​

This was our last day (23 March 2019) at Aston Batam Hotel & Residences.
How we find our stay?
Marvelous. Syiok. Best gila nak mampos.
3-Bedroom Apartment babe.
Of course, we had the most enjoying moment of our time.
​

Our last moment with the apartment. Haha.
We highly recommend you guys to book their apartment.
Worth everything lah.

Check out at 12pm (Indonesia Time) and was fetched by Pak Ribut.
Our next plan for lunch was Nasi Padang.
We head down to Sederhana Masakan Padang Restaurant.
Located at Komp. Tanjung Pantun Blok FF No 1-2.
Sederhana Restaurant is very popular in Batam.
There is a lot of outlet there.
I highly recommend you to try the food.
Total we spent is IDR $499,400 (SGD $49).
Its cheap + damn delicious.
Remember its for six people of eating.
​

Then after we are done with our lunch.
We went to Batam City Mall (BCS Mall) to shop again.
The trip was about 10 mins.
Our final shopping for 3 Days 2 Nights in Batam.
So Azam & Shasha bought shoes for themselves.
We got no photos to show you. Sneaker shoes were dirt cheap.
Authentic brand. You know lah there got some grading type.
​
One pair of shoes may cost you about IDR $150,000 - $250,000 (about SGD $15 - $25).
We shop there from 2pm - 4pm (Indonesia Time).
We leave the BCS Mall at 4.05pm (Indonesia Time) and depart from Harbour Bay Ferry Terminal at 5pm (Indonesia Time).
The trip to ferry terminal from BCS Mall is like 10 - 15 mins.
Its quite fast.

The trip from Harbour Bay Ferry Terminal to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal
was 45 mins due to bad weather conditions.
Singapore was raining heavily that time.
We reached Singapore at 6.45pm (Singapore Time).
Thats where we realise ITS BACK TO REALITY!

Now its 11.43pm (Singapore Time) gengs.
Time for us to sleep.
Do watch our videos in Batam.
We will not upload the video now because too shag to edit the video.
We will update you guys soon enough.
Good night readers.
Stay tune to our YouTube channel.
​May you guys have a good Monday tomorrow.

Wake up early to go for breakfast.
Their breakfast timing is from 6am - 10am (Indonesia Time).
We will not show the full video because we will be compiling it.
We will upload to our YouTube channel.
Do subscribe to us to watch the videos.

Just watch the short video that we have recorded.
Do ignore the sound that is from Hidayat’s nose.
​

After breakfast, Ashila & Shasha head down to the swimming pool.
The Swimming pool at Aston Batam Hotel & Residences is open from 6am - 8pm (Indonesia Time).
The photo & video is taken by Azam.
Where is Hidayat?
Simple...
Sleeping Lor...
Where got time for Swimming.
Bed time is way way important than Swimming.
​

We have book an appointment at 11.30am (Indonesia Time) for our spa treatment.
It is located opposite Nagoya Hills.
The shop name is The Spa Secret.
​We took free shuttle bus service at 11am from hotel lobby to Nagoya Hills Shopping Centre.
Then we will walk opposite the mall to go for the appointment.

Our family did not go for the spa treatment because
they want to shop at Nagoya Hill Shopping Mall.

We took a Traditional Herbal Spa package for 2 pax.
It cost IDR $860,000 per person (SGD $87 per person).
The spa package is 2 hours 30 mins in a couple room.

What will you go through?
1. sea salt foot bath in the room.
2. Followed by body cleansing in the room.
3. Body massage using lemongrass oil + you will smell the aroma lemongrass through the head hole massage bed in the room.
4. Scrub your body using lulur in the room.
5. You will seat at the body steam room for 15 mins (damn scary). Remember this is a separate room. Not in the couple room.
6. After that they will ask you drink water to hydrate yourself + Body Yogurt Polish in the couple room.
7. Soak yourself in Jacuzzi Pool in the room.
8. You have to shower yourself in the room.
9. Lastly, ladies will go through V-Treatment (claim to tighten it..lol) & men will go through lotion body & shoulder massage in the couple room.
10. Once your massage is done, you will drink a cup of Lemongrass tea with biscuits & sweets.

To make your life easier.
Nah. Go and see the link yourself.
If you interested, go and make an appointment.

After we are done with the spa, we meet up with our families at Nagoya Hills.
By that time, they already done with their shopping at there.
Our next plan was to go to Diamond City Mall.
Known as DC Mall Batam.
It was a last minute plan.
Take note we got 6 pax and we don’t have transportation on second day.

If we take taxi, we need two taxis.
Each taxi cost you IDR 50,000 (SGD $5).
Means two cabs total of SGD $10.

We decided to take the risk and try grab services in Batam.
​They have grab car that caters 6 pax.
Guess how much they cost you to go from Nagoya Hills to DC Mall.
It cost you only IDR $13,000 (SGD $1.30).
The driver will message you and tell you where to meet.
They can’t fetch you at the Shopping mall as
they claim the security guard and tax driver will assault them.

Going there was quite smooth with Grab but
​you will need to walk a little bit further from Nagoya Hills.
​

We did shop at Diamond City Mall (DC Mall Batam).
​We bought some items from supermarket again.
Azam & Ashila buy good quality jackets.
Ashila wanted Telur Penyu (Turtle Eggs) and for 10 eggs, it cost you IDR $15,000 each (SGD $1.50 each).
We also bought foods at Coffee Town DC Mall Batam and bring back to hotel.

Nasi Ayam Rendang cost you IDR $27,000 (SGD $2.70).
Sate Ayam 30 sticks with Lotong, Timun and the sauce cost you IDR $98,000 (SGD $9.80 in total).
Means each satay stick cost you SGD $0.32.
I highly recommend the satay to you because it taste the same like our Singapore version.
Most satay in Batam is mixed with soya sauce (kicap) which is NOT NICE to us.
Nasi goreng oriental cost you IDR $32,000 (SGD $3.20).
Mee goreng cost you IDR $27,000 (SGD $2.70).
5 pieces of chicken nuggets cost you IDR $26,000 (SGD $2.60).
Don’t buy the nuggets. Not worth it.
Might as well you buy the nuggets at Burger King Singapore.
Lagi worth it.

We decided to Grab again from DC Mall Batam to our Hotel.
If we go by taxi, the price will be about SGD $8 each.
Its a peak period that time.
Imagine two taxis means, total of $16 for two taxis.

We book GrabCar 6 seater for the price of IDR $15,000 (SGD $1.50).
Its one time payment uh.
You see huge price difference uh.
​

Before sleeping, Ashila, Shasha & Azam did their face mask.
This was our last night in Aston Batam Hotel & Residences.
Its was a great family time spent.
