Short trip from Singapore

Visiting Singapore for work and want to take advantage of the opportunity and explore the area. I was thinking of 4-5 days exploring Singapore and then 2-3 in more unique/nature/tropical setting. I've read that Bintan and other Riau islands are not worth it and Bali is overcrowded. Any recommendations?

Hi all, visiting Singapore for work and want to take advantage of the opportunity and explore the area. I was thinking of 4-5 days exploring Singapore and then 2-3 in more nature-tropical setting. I've read that Bintan and other Riau islands are not worth it and Bali is overcrowded. Advice?
