Batam Spa Villa - KTM Resort

Had already signed up for this 1-day spa package in Oct with Cindy and Jason but due to some family matters, I couldn't go with them. Instead, I had to postpone the trip till one month later which is a right timing as I had great accompanies like Lis, Dom and bf. Lis expressed her interest of joining me during the Big Walk. Of course, Dom being her bf took a day leave from work to join us too. The bf had also finally gotten his passport renewed just before the trip. Thus, the 4 of us went for this trip together.

All the arrangements were done online through e-mails without the hassel of going down personally which saves a lot of time and paper works.

On the actual day, me and bf went to collect our boarding pass, ferry tickets and pre-printed white card! Cool, save another trouble of filling up white cards! Hee.



Flower hair pin borrowed from Lis especially to suit this occassion :) The ferry was delayed for 20 minutes and the whole ride took almost 1 hour before reaching Batam. During the whole ride, the two guys were sleeping zzZ. So PIG!




We were greeted by the friendly masseurs before we begin our 180 minutes of heavenly treatment. To start off, we had our tired feet soak in warm water and scrub with salt while facing the sea view.




Next, we changed into the batik tube dress and shorts provided for my favourite session of the day! JACUZZI FILLED WITH BUBBLES FOAM!! During the spa by the sea, one can see many fishing boats and tankers go past while enjoying the peace here. I let bf go to wash up first while I continued to enjoyed myself in the jacuzzi. =P





Then we changed to the bathrobe and had a full body, neck and head rub down for the next 1 hour or so. Very shiok but pain. The masseur though small in size had very strong hands and firm touch. It was pain during the process but after the whole massage, the feeling was great. You just have to be there to experience it yourself~





Naturally, before we left, we gave the masseur a big tip and they were all very happy and thanked us several times.

Next, we were brought into a guest room and were served ginger tea. All of us don't really like the taste of it and could barely finished one small cup. We took our time to take a short nap before moving on to the reception area for our lunch.





With our bloated stomach, we took a cab to Batam Centre. Disappearing fast food centre in Singapore long some time ago but found in our neighbouring countries. A&W, well known for their root beer float and waffles last time. We had our dinner there before taking the ferry back to Singapore.




We ended the day by taking more photos at Vivo City. LOL. I hope to go for more short trips like Bintan etc etc!!! :D
