My guess would be at least more than 150k rupiah when you are talking about Barelang ,moreover its at a ferry terminal taxi booth,so its like an open target board for the taxi driver to fire (cant blame them,imagine go up with you so far downward and coming back with an empty car plus the total time lost). It can cost anytime up to 300k rupiah if not more, but then again...why pay when you can ride for free? Just give Harris a call (or an email)...go to Mega Mall shop for a little more than an hour,then go to their designated pick up location for them to pick you up...hehehe...easy. Most of these pick up deals will have a driver holding and walking around with an A4 sign board with your name on it. So its easy to see them,hehehe... (if i am in your postion,i will pay venus a visit and burnt 2+ hours there,while waiting for them,make sure you have an indo mobile number tho.Its just an option which i might take,tho its not free)
For me,i will definitely head to Nagoya area 1st,pick up all the barang,like tit bits,drinks etc from some provision shops or marts before heading there. Dont expect a new resort to have convenient stores and if there is a chance when there's one,it wont come cheap or be conveniently located,hehehe...not forgetting the girls too.
Speaking base on my experience from KTM resort,hehehe...

Batam's traffic and its routes is hard to judge ,bro...i took a taxi to Sekupang KTM resort quite a few times,most time it took more than 30 mins to get there but upon return it took less than 20mins. Anyway, below is a map for your rough estimation (i took the rough location of each ferry terminal in Batam from page one of this thread) :
Base on the map,i dont think from Nongsa to Harris Barelang is any nearer.

Perhaps Sindo is their preferred partner?
If there is any promo between Sindo and Harris Barelang,do keep us posted tho,thanks.
I am looking at their Villa for rent,and if i am not wrong,there might be a private in-room swimming pool,hehehe...but what i hear is Harris Barelang only has 2 Villa. I'm still looking through for more information.
