Genting dream cruise day 1 and 2.

Day 1
Check in was a breeze for suite guests. Arrived at Marina Bay Cruise centre at 1250pm and was directed to the VIP lounge. Before I could try the banana fritters and donut, we were told we could board the ship!
The Gold card for suite guests

VIP lounge with light refreshment



Completely awed by the size of our Palace suite 16008 with a separate living room and a second toilet! Our toilet was already big with double sinks, a bath tub and a separate shower! Mini bar is free for the first stock consisting of 2 cans of beer, coke, sprite, orange fanta, Pringles potato chips, mixed nuts and crunchy oats.











The cookies and chocolate are nice. Managed to finish the grapes, mango and bananas but could not finish the prune, plums, pear, apples, orange and guava.

  
Love the coffee making machine. Thick and nice.  Made at least 2 cups a day.











Love the USB port chargers, two at each side of the bed. There is a dedicated line to our butler from the phone in our room as well a portable phone.



As our living room is above the bridge, the full length window view from the living room was amazing though the one from our bedroom balcony is good too!





VIP restaurant not opened for lunch so we went to Genting Dining room. Not impressed. Cold and hard appertizer. But Hubby said the rest are good, better than RC Chinese food. I like the soup though.
Genting club for suite guests. It has a casino and you can order food from its 24 hr menu. This is also where we have to pass through to reach our room. The whole area is guarded and the security guard will check our card before letting us in. There is also a dedicated lift to the swimming pool for suite guests only from here.



The private pool for suite guests. A real plus to our stay. No screaming kids.. so peaceful here.


main pool area which is at the same level as our suite.

Coffee and snacks for tea. Our Butler Alice is so friendly and helpful. She would help us to arrange for the restaurant or even bring in our tea and supper. She would also bring us to the theatre where the seats for suite guests have been reserved. I was able to contact her via the portable phone given. 





Went to the captain viewing bridge. Passed through the painting gallery and casino. Explored the ship before dinner.





The private pool for suite guests.















The photo booth at the arcade. Hubby not keen but will be real fun to get a couple or group photo fun shots here.


 


As our room is the first room forward, it's really a great view from the living room. Tea set is interesting. Hubby watching soccer in the bedroom so I am using the TV in the living room to see the program for today.  






Very good dinner @ Mark Best Bistro. Complimentary set for dream palace guests. Ordered oyster at $8 each. Love the steak and dessert. Good service too.









Grateful being a suite guest as our Butler will bring us into the theatre for the show where the best seats were reserved for suite guests.

Surprised that the show China got Talent is quite entertaining. Performers are from China, mainly acrobatics. Must applaud their years of training as all went through hardship to achieve the standard of performance shown.













Thankful for the complimentary wifi and premium drink package. Love the passion fruit martini recommended at the Genting Club bar. The boulevardiar and expresso martini more bitter. Cut the mango and tried the orange , peach and grape...nice.




Ordered the Peking duck from silk restaurant sent to the room by our Butler. Love it! Totally worth the $29. The meat is fried with bean sprout whereas the skin wrapped with spring onion and cucumber in egg crepe. 





Day 2

Taken @ the balcony. Today's program a bit disappointing. They are repeating yesterday's show.



Going for breakfast alone as hubby is still sleeping. Breakfast at Genting club. Love the porridge with chicken floss. The small cookie which came with the coffee is so buttery and nice. The orange juice is too diluted and the Cheong fun too hard.



French Martini, orange juice , Cappuccino inclusive in the premium drink package. Items on the menu in Genting club available 24hr other than breakfast, lunch and dinner. Too bad the items we ordered never came and it was time for lunch.



The menu available 24 hrs in Genting Club

Lunch at Genting club. YunNan noodle ok. Love the crabmeat cake. My pork loin too hard. Kueh so hard I thought it's fake.






Enjoying a dip in the hot water tub in the private pool area for suite guests. Too cold to swim. Went back to the room as it started to rain. Howling in my room now as the rain is heavy.


We ordered the high tea and enjoyed it in our room.





Dinner part 1 at Blue Lagoon. Hubby love his nasi lemak and my chicken rice is nice too. The Kang Kong is nice but portion too large. Ordered the complimentary cocktail sidecar from the bar next to it. Enjoying the wonderful music from advanced duo performing at the lobby which is just below us.








Dinner part 2 at Hotpot. The beef is better than the pork. Not so impressed with the soup base.



Ordered two more cocktails and brought it to our room. Cosmopolitan taste better than Tommy Margarita.



Live band Love bugs at the pool. Love their music... So much better than the dazzle trio in bar 360.

  


Went for dream girl performance-Too bad no photography allowed. Waiting in our room watching a Movie before butler bring us down to silk restaurant for the show.
Supper after the cabaret show. Cabaret show was a disappointment. Masquerade party in the lobby.
