The aptly named Mayang Sari Beach Resort -- "mayang" means palm blossom and "sari" means flower essence in Indonesian -- is a beachside property that's part of the Nirwana Gardens complex, which comprises five total hotels. This hotel has a bit of a rustic vibe, exemplified by the its wooden chalets, though interior updates have rooms feeling contemporary and attractive. Unfortunately, the the lobby and on-site Spice Restaurant are more traditional and could use a refresh. Some past guests have complained of minor maintenance issues and evident wear. While the resort’s facilities are a bit limited, visitors can access all features at the other Nirwana Gardens hotels. Due to its tranquil setting, the resort is a favorite with couples, many enjoying a weekend away from Singapore, although families can also be seen on the palm-fringed beach. #createwithtrip #staycation
