Any tip to book creek at balai now? Thru the driver or villa still have? Hotel must book thru website or still can go there and find? Like Vitoria hotel , balai view still there?
Villa is deserted, although I've that villa is going to reopen again soon, but the question mark is when ? How soon ? However ceweks still available in Balai, taxi drivers and ojeks generally have the "lobang". Balai View still open, also the hotel which was located next to H3 which closed 2 years ago has reopen and rename as Sky Hotel, all rooms there have also refurbished. I was in Balai for 10 days last month, to what I see, Balai is quite active.
Entry condition to Balai basically same as Batam, no ART/PCR, return ferry ticket, travel insurance required. The only document require beside passport is Vaccine Certificate. However, if going to Balai, prepare to stay there for ay least 2 nights, only one ferry service in 2 days and only available on even date, so can't return on either same day or next day.

Hows the price now though if book through taxi driver? Still got LT available?
Feel like visiting again for eat fk sleep repeat kind of trip.
My cewek told me 5 villas have already reopen, she is also going back to work again at V16 sometime next month. However, Covid infected cases worldwide Singapore have risen rapidly recently, so can't rule out border control may re-tighten again.
When I went to Balai on June 16 (1st ferry to Balai after 2 years of suspension), the ferry was almost full. When I returned on June 26 after staying there for 10 nights, the ferry was also full. Beside that, there are 5 ferry service between Johor and Balai daily, so demand for ceweks easily out number supply.
