I count from SG side, so JB maybe slightly different.

Hotel for 1 day + breakie + Ferry.

Ferry = SGD34 (two ways inclusive tax both ways to Harbour Bay)
Hotel = SGD66 (Estimated value if you take a nice hotel, I took 4 star one)

Total = SGD100

Located near disco, easy to town and Harbour Bay. Of course unless if you are after a clean trip, though not to what I think as you ask about girl friendliness. Nongsa, gals might ask a lot for the taxi to go back esp if they stay in Nagoya.

Ferry from JB duty free zone is around RM100 roundtrip. The advertised rate for the Batam View Beach Resort according to their website is SG130 and up. So the package I saw is quite a bargain. But I am still waiting to gather the information for the taxi rate to go in town. And also if I picked a girls from the MP/KTV will the charged me extra for the longer travel hotel. If too ex, the I better off stay in town hotel like the Formosa.
