If you want the Marina Bay Sands rooftop view without staying at the hotel, this is the next best thing. There is a $30 entrance fee, but it does go to anything you purchase at the bar for drinks or food. Luckily I was a hotel guest, so it's free but my friend who was visiting had to pay. Esssentially, it just means you need to buy a drink.
Once upstairs and you go inside, it's got a lounge feel. All the tables had a reserved sign and there wasn't much direction where to go. Eventually, we asked an employee and they told us we could sit at a table, but had to leave once the reserved party came. As we sat there, no one came to help us either. When we went to the bar to order drinks, they told us someone should've helped us. I'm not sure what was going on, but we finally ordered our Singapore Slings (SG$25). The drinks are pretty, the view is pretty, it's worth the experience.
Since I was staying at MBS, this spot didn't appeal to me as the view from the pool is even better. So yes if you're just visiting, but that's all.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 1 - Oct 7, 2023
Came here specifically to catch some views at the famous Marina Bay Sands with a fancy drink in hand. Since I didn't want to pay extra to go on the sky deck, I thought to come here where you pay $30 entrance fee but you get to redeem them for drinks and food. I wanted to try their Singapore Sling and it was delicious and refreshing. We also tried their impossible kimchi burger and very tasty! We arrived on a Fri at 4:30 to beat the crowds because it will get packed. unfortunately, it was a cloudy day so the views were not spectacular, however, if you can stay till sunset, they are amazing as everyone will agree. but don't fret, when you leave and walk towards Gardens by the Bay, you'll still be able to see the evening skyline and it's just gorgeous and romantic.
Thank you, Ce La Vi, for keeping it affordable and for a chance to feel fancy amongst the rich!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Sep 27, 2023
This bar is a cool way to see Singapore from above, we went pre sunset and had to pay a cover charge downstairs for $30 which credits back to your drink purchases. I thought the drinks were fine nothing too different from your standard bar. There are many high tops but it can get crowded pretty easily so i suggest going early if you want to get a seat at the edge for clear views. A little after 5pm the DJ was setting up and playing some tunes, nothing too loud during the time we were there.

The view was great but the vibe was off. I think overall it is worth checking out, because you can see the whole city and some very notable sites.
The venue itself was underwhelming. You check in on the first floor, and they wouldn't let someone in our group up because they were wearing shorts (male). However, when we got up, after paying the $38pp cover, we saw many people dressed very casually. I mean, athletic clothes, running shorts for women, tennis shoes, suitcases and backpacks. The club is next to the hotel pool, where many people are swimming and lounging.
The DJ was playing the most generic music so no one was dancing. The bar was understaffed, and the "free drink" voucher that comes with the cover charge does not include cocktails.
There were open tables, and we asked one of the waitresses if we could sit without ordering, and she said yes. That was really nice -- we got to sit there for about 30 minutes until the reservation came.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 102385614Jan 19, 2023
This place has beautiful views of the city, but that's about it. If you're staying at Marina Bay Sands, then skip this place completely because you can get the same view from the hotel's rooftop pool.
Cover was pretty steep but we thought the free drink coupon might make it more worth it. Sadly their drinks were super watered down. The music was also not really the vibe for a bar/lounge type setting. We tried to stick it out to make it worth our money but eventually decided we were wasting our time, so we ended up leaving.
At least we were able to walk away having seen such an amazing view! But don't come here with high expectations otherwise.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Feb 22, 2023
The nighttime city views are breathtaking. Ce La Vi is at the top of Marina Bay Sands, right next to the infinity pool (you must be a hotel guest to access the pool). We made a reservation for ladies' night, which is Wednesday night in Singapore. The club lounge is more of a lounge and not a club as everyone was sitting around, and there was no dancing. There is also a restaurant, which requires a separate reservation.
The reservation is free to make, so you only pay for the drinks you order, which are very expensive but worth it for the views. The SkyPark costs $26 for admission, so it's a much better deal just to go to Ce La Vi to get the city views, which are a lot prettier at night. The cocktails are $25, and there is a special deal on ladies' night for $18 glasses of prosecco, white wine, and red wine.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Feb 19, 2023
Located at the top of Marina Bay Sands, the Club Lounge offers amazing views over the city. But that's pretty much all you can expect. Instead of a fun vibe, the music and the service fell short and we left earlier than anticipated. Dress attire is dressy/casual smart!
We didn't make any reservations and walked-in with no problem. At the first floor, there's a little counter where people line up and pay for cover. Each entry ticket comes with a drink and you would think that would be enough to make it worth it but more on that later. Elevators take you all the way to the top and the first thing you're greeted with is the dance floor.
After walking around and taking pictures of the view, we redeemed our drinks. The service was unbelievably cold. Barely a word spoken and everybody just looked annoyed. The drinks were also so weak. I ordered a pineapple and vodka and it tasted like watered down pineapple juice.
I think this place has a lot of potential. The space is nice, the views are amazing, but there was nothing else to keep us there. The music that day was too monotonous and no one enjoyed it. And on top of that, we couldn't hear each other over the noise so we ended up leaving within an hour to go gamble in the basement.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - May 29, 2023
You really pay for the view. Unfortunately the food was not good. As a matter of fact the waiter forgot to put our dinner order in until we asked. He apologized. But prob should not have even ordered. Very pricey for mediocre food. But love the marina bay sands hotel.

The main reason why we were interested in visiting the Ce La Vi Club Lounge was the view on top of the Marina Bay Sands, but also figured that the general vibe and included drink would add to our experience. Unfortunately that wasn't the case.
You pay cover of $38 and receive a drink coupon. Attire is dressy, men can't wear shorts. Once you pay, you go up in the elevator and there's an entry way where you can hear the music coming from. Dimly lit with loud music is the standard for any bar/lounge, and it isn't anything different here... except the music really was not enjoyable. Weird techno/house music that didn't really have a great beat, blasting loudly that you can barely hear your friends. Maybe the drinks would help things out?
Unfortunately they didn't - not sure if it's because they took our coupons and decided to skimp out for the freebie, but all our drinks tasted like they had no alcohol in it. The bartenders were not the least bit friendly either.
The only saving grace is the view really - the high viewpoint of Singapore is truly breathtaking, but I only wish the rest of the experience was just as positive.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 1 - Dec 3, 2022
First time at ce la vi in Singapore, hard not to compare it to the one in dubai. This place was stunning. So many people come here to get a glimpse of the city from all the way up and this place did not disappoint. They had a great variety of cocktails, mock tails, food, soft drinks wine whatever you needed. The views were breathtaking here. I was lucky enough to make some friends with some of the employees, we were invited to a lot of their events during our stay in Singapore. They have a very very cool set up / layout here and everyone was super friendly. As you know many people do come here so definitely try and make a reservation! (We did not have one) but then again I'm from New York I'll always make sure I get in to somewhere without having to wait in line lol. Great overall spot with awesome views!
