Birthday Staycation at Oasia Hotel

*Sponsored Stay*

Gd day dblchinis!

I had a weekend staycation over at Oasia hotel few weeks ago all thanks Silver.

Blogging is seriously an amazing tool, u get to know this person before u even get to meet him/her.
This is what happens to silver and me. OK scratch that, I actually met Silver the very first time at Benefit makeup event, she might not know who I am but I already know of her online presence also as a media personality for quite a while already. Pretty much a stalker? I know right.

Well...We talk a little during the event and that's all about it.
Little did I know that we will be hanging out with each other at cafe joints chatting like old friends.we clique really well.
Pssst, I'm still stalking her blog.
Anyways, is an honor to be spending my birthday weekend at Oasia hotel together with my Husband.

My first impression of Oasis is calm and peaceful looking.
Like wtf right, what kind of description is that? how can a non-living look calm?

Well...Thanks to the Japanese architects, they designed this building in such a way is so zen that one look at it you know is a mixed of minimal, simplistic elements like woods and stones.

Nothing too majestic, no elaborate chandeliers nor fancy wall papers, just deep timbers and rocks and something closer to earth.
With all that tranquility, it already felt like vacation.

Oasia hotel is very popular among young Singaporeans that yearn for a getaway at home, away from home.
Situated at the heart of Town (well...almost), Oasia Hotel is easily accessible by train, it takes less than 5 minutes to walk from Novena MRT.
but If you choose to get to the train station by somersaulting I believed 10 flips should be sufficient, any further you may just override the gantry.

Oh did I mention the best thing about this place?
A stone throw away from 2 major shopping malls: Velocity and Novena Square 2, a great heaven for the ladies.


We check-in the club lounge located at level 22, which is only accessible for Club room and Club suite guests.
Oasia hotel has 4 room types in terms of hierarchy; Club suite, Club room, Deluxe room and Superior Room
My hubby and I were most delighted to be given privilege to stay in one of the club rooms at level 25.




I was greeted with a glass of refreshing drink as a welcome gesture.



When we check-in to our room, I was delighted to find out the there is actually a small surprise waiting for me! Omg Look! I'm pretending to cry!


Yes my very first advance birthday cake of 2012! Thanks Oasia, you really made my day!



I wasted no time in camwhoring with my strawberry shortcake.


Never been happy slicing that piece of cake~

Cake please, not that cleavage.


Now back to the room, take notice of main textures filling with wood.
I'm loving the hazelnut colours that overwhelmed the rooms, even the bed runner is in a rich shade of golden brown.

Panning into the extreme (bottom) right picture , you notice a full length bay window presenting the spectacular landscape of Singapore.

A great way to sit by the ledge and relax.


The bathrooms is amazing such that you get rain showers, long baths and luxurious amenities to enjoy.








Freshly washed apples at lift landings for guests to munch on.


Later my Hub and I went down to the the Club Lounge (@ level 22) also known as 'The Living Room' for a short briefing and to get an insight of the hotel better.

We basically covered the Club Suites as well as the other rooms (Deluxe & Superior) during our tour.


Club Suites

Classy, simply and rich is all I have to say, I mean look at those panels right behind that dunno-how-many-inch-TV. How intricate it looks, these Japanese craftsmen are superb beings.
This suite is like as big as my flat, damn.



The common toilet.


Bedroom, quite the same as mine (hotel room) but with additional set of window dividers.


this round Cove lighting sets the ' I am very peaceful mood' for the room.
Sorry that U spotted the air vent.


Master toilet with a pair of basin.
No fighting is necessary.






Rain shower with cove light emitting from the top, a good way to make sure you you don't miss any spot while lathering.


Central controls that looks high tech with complicated buttons.
OK I ADMIT, This room superbly designed, I'm just JEALOUS I didn't get a chance to stay in it.



Now we are down to Level 19 the Deluxes.



wah rau!!! Completely Jealous!
checkout the wall papers, at that moment I wished I could rip this thing off and use it as a backdrop for my living area.

The plum-ish seat pads at the window bay matches so well with the throw cushions, I totally dig the combination.
This is what it is called jazzing up the zen.



The only difference between Deluxe and Superior rooms are, the former is equipped with Martello® coffee making facilities & iPod docking entertainment system.
Guests feeling a 'want' more than a 'need' for these luxury items may choose to go for the former. Glass half empty or half full? It all depends on how u see it.



Gym Facilities, Saunas, pools... You name it, they have it.

This alien looking thing on the right here is the key feature to this gym room.
I can smell the fresh, new and not overly used equipment, lucky no sweaty armpits or hairy chest if not I might just make the wrong judgement.





Next is the place where I would like to immediately perform my swan dive.
Yes you are very correct, the Pool!!!!
No prize for guessing it right, no punches for guessing it wrong either.



A place to clean yourself thoroughly before dipping in, usually I'll skip this step coz I no sweaty armpits or smelly chest.
If any of the above option is deemed doubtful about yourself, please step under and give yourself a good rinse.


spend a great afternoon to enjoy the breeze and relaccccc only.



On the way to checkout their meeting rooms



Before that, Toilet break first.





Nice lavish courtyard with bar stands wrapped in shades of ruby red. I feel like calling out for waiter to hand me a glass of Martelle. Very funny, I'm not even into hard liquor, just pretend atas niah like how my ah pah want to wear Rolex out like that.


This is the outside.

Very descriptive indeed.

Then I was led to a very Chamber-like looking room that the moment I step in I felt I could perform Harry Potter right away.

These shelves are truly amazing, they gave me a homely feel that I had never come across with other function rooms.


Nothing much, just chilling out with the lift.
I had to hog on the 'open' button in order to get a good shot of myself getting mirrorcepted. Damn, I'm good isn't it?!



Bey Bio Bey Bio 2506



These bedroom slippers are one of the most comfiest ones that I have ever come across, I almost stole them.



1 staycation + 1 Lingerie = a pair of sexy chest.




you know of all the sensual talk, I had to suddenly jump right back to an undesirable man reading the news. Like, Who m I kidding seriously?
ok I promise only one (or maybe a few more to go) pic of him sitting right there reading intently to the newspaper like he never come across one before.

ok la on a 2nd thought, I have to say the intensity of his expression is pretty much captured.

After spending a good afternoon in our hotel rooms and strolling around the vicinity, we suddenly realized our stomachs are calling out to us.
So we decided to get dress and head to 'The living room' for appetizers and a glass of wine, 2 glasses in fact.

My evening outfit, Maxi dresses one of my favourite and the easiest silhouette form.


I'm not sure if this pic with the intensified man is ok with you but I decided to put it up anyways.



Ok what is this? I seriously dun care, my main purpose is to eat and your job is to watch me eat.


This one i know, Chocolate tarts.



This one I duno but I can vaguely make out the defocus words, it says ' Marinated Feta with semi dried Tomato'. Still, I might be wrong, correct me.


Awesome dip.


Alcohol not for the weak hearted.



Oh no, I'm NOT sorry is that man again.
Tell me honestly, do u actually enjoy seeing my husband giving that intensifying expression? I may have used up all the related forms of 'intense' but that doesn't stop me for saying it.


Hey where is the picture I tried to camwhore with the glass of deep red wine?

Nevermind, lets move on.

Zaffron offers a huge range of buffet spread.




Table for 2?


Zaffron Offers dining pleasures with a fusion mix asian and western culture.

Pastas


Freshly cooked seafood.


Chinese


Chilli crab, salivating as I type this.
Y at this hour? *slamming the keyboard at 2:30AM*


Corns and mixed western style vegetables.


Salad bars.





Condiments to suit your tastebuds.


Olives? No thanks, get me the one on its right.


Desserts, jello.



Here's my share for the night, carbs I know.
I'm cutting down the portion nowadays since I don't burn that much at nights.


Sushi




Ice-cream from Cold stone Creamy, Delightful!


Eclairs.



and
plenty of fruits, can better digest before I dip in the pool tomorrow.



Tomatoes
I know right, I'm really suited for side kicking. Hey man, this is main deal for me baby!


chillers to keep fruit stay fresh


4 times zoom into my favourite vegetable fruit.



Crazy Moments before we dim the lights.



This Rice Bran Oil Soap is seriously good! Smells great and lathers well!!!
I am afraid to say that I had shamelessly took one bar (actually 2) home.


Oh btw this is a sneak peak of me wearing the latest Les Affaires Lingerie, I have more pics coming up in my another post, stay tune.

Paiseh, no makeup but still look passably chio la huh.


I'm really good at leaving you high and dry, first was the almost seductive in lingerie look and suddenly ....
WHAM BAM! comes the &#$@^$^%$&$%#$@$!@ about to go market in robe accompanied with the larger than life retarded expression. swee~


Forgive me laaa, Actually we are heading to the The private pool at 'The living room' available only to club room/suites guests.


This long stretch of pool almost looks like infinity but don't even attempt to swim like forever coz You'll realize you come to a stop before you know it.

Actually I didn't dare to step in the pool coz the water too icy cold.

So I chose to soak myself in the heated Jacuzzi instead.



Le husband biting on a piece of preserved mango.
He looks like he's enjoying it but apparently the lines on his forehead is giving it away.


Exclusive Club Guests can enjoy undisturbed moment regardless whether is just sun bathing by the decks or just simply sipping away their afternoon beverages.






Then I discover.... an ASS CRACK?!
Dun tell me somebody so liberal until take off the whole thing....


Actually hor, is the husband flexing while reading 'The Secret'

Top view of the public pool for all other hotel guests.



Relaxing.



Tell you something really amusing, I shooting a megazillion post of myself giving the peace sign like this until...


I accidentally capture a shot of myself sticking one finger into my nostril.
This is pure Law of Attraction.



Later We hop on the the publicly accessible pool for all hotel guests and went for a dip and try to swim like a pro. All the other ang mos just wana get tann nia, so no need to fight for pool space.




I have to say I truly enjoyed my stay at Oasia Hotel, it is definitely a great getaway from my busy work life to complete relaxation even for just one weekend. Of course This is definitely not possible without Silver's recommendation.
