Gary Player-Designed Ria Bintan Voted Best Course in Indonesia

Gary Player Design is proud to announce that Ria Bintan Golf Club was voted Indonesia’s best golfing experience in 2004 at the Asian Golf Monthly Awards. This 36-hole golfer’s paradise lies at the northern tip of Bintan Island on the pristine beaches of the South China Sea. Since 1999 Ria Bintan Golf Club has consistently clinched winning and runner-up awards for both its Ocean and Forest courses. These have included Golf Digest’s top 100 courses, Asian Golf Monthly’s best golf resort in Asia in 2000 and the most recent, best golf course in Indonesia - a hotspot on the Asian golfing map.

Aptly named Ria Bintan (Ria means celebration), this golf and beach resort is the toast of holiday-makers. The 44 hectare development includes an 18-hole championship golf course (Ocean Course), a 9-hole course (Forest Course) a clubhouse with recreational facilities, 1,500 resort homes with sea views and a Club Med beachfront resort.

A 45-minute ferry ride from Singapore and 35-minute speedboat ride from the sister island of Batam, Ria Bintan is the quintessence of Asian sophistication. Golf Digest quoted, “Once you play Ria Bintan, you’ll be enchanted forever!”
