The Sanchaya Bintan is in a league of its own when it comes to the luxury resort experience. Located on the island of Bintan, Indonesia, the resort offers pristine white sands on its beachfront location, private villa accommodation overlooking the breathtaking ocean, and 5-star personalized service.
The resort is the brainchild of Singapore-based Russian entrepreneur Natalya Pavchinskaya, who merged all of her cultural influences from her world travels to create the very distinct and unique aesthetic of Sanchaya. Everywhere you look are artefacts, art pieces, decors, and architectural influences from the region, as well as from the founder’s love for colonial design details and that of European design of the 18th and 19th centuries.
The result is the perfect blend of Asian and European sensibilities that define the essence of The Sanchaya, a truly luxurious, beautiful, and enchanting escape.
