We went on a staycation, this time compliments of Resort World over the weekend. We were booked into a family room at the Festive Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, just the 3 of us. The occupancy rate appears so much lower compared to the last time we were there and subsequently upgraded to the Equarius. 

The room is fantastic! With a King size bed, a bunk bed and a sofa bed, it can easily accommodate a party of at least 4. Our room faced part of the pool belonging to the Hard Rock Hotel and even the passageway to the rooms were thoughtfully designed. Although the hotels belongs to the Genting group, a lot of thought have been put in to make each of them unique. You can also imagine the amount of logistics that goes on, as guests can go to any hotel's swimming pool and guests at the Festive have their breakfast at Michael's if they have it as part of their package. As we were given a night's stay, we feel that an additional day would be better. Of course, we'll gladly pay for the additional night. 

I guess we had missed out the evening's activities as we were invited to the Victor's for dinner as 1 of their cousins were going back to Perth. One of the families that we went to Phuket with. Initially, we were of 2 minds whether to go but wanted to pass the family a gift so we ended up being there from about 7 to 9ish.

K doesn't recall the last time we had a staycation at Sentosa. Even though we've had at least 2 there. So it's true. Children don't remember much of what they do when they're very young. So I'm glad to have photographs for memories. We spent the first day lounging at the pool at the Festive and for the second day, hopped on to the shuttle to Hard Rock's pool. We definitely look forward to going back again and the next time, will spend ad additional day to walk around the beautiful Resorts World and the rest of Sentosa.

  1. Oh sounds nice! We've been meaning to try RWS but abit apprehensive coz we imagine it would be quite crowded. I heard the pool is nice for the kids?

    1. We like it! When we were there over the weekend, it wasn't crowded which made the staycation even more enjoyable. Plan for the off-peak periods when you want to go! :)
