Pulau Leebong, Private island resort in Belitung, Indonesia
Pulau Leebong is an island resort with white sand beaches, mangrove forests, and private villas spread across tropical grounds. The accommodations sit within a secluded island setting surrounded by natural landscapes and coastal waters.
The resort developed as tourism shifted toward luxury accommodations in Belitung, transforming access to an island area that had previously attracted few visitors. This development reshaped how travelers engage with the region.
The structures use teak wood and traditional alang-alang grass roofs, reflecting local building craftsmanship and how local materials shape the island's appearance.
Visitors fly to H.A.S Hanandjoeddin Airport and arrange ground transport plus a boat transfer to reach the island, coordinated by the resort. Plan for several hours of travel time since the island sits relatively remote from the mainland.
At low tide, shallow sand areas reveal starfish and crabs in tidal pools that appear only temporarily. These natural pools offer a glimpse into the island's coastal marine life during specific windows of the day.
