Genting Dream Cruise Ship, Singapore

Genting Dream is a ship that is a whopping 335m in length with 18 decks and over 1600 staterooms, much bigger compared to the Star Cruises and Royal Caribbean cruise ships I’ve been on. I was genuinely concerned about the potential snaking queues and the space crunch in the walkways, but surprisingly, the crowd situation turned out better than I expected. The room situation, however, can definitely be described as “space-saving”. Upon entering our Balcony Stateroom, I could immediately feel how cramped the space was. I don’t know the dimensions but it sure felt like a tighter squeeze than the rooms on the other cruise ships. The sofa was also lacklustre as it was stained with black and grey patches, making me hesitant to sit on it. I had to cover the sofa with pool towels. On the bright side, the bathroom was really well-maintained, everything looked modern and spotless. The hot water came on pretty quickly as well. I was thankful that the bed was comfortable and the sheets smelled fresh. And the balcony! Nothing beats having a private (albeit tiny) balcony to enjoy the sea view. The main performance show, SONIO, was held at the Zodiac Theatre. The entire production seemed rather disjointed, resembling a variety show with unrelated individual acts taking turns to perform instead of a coherently themed performance. If you didn’t get tickets for this show, you wouldn’t have missed out on much. My overall rating of the experience: 3 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #exploresgtogether #momentssg #tripmoments #cruiselife #dreamcruises #singapore
