10.0We had an excellent 6 day, 5 night stay at Indra Maya Villas, Nirwana Gardens, and would highly recommend it. This was our third stay at Nirwana Gardens, and once again it reminded us why we keep coming back.
A special mention must go to the Front Office Manager, and all the staff, who were extremely helpful, friendly, and welcoming throughout our stay. Everyone we dealt with helped make the stay relaxed, easy, and enjoyable.
The wider Nirwana Gardens complex is fantastic, with so much to do that it genuinely feels difficult to run out of activities. During our stay, we took part in air rifle shooting, the airsoft shooting range, paintball, bowling, horse riding, Kids Club, ATV, Ninebot/Segway, batik painting, bodyboarding, the Great Mable Tube ride, jet skiing, and parasailing. The only time we left the resort was to go on a nighttime guided fireflies boat tour, which was organised by the resort and is highly recommended. It made for a very active, fun, and memorable family holiday.
We stayed in a two-bedroom beachfront villa at Indra Maya Villas. The villa was beautiful, extremely spacious, and very comfortable, with a master bedroom, second twin bedroom, huge lounge/dining area, fully equipped kitchen, private pool, three bathrooms, and an outside shower. The view out to sea was superb, and the villa felt very private and not overlooked at all. Having a dedicated golf buggy allocated to the villa full-time was also a brilliant touch and made getting around the resort very easy.
Considering how many activities we did each day, along with restaurants and room service, the overall cost was actually less than we expected. Overall, this was a superb stay in a beautiful villa, within a resort complex that offers an impressive range of activities, supported by genuinely excellent staff. We highly rate Nirwana Gardens and will certainly be happy to return again.
− Only very minor constructive comments: softer pillows could perhaps be provided as an option, and the outside shower was not working during our stay, although this did not affect us in any meaningful way. There is also a golf course next door; however, given the excellent range of activities already available within the resort, an on-site driving range would be a very welcome addition.
A relaxing stay at Nirwana
7.0Villa was very nice with great pool. Free buggy made travelling around the locked down property very fast and easy.
Restaurant at ain hotel and Spices served high quality food. Staff were always friendly and helpful.
− Beach below villa was not very clean (plastic on sand and muddy water). Other beaches were much better. Breakfast was ok but no refrigeration so warm yogurt, cheese etc. 50 mins+ to prepare some poached eggs which was unfortunate. Was not able to leave the grounds on bike rentals. TV was very fuzzy so not ideal during world cup.
Very high prices for food and drink compared to local bintan prices.
