A Trip to Marina Bay Sands

Few months ago my mom messaged me asking when my holiday is as my brother was planning to go to Singapore Marina Bay Sands Hotel. I had heard about Marina Bay in which Singaporeans celebrate their national day there. There's a floating stage I guess. But I have no idea that we were going to stay in this wonderful building until the day before we went there.

16/12/14

So we actually had problem when we reached the hotel. We couldn't find a proper parking place nearby the hotel. And then only we realized that the hotel provides valet parking service (where the staff would park for you) for hotel guests. If we didn't opt for valet parking service, we'll have to work quite far along the Marina Sands Shoppes. Normally valet parking is QUITE optional, and so we don't consider it because of its expensiveness (we're cheap). The valet parking service staff even opened our car door and asked us to be careful while crossing the road. So much politeness huh.

The building inside was already so WOWing. The architectural design was definitely unique and different from others that I had seen before, considering other luxury hotels like JW Mariott, Grand Millenium in Malaysia, or even hotel in Taiwan such as Ambience Hotel. I like them tho.


Guess what? Fortunately, my brother had purchased 2 club rooms, so we didn't have to queue up (that's a long queueing line LOL). This is the view from the super big window of the rooms. One faces the Garden by the Bay, the other faces the Marina Bay.


Being the Club rooms guests, we were entitled to enjoy the exclusive High Tea Buffet at The Club located at the 57th floor. Besides The Club, there is an infinity edge pool, which is one of the biggest attraction of this hotel.

We were having high tea here. So we were literally having HIGH tea.
The best thing about the buffet was that you can actually order anything you want to drink. There's a quite long list of beverages, ranging from different types of mineral water to champagne, wine and juices.

Then we actually went to the Garden by the Bay, which was quite a pleasant place to go. So what exactly was the Garden by the Bay? I'm so lazy to describe what I've seen. Moreover, they just baffles descriptions. And so, blahblahblah...



I'm gonna introduce this real quick - it's a Man-made Natural-styled Botanical Garden. Well it sounds so much complicated under my summary. I don't mind LOL.

Not to affect its reputation, I'm going to photo-blog much to give you guys an idea.


Even an 'indoor' waterfall is made.








Looks amazing isn't it? In fact its one of the best places to chill, just like what Tanjung can do to us, just that this place is a thousand times cleaner and better. So sorry to say. 

There's a 'skywalk' hung between the supertrees. It is supported by lotsss of wires/strings. And it moves when the wind blows! I had realized that I'm so scared of being at a high position, especially when I'm stepping on a non-concrete floor.

After the garden, we went back to our hotel room. It's just toooo big.
The curtain can be controlled by switches. The A/C is automatically switched if the door is opened.I love this ecofriendly settings.






I wanted a fridge like this.Wines, soft drinks, chocolates, biscuits....what more you want?

TWG Tea Bags, coffee beans and coffee machine....?
 I didn't have chance to snap a photo of the bathroom. But everything is just too luxurious.

Early in the morning, we went up to level 57 again to have our sumptuous breakfast.


When I was taking the photos above, a lady, possibly from Europe, laughed at me. I saw her thumbs up and I can only tell her 'blogger, blogger!' without further explanation LOL. Don't laugh!!

The breakfast buffet was indeed lavish, and of course satisfying.

After breakfast, mum insisted to jump into the pool up there.
So we got our things settled and went up again to level 57.

I love to have rest in a city.That's why I'm here to chill.

Don't peep!
In fact, the water in the morning was way tooooooo cold. I prefer to lie down at the chair or whatever there, reading books or doing nothing. I don't want to do things.



In the afternoon, I would like to spend time visit the shoppes near the hotel. There's an Louis Vuitton Island where I wanted to have some photo shoot there. Gucci, Prada, Rolex...... all the things I couldn't afford. But there is ZARA there. I love ZARA so much.

So we went to Sentosa, because we actually bought tickets for the Madame Tussaud and a underworld something.
I saw this in the internet, claiming that they are coming to Sunway next year.So I decided to have a taste of it before others :P It costs $6 I was like 'what shit is this'
Another overpriced fancy food. Arghhh.

Let's jump to Madame Tussauddd.



I like this photo so much. so #gay.好男人要快搶哈哈哈

Angeline Jolie and Brad Pitt.

I'm not sure who is this lady


Feeling Sexay with Beyonce.


She's in town!!!


Oprahh.

I'm half of his height LOLLL





The Marina Bay Sands Hotel was incredibly extravagant, and unlike my mother and brother I just love it. I love to relax in the middle of hustle bustle of a city.

Holidays are ending soon. I'm so worried.
I'm gonna have a good rest now. Till next time!
