Staying in a hotel is one way of celebrating a birthday of a friend or someone very special. That’s just what we did! We registered for RUPM (Run United Philippine Marathon) the following day and staying at Solaire Resort, being one of the closest hotels, was the best option for us.

We checked the rates online and phoned them, but seemed to be online reservation was the best option in terms of price.  This casino resort hotel from the outside was just gorgeous!

Checked in at 2:00 PM and as we entered the room we were very impressed. We chose the room facing the bay area and the view was beautiful!

A place where everyone could just relax and not think of anything else.

Big TV Screen facing the bed.

Office table in the room.

I love spacious toilets!!!

Check whats in the fridge.

Nuts and cookies for sale.

One thing I always look for in a hotel iss a SWIMMING POOL. I love swimming and sun bathing. Apparently, their pool was newly opened and really couldn’t wait to check it out. Need to walk through this bridge to get to the pool area… Wasn’t it exciting?

The other side of the hotel.

One word: WOW! The most beautiful swimming pool I’ve ever seen.

One thing I look for in a pool is a place where I can do laps. I felt that this pool was cleverly planned. A place where people could relax on the side and others to do laps in the middle.

I love this place!

Gazebos are free to use for the first 3 hours.

View of the bay from the pool area.

There’s so much things to do. Glad we swam! Now time to go back and  check what’s inside the hotel.

Their chandeliers were grand and you see different ones in the hotel!

Who wouldn’t want to have pictures taken at this staircase?

And those chandeliers again! ha ha ha

When we went outside, we were surprised with their fountain as it synchronized with the music and even blew fire! Its was a beautiful fountain! How I wished I could see it from the front.

Entrance of the hotel.

Taxis are available 24/7.

When we checked in, we were given free drink vouchers for this bar. Right in the middle was this glass dragon sculpture. I just stared at it and wishing I could touch it!

Having wine at this bar was the best option to call it a night!

After the run at Mall Of Asia, we went back early to the hotel to eat breakfast. Headed straight to FRESH Restaurant for breakfast. I was starving after the half marathon.

These flowers were so pleasing and relaxing to looked at!

The restaurant was full, but I like how spacious the restaurant was. It didn’t seem to feel very crowded.

I was craving for this for years.. Finally found it!

My breakfast plate No. 1

Breakfast plate No. 2

and the last breakfast plate!!!

View from our room.

I’m very thankful I got this opportunity to visit this place.  We really enjoyed our stay!

Also invited some of our friends to wash up after the run. They were impressed with our room and the hotel itself!

Checked out and what a lovely stay it was. Aside from the place, the staff were very friendly and always greeted us with a smile. Highly recommended hotel not just for casino lovers but to all.

Thanks Solaire Resort, see you in the coming months!
