2 Andover Road, Singapore
Here's another throwback to pre-COVID-19 days. Started out as Changi Swimming Club in 1972 and subsequently privatised in 1988, Changi Beach Club (3*) has grown into a comprehensive sports complex equipped with guest rooms for staycation. Its vision is to be a premier lifestyle club in Singapore.

Changi Beach Club is located next to Changi Boardwalk West Shelter.
 |
| The main building is called the Clubhouse. |
 |
| The Singapore Sports Council used to manage the property before 1988. |
At check-in, I collected the room keys and complimentary vouchers. Note that breakfast isn't included in any of the room rates.
I remember there were quite a few mosquitoes, so you may want to bring insect repellent.
I stayed in one of the 15 Superior Rooms.
 |
| There are two queen-sized beds. |
 |
| Five variants of Bontea: English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Jasmine, Chamomile and Mint |
Hand soap, 2-in-1 hair and body wash, is supplied. However, take note that there are no toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Have a look at the view from the room during the day and at night.
After putting down our bags in the room, my friend and I went to the Deck Bar to redeem our complimentary non-alcoholic beverages.
 |
| If you're given the choice to take a bottle for yourself, what'll that be? |
 |
| I had a glass of cranberry juice, while my friend had a can of ginger ale. |
Subsequently, we played billiard.
I had a relaxing 20-lap swim in the Olympic-size pool.
 |
| A big floaties was put up the following morning. |
 |
| There's also a wading pool with a water slide. |
I'm not too sure if the swimming pool is accessible 24/7, but I saw no one swimming in the evening.
There's a cosy lounge where you can watch TV, read books or socialise.
 |
| The drink vending machine only sells cold beverages. |
The Sports Complex first opened its doors in 1997. I went there to hit the gym.
 |
| It's just a few minutes' walk from the Clubhouse. |
The sizeable gym is well-equipped. Apparently I didn't really take many photos there.
Besides tennis courts, there's also a bowling alley there, which I didn't get to see.
There used to be a restaurant called Goldenbeach Seafood Paradise at Changi Beach Club, but the place has been overtaken by a different operator under the name Changi Beach Seafood Paradise.
 |
| I didn't manage to write about the restaurant my food blog, but I recall the butter prawns were good. |
I shall come up with a separate blog entry on Changi Point Boardwalk in the future, but below are just a few photos of it.
 |
| Have you taken a scenic stroll along the coastline there? |
 |
| Do you enjoy fishing? |
Did you know that there's mahjong room at Changi Beach Club?
