Trip to Parai pool villas



You will see beach like this along the road at Bangka.

If you are going to Indonesia, maybe you can consider this resort as a Bali alternative. Parai Pool Villas Resort and Spa. I visit the resort last week and the weather was just nice. Located at the Island of Bangka Belitung.

At first I also confused where is this place in Indonesia. I thought it is near Batam Island, but not. It is near Palembang in Indonesia and 50 mins from Jakarta. Just search for Bangka Belitung at google map. The aerial view is not as detail as in Malaysia map.
