Love the stay! 😍 We stayed at Studio Premier Queen Room and it was perfect for my husband and I as they have literally everything! From the kitchen utensils, pots & pans, toaster, chopping board, knifes, they even have microwave! They even have iron & iron board! It really feels like home ❤️

Oh, also they have complete facilities too such as public washing machine, gym, swimming pool, meetinh room & more ~

Citadines Waterfront was conveniently located and is easily found with ease.

The room that I got was moderately spacious but makes movement within the room very comfortable. Gorgeous sunset view by the way.
The bed was large and very comfortable. Plus, I really liked the colour and the decor in the room. It was tastefully done.

Enjoyed using their facilities especially the infinity pool.

I found the Reception Staff to be welcoming, friendly, fast and obliging. The Manager, Maxwell, was very attentive and accomodating too!

I was very happy and pleased with our stay. The only regret was that we couldn't stay longer.

In love with the kitchen area in the room! Either cook by your own or just quickly heat up some foods by the microwave.

Infinity pool is 100% with the magnificent view. Another spot to chill around is the lounge at level 6 and all facilities located same level :)

RECOMMENDED!
