Sentosa Stayover - 6/7/8 Oct

On 6 Oct, my uncle-in-laws check in to Sentosa Silo Beach Resort after visiting Genting, a continuation trip from Hong Kong. He like that place so much that he decided to forgo his booking at Furama Hotel and extended his stay at Sentosa. We visited him for dinner and we both felt in love with that place too and decided to stayover for a day. We left that evening and went home to get ready for another eventful day at Sentosa.

On 7 Oct, we woke up early in the morning and went over to our favourite Lor Mee Stall at Old Airport Rd Market for our breakfast. Soon, we drove in to Sentosa and parked our car at the Resort. Since, it is not check-in time, we visited my uncle-in-law.

Sydney and all my cousin-in-law has already woke up. Here she did a pose for us. She study in an international school in Jarkata. So, she can converse in English and it is much easier for me.

We went around the hotel area and lit ooks different in the day.

Soon, we join the entire group to visit the Luge Station to get the skate down experience. We passed by the cafe and while waiting for the tram, I took some photo.

Some beautiful flowers captured my attention and I switch to MACRO mode and caught these close-up images.

Soon, we decided that we shall not wait for the tram and took a scroll down to the Beach Station. This is where the Luge Station is. Paid and took a ride on the sky-train. Quite scarely though and I am impressed that my wife handled it well. She has a problem with height. The view was quite good and lucky enough that it was rather cloudy, so we did enjoyed the breeze on high grounds.


After the Luge race, we scrolled back to the hotel and stopped by the bicycle shop. We decided to rent the bicycle and this is our RED FERRARI. While returning the bicycle, I spotted this peacock and took a shot of it.

Finally, it is time to check-in. We went over to the reception located at this treehouse and got our keys. WOW!!!! RFID enabled meaning is touch and go. Not the usual slot card kind of key system.

YES YES YES!!! We got a free upgrade from standard room to deluxe room. The rate is SGD 221.00 per nite inclusive of breakfast. While walking back from the reception, I took this shot. Most rooms has door facing this greenery and waterfall that is connecting to the swimming pool.


Wow!!! Our room is just right outside the waterfall!!!

Opened the door and this is our room 504.


Oh. I decided to took this shot to remind me of a client who has called me during this period and got me working at Sentosa. This is my temporary command post setup to serve him. Haaa!!! I am sure if he read this, he will be damn mad at me!!!

Time for lunch. Sent an SMS to my client as I am too hungry to wait. Shall continue after lunch. Took the tram to Beach Station and change the Express Train to go to VIVO. This is the scenery around the Beach Station. Anyway, we got a unlimited entry pass for 3 days.


Reached VIVO and had Tim Sum at Food Republic. The standard has went down. 8(

On the way back, my wife spotted this interesting sight and I took a picture of it. This guys has a amazing out-grown of hair on his ear!!!! Seeing is believing.

Went back to the hotel to serve my client. Finally the work is done and I came out of my room and took this shot of the swimming pool.


I walked over to the beach and found this very nice drinking place. I definitely want to chio my drinking kakis to come here for a drink.

Do you feel thirsty now? Please help yourself with these supplies of coconut. 8)

Now, my wife has joined me at the beach and we walked further down and found my cousin-in-law building sand castle! Say cheese!!! Ha, got one shot of them only with their underwear. Will demand for money when they grow older.

And bottoms-up!!!! Haaaaa!!! They did it!!!! This one will worth alot of money.


Went back to our room to washup and we met for dinner. We came to this restuarant that serve very nice laska. Lobster Laska for SGD 16.90. Sydney pose for me and I took a shot of this cute little girl. Her brother Kevin always like to destroy the shot. Sigh.


After dinner, I bought tickets for all to watch the Song of the Sea. I felt bad that my uncle-in-law paid for all the expenses so far and we are certain that he will not accept payment for our room. Song of the Sea is a musical with fireworks, laser show and musical fountain all in one. The effect is great but the storyline wasn't that fantastic. One more point to add, I think they are not using sufficient actor/actresses and the stage really look empty.

Below are some video clips of the show.

After the show, we all went back to our room and rest.

I woke up at 5.00am to work and by 7.30am, we are at the cafe doing breakfast. They have very nice congee.

Soon, we all check-out from Sentosa and drove to Changi Airport. We called cab to take the rest to the airport as my car can only fit 5 including myself.

Soon, we bid farewell and I guess the next time we meet will be at Jarkata over Chinese New Year.
