<p>Singapore-based Cenizaro Hotels &amp; Resorts turned heads in early 2018 when it opened its first Indonesian outpost on the island of Bintan, a mere 55-minute catamaran ferry ride across the water from the brand’s home city. Situated on the less-trammeled southeastern coastline of the island, The Residence Bintan makes for a quieter alternative to the resorts dotting the popular north shore. Holidaymakers who embark on the scenic hourlong transfer from the ferry terminal will be rewarded with barefoot luxury and a true sense of seclusion.</p>
<p>Here, traditional Indonesian touches grace the 127 clean-lined rooms, suites, and villas. These comprise 80 one-bedroom Vista and Garden Terraces, which feature either a ground-floor patio or an expansive balcony; 22 beachfront villas and 15 Deluxe Sea View villas, all with their own private pool; and a quartet of two-bedroom villas that offer even more space and direct access to the beach. Many of the accommodations also come with plush four-poster king beds.</p>
<p>After spending hours stretched out on a sun lounger by the infinity pool or at the resort’s private beach, guests at The Residence Bintan can look forward to authentic Indonesian dishes and pan-Asian favorites at signature restaurant Rica Rica. Not far away, the Dining Room serves international cuisine and satisfying buffet breakfasts, while Pool Bar has a menu of refreshing drinks and light bites such as pomelo salad. Elevated dining experiences include a barbecue dinner near the beach and a private meal on a wooden deck perched just above the waves.</p>

<p>The healing properties of native ingredients are harnessed at the spa, whose treatments blend modern techniques with ancient know-how. Then there’s Earth Basket, an on-site organic farm where gardeners grow more than 30 kinds of herbs and vegetables. Another hit with younger guests is Kakatu Kids Club, thanks to its range of fun-filled activities.</p>
<p>Keen to get out on the water? Kayaks and stand-up paddleboards are available, and you can book snorkeling and diving excursions as well as castaway picnics on the nearby isle of Pulau Mapur.</p>
