About this hotel

The Sanchaya is a boutique property on Bintan Island, a Indonesian destination an hour's ferry from Singapore. The hotel sits on a private stretch of coast and is built around a collection of heritage villas, each with direct beach access. The architecture draws from local and colonial design traditions, creating distinctive spaces that feel tied to the island's landscape and history. Guest amenities include a spa, restaurant, and several communal areas designed for both relaxation and social gathering. The property holds a Forbes Travel Guide award for 2026, a recognition that speaks to its design integrity and service standard. It draws travellers seeking a quieter, more culturally grounded alternative to larger resort chains, and appeals particularly to couples and small groups looking for a more intimate experience.
