Marina Bay Sands Hotel : Our Stay

This a long over-due post but nonetheless I am excited and thrilled to share some of our experience in Marina Bay Sands. First, I would like to thank www.sg and MICA for this wonderful prize. We stayed in Marina Bay Sands Hotel for four-days-three-nights, last May 14-17, 2011. My family was so delighted with this experience especially my kids. And we were able to share this experience with some friends as well.

As we checked-in were greeted with a pleasant staff and assisted us all the way. The room was nice and just enough for the whole family. My husband and I, two kids, my mother and a nanny fit into the room. So nice!

We did enjoy our stay, the food and of course the infinity pool, where the water meets the sky. The kids loved the pool as every day we go there and spent more than two hours both morning and night time. What I really like about the place, was sitting on the bench beside the infinity pool, gazing on the stars and the sky while mesmerizing how grandeur the structure was, it’s like am having my “dolce far niente”.

We had our buffet breakfast at the Rise and in the Sky on 57. At the Rise, they have a lot of choices, Asian, Western, breads of all sort, juices, you name it I think they have it. It's a big place and lots of foods. Whereas in Sky on 57, food choices were limited but the view was splendid. Having breakfast on the top was a unique experience.

As for the lunch and supper, we tried the restaurant and food court around Marina Bay Sands like Rapasura Masters, Kraze Burgers, etc. And sharing a glass of beer and drinks at Ku De Ta Bar with hubby and friends, in Sand Park overlooking the marina area of Singapore. It was a surreal pleasure!
