It was our wedding anniversary last Friday. Hubby and I have been married for 4 years. When hubby asked what I wanted this year as a present, I told him all I needed was a straight 9 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Hahahah. So to spend some time together, we checked ourselves into Siloso Beach Resort at Sentosa over the weekend. Yes, I got to sleep more than 9 hours in a stretch. Nice and peaceful.


The hotel was quite secluded. But that made it nice and quiet. Unlike Rasa Sentosa, Siloso Beach Resort has much less activities as they have less guest rooms. This was what it looked like outside our window. We were quite lucky as we were blessed with good sunny weather on both Saturday and Sunday.

The hotel pool was lovely. There was a huge waterfall with 2 slides. At the corner of the pool were some jacuzzi jets. The pool was also surrounded by small pavilions where we could just bum around. We went swimming on both days after a short dip at the nearby beaches. It's quite a nice place for family with kids too. We'll be bringing Yee Sinn the next time we decide to come here again.

This was one of my favourite place throughout our 2 days stay. As we got the room at a promotional rate of $209++ due to the Singapore Tourism Board existing promotion, our room didn't come with any complimentary newspaper. Though it would have been lovely to spend my Sunday morning lazing around here reading the papers.




We explored the island a little bit on Saturday evening. We hang around the central beach where most activites were. We found out there was a free animal show going on at the nearby so we decided to check it out. Not as impressive compared to the Singapore Zoo but it was still entertaining nevertheless. Here's hubby posing with an albino snake.


On Saturday evening, we decided to try out the Luge. We had to take the ride up a hill before we "luge" our way down. We managed to see some pretty sight of the sun setting. On the whole, the Luge ride was fun. If only our hotel stay came with unlimited rides.
