This place is truly incredible. We are on our honeymoon, and sadly it’s our last night. I’ve never done a Facebook recommendation but have to put some notice out there for Bawah. The views/ scenery are obviously magnificent. But what separates this place is the staff is so kind, and the food is phenomenal. Everything here is top notch! Thanks for having us! Hope to be back in the near future!!

We just spent an idyllic 5 days here. The rooms are perfect, the staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. You can do as much or as little as you like, or mix it up like we did. Snorkelling kayaking, walking, rejuvenating ourselves in the spa, learning more about the ecology and the architecture was very enlightening too. The best of all was just wandering barefoot through the magnificent sand to the various restaurants where the food and service is 2nd to none. The seaplane transfer was another tick off our bucket list. It’s a fabulous place that we highly recommend

Bawah Reserve is more than the ‘tags’ above. It is the ultimate island getaway. In the middle of nowhere. Stunning water. Incredible architecture- rustic, chic, stylish, super spacious. Beautiful bathrooms. Amazing clear sea great for swimming. Food. Spa. Yoga. Qi gong. Pilates. Sailing. Hiking. Snorkelling. Kayaking. The most romantic picnics on your own beach. The service is immaculate. They are generous & they hand hold & fast track you through the loops of getting from Singapore to Batam where you board your seaplane for Bawah. You are a castaway in Paradise. The 80 minute seaplane flight is wonderful. Highly recommended anytime you need to celebrate together or need a super recharging, relaxing getaway. They are also environment & conservation attuned with a big shout out to community programming. Check out their permaculture & reef rehab set ups when you are there.

The most amazing service that you can imagine. The staff were fantastic. Great food and wine and the website does not so it justice. It’s one of the most beautiful places I have visited. Make sure you visit one day. ????????

This is a must do! I don’t need to talk about the beauty of Bawah; the comfort of the villas be they beach or water; the creativity and quality of food particularly bearing in mind the isolation of the island; or the luxury of being able to remove yourself from the real world for just a while, because the many photographs of Bawah do that for themselves. A stay at Bawah is undoubtedly a luxury holiday but without realising, it almost from the moment you get your first glimpse of the islands from the seaplane, it embraces you in what I now realise is an experience in mindfulness. And I definitely don’t mean you need to sit and meditate, far from it there is too much to see and do for that! However the whole ethos of sustainability, impact on the environment, and leave only footprints, take only memories thinking is what sets Bawah apart from other destinations. I feel those who had the vision and those who are striving to achieve it should also be mentioned, it feels like a family welcoming you to their home who just want to make sure you have the best time whilst stopping with them, and you go away wanting to come back soon. If this appeals to you then don’t hesitate get there fast you won’t be disappointed!

I stayed 4 nights in Bawah, wonderful eco - friendly island I have never been before. Bawah has also another 5 small islands around: Batu Kotong, Muerba, Sangga, Elang, Lidi and 3 lagoons where we can snorkel and dive, many beautiful coral and a lot of fishes. The Beach Suite is recommended because of its nice sea view, just 5 footsteps to the beach. There are a lot of activities you can join: snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, sailing, paddle boarding, hiking, picnic and 6 islands tour…, they are all – inclusive (except scuba diving). The activity’s team: Didi, Kite, Suryadi were very friendly and extremely helpful during our stay, giving us information about 6 islands, instructing my husband how to dive in the reefs. Our host Choi was friendly and always available; helped us arranging a private picnic at Turtle Beach with lunch, a romantic private dinner at the beach in front of Boat House, all were wonderful! The food was also excellent, all our dinners were tailored by Chef Omar. His pumpkin soup with seafood is highly recommended, it’s really tasty! We also loved the spa so much. All treatments were excellent. 4 nights seem not enough for us, we totally love this island and definitely come back for longer stay. We are also introducing Bawah to many our friends because we are the first Vietnamese there. Hope more Vietnamese people will visit Bawah in the future. Thanks for your kind and take-care during our stay in Bawah! Nguyen & Tong

it was a rare opportunity to stumble on a piece of gem so close to Singapore .. an experience that will remain in our memory forever. This eco-friendly, well preserved destination is here to stay and sets very high benchmark for future resort developers, owners to consider building luxury resorts that will at the same time educate the community about conservation and help battle global environmental issues ..
