Labrador Villa

The moment I stepped in the room, I’m immediately filled with the most zen feeling as the smell of peppermint is so strong and intense, which of course makes me went into complete relaxation. There’s no bug in the room and to add to it, there’s only the sound of wind ruffling with the trees, birds and insects which is why I love it even more since most of my childhood was spent living at pulau ubin. Relatable experiences just a tab more comfortable in Villa Samadhi. Besides the occasional footsteps and loud talkings when someone walks past, if not the experience will be perfect. All the staffs are nice and helpful. Breakfast can be improved with more varieties and just a note that the Nasi lemak packed in the small packet can include chicken drumsticks or wings instead of chicken shredded pieces. Nevertheless, breakfast were prepared with quality (especially the mains that u get to choose from the menu). Special thumbs up for the seafood fried rice which I had ordered for dinner! Pineapple fried rice was good too! Unsheltered free parking for guests. The room is well decorated, clean bed and bathroom, facilities aspect of the room is all in. A pity I can’t get later check out as the room has been booked for the day, if not an hour or 2 can really add to my experiences in nature. In any case, am looking forward to my upcoming visit to Samadhi again in May to celebrate my birthday! A much needed quality, quietness and peace in the nature for my next respite.

Great Location with a Few Minor Drawbacks Booked this for mom and dad! The hotel is just a 5-minute walk from the Sentosa Express, which offers free rides to VivoCity mall, making it super convenient. It's also close to MRT stations and bus stops. One thing to note: the hotel only provides full room service if you stay for at least five nights. For shorter stays, they change towels and restock toilet paper every other day. The bed was unusually high compared to most hotels—I actually had to climb up to get in! Their room faced a cemetery which they weren't very happy with. Mom and dad loved the swimming pool and used it almost everyday. The rooftop bar offers stunning views of VivoCity, the Sentosa Gateway, and the surrounding area. There were many great food options nearby. A small note on water: the hotel provides two complimentary bottles on the first day. Singapore’s tap water is safe to drink, but if you’re not used to it, it might cause stomach issues. To be safe, consider buying bottled water from FairPrice in VivoCity. Overall, they enjoyed their stay! The only downsides were the unusually high bed. But these were minor issues in an otherwise pleasant experience.

Staying in this hotel was a nightmare to me and my partner. TONS of different types of insects around the room (my partner got a ton of bites on his leg) and the shower sucks. Totally NOT worth for the price. Recep lady was really really sweet though - she should be promoted for her kindness and service even though it’s just a 2 star hotel. We got a free upgrade to the nearby hotel - Hotel Faber Park instead and it was so much better! Lesson learnt - Pay a little bit more for quality and satisfaction. Hotel Faber Park was actually the nicest stay out of all the hotels we stayed. Cleaner ladies was so so sweet, Recep was really nice too - always greets us whenever we are at the lobby.

Singapore Weather: What U.S. Travelers Need Know

Welcome to Singapore, where it’s like summer 24/7! Expect warm temperatures year-round, usually between 77–90°F. It’s a tropical city, so the weather is pretty predictable: sunny mornings, occasional afternoon showers, and warm nights.

Rain here isn’t your light drizzle—it’s a full-on tropical downpour. Pack a small umbrella or rain poncho for sudden showers, but don’t worry—they rarely last long. Lightweight clothes like shorts and breathable shirts are a must, and comfy, water-friendly shoes are a lifesaver.

Travel Tip: Stay hydrated and take breaks indoors when it gets too steamy. Whether it’s sunny skies or a quick rainstorm, Singapore’s tropical vibe makes every day an adventure!
