This is on the daily. Only interrupted by rain, and intense storms <3
It's quite surreal,
@Wahesh, a Utopian paradise virtually on the equator.
WRT "
everything is relatively cheap", I would say yes, but for essentials. For instance, efficient, fast, clean and safe public transport is probably maximum $10/day for the longest journey. Mine is about $2.50/day to/from work. Basic meals are very inexpensive.
The moment one adds a teeny bit of luxury; alcohol or car for instance --> HUGE taxes.
Example: COE to own/buy a vehicle is ~S$50k and expires after 10 years [

I'd really suggest visiting, everywhere is well air-conditioned; get up and out early and back pool-side for the middle of the day before venturing to the restaurants and bars during the evening. It's a great layover between long-hauls to/from Europe!
