There are many hotels and places in Singapore that come to mind when I think "luxury". I find downtown Singapore to be an extremely classy place. Even when I'm just walking around there I feel refined and elegant.
Marina Bay Sands is at the top of that luxury list. The hotel includes a shopping mall, an ice skating rink, a theatre, a plethora of dining options, a casino, an Art Science Museum, and a Skypark complete with 3 olympic-sized swimming pools, jacuzzis, and a priceless view of the city. You might recognize the hotel from an earlier
post of mine where I talked about how I wanted to stay there! WELL... after a long search of finding the absolute cheapest price through travel agents for a 2 person room, on Friday (April 8) Emma, Cass, and I took a break from our fairly budgeted yet very blessed exchange student lives and stepped into the life of luxury for 22 hours.
Activities of our slumber party included:
- pretending to be super rich kids while lounging on the skypark deck next to the pool on the 57th story
- taking endless photo shoots documenting the view
|
I didn't get the memo about the leg pop. |
- enjoying freshly made bruschetta (by Cass), tasteful cheeses, olives, and French bread
|
so classy |
- pushing our two double beds together to make a large, incredibly comfortable super bed with fluffy pillows and blankets :)
|
Good morning! |
|
Just being silly. |
- devouring complementary macaroons that we were delightfully surprised to find in our room after our pool session
- walking around the mall and looking at things far out of our price range
- testing the perfume, makeup, and nail polish in Sephora
- wearing our hotel robes and slippers everywhere we could
- hanging out by the bay admiring the view of the city that never ceases to amaze me

- tearing up to a chick-flick
- eating endless amounts of food at the included breakfast buffet
- sipping on fresh lime, lemon, or orange infused water
To wrap it up, it was a very fun and much-need girls night (with a guest appearance from Alex and Toby, but what's a girls night without boys?). I'm soooo grateful for all the things I get to experience!
