At HBF Ferry Terminal 3 shops had the following exchange rates
As advised multiple times here, exchange shops in Nagoya have better rates than at the port! Just ask in 2 or 3 of them, and take your money to the one who offers the best.
You can get a better rate than at the port even from ATMs.

e-gate for batam, sinkie can use. in case some chiongster don know
Other then Exiting Habour bay where else?
Don't think so, should be only harbour bay
After going thru manned gate on entry and registering biometrics already, try to use auto gate on exit at Harbour Bay but not successful.
Then on another recent entry, the Indo immigration staff says Sg passport holders cannot use autogate. And don't see any Sg people using autogate.
Have any Sg forumers successfully used Harbour Bay autogate - entry or exit?

If u already book Business Class then y u want to use the auto, do u know u hv to walk quite a distance to get to the auto gate. There u will not hv sticker on ur passport, which u can't refer back to show u r not in Sg and at that time u r in Btm.

Indeed, I am very puzzled by the fact that now Singapore and several other countries (one is USA) do not place a stamp on the passport anymore.
I have just got my new passport, after the previous had expired and however had only two blank pages left. My old passports are a collection of relics, stamps from all around the world, which I safeguard as a treasure. This new passport risks to expire in ten years having still many empty pages! :mad:
OK, the good thing is that now immigrating in Singapore is very quick and there are no waiting lines in front of the automate gates.
For Indonesia, I am happy to have the VOA sticker :D. (but no, not happy to pay the 500k IDR)
If u already book Business Class then y u want to use the auto, do u know u hv to walk quite a distance to get to the auto gate. There u will not hv sticker on ur passport, which u can't refer back to show u r not in Sg and at that time u r in Btm.

Makasih again!
Unless first off the boat, there is sometimes a short q at the Biz class priority q too with only 1 immigrasi officer. While there are multiple auto gates and usually a few empty. So can still be faster to walk over to auto gate to enter.
But will auto gate entry work???
Also, what is importance of having entry sticker on passport? Why need to have physical evidence of having entered Btm?

Based on this article https://expatlifeindonesia.com/batam-harbour-bay-international-port/, looks like autogate entry is akan datang.
Subki continued, that currently his party is checking and evaluating the reuse of the autogate in Harbor Bay.
“For the time being, it can be used by Indonesian citizens, either arriving or departing. In addition to Indonesian citizens, foreigners (foreign citizens) holding ITAS (limited stay permit) and Itap (permanent residence permit), can also take advantage of autogate, “he said.
Meanwhile, visa-free users for Singaporean citizens, said Subki, can also use it if they want to return to their country.
“In the future, when the evaluation period is over, we will add countries that can use autogate,” said Subki.
Meanwhile for autogate departure, still have questions. Does it work only with following conditions?
- must book online (with Horizon only? both entry and departure?)
- cannot change timing later after book online

I have a question for Singaporeans.
Imagine I arrive to Harbour Front and I am in the hurry to go to Changi. By MRT I need something more than 1 hour.
Where is the place I should go to pick a taxi?
I am used to think that grabbing a taxi in Singapore is easy, but not always.
Last year, I made the mistake of deciding to take a taxi instead of the MRT, I followed signs through Harbour Front, and I had to wait some 45 mins at a taxi stand, where taxi were coming rarely and most of the times prebooked by some phone app.
I did not miss my flight just because a nice guy let me take a taxi before him.
He said everyone calls taxi with the phone app, but if I don't have the app, wifi connection, etc., then what?
I did not understand if it was a bad day of congestion, or is it normal that at the taxi stand of Harbour Front the waiting time is so long.
Any advice, please? Thanks.

The nice guy is right - A ‘vital niche’, but flagging a cab is getting harder (https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/transport/a-vital-niche-but-flagging-a-cab-is-getting-harder).
HF has a free wifi service. So can scan for it and register, to use ride app.
If u link the app transport payment to a multi-currency e-wallet, your ride also becomes cashless at very good exchange rates.
If the app operates also in batam (eg. Grab), this cashless convenience also in batam (and other places u travel to).

Thank you very much for your very informative response.
I use Grab in Batam and KL. I did not save my credit card for cashless payment as I do with Uber, but I can do it next time.
I understand that the same Grab app will work also in Singapore. I read that Uber has ceased all operations in SEA, passing all operations to Grab.
However, the problem is that there is free wifi inside Harbour Front and Vivo City (thank you Rosfield too!), but I am not sure right outside of that, where I am supposed to wait for the car.
I hope I will not be in the emergency to rush to Changi. MRT is always the most reliable mean: it takes a bit more than 1 hour, but certainly no more than that.

If u already use Grab, u'r good to go - works in Sg too. Ya Uber has withdrawn from this region.
Better to link to a multi-currency a/c debit card/e-Wallet for best exchange rates (eg. Wise). Usual credit card exchange rates are terrible. Can also use the multi-curr a/c card for other payments for convenient cashless transactions at very decent forex rates. A lot more convenient than having to change and handle thick stacks of rupiah notes!
However, the problem is that there is free wifi inside Harbour Front and Vivo City (thank you Rosfield too!), but I am not sure right outside of that, where I am supposed to wait for the car.
Once u make the booking within wifi zone and get the vehicle number, and the vehicle shows up very close by, the Grab app will instruct u to go to pickup point - think should be ok even if wifi is lost then when u go outside to wave at the vehicle.

Once you exit from Immigration, turn left and walk towards the DBS/POSB ATM. You will see a gift shop (on the right) and Money Changer (on the left) after you passed the ATM. The exit is in front is where I usually wait for Grab.. When Booking Grab, select the pickup "Lobby C" Cruise Baggage Check-In.

Just wondering, if you are in a hurry why not take ferry from Batam to Tanah Merah Ferry terminal? or wherever you're leaving from in the Riau Islands. maybe timing isn't what you want, but it certainly can help you arrive at changi much earlier. Also, you can pre-book your grab and tell them to be at tanah merah maybe say 10-15 minutes after your arrival. Not sure how the immigration is at Tanah Merah, but my guess is it's not gonna be as bad HF on certain days and time.
So yeah. just my 2cents.

Because if I discover I am in a hurry then it's way too late to change my travel plan!! :D
I stay in Nagoya, 10 minutes from Harbour Bay => leaving from Batam Centre means a lot more time.
I buy my tickets with Horizon Ferry several weeks in advance, not the last day => changing ferry means to buy the new ticket, which takes time, and maybe there is not even availability.
From HB there is a ferry every hour or so => I can optimize my time and enjoy also my last day in Batam.
Consider that if I fly from Changi at 22:30 I take the ferry from HB at 16:30.

ABOUT BATAM
It is getting better! I was so disappointed during my visit in December. I arrived here 2 days ago and I am already overbooking my time with girls I know from previous visits and new girls met in Newton. 50% ghost after promising, so I still have 50% of them to enjoy.
Newton is not as good as before COVID, but it's getting better. There are more working girls around, and on Friday some 2 or 3 interesting enough to consider. On my first night, I came back to my hotel at 8am. Headache all day long :(
I called a SYT looking I met in December to meet me in the morning in my hotel. Guess what, she was disappointed of my offer 500k, because "I never did this, but my friend always does it, and she gets 2M from Singapore people". Finally I gave her 1M. Indeed, worth the experience. Absolutely: unprofessional divorced eager to try a new experience. The problem was to get free: she wanted to stay with me all day long, but I like to roam free.
So far, 1 or 2 girls per day. I cannot do more.

I've been a frequent patron of Batam for the past 1.5 years since travel opened up, about once every month I'm in Batam.
I'm looking for a group of steady kakis to go in to Batam (about 3-4) persons, for the usual: Food, Booze & BABES!
I've also got contacts of babes whom I frequent who charge as cheap as 30-40 SGD per pop. Willing to share / exchange with kakis as well. Drop me a PM if keen!
Happy Bonking!

Well, I get your point, I might prefer the same, but that is not an argument. You have not seen those girls.
With 500 SGD, you can get 1 bottle of Hennessy XO or 300 liters of Carslberg.

I don't trust the girl overnight. At the shop, at least they are guarantee to do what you buy. BTW, I went to Sri Kandy last week around 2pm, and girls were really ugly.

Well, I get your point, I might prefer the same, but that is not an argument. You have not seen those girls.
With 500 SGD, you can get 1 bottle of Hennessy XO or 300 liters of Carslberg.
I don't trust the girl overnight. At the shop, at least they are guarantee to do what you buy. BTW, I went to Sri Candy last week around 2pm, and girls were really ugly.
That's why it's always best to have a driver as well. But the problem is finding those trustworthy ones. They will go all out in helping you for such matters, even when the girl does things that should not be done.

I have a different style. I would never hire a driver for all day. I trust drivers less than the girls, and in case of troubles I am used to solve them by myself.
I take ojek or I walk, to go where I want to go. If I go to a joint, I don't want the price be higher because of the commission to the driver. At night, I find my girls in disco or pubs. I never book a girl from a joint, but I do short time on site, if I am in the mood and I am not concerned to spoil my libido for the adventures that I hope to have in the night.
I booked a girl overnight only a couple of times, many years ago. I have always regretted. Once the sex has been done, having this guest in the room limits my freedom, and usually I have little to conversate. A different story is if I find a special one in pub or disco, so special I want to invite her to my room.

I have a story that many will like.
We often report taxi and ojek drivers that overcharge foreigners. Long stories have been told about how to pay no more than 30k from HB to Nagoya, using Grab or walking outside the gate, instead of the standard 50k with taxi. (I note that the difference is just 2 SGD, but apparently there are many who believe this is worth the hassle). Standard ojek fare is 10k, but with Gojek one can pay just 6k or 7k.
I am used to pay without negotiating 12k to 15k whenever I take ojek. I keep the small money in my pocket, grouped in folded notes where each set is one ride. I have been scolded here, because I overpay ojek.
I have met countless ojek drivers who have tried to overcharge me (20k or 30k).
Well, last week I met an ojek driver who was so nice, that he insisted to carry me for FREE (because "It is a short ride, Bos"):eek:
I have never seen this over the 15 years I have been visiting Batam.
He did not know how to go from Grand Batam Mall to my hotel in Jodoh. I had to show him the way (turn left, turn right, go straight, ...).
At arrival, he looked very thankful to me for my patience, because he was not able to carry me without my instructions ("I am new to Batam, Bos") and insisted to not make me pay ("Free! Free! Short ride!").
As obvious, I put 15k in his hands and I rejected his kind offer. Who works must be paid.

Nice story - thks for sharing.
For info in case u don't already know, there is a Gojek pt at GBM lobby 2 - see pic. Very convenient to book grabcar to hotel at jodoh, probably about 20K only. Much safer than ojek and no need to wear oily smelly helmet. Unless u enjoy the thrill. :)

Some use Grab not to just save 2 SGD. Grab drivers don't keep upselling services throughout the ride - can be irritating. Save getting verbal attack. :)
Also it was a Grab driver who informed me he can take me up the Harbour Bay multistorey carpark to a carpark level just next to entrance door to Horiz tkt counter - see pic. No taxi driver has ever told me this! Convenient esp if we are in a hurry to buy or change tkt timing.

Thanks for all your info.
FYI:
I take regular taxi only on my arrival to HB. Easy and just 2SGD more expensive than Grab.
No irritation, no attacks. Sometimes the driver tries to claim he knows where to take me for girls. Who cares?
I am used to say I am a regular to Batam, I was 10 years at Formosa, I have a girlfriend in Batam. All that is more than enough to kill even the bravest driver.
Very convenient to book grabcar to hotel at jodoh, probably about 20K only. Much safer than ojek and no need to wear oily smelly helmet. Unless u enjoy the thrill. :)
I am used to take Grab cars onlu when it rains.
At all other times, I walk or I take ojek, which I pay 12k to 15k. Generous and appreciated by most.
No thrill, no helmet, but quick and cheap.

At P2, there is a "secret" fishbowl at 4th floor, accessible only if you have booked a VIP room (min 300k in week days, 500k on weekends).
Sitting fee is 650k, which alone will not take you anywhere because girls demand a good tip just to be friendly.
ST fee, to be paid to the two tomboys who manage everything there, friendly named "papi" (please note: not "mami"): 1.8M. Booking fee: 2.5M.
Some of those girls look damn sexy, but the total cost is too much for what one gets.

Not the breakfast, but she should stay with you at all times during booking, so yes of course, if you go for dinner she's with you.

You will be disappointed. Toys and outfits are only for a girl you have special chemistry with. It is not guaranteed the girl you book has such chemistry.
Moreover: do you speak some bahasa? Only few girls can speak some English. Achieving chemistry via Google Translate is more difficult...

Hope and reality are often very far apart.
Same price, and, most likely, leftovers at 10pm are unwatchable.

I went to a quick visit. Stunning PR girls, but when I was leaving I asked a staff guy what are the rates, and he told me 1M for sitting and 4M for booking.
He was joking with me, or really those are the prices??
Rates for sitting are 600k, 800k and 1M. Booking out depends on your negotiation skills. Often the opening price is 3M. I have seen some asking for 5M and some going out for 2M. I got one once for free. It helps if you can speak their language.

That seems to mean that BO there is not managed by the pub, but by the girls personally, who freely decide to accompany someone or not, depending also on what is offered. In other places, the BO fee is determined by the manager as in plain booking joints (I have seen that at Newton, to name one).

I have never seen this over the 15 years I have been visiting Batam.
This case must be unique. Usually, many locals in Batam try to take advantage of the foreigner.
One day on my last visit, I decided to try massage in the "spa" of my hotel (I will not mention, but it is the 4 stars near Jodoh). The sweet girl was pretty (that's why I decided to try, eheh), but moved hands too quickly for a good massage. Near the end, the golden question: do I want massage ALSO THERE?
Hmmm. Why not? Ah, you want tip. Sure, how much?
"100 dollars only...". :eek: :eek: :eek:

Sorry, but I did not even leave her the 100k tip after her poor massage.

When you reach just go take 1 girl from the joint. Price in between 1.5m to 2m or more. Rmb to tell the papi you dont have driver if you indeed did not go with any driver. Or else they will charge you extra somewhere 200k or more.

"Any parlour" is wrong. Old hens at poor places will be happy with 100k or 200k, but I doubt any young pretty one in a more upscale place will do that for such small money.
However, certainly not 1M LOL! :D

To be honest, my opinion is that you are aiming too high, have some too good expectation from your "first" (?) trip to Batam, therefore most likely you will be disappointed.
My FIRST advice is that you take your time reading a lot of pages from this forum. There is a lot you want to learn, but spread over long time.
My second advice is that, once you are on site, you grab an ojek (or taxi) driver, ask him to take you around for places where to book a girl, have a look, stop and choose one only if you feel there is some minimal chemistry.
Having a driver will make you pay a bit more, but you really need it (otherwise you would not ask these questions here).
Your plan (your "kind of scenario") is too detailed. Do not overplan. The more details, the more things will go differently. Follow the wind. Enjoy the freedom to explore.
Don't consider sure that you will be happy and the girl you book will give you good time. It's a combination of luck, instinct, ability. Go to Batam several times, and you will have some epic fails, but also some really good experience.
You really need good luck, but also effort from your side to help good luck.

Very good advise. When I first went to Batam I also went alone. And to make thing simple for me, I just flag a cab outside the terminal. Got on the cab and directly tell the driver I want take girl. The driver I took is a newbie in this, but he still call and ask around his friend for direction. So yea in the end he still manage to fetch me to a different joint. I paid extra but less hassle for me.

just returned from a batam trip with my first KTV experience. Spend around 150-200sgd per person including the girl sit-down fees. SYT 22 yo only.
GFE was good and after the night, girl just followed me back to hotel without any mentioning of fees or money (:confused: dont know how this works) and we did the deeds then cuddle to sleep. Woke up and passed her something like 1.5mil for tips and transport, no objection from her.

When I am in Batam, I am literally overflooded by friend requests, as soon as I enable the "search nearby" function, by profiles displaying photos of perfect Asian or Chinese models, in search of a friend, offering services, massage, etc.
They are all obvsiously fake. Behind those profiles there are agents with a pool of poor girls, or, if they are really single ladies, behind a fake photo there are middle-age ladies, or even TVs. This remark will be obvious to many, but evidently not to all.
Said that, it is NOT completely pointless to have a look on Wechat/Michat. It may be worth to spend some time on that. In the past, I have met some genuine ladies, even a horny one with hijab (report posted years ago). So, the recipe is:
1) consider only profiles with photos not obviously fake because displaying Miss Singapore;
2) consider only profiles with a series of Moments, which look genuinely presenting a real person;
3) NEVER invite the person directly to the room after just chatting (someone got a TV in the room, and if you are not super street-smart it will be difficult to expel that out of the door), but:
a) videocall first to see the real person;
b) meet in the lobby or better in a cafe, before even considering to invite someone to the room.
Now what? During my last travel to Batam my attention was caught by a profile which passed tests 1) ad 2), except that the photos were strongly photoshopped. Well, I thought, in Asia it is normal to adjust photos with those filters that make thin chin and big eyes, so I considered to proceed to step 3).
I started chatting, she offered ST for 600k and LT for 1.3M. I told her "I am going to dinner, so join me there". I was assuming to meet a lady willing to have some company. After some struggle, a lady completely different from the young cutie in the photos showed up at my table. She was fine anyway, around 25yo-30yo, gentle and looking honest. She insisted to go to my hotel as soon as I finish dinner, and she wanted ST with money first, because she had been cheated by many already (her words). That's plausible, however I rebutted that my intention was to go to party first, then I would have called her later. She left saying"ok call me if you want later".
At this point, I went to Grand Dragon Pub. After a drink, scared by the 4M price to get one of those super girls back to my hotel, I went back to my hotel and I thought to text her, because I felt tired to hunt. She responded immediately, even if it was 2am: "room number please". Even if I got to meet her in person just 2 hours before, I never do that. So I told her I was waiting her in lobby.
INDONESIA BOLEH!
ANOTHER GIRL, fattie, sweaty and ugly appeared shortly saying "I am XXX" (the same name of the girl I met before, or the name she told me). :eek:
So, there was no real XXX, the moments were all fake, the profile is by an agent managing a pool of poor girls, who must think I am stupid and I could take the girl #2 thinking she was girl #1 I met before. The person on Wechat even insisted, asking what was my problem with that girl. I just sent him to hell.
Good thing I was in the lobby and not in my room. So I simply left the hotel leaving her there, without paying her taxi or what else. She looked very sorry and desperate, to say it all. She is a victim of the system, but I cannot be victim too.
I moved quickly to Newton, and I had a FANTASTIC NIGHT.
I report this, to warn those who do not know and may be scammed for trusting others too much.

How could you think she would be happy if I pass around her phone number to unknown people?
I did not get her number from wechat where she offers massage. I met her in regular life while I was having dinner at food court, befriended her, then invited her out. Would you do that with some of your friends in Singapore, if you are from Singapore?
Nothing personal against you, but I wish you and all others understand that it is a nonsense.

Thanks for sharing. Heard from a friend who went Batam in March 2023. He's kinda disappointed with experiences similar to what you have described.
Might be that he went around 3pm and the better caweks have been taken.
Kinda remembered what Bro Nono1973 said a few years ago where popular and prettier gals were pre-booked and they were resting at the back of the joints waiting for the customers to pick them up.

Hi all
A bit off topic as not regarding cheonging Batam..
A friend (cewek) in Batam is looking to buy a house in Piayu. That house is still under instalment with the bank, and she is buying under "take over", which mean she pay a sum for the "deposit & installments paid" plus renovation done, then carry on the remaining installments payment to the bank until full payment made..
Apparently, this sort of takeover is very common in Indonesia.
May I ask the seniors here, any of you is experienced in this and can advise normally what is the paperwork required for these sort of takeover, and how can the buyer interest be protected? This is first time my friend is buying a house, hence still noob in this..
As this is not related to cheonging Batam on general, maybe bros can reply via PM.. thanks..

Looks like the hi ferry prices getting attention from Indo authorities.
Complication due to ferry parent companies based in Sgp.
S’pore passengers unhappy over high Batam ferry prices as Indonesia probes possible price-fixing (https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/se-asia/s-pore-passengers-unhappy-over-high-batam-ferry-prices-as-indonesia-probes-possible-price-fixing)
UPDATED JUN 01, 2024, 08:07 PM
.
.
.
Indonesia’s independent business watchdog disclosed that it has launched a probe into potential collusion and price-fixing among ferry operators on the route.
The probe began in 2022 following complaints from passengers, and local media reported about the investigation on May 29.
On May 29, Indonesia’s Business Competition Supervisory Commission revealed that operators charged 800,000 rupiah (S$67) to 900,000 rupiah for a return ticket from January to June 2022, more than twice the usual price of 270,000 rupiah to 450,000 rupiah.
An ST check on the websites of ferry operators found that round-trip tickets from Singapore’s HarbourFront Centre to Indonesia’s Batam Centre International Ferry Terminal cost $34 to $60 in 2021 and $56 to $76 in 2024.
Mr Ridho Pamungkas, the commission’s chief for northern Sumatra region, told ST that four operators are under investigation for alleged cartel practices, with their Singapore-based parent companies yet to be summoned. Attempts by ST to contact the companies have been unsuccessful.
“The prices now are unreasonably high. It appears the businesses have agreed to fix prices at similar high values, so there is no competition between them,” he said.
Mr Ridho noted that ferry ticket prices between Batam and Johor Bahru are lower despite the longer two-hour journey, so the Batam-Singapore fare is “an unhealthy sign”.
The commission has faced “many obstacles” during its investigation over the past two years, such as obtaining information on the operators’ expenses, he said.
“The ferry operators’ management was uncooperative in providing data, making it difficult to gather evidence,” Mr Ridho said, adding that the parent companies being based in Singapore – and thus outside Indonesia’s legal purview – only complicated matters.
The commission’s head office in Jakarta held a focus group meeting with the Transportation Ministry, BP Batam and the Riau Islands provincial administration on May 28 to discuss the high fares and possible collusion.
A follow-up meeting will be held in Batam on June 11, this time with the ferry operators in attendance. “We are committed to resolving this problem,” Mr Ridho said.

You are 100% right. Finally someone says that.
For Ferry Companies, it's market rule: they wish the highest price with which they still sell. We cannot lecture them what is a good price, in a free market.
But is it ok this is a free market without regulations from Authorities? My political view says NO, public transport even between borders should not be left to free market without some regulation from governments.
For Indonesian Authorities, they should push for low prices, because the lower, the more tourists from Singapore come to spend SGD in Batam.
For Singapore Authorities, frankly I do not think this can be a priority in their agenda. They do not care if more Indo people comes from Batam to shop in Singapore, and do not care if Singapore people has something different to do on Sunday than just strolling and shopping in Singapore malls. Singapore economy does not get a boost if ferries are cheaper.

It is not a free market but a distortion of a free market if the few players collude to fix the price, as is likely the case here. Something like a monopoly comprising of the few players. Regulation needs to come into play.
For Indonesian Authorities, they should push for low prices, because the lower, the more tourists from Singapore come to spend SGD in Batam.
Yup, clear incentives for Indo authorities to act, and seems they are doing so. They have control in who they allow to berth at their ferry terminals.
For Singapore Authorities, frankly I do not think this can be a priority in their agenda. They do not care if more Indo people comes from Batam to shop in Singapore, and do not care if Singapore people has something different to do on Sunday than just strolling and shopping in Singapore malls.

The number of persons is one thing, the amount spent is another thing. Do you have a similar diagram plotting the total expenditure of tourists grouped by country?
It is true that the number of rich Indonesians is increasing, but those who go to Singapore to spend for luxury shopping are not discouraged by the ferry ticket. By the way, big spenders come more to Changi, less to Harbour Front.

Care to elaborate your experience at kg bule
I went there on a weekend last time in 2023 and Bar hop around 3 times but found the PR girls all not lookers and were very pushy... The ones sitting outside were baits I guess?
Maybe I went there with the wrong friends, I won't mind trying again if there are good recommendations :D

One year later sure there is a difference
Just pick your poison
Or once u go in just say you only need 1 girl
Then see how the night plays out
Or else skip n bar hop

It's been more than 6 months since I last been to Batam, last year alone went 8 times.
Just checking if there is any new vice spots for hj/fj. My usual joint is:
- Hallo kitty for fj (girls are considered slightly better than any shops along that stretch of shops)
- Octopus for fj and hj (same girls quality better but price slightly more for fj)
- Venew for hj (good quality girls, overall package cheap)
Any other new spots please share with me, thanks alot. :)

Just some general question:-
1. Heard of some theft is earlier threads. If want to go dip in jacuzzi, then our wallet/valuables not safe to put in their locker? Or recommend go straight to room...
2. Where to change money near these two joints.
3. Any good food around these two joints.

Thats the point ain't it? Its an open forum, nobody will post their details online.
Anyone is keen can just PM that bro to know each other and arrange to meet up/go together?
Just like myself, I always go alone. But last year saw 1 bro posting the dates he is going, so I just PM that bro and we arranged to meet up and chiong together. And since then we been going together a few more times.

Just wanna ask if any bros stayed in Citra Plaza Nagoya studio apartment before? According to the Google map it's about minutes walk to Nagoya Food Court. Saw on Agoda the rate is around S$35 per day. Thinking about it. I have never stay in an apartment before while in Batam. I stick to hotels in Nagoya Center eg Batam 1, Hans Inn, Amaris, Nagoya Hill & the now defunct Farmosa ( Taiwanese boss, Jerry Wang left / disappeared pre Covid guess in Dec 2019. Suspected back in Taiwan) Please do feedback if any bros stayed there before.
Thank you

I would exclude that. I need daily or even more frequent room cleaning and refresh :p
now defunct Farmosa ( Taiwanese boss, Jerry Wang left / disappeared pre Covid guess in Dec 2019. Suspected back in Taiwan)
He abandoned the place right before the big COVID storm, that is in February 2020. I stayed there in January 2020, less than 2 months before being in lockdown. Rumors say he left staff unpaid and repaired in his home country Taiwan.
He must have seen much farther than any other, because he secured his belongings before COVID destroyed so many hotel businesses.

Alpha, phoenix, quantum, venew, delta etc. Have your pick. Their idea of gym is a treadmill and exercise bike. If you want a genuine equipped gym, there's one near harbourbay with phoenix spa nearby.

I will organize my thoughts , roadmap and reference and post my weekend FR soon.
So here is my FR for 21 ~ 23 June:
I took a few reference here especially from Bro Nono past FR, althou it's old but it's a good reference point and adjust accordingly due to inflation.
post like https://sbf.net.nz/showpost.php?p=13675131&postcount=32897
and also know to find your back up plan from this post https://sbf.net.nz/showpost.php?p=19577356&postcount=15596 it's a very good walking guide, but i will share a more latest one by japanese (never thot my jap will come in handy for Batam).
and also this post from Bro Nono which is more latest https://sbf.net.nz/showpost.php?p=21823738&postcount=18096
as for the japs reference, you need to use google translate. basically they cover the same as above, just that they attached more stuffs in it. But they quite brutal as in they will total ignore any shopping request by ladies (you will read in some), they're purely mission minded.
https://trip-partner.jp/3876 & https://midnight-angel.jp/367
As for my trip... my orignal plan was actually to get from Hallo Kitty Jojo the 1st overnite then next day find my next overnite by walking myself.
But Hallo Kitty Jojo quoted me too high, yes his girls are pretty but i don't think it's a deal for me. So as i was exploring, and thought that i might have to do walking on first day. A Bro from here assisted me and i'm greatly thankful, because the day i landed Batam was raining. so thru his contact i got my girl.
and she's a turner :cool: and i took her 2days straight @ 3.6 juta (i know, it's against bro nono advise, but her look i took the risk), i felt like i'm back 18 years old walking with my beautiful GF on orchard rd showing off (i really do). :D
GFE: she's very accomadating GFE yeah it's there maybe 8/10
Figure: ohh it's great but no for booby lover, but i give her 8/10
FJ: she's ok, we're sync together. i give it 8/10 (i will come to this part again)
RTF: yeah maybe i'm going back this weekend for her again, i still remember her scent.
So on 23rd after my check-out, i left some tips for the clean-up staffs (i very paiseh), becos we made a mess of the bed.... her cum stained the king size bed.:( i can see she from fake moaning till pillow grabbing.... oh man it's so satisfying.
after that i actually went to check out on Venew SPA
Here the price list, you can also take reference from this post here from another bro retiredbatam > https://sbfsg.agency/showpost.php?p=21846785&postcount=18173
720109
so in short if u take executive you can only choose girls from green label, and the Suites you get to choose even more pretty girls (but generally they are all pretty).
720110
and here's the waiting room where you choose and wait.
720111
after ward payment will be done on lvl 4, which they will tell you where.
I took 203 (if i remember correctly) massage was okok, but this place focus is about teasing not massage (pre emp u guys first)
Hope these above help any newbie exploring, have fun and stay safe!

26-06-2024, 03:12 PM

I believe all the ladies can be selected whichever package you take, green is the ladies available if I'm not wrong, difference in exec and suites is the room have bath tub or shower only. But that was when i went quite a long while ago, maybe now change.

You know something? I have been trying to seduce beer girls of food courts every single night I was in Batam over so many years, and I have always failed except two single cases right this year (and they were not professional waitresses, but girls who were trying that job and were fired soon).
Many beer girls I have befriended promised to come out with me a night after FC is closed or the morning, but they never dared to do that for real.
Getting a beer girl from FC seems to be damn difficult, because their job is to be friendly to all guests, so they are used to be courted.

Visited Octopus... and wow... might be a bit more than I was expecting to spend. But it was so so so worth it.
Location... a bit far from the usual tourist places, need to grab there. The staff are really friendly and welcoming. The place is really nice.
Took the massage + ST package with a platinum lady. Pick a really pretty smiley lady in P20, May. The session was really good... really worth getting a higher end girl, she catbath, bbbj, lick around my body, bbbj again, back to catbath, bbbj, back to kicking, more bbbj... shoik! Now I know why they drive the point that it is 1 shot. Even if shoot in bbbj then it's done. She was so hardworking... It was only that I really wanted to fk her that I controlled.
FJ was great, she was hardworking with cow girl... she was tight... and I think she cummed as well as I felt her pussy shivering.
Then I had a massage, different and random girl... but the girl also quite cute and sweet. Maybe just large thighs. Her massage was decent. Plus.... I had a HJ to end it off. It was also quite good, she didn't rush and alternated playing with my dick and my balls. Over a really awesome time there.
I will add pics in my next post
