10 Exclusive experiences to tick off your bucket list at Resorts World Sentosa

Now that all vaccinated travellers can enter Singapore quarantine-free and without taking a VTL flight, get back into the swing of international travel with a visit to the Lion City. Although a familiar destination to many of us, there’s still much to discover in Singapore and Resorts World Sentosa.

Whether you’re staying for the weekend or an entire week, we’ve put together a list of unique experiences at Resorts World Sentosa to tick off your bucket list—from hotel suites with amazing underwater views to Michelin star cuisine to thrilling record-setting rides.

Spend the night in a luxurious underwater Ocean Suite

Where: Ocean Suites

Discreetly tucked away on one side of the S.E.A. Aquarium is the dream home of every thalassophile. Each of the 11 Ocean Suites, designed like a deluxe two-storey townhouse, features the best of both land and sea with five-star luxuries including personalised butler service. The upper level of each suite has an open living area leading to an outdoor patio and Jacuzzi. It’s even more amazing down below, on the lower level, with breathtaking underwater views of over 40,000 marine animals in the comfort and privacy of your own suite—the room lights will automatically dim when the viewing panel is raised, just like in a movie theatre.
