After that, we went for lunch at Aneka Selera (Kelong Seafood) at Barelang Bridge, it was quite far but the food, the prices and the view really worth it.
Hmm...you came by Batam center,and then head to Nagoya area...and later to Barelang...


I think you spent quite a bit of time travelling from point to point.

Hana is a good choice when your target is Kampong bule.

Curious how much you paid for the hotel room?

(I ask becos I would like to know if their price has gone up and if its above 400k/night)

So we went to Sport Massage near to our hotel, surprisingly they had a very good massage and cheap as well (only ard 20 sgd not include tip), remind you this place only offer clean massage, but I believe we can get the masseuse number (they are quite young) and bring them out after they finished work (place close by 8.30pm).
A small suggestion,the next time round if you have friends going with you,pick a hotel with in-hotel massage parlor in it and yet near to Sports Massage,hehehe... that way,everyone in the trip can have the best of all world.

Hope you guys aren't sharing one room,hehehe...if its each man one room,some men can go "somewhere" they like and you could also have what you like,especially massage in your own hotel room. Its only a phone call away,hehehe...

So many choices of food in this place, and tastes also quite good.
When you are at A2 food court,you are also about 5 mins walk to Batam City Hotel,hehehe...which means New Spa.

One thing about Men's Spa for myself is,i would like to take my own sweet time there,eat, sleep,rest...soak myself in a hot pool,chat with friend,breathe some quality O2 air and perhaps even sweat myself silly since perspiration can also be healthy for office worker like myself who usually didn't catch much of the sun outside non air-con places.

Lunch or dinner can be arranged there since these men's spas sell food too,hehehe...

As usual,knows what you are looking for 1st, example if I go Batam,i am looking for massage and good food,i stayed nearer to a certain area so everything I "want" are within reach and at my own convenience.

Massage also divide into different tier too,hehehe...higherend,mid-end and the lower-end. I still enjoy going to known clean massage,hehehe...and look for something "special".

May you have a better next trip.

Cheers!
