It was summer of 2008 when we had our first staycation at Siloso Beach Resort. We haven't had our PR status then so hubby and I thought of treating Kyla to a short stay in the resort so that when she goes home to the Philippines, she'll bring back beautiful memories with her.
Kyla playing with the computer's keyboard at the resort's reception while daddy is checking in.
Long queue. If i'm not mistaken, it was a long weekend period which explains why a lot of people came for a summer beach treat.
We didn't have a reservation because it was a spur of the moment decision but we were lucky enough to get a room that has two single beds which we joined together when we slept.
I loved the bay window! It was very relaxing to see the greeneries outside.
The view was simply breathtaking! I am referring to the outside view, not us. LOL! In fact, the beach is visible when you stand up by the window.
Kyla was in a hurry to go for a swim but since we don't have a bay window with such a beautiful view at our place, we ask her to join us in our bay window photoshoot. If you have been following my blog, you'll know by now that hubby and I are camwhores so please bear with me posting too many family photos. This blog is also intended to let my family in the Philippines see our HAPPYnings here. At least I have a valid excuse, right? LOL!
Before we left for a swim, I let hubby pose in front of the flat TV. I intented to show it for people who might want to stay in the resort after reading this blog entry. Ahem, another great excuse. LOL! Btw, the room was equipped with clean rest room with bathtub. You don't want me to show that to you, am I right? LOL!
Ok, had enough of camwhoring. Time to swim!
...and make our water lover girl happy.
The pool is surrounded by lush greenery. FYI: Siloso Beach Resort is the only Eco resort residing on the beautiful island of Sentosa.
After swimming and a quick rest,we went out to the beach in time for sunset.
FYI: Sitting at the heart of Singapore's hippest beach - Siloso Beach in Sentosa, the resort's strategic location and lush foliage within its surroundings, guests find themselves faced with a strewn of choices. Bay-windows looking out to white sandy beach rooms, a walk away to the beach, various entertainment outlets and activity booths located along the beach's stretch, offers both scenic and convenient leisure. ~ http://www.silosobeachresort.com/
After dinner, we went out again to check out the night life in the beach.
We spent a couple of minutes lying in the sand to watch the twinkling stars. I found it romantic inspite of having a third party. We had sweet dreams in our cozy room thereafter.
After the complimentary breakfast the next morning, we brought Kyla to the beach again. She had fun racing with the waves.
Hubby and I enjoyed watching her having the time of her life as we took the chance to have ours as well. :)
When Mr Sun became too hot to handle, we went back to the resort.
We took a rest near the pool...
...then we went up to check out the rooftop. Ahhhhh, life is great!
Enjoy the only natural spring water landscape pool in Singapore, complete with a waterfall feature, while relaxing amongst the balmy shades of flora to the soothing sounds of cascading waters. There are rooftop garden suites complete with rooftop bath, the only kinds in Singapore. ~ http://www.silosobeachresort.com/

Experience an ideal getaway, for honeymooners and lovers in the mood for a romantic getaway or holidaymakers in search of tranquility on an island beachfront. ~ http://www.silosobeachresort.com/
