The very rare total solar eclipse can be seen from the island of Belitung on March 9, 2016. Alas, I won't be there. A perfect place to view such miracle from a true heaven on earth. what a breathtaking view it will be! On top of that, the total eclipse will take place on a special sacred day for the Balinese Hindus.  It's called "Silence Day" by which you experience the whole day in total silence. In the past, even the airport would shut down 100%. If you combine all three of those special things you'll get an ultra special day!

Another breathtaking view at another island off of Belitung. There are a plethora of stunning islands off of Belitung island. Each one is surrounded with captivating and dramatic rocks, clear water that makes you want to jump in and swim all day long, and white sands. Belitung is more than twice of the size of Singapore. Despite of its almost unknown name compared to Bali, the roads around the whole island are smooth and very well taken care of. Which makes going around the island to be very easy. These fascinating smaller islands are found on the west side of Belitung. The closest ones are about ten minutes away from the dockage area. To get to Belitung you must fly from Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. It is a 50-minute flight. Absolutely recommend to do island hopping once you visit Belitung. It's as beautiful as island-hopping in Greece or the Mediterranean, and with warm water. It's like swimming in the bath tub of Mother Nature.

I think its very expensive for the condition of the room. This is an old resort. The pool has cloudy water. Lucky i stayed here on my last day after 2 week. I felt its a rip off and this place make me want to leave for home.
