Heritage Meets Eco-Resort

Spanning a massive 380,866 sq ft of lush, garden-set grounds, this eco-conscious sanctuary breathes new life into the nostalgic chalet experience. By blending historic colonial-era bungalow architecture with a sleek black-and-white palette, it offers the ultimate modern sanctuary to unwind, log off, and recharge.

Stepping into the resort feels like an immediate change of pace from the frantic city grid. The property beautifully balances its heritage roots with contemporary design, utilising a soothing interior palette of stone, timber, and muted tones.

Best of all, you can feel good about your stay. The resort is packed with robust sustainability initiatives, including upcycled timber furniture, rainwater harvesting, solar energy, and an abundance of ceiling fans to assist the coastal breeze and reduce air-conditioning dependency.

Former CherryLoft Loyang Chalets

Built in the 1980s, the original property had been a staple of the Pasir Ris coastal strip for roughly 40 years. For many Singaporeans, it was a highly nostalgic location synonymous with school holiday staycations, massive family gatherings, and weekend barbecues.

Owned by the Singapore Land Authority (SLA), the site comprised 20 two-storey buildings and 4 single-storey structures. It featured fewer, much larger individual units (roughly half the unit count of the current 380-room layout) that focused on traditional family chalet stays.

The property was known for its distinct terracotta clay tile rooflines and generous open spaces. However, after decades of use, the complex eventually fell out of active service and sat disused until the mid-2020s, when the government put the site up for public tender to give it a second lease of life.

While 159 Jalan Loyang Besar was repurposed into Coliwoo, the neighbouring plot at 159W Jalan Loyang Besar remains active as the separate, ongoing CSC @ Loyang resort operated by the Civil Service Club.
