I went for Holiday on May 2010. Celebrating my mate's Birthday (yes,a person who always traveled with me. We stayed at Siloso Hotel in Sentosa Island, since it's close to Universal Studio Singapore (USS). Well the hotel is not so fancy and i think it's quite expensive..around USD 170/night (that time).Breakfast are great, they have lots of optionals. It took 10 minutes by shuttle bus from hotel to monorail that will take u to USS.
USS it self quite fun (this is my first visit), but not as big as in Japan. And that time it wasn't completely operate, madagascar and jet coaster still not operate. we start from 10am to 5pm, merchandise store are quite expensive (for me) but the good things are they gave u meal voucher and merchandise voucher (means like it or not u have to buy things).
Yep, this the only pics i keep in my bb. But i took lots of pics there on my second visit ;p
After went to USS we went to Casino and play some $1 game. i spent $7 and get $16 from casino..Lucky us. Actually now there is bigger casino in Marina Bay Sands, more luxury and place are awesome. U should take a look if u visit Singapore. Well like other tourists, i went to Singapore for Shopping. Especially Charles & Keith shoes which are way more cheaper than in Indonesia. I usually go to Charles & Keith outlet in Queenstown (in front of IKEA). They always give discounts.
After Singapore i went to Bintan Island. Most of people think Bintan Island owned by Singapore, actually it's still owned by Indonesia (i said still,maybe in the future they will sell it..LOL). Bintan actually a great escape. But since it's close to Singapore, everything are expensive for me as Indonesian citizen..:D (follow Singapore living cost standard). Foods are great and it has beautifull beach (soft brown sands).We stayed in Nirwana Garden Hotel & Resort, It's a nice hotel and good hospitality too.I reccomend this Hotel for u who plan to spend holiday in Bintan Island
That's me in Nirwana hotel & Resort Private Beach.
It took 1 hour by Ferry from Singapore Tanah merah harbor. and Hotel also provide shuttle bus. So i recommend u to book hotel first before u come to Bintan.It was a happy holiday..but at the end of my trip..I lost my camera on my way home to Jakarta. So sad :(
Yes, you are right…this place makes you want to back for more!! I would love to stay a Bintan hotel and just rejuvenate with the sound of the sea.
