Opus Bay Balmoral Tower: Batam’s largest 493-room hotel is set to open in December 2026

Spanning a 125-hectare site, Opus Bay integrated resort is set to open in phases starting in December 2026, offering a 45-minute ferry connection from Singapore.

Batam’s ‘City in a City’

Conceived under a “City within a City” vision, the multi-phase mega-project will see:

• Balmoral Tower: Batam’s largest 35-storey, 493-room hotel (Dec 2026)
• Cluny Resorts: Batam’s first all-villa resort with 57 villas (Early 2027)
• Bay Boulevard Marina Promenade: 10,000 sqm waterfront retail promenade with around 80 retail and alfresco dining options, a local seafood food hall, and a supermarket
• Active sports park: 3 padel courts, 4 pickleball courts, shower facilities, and food kiosks
• Marina Bay Ferry Cove: Private ferry terminal

Residence on Opus Bay

At the heart of the initial release is Residence on Opus Bay, which split-launches two distinct accommodation options.

Balmoral Tower

Batam’s largest single hotel, rising 35 storeys and housing 493 rooms across nine categories. Units range from compact studios to spacious two-bedroom suites, each featuring private balconies with unobstructed sea views, integrated kitchenettes, washer-dryers, and an AI-powered digital concierge service.

• Off-Peak / Weekday Prices: Around IDR 1,050,000 to 1,500,000 per night (approx. S$89 to 127 per night)
• Peak / Weekend Prices: Around IDR 3,400,000 to 4,270,000 per night (approx. S$290 to 362 per night)

Cluny Resorts

Scheduled to open in early 2027, this luxury resort introduces Batam’s first all-villa destination. It comprises 57 private villas across seven categories, spanning from 169 sqm 1-bedroom layouts to a 548 sqm 3-bedroom Grand Villa. Most villas feature private swimming pools, with buggies connecting residents to the wider resort amenities.

Singapore-listed developer, Tuan Sing Holdings

Opus Bay is developed by Singapore-listed real estate company Tuan Sing Holdings. The overall master plan was created by world-renowned architectural firm Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF). Additional retail and lifestyle components across the township feature designs by Lead8 and Park + Associates.

Other Architecture Firms

The Batam Opus Bay Balmoral Tower was designed by Singapore-based RT+Q Architects. The tower features a sleek, high-rise glass-and-concrete facade punctuated by sky terraces and private balconies. Structural engineering for the high-rise was conducted by Davy Sukamta & Partners.

Opus Bay Cluny Resorts was designed by ONG&ONG. The villas take inspiration from high-end tropical holiday hideaways, blending natural timber, stone, and floor-to-ceiling glass to integrate indoors with private pools and landscaped gardens.

Marina Bay Ferry Cove

Opus Bay is located in the Sekupang district along Batam’s western coast (Waterfront City, Jl. K.H. Ahmad Dahlan) and will have its own private ferry terminal, Marina Bay Ferry Cove. It is a 3-minute walk to Balmoral Tower Batam hotel, enabling direct 45-minute transfers from Singapore’s HarbourFront ferry terminal.

Sekupang District of Batam

Historically, Sekupang has been a quieter, industrial, and residential zone compared to Batam’s bustling commercial centers like Nagoya or Batam Centre.

Opus Bay transforms Sekupang into a high-end Special Economic and Tourism Hub. By capturing high-net-worth weekenders, expats, and foreign buyers from Singapore, the project acts as a catalyst for local employment, international school investments, healthcare expansion, and regional tourism revenue.

Initially launched in 2021, early phase targets anticipated earlier completions. Like many regional mega-developments post-2020, construction and phase openings encountered extended timelines, moving the official hotel opening to December 2026 and villas and retail to early 2027
