, Gus, Eryan.
