Stunning island, wonderful staff, great accommodation and perfect for a long weekend getaway in short. Pulau Pankgil was chosen to celebrate a good friends 40th and the only thing that could have made it better was to have stayed on longer. A private island fully equipped with almost everything one could want. The kayaks received plenty of attention, so too... More

This was my second time visiting Pangkil. And after only being there a few hours, I'd already decided to come back again next year. This was a birthday weekend. And Pangkil knows how to celebrate a birthday. We had fireworks and cake. This year there were 14 of us. Half of us had been there before. And that somehow made... More

Pangkil Island has exceeded any expectation we had, even after having examined the website (which already looked fabulous). I would recommend anyone to book Pangkil for a special occasion as ours (honeymoon with family). Also all services associated with the trip in terms of ferry bookings, transport on Bintan, provision of drinks and food and the excellent service provided by... More

Stayed here with a group of friends for a friends 40th birthday and loved every minute! The best thing about Pulau Pangkil is the privacy and exclusivity as you have the whole island to yourself. Accomodation is in rustic "driftwood palaces" (as they call them) which are spacious and clean, but with an authentic "desert island" feel. The beds are... More

Celebrated my friend's birthday on Pangkil on 1st-4th March 2012 with a group of 26 people & had such a magical time! The transport from Singapore's Tanah Merah Ferry terminal to the island took about 5hours including bus transfer & speedboat from Bintan to the island... It was a party all the way & very easy & well co-ordinated! We... More

Every person that I have spoken to who has been to this island is in agreement. It is amazing. The water is crystal clear with amazing visibility, the sand is soft and white and when looking up into the sky it feels like you are contained within a giant blue marble. The staff are attentive and sincere, which I believe... More

We (26 of us) were in Pangkil by the first week of March. I can't say the best timing since the weather gods weren't on our side but we had the best time ever. Amazing island and great friendly staff who were there to make sure we had fantastic time. Can't wait for the next trip.
