GENTING DREAM: Cruise Guide for First-Timers

GENTING DREAM: Cruise Guide for First-Timers

By continuing to read this article, you agree to double check with the authorities or other concerned entities for the latest updates.

The idea of going on a cruise may be intimidating for some because of the cost. Others dismiss it as a retiree’s holiday option. That may be true many years back, but this trend is gradually changing as years roll by.

The rise of more cruise lines, offering different options and encouraging healthy competition, resulted in relatively reasonable cruise rates. Some of these companies are going the extra mile to reach out to the growing number of travelers that are willing to spend on things or experiences that give good value for money by creating themed cruise ships and coming up with innovative itineraries. Genting Dream is one of those that cater to a wide range of guests — friends, families, couples, and even company incentive trips (or sales conference/meeting).

If you will be sailing with Genting Dream soon and it is your first time, this post is for you. We hope this will help you prepare and maximize your cruise experience. Here are the things you can expect.

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS GUIDE?

Packing & Pre-Trip Preparations

genting dream cruise video

  • Travel Documents. You need to bring these documents: passport, a photocopy of your passport’s bio page, a copy of your cruise ticket, and a visa (if necessary). If you are a Philippine passport holder, no visa needed because the sail destinations are within Southeast Asia and the homeport is Singapore. If you want a hassle-free purchase transaction, you may present your credit card.
  • Clothes/Outfits. Come on. We know you want to snap as many photos as you can while onboard and during shore excursions. We normally pack two sets of clothes per day: casual for the day activities and smart casual or dressy outfits for the night events, especially if you plan to watch the evening shows or try the fine-dining specialty restaurants. The same goes for footwear. The important thing is that you are comfortable.
  • Toiletries. The stateroom comes with the toiletries: shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, lotion, soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, cotton buds, and tissues. It also has bath towels, hand towels, bathrobes, and hotel slippers.
  • Check-in Luggage. Each passenger can check in more than one luggage without incurring additional fees.
  • Onboard Currency. The default currency while on the ship is the Singapore Dollar (SGD).
  • Onboard Time. Genting Dream follows Singapore time (same as the Philippines) throughout the entire cruise.
  • Dream Cruise Mobile App. Download the App before getting onboard. You can use the App to view ship information, see the daily onboard schedule, check availability of onboard attractions and facilities. You can also use this to send IM to your shipmates, purchase your onboard WiFi package, and review your onboard account statement.

  • Embarkation Process. Genting Dream is homeporting in Singapore at the Marina Bay Cruise Center. Upon arrival at the terminal, look for the baggage drop area for the pieces of luggage you want to check-in. Prepare your travel documents for check-in. After that, you will pass through immigration and then security checks before you can finally board the ship.
  • Checking-in. You need to present your cruise ticket at the check-in counter to get your Access Card that will serve as your cabin keycard and your purchase card for onboard shopping and when dining at specialty restaurants. You can check-in online via the official website from 7 days up to 24 hours prior to the departure date. If you are going on a shore excursion, you also need to present the Access Card when getting off and returning to the ship. Do not lose this card. When you do, relax. Go to the Reception and they will print another one for you after answering SOP questions.
  • Surrender Passport. Upon boarding, the staff will take your passport. Do not panic. You will get it back after the cruise (before you check out).

WELCOME ABOARD!

ATTENTION! Changi Lounge is offering the Fly-Cruise Transfer service, which includes: Seamless bag transfer. End-to-end luggage transfer from Changi Airport Baggage Claim area to the Marina Bay Cruise Terminal to your stateroom! Your luggage will be waiting for you in your cabin. Advance cruise check-in at the lounge. You will have your documents processed in advance and get your Access Card here. Enjoy the lounge amenities. Complimentary buffet, various drink selections, free internet connection, desktop computers, and electrical outlets. It also has meeting rooms, a nap room, and a shower room. You can also explore Jewel while waiting. The lounge is located near the famous Rain Vortex and the Changi Experience Studio. Ground transfer. The transportation to the cruise terminal from the airport is also covered. When you avail of this service, you will skip the check-in process at the Marina Bay Cruise Center and head straight to the immigration process.

Safety Drill

genting dream cruise video

Before setting sail, there’s a safety drill that everyone is required to participate in. You need to pay attention and familiarize yourself with the ship’s map, especially your Assembly Station (which is indicated on your Access Card), and the emergency exits in case of an emergency. Check the Dream Daily/Dream Weekender directory that you will find in your cabin for the safety drill schedule. Ours was held at 9:00 PM.

3 Complimentary Restaurants

This is part of what you paid for when you booked your cruise ticket. You can dine here without incurring additional fees. It’s free-of-charge. Genting Dream has three inclusive restaurant options:

  • Dream Dining Room Lower. It serves either a semi-buffet type or Chinese set menu, depending on the schedule. You may check the Dream Daily/Dream Weekender directory for the info. This is located on Deck 7, Aft section of the ship. Reservation is required.
  • Dream Dining Room Upper. This only serves the Chinese set menu. This is located on Deck 8, Aft section of the ship. Reservation is required.
  • The Lido. This serves Asian and international buffet, including Halal and Indian cuisines. The outdoor area of the restaurant is a 24-hour snack place that also serves morning tea and afternoon tea. This is located on Deck 16, Aft section.

Dream Dining Room Upper and Lower have a ballroom hall-themed setting and floor-to-ceiling windows that afford guests the magnificent views of the ocean.

Note: Alcoholic drinks are not free-of-charge.

You may also try the specialty restaurants! Genting Dream has nine. Charges apply when dining at any of these, but if you are craving any of their offerings, go for it. Here are your options:

  • Umi Uma (Japanese Cuisine and Teppanyaki / Korean BBQ; Deck 8, Aft)
  • Hot Pot (Choice of meat, seafood or vegetarian hot pot; outdoor setting; Deck 8, Aft)
  • Prime Steakhouse by Mark Best (Western Dishes / Steak; Deck 8, Mid)
  • Seafood Grill by Mark Best (Western Dishes / Seafood; Deck 8, Mid)
  • Gelateria (Homemade Gelato; Deck 8, Aft)
  • Blue Lagoon (Hawker Food / Asian and International; Deck 7, Mid, open 24 hours)
  • Lobby Café (Coffee / Tea / Bread; Deck 6, Mid)
  • Silk Road Chinese Restaurant (Chinese Fine Dining; Deck 6, Forward)
  • Crystal Life Cuisine (Healthy Options; Deck 15, Forward)

Shore Excursions (Shorex)

To put it simply, these are pre-arranged tours at every stop. One of the best things I love about cruising is that you get to visit other countries while enjoying the cruise ship’s amenities and features at the same time.

This time with Genting Dream, we took the weekend getaway package with a stop at Bintan Island in Indonesia. For this stop, there are three Shorex options to choose from: Tanjung Urban Explorer, Scuba Tryout at Trikora Coast, and Bintan Black Coral Leisure Diving. We took the first option which includes Gurun Pasir Busung (sand desert), Telaga Biru (Blue Oasis), and Trily Resort Center Mangrove Forest in the itinerary.

genting dream cruise video

You can also pull a D-I-Y. It’s up to you. Here are the scenarios:

  • Booking a Shorex. This is the same as joining a guided group tour. You won’t have to worry about getting to one attraction to the next or how much it will cost you because everything, including the meal, will be taken care of for you by the local tour operator partners. You can be assured that you will return to the ship on time.
  • Pulling a D-I-Y. You can travel at your own pace and control your itinerary. It is also a cheaper option. BUT, you need to be aware of the time. Make sure that you return to the port on time or earlier because the ship will not wait for you. It will leave, with or without you.

Whatever you choose, you will be given a small sheet of paper upon disembarkation. This usually contains instructions and the address of the port where the ship is docked. Don’t forget to bring your Access Card and a photocopy of your passport bio page.

Note: Some Shorex options may require a lot of walking or trekking or activities that might not be suitable for those with health issues. Carefully check the itinerary and assess if the tour is viable for you. Also, each tour needs a minimum number of participants. A tour may be canceled if it doesn’t meet the minimum requirement.

Room and Amenities

genting dream cruise video

Genting Dream has four types of accommodations: Interior Stateroom, Oceanview Stateroom, Balcony Stateroom, and the exclusive suites, collectively referred to as The Palace. Since the ship caters to families and big groups, there are over 100 connecting rooms. About 70 percent of accommodations feature spacious balcony staterooms. Aside from the toiletries and towels, the rooms also have haird ryer, mini-refrigerator, safe, water kettle, complimentary bottled water, tea, coffee, and sugar packets. These are replenished daily as housekeeping do regular cleaning.

The cheapest is the Interior Stateroom. If you want to make the most of the ship’s features, you will probably be spending most of your time outside the room — swimming, sunbathing, eating, playing, shopping, watching shows or going on shore excursions.

Here are some amenities that you can enjoy for FREE:

genting dream cruise video

  • Waterslide Park. You have six slide types to choose from — from gentle slopes for the family to steep inclines for the adventurous. Wear proper swimming attire. Follow the rules and the staff on duty for your safety. Located on Deck 20, Aft.
  • Main Pool and Kids Water Park. Located on Deck 16, Mid. You can see the Waterslide Park from here. You can also relax and sunbathe at the Sun Deck on Deck 17, Mid.
  • Crystal Life Fitness. This is the gym. If you don’t want to miss your workout routine, you can do it here. Located on Deck 15. You can also go to the Jogging Track on Deck 17, Forward.
  • Ropes Course. Perfect bonding activity for the family, couples, and groups. Complete the course and punctuate it with the 35-meter zipline, gliding along the side of the ship above the water from Deck 18.
  • Sportsplex. A large outdoor court that can host basketball, tennis, archery, bubble soccer, and other physical games. Located on Deck 19, Aft.
  • Rock Climbing Wall. Wear proper footwear. Located on Deck 18, Aft.

The Dream Store/Souvenir Mart, located on Deck 6, is where you can get Dream Cruises merchandise. If you fell in love with one of the artworks you see inside the ship, you can go to the Art Gallery, located on Deck 8, to purchase a copy of that artwork.

Evening Shows and Events

genting dream cruise video

The night is as exciting as the day onboard Genting Dream. You can choose from brilliant live production shows brought to you by the award-winning international entertainment team. During our cruise, we have two choices: SONIO – A Tale of Two Dreams and Some Like It Hot. We were able to watch the latter at Zodiac Theatre. You need to reserve your seat for the show at the Box Office on Deck 6 (Mid). You can find the opening hours of the Box Office on the Dream Daily/Dream Weekender directory sheet provided in your cabin.

If you want to brush up on your moves and still got the energy to dance the night away, let Zouk and Zouk Beach Club orchestrate an unforgettable party for you as it brings the best beats by world-class DJs. Both are located on Deck 17. Zouk is Singapore’s most sought-after nightclub and consistently chosen one of the top ten clubs in the world.

If you booked a 5-night cruise, expect a grand night party on the last night called Dream Night. This usually happens at the pool deck. You can also check out the bars if you just want to have a sip and unwind. Here are some of them: Sun Deck Bar (Deck 17/Mid), Pool Deck Bar (Deck 16/Mid), Red Lion (Deck 7/Mid/24 hours), Bar 360 (Deck 6/Mid), Karaoke (five rooms/Deck 6/Mid), and Bar City, a collection of bars in one area: Johnnie Walker House, Penfolds Wine Vault, Mixt Cocktail Bar, Humidor Cigar Lounge, and Bubbles Champagne Bar (Deck 8/Mid).

Cinema at Sea

genting dream cruise video

For movie enthusiasts, you can still watch while on board. Depending on the schedule, here are the places to catch flicks: Zodiac Theatre (Deck 7/Forward), Zouk Beach Club (Deck 17/Aft), and the Lobby (Deck 6/Mid). Check the Dream Daily/Dream Weekender directory sheet for the venue and the time.

Yes! You can connect to the internet while at sea. How? Subscribe to WiFi through the Dream Cruises Mobile App. Here are the rates. Note: Rates vary depending on how many days and the package type.

Top 10 exciting things to dive into aboard the Genting Dream cruise

Pavin Chopra

Resorts World Cruises (RWC) is flying (and floating!) high with Singaporeans snapping up tickets on the Genting Dream since its inaugural post-Covid voyage in June 2022 .

rws - ship

In mid-October, I jumped at the chance to discover this seaborne wonderland on a 4-day, 3-night cruise to Malaysia that included stops at Kuala Lumpur and Penang .

rws - palace suite

This time, it was in the luxury of The Palace , RWC’s all-suite concept within Genting Dream. My 37 m 2 Palace Suite came with a gigantic bed, huge sofa and a really big balcony for a ship! I could have lounged around in there all day if not for the vast array of exciting activities that lured me out every day. Here are 10 of them.

1. The Palace experience

rws - palace suite bed

The Palace is like an exclusive ship within a ship. However, the royal experience begins even before you board. Guests receive VIP lounge access at the terminal and fast-tracked security clearance as well as priority luggage handling at embarkation (and disembarkation).

Board, and the real magnificence begins. First, there is a private restaurant where you can dine away from the crowds every mealtime.

rws - pool

There’s even an exclusive access card-activated Palace elevator that takes you to The Palace club with its own pools, jacuzzis and lounge.

Your 24-hour butler will handle anything you throw at them, from making reservations for shows and meals to finding a safety pin for your dress (true story!). There’s exclusive access to restaurants and premium seating at shows, all with no queueing. All Happy Hour drinks are free, every day.

rws - closet

Stay connected in the middle of the ocean with complimentary Wi-Fi and sleep like a baby on luxurious beds fitted with premium Italian linen. If you’re looking for a ‘dream’ getaway, The Palace has my strongest recommendation!

2. Night bowling

rws - bowling alley

Alone, in a pair, or as a family, who doesn’t love bowling? If you crave that beautifully satisfying sound of pins flying in all directions, Genting Dream’s polished lanes will let you have your fill from late night to early in the morning. Located on a high deck so you have a view of the sky and the sea, it is a hotbed of fun and excitement every evening.

The best thing is that if you throw a gutter ball, you can always blame it on the supposed rocking of the ship!

Night bowling brings a really fun vibe to the experience, with the lighting and pumping music adding to an already exciting affair. Zouk Club is just next door so if you’re feeling exhausted from all the heaving and throwing, liquid rescue is always at hand.

If you find bowling balls too heavy, head over to the pool tables located right next to the alley for more manageable ones. 

3. Live Shows

rws - stage show

I am so surprised but I enjoyed the shows on board the Genting Dream even more than the last time. RWC has gathered one of the most talented troupes of performers I have had the privilege to see live in action. 

It doesn’t matter if you have never been to a live show before; there is something for everyone here— death-defying acrobatics, modern dance, traditional Chinese opera, Bollywood numbers, and a whole lot of zany antics. Hats off to both the performers and the choreographers for creating such an enjoyable medley.

rws - entertainment on stage

The Love Matters show was especially good and the audience participation element makes this production a real deal-sealer. The talented performers and emcees had the entire audience rolling with laughter. Pro tip: if you are the shy type like I am, just tell the ushers to put you in one of the non-participation seats.

4. Learn to salsa

rws - salsa dancing

The show performers don’t just work out and lounge about looking pretty when the shows end. No, they make themselves very useful by conducting dance classes. I have always wanted to learn one of the Latin dances and Genting Dream gave me the chance to at least dip my toes in the water, so to speak.

Remember, no one expects you to learn to dance on your cruise; these classes are about letting your hair down on holiday and picking up some small pointers to help you learn quickly when you really get down to serious lessons back on dry land. And the fact that the instructors are heavenly cute (and fit!) only adds to the thrill.

5. Excursions

The sheer size of Genting Dream and the range of activities available on board will hardly make you yearn for terra firma . However, if you are confident you have got your sea legs, make the trip ashore for a dose of culture and discovery. The 2 stops on this cruise were Port Klang and Penang Island.

rws - batu caves

When Genting Dream docks at Port Klang on Day 2, a tour bus will take you to Kuala Lumpur after first stopping at Batu Caves and Chinatown. Then, it’s on to the shopping paradise of Pavilion Kuala Lumpur with its 700 restaurants and retail outlets.

rws - murals

On Day 3, Genting Dream arrives at Penang Island. Similarly, a tour bus takes guests on a tour of the cultural, historical and popular sights about town.

6. Zip lining

rws - zipline

Yes, zip lining is cool enough but how about doing it off the edge of a 20-storey chasm above the ocean? Now, that’s what you get on board (or, more accurately, off the side of) Genting Dream. Better still for thrill seekers, the launch platform of the zipline is located at the end of an optional high obstacle course in a setup very similar to Sentosa’s Mega Adventure .

I skipped the obstacle course but the zipline gave me a nice little adrenaline rush. As someone very nervous about heights, I’d say that it’s long enough to give you a thrill but not so much so that it’s upsetting.

rws - rock climbing wall

Just adjacent to the rope course and zipline course is the rock-climbing wall with 5 different levels of difficulty. All of these are included in every cruise package.

rws - dining collage

Some people tell me they go on cruises for the food and for those people, Genting Dream is, well, a dream.

Dining at 2 restaurants— The Lido and Dream Dining — is included, free. Just walk in at meal times and grab a table. There are several fine dining options, too. They are complimentary for The Palace guests but others can make reservations and pay before disembarking.

rws - umiuma

My favourite dining experience was at Uni Uma , which specialises in Japanese teppanyaki . The dinner performance consisting of eggs being spun about and juggled off the edge of spatulas, food origami and a beating heart of rice (you need to see it) were immensely entertaining and had the tables ooh-ing in amazement and roaring with laughter.

rws - food collage

Bistro is where you should head if you want fine steak (and a reason to dress up) while Hot Pot delivered a dinner that far exceeded my expectations of a cruise meal.

8. Foam Party at Zouk Beach Club

rws - foam party

If ‘foam party’ and ‘Zouk’ aren’t enough to give your party persona a shot in the arm individually, putting them together just might! Held on the deck from the late afternoon, the Zouk Beach Club Foam Party is a family-friendly version that sees guests of all ages let down their hair and dance their cares away.

It is held in an amphitheatre-like venue so if you are shy or just want to let your eyes do the work, have a drink delivered to your lounge or sunbed and ogle away. Shout out to the resident DJ for spinning some of my favourites, new and old.

rws - casino area

Let’s call a spade a spade: there’s no thrill like the thrill of anticipation as you wait for the final reveal in any game in the casino. I lost a *ahem* very nominal amount but the rattling sound that the roulette ball makes on the wheel as it totters towards its fated destination still makes me yearn for those green tables.

Genting Dream has almost every game that you could wish to play. Or maybe not, but I’m no gambler and there were way more games than I recognised. Outside the casino, you will find simpler games of chance such as the ‘coin pusher’ machine.

Another crowd favourite is Bingo, which is held in the main lobby area, and it seemed to be in progress every single time I passed through.      

rws - spa

Well, you are on holiday so why would you not while the time away in the spa? Crystal Life Spa is your getaway from the noise and frenetic activity that pervades all cruise ships where people are having a lot of fun. 

Offering a range of Asian and Western wellness treatments, this is your destination for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Bonus: The RWC Genting Dream team!

No experience is enjoyable without the people factor and this is where RWC and Genting Dream truly excel. All the staff that I had the pleasure of interacting with on board, from my butler, Noel and the wait staff to the zipline operators and the tour guide, were extremely hospitable. Each went out of his or her way to not just meet my needs but to anticipate them before I said a word.

I had a wonderful time on board and can’t wait to go a-cruising aboard RWC Genting Dream again real soon!

Note: The current fleet of Star Cruises ships is operated by Resorts World One under the name Genting Dream Cruises.

  • The Covid-19 outbreak destroyed the cruise ship company Genting Hong Kong (formerly known as Star Cruises), and Malaysian billionaire Lim Kok Thay is closing the cruise line and starting a new one from Singapore.
  • 1,856 people may be accommodated on the 75,338 gross ton cruise ship Resorts World One. The ship was previously used as SuperStar Virgo for Star Cruises and as Explorer Dream for Dream Cruises.
  • Resorts World Cruises has revealed that it has purchased the Explorer Dream, a former Dream Cruises ship. After being renamed as Resorts World One, the ship will begin two-week cruises from Singapore and then, on March 10, 2023, two- and three-night cruises from Hong Kong.
  • Genting Dream is the first ship constructed under Dream Cruises, a luxury cruise line operated by Genting Hong Kong.
