Club Med Bintan Island Resort Stay Day 3: 19 July 2015, Sunday
地中海俱乐部民丹岛之旅第三天:7月19日2015年, 星期天


The third and last day of our stay at Club Med Bintan Island Resort was a Sunday. What do you do on Sundays? Sleep in of course! But then again, there was a whole spread of breakfast waiting for us. We got up just a little bit later than the day before and took a stroll along the beach, listening to the waves and enjoying the cool morning breeze.

We then went to the Terrace restaurant, just like for the past few meals. We piled up our plates with noodles, eggs, hash browns, bacon, sausages and got milk and fruits to go along. A satisfying breakfast.

Momo's breakfast.

Orange's breakfast.

After breakfast, we came across a bocce ball or pétanque court near the main building and decided to give it a try. We had never played this game before and found it quite interesting. However we got bored of it quickly and decided to head towards the beach once again.

It really is a giant version of gor lee (marbles).

Who could have made these mini balls of sand all over the beach?

It is almost like crop circles made of sand.

After the leisurely stroll at the beach, we went to the main building to make some check out procedures. The Korean GO who did the Gangnam Style dance in the previous night was manning the counter. After that, we went to the archery range to enjoy our last activity at the resort. Seemed like I had not lost my touch. Archery is a sport that tests your hand-eye coordination, breathing technique, and of course the strength of your arms. And with that last activity, we proceeded to the Terrace for the final time for our last meal in Club Med Bintan Island Resort. Sounds sad...

Haven't played archery for quite some time.

There were many exotic dishes handcrafted by the master chefs of Terrace restaurant. It was like fine dining and buffet all at once. The desserts were once again hard to resist. Who could resist such beautiful and tasty-looking dishes and desserts?

Had some prata, pasta, rice.

Thai Squid Salad

Minced Duck and Coriander Salad

Last chance to eat lots of meat before we head home.

This should be the last top up.

Plenty of desserts still await us...

And many more...

It's better to have some fruits.

And ice-cream!

We made our last exploration around the resort right after lunch. We found the children's playrooms and other activity areas. This Club Med resort is really family-oriented and well suited for families with many kids. They do not have to worry about not being able to enjoy themselves because they have to look after their kids, simply because your kids will be taken care of by the GOs and get to participate in all kinds of activities catered specially for kids of their age. There is the Petit Club (for toddlers 2 to 3), Mini Club (ages 4 to 10) and Kids Club (ages 4 to 17). What's best is kids under 4 stay for free! We will certainly return to Club Med again with our little ones next time.

A mini stage for the kids to do some performance it seems.

These rooms cater to kids of different ages for some activities.

There is even a playground.

Kids are divided into Kids Club, Mini Club and Petit Club, based on their age.

And soon, the inevitable had to happen. It's time to leave! Once again, the GOs lined up the entrance all the way to our coach and gave us a warm sending off. After we boarded our coach, the GOs also lined the path a distance from the building entrance, where finally the village chief, Jessie, stood right at the end to wave us goodbye. Now that's VIP treatment.

And their signature wave again.

It was a short trip back to the ferry point, where we took the ferry back to Singapore with unwilling hearts. But we know for sure we would definitely return to this wonderful resort again in the near future. Thank you Club Med Bintan Island for your warm hospitality!
