Hi Seniors,
Had my maiden trip to Batam in Sep 2017 4D3N but believe it or not, never even step foot into any massage joint (clean / special) nor any booking joint as my intention was to explore what this island has to offer apart from the "usual stuff"
During those 4 days, I had visited so many chinese temples until I had lost count. Also explored many beaches, one of it was at the far end of Batam Island, called Pantai Mirota (I believe it must have been more than 30 mins drive from Barelang Bridge 1). Even, took a ride in a small wobbly motorboat to explore an Island called Belakang Padang, located some 25 mins from Sekupang Domestic Terminal.
Spent a lot of time hopping from one food stall / shop to another sampling all kinds of malay to Chinese delicacies. I'm pretty amazed that Batam has a big variety of good food, especially seafood.
Anyway, I have planned my 2nd Batam trip this week and I shall call it "my virgin cheong trip"

Will be staying in a Hotel called Lovina Inn Penuin.
Q: This Hotel OK or not. Any senior stayed here before?
I have read some 50 pages of this thread and I hope brothers can advise on my "theoretical" understanding:-
Special Massage Joint:
- New Spa @ Batam City Hotel
- Hello Kitty Massage
- Kings Massage
Seniors said Kings Massage can call to hotel room.
Q: How about New Spa or Hello Kitty...Can call to hotel room or not?
Q: Which of this 3 is the better one, i.e. more younger masseurs?
LT Booking Joint:
- Goldbird (Sedona)
- Happy 8
Q: Which one is more "honest" and have better SYT selection?
Q: What time this Booking Joint open for business and what is best time to go there?
And finally, the Mother of all Questions (I hope brothers don't mind me asking). Can any kind senior(s) PM me contact of good / nice local FL (SYT or age below 30 will be fine). Honestly, I still haven't built enough confidence (for obvious reason) to find an FL thru wechat or beetalk, which a few brothers had recommended.
Thanks in advance.
