# Telunas Resorts

> Telunas Resorts operates two award-winning private island and beach resorts in the Riau Archipelago of Indonesia, just 50 km from Singapore. Telunas Private Island is a premium all-inclusive overwater-villa retreat; Telunas Beach Resort is a more casual all-inclusive bay-front resort with stilted bungalows. Both are designed for restorative hospitality with deep ties to the local community on Sugi Island.

The two resorts share a brand layer at telunasresorts.com but offer distinct guest experiences:

- **Telunas Private Island (TPI)** — 15 Overwater Villas + 5 Adults-only Ridge Villas with private plunge pools, infinity pool, executive-chef dining, kids club, full spa. Premium all-inclusive: room rate covers all meals, all activities, taxes, service charges, and the domestic boat transfer. PI guests also get complimentary access to Telunas Beach Resort.
- **Telunas Beach Resort (TBR)** — 18 overwater bungalows ranging from compact rooms to 3-bedroom + loft layouts. All-inclusive with rooms, three meals daily, boat transfer, and all activities included; only the Beachside Massage, Fishing Boat Adventure, and a few paid dining experiences carry an extra charge. Great for families, groups, and corporate retreats.

Both resorts are ferry + boat from Singapore Harbourfront Centre via Sekupang, Batam — total transit time ~2h 45min, with Telunas staff escorting guests through the domestic terminal transfer.
