Sky on 57 Breakfast Buffet

ABBEY: After a good night sleep at a very homey room in Marina Bay Sands, we headed to level 57 for breaking the fast. We were given a good seat by their beautiful staff, Jennie ( I don't know if I spelled her name right). I indulge myself on bacon and eggs ( egg benedict, ). 

I also tried their pasta, fried rice and congee. Indeed, it was a good morning; waking up with your loved one and together spending time for breakfast. A buffet costs 38sgd++ including drinks.






















WILL: Every hotel I stayed, I am always looking forward to breakfast buffet that they will offer to their guests. But breakfast in Marina Bay Sands room rate is not included. After Abbey heard that he immediately asked me to make a reservation to The Rise, since we experienced the buffet dinner here courtesy of my boss in Rejoice Container, a really unforgettable free dinner.

      We experienced The Rise buffet and I am up to another experience, so I want to dine overlooking the bay and the busy port of Singapore so I chose to dine here at Sky 57. I am an enthusiast of import/export, I love to see cargo ships sailing, transtrainer busy loading and discharging the container, and it will be a great view for me if we eat-in at Sky on 57.
      For $38++ you can savor the very delectable egg benedict and tonokotsu ramen, croissants "croque madam", cappuccino and hot chocolate (available by order). On the table, your eyes and tummy can feast with the crispy bacons, breads, sausages, every fruits you can imagine, salad, cheeses, and even the yogurt.
      From 7AM to 10AM you can sit there and fill in your stomach with their delights. Salute to their lovely and very approachable waiter and waitresses.
      Thanks Sky on 57, you made our MBS staycation really unforgettable.

Marina Bay Sands Infinity Pool

ABBEY: When we went to Sands Sky Park, I only saw a part of the pool. I can't believe when I was already there having a dip at the "infinite" water structure. 

We got there on a Sunday and we expected a jam-packed pool. Everyone flashes a smile and taking snaps. Since we haven't got a place yet, we went for a dip in their jacuzzi that also has a good view from the top. 

But the best experience is when we had the pool to ourselves at 6am. While everyone is asleep we were there taking pictures; and I can say that they're great. The place is serene and the water is calm and soothing.














WILL:  What about a pool with a view of skyscrapers? Extraordinary isn't? Well this is what the infinity pool of Marina Bay Sands here in Singapore offers its hotel guests. 
       From the 57th storey,you can swim at this 500-foot long pool, while intoxicating yourself in the views of Merlion, Esplanade and Art Science Museum. Indeed a majestic scenery of structures this can offer. 
       You can enter and enjoy this privilege, just present your keycard and pool card to the staff and you can stay there from 6am-10pm. They also offer jacuzzis; in there, while the hydro-therapy is going against your body, please gaze at the beautiful Gardens by the Bay. 
       Nicest shot here was taken from 0600-0630.

Marina Bay Sands Hotel Accommodation - Promotion 2012

ABBEY: This is a long-awaited nightout with my wife. Marina Bay Sands had promotional room rates and it coincides on my birthday month. A deluxe room costs 422sgd for a night stay (this doesn't include breakfast). So after our major activity at the office, I look forward relaxing in the arms of Marina Bay Sands. We got there by their airport shuttle at Changi Terminal 2 and checked in at 3pm. 

We were given a room at 24th floor with a view of Gardens by the Bay. The bed is comfy and bathroom is classy. Upon arrival, I indulge in a cup of coffee while my wife on tea. It was a nice stay. I rested well and got enough sleep. I felt revived and rejuvenated. I just wish that we could stay there a little bit longer. 

By 11am we checked out and ended our rendezvous.























WILL: Lo and behold! After Abbey's two years of asking me to have a staycation at this prestigious hotel and considered one of the icons now of Singapore we already stayed of 2D1N in this great structure. 
      Why I never booked before? I really do not see the value of my money for a one night stay, but because Abbey is a member of Sands Rewards, he get the sales and discounts at The Shoppes and with the MBS Room Rates. We read the email and immediately checked how much we can save from the original room rate of almost S$650 a night. We booked for a discounted price of S$350++ and immediately received a confirmation email. A week before your stay, they will send another email for you to fill up a form to expedite your check-in. Stretched out and to experience the whole package in booking a room, we went to Changi Airport Terminal 2 to avail their free coach. Like a boss lei! Haha. For 30mins we arrived the hotel queue for less than 10mins and then we set in our feet in one of Abbey's great wish. 
      As we turned on the tv, my husband's full name appeared and welcoming him. TWG is their complimentary tea, free wifi and an exceptional free coffee for Abbey. We stayed at 24th floor and our view from our room is the Gardens by the Bay. 
     This is a nice experience. Really! We check-out at 11am after a sumptuous buffet breakfast at Sky on 57. They billed a total amount of $422.54 on Abbey's credit card. Worthy! 
     Till next stay MBS ;)
