INTRODUCTION

Pulau Pangkil Kecil is a delightful little island in Indonesia located close to Singapore. ‘Pulau’ means ‘island’ and ‘Kecil’ means ‘small’ in Indonesian. When you hire Pangkil you get everything: all the driftwood palaces (our luxury accommodation), the bar, the sound system, the pool, kayaks, snorkeling equipment, speedboats, kitchen, and more than twenty staff to provide you with excellent service. Imagine “Survivor with maids and butlers”.

We are roughly equidistant from Singapore and the equator so the climate is tropical and the monsoons mild year-round. The sea breeze keeps everybody comfortable and we entertain 365 days a year. We suggest bringing a light jacket during the winter months of January and February - which might come in useful on the ferry. Otherwise a sarong and swimsuit will do fine.

The majority of our guests are expatriates based in Singapore and we also have guests who travel long distances to celebrate with family and friends on special occasions. Our Singapore ‘jump-off point’ is Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal, which is about 15 minutes away from Changi Airport.
