D'Resort @ Downtown East, with its waterpark attraction, seems to be pulling in the most tourists. NTUC members and Singaporeans still make up about 80 per cent of school holiday and peak period stays, says NTUC Club's director of integrated water park resort, Mr Henry Cheah.

Irishman Niall McCormack was looking for an affordable travel destination with beaches and his online searches led him to NTUC Club's D'Resort, a stone's throw from Pasir Ris Park and beach.
