Singapore

Less than four miles southwest of Singapore, Kusu is one of the Southern Islands. The island, whose name means "turtle" in Chinese, is known for its pristine beaches, as well as several temples. One of these is Kramat Kusu, dedicated to a Malay saint named Haji Syed Abdul Rahman, who, with his mother and sister, is said to have disappeared supernaturally from the island in the 19th century. To reach the shrine, you climb over 100 steps that go up through a forest. Plastic bags containing stones have been hung on the trees by devotees who have come to the shrine to pray for forgiveness of sins and the correction of wayward children. If their wishes are granted, believers return the following year to remove their bags and give thanks.

My family were very impressed with the decor & spaciousness of the room (deluxe room at Valley wing). The toilet is huge with two basins and a big bathtub. The toiletries are from my favourite brand and all the amenities in the room (from real roses, tea, utensils, towels, floor mats,etc) are well thought of and the room is one of the most equipped hotel room that I have ever stayed. Very clean, nice smell, nice & friendly staff... we were simply very pleased with everything in the hotel. Our kids had fun at the Buds & Splash zone. The buffet breakfast at The Line was a wide spread & delicious. This staycation is definitely value for $$ for my whole family and it is one of the best family staycations we had in Singapore! We will definitely be back! Kudos to all the Shangrila Hotel staff for making our stay and my wedding anniversary such a memorable and happy one!

Thrilling experience with a great view. Zip not once but twice! A good timing would be evening when you could zip towards the sunset. SRV (Singapore Rediscover Voucher) could be used for the first time to zip. Special price was offered by the staff if you decide to zip for a second time but take note that SRV vouchers could not be used. Please empty all pockets and belongings (to someone else or put in a locker) before you are taken to the top of the hill via a buggy. A pouch is available for $10 if you decide to take you handphone with you while zipping. A good family activity if one is not frighten of height.

First time staying at the Grand Hyatt using the Singapore Rediscovers Voucher & it was the best stay-cay i’ve ever had in S’pore! Every place I went to was clean & tidy. Staffs including the cleaners were super helpful & friendly. The hotel room i stayed in was so spacious that it even had a living room, & a office table. 2 TVs - 1 in the living room, 1 in the bedroom. The bedroom was so big it could fit 3/4 people. Sauna & jacuzzi was free of charge! Will come back again, definitely.

Really enjoyed the experience, and highly recommend it for adults and children alike! Our guide, Edwin, is very passionate about animals and knowledgeable about them and about how the open zoo concept works in the Singapore zoo. He has many interesting stories to share, and it made our zoo experience one of a kind! Blessed with great weather, we saw animals in their natural element and the morning walk around the zoo also gave us good time to explore the zoo on our own after the tour.
