  • Responsible Tourism Policy 2021
    Responsible Tourism Policy Introduction Nikoi Island is a 15ha island in the South China Sea just 8km off the east coast of Bintan, Indonesia. Two thirds of the island is covered in virgin rainforest and the coral reef surrounding the island is rich in marine life. The present owners acquired a leasehold title to the island in 2004. Whilst there were no inhabitants on the island when it was acquired, there were signs that at some stage it had been inhabited and farmed for coconuts. The current owners are a small group of friends who were disenchanted with the standard of holiday accommodation on offer within close range of Singapore. Cultural sensitivity, vernacular design, privacy and simple luxuries seemed unheard of. After obtaining the necessary government approvals, building began in earnest in 2005 and the first 6 houses were opened on the northern beach in May 2007 with the remaining 9 on the southern beach in May 2009. An additional 3 beach houses were added in 2020. The success of Nikoi is evidenced by the fact that it has operated at over 90% occupancy for seven years with guests booking on average more than 4 months in advance in order to secure a room. The island is marketed without any advertising or the use of any intermediaries. Instead of advertising the approach has been to donate what might have otherwise been spent on advertising to The Island Foundation (“TIF”), a registered charity in Singapore and Indonesia that was established by the owners of Nikoi in 2009. Encouraged by the interest in Nikoi the owners opened a sister property called Cempedak Island In 2017.
