 | |  |  | The Sentosa Resort And Spa: A Tranquil Luxurious Hideaway in Sentosa | Tip Rating:    Satisfaction:  |  |  | |  |
The Sentosa Resort And Spa is a premier hotel tucked away on Sentosa and away from the hustle and bustle of the city. After a day of sightseeing and shopping, this is the place you'll want to be. It's considered a 5-star resort, so do expect the standard 5-star rates. Nevertheless if you don't mind spending the dough on your accommodation, this hotel is well worth the holiday investment. You'll be surrounded by lush greenery and a beautiful view of the ocean - Not many hotels offer that in Singapore. And as its name goes, it also offers a world-class spa - Spa Botanica. Imagine being pampered, with a massage and soaking in their float pools. You can op for their various packages, including the ones for golfing (at the Sentosa Golf and Country Club) and spa. I'll highly recommend this place for the discerning tourists who's willing to spend on accommodation. Personally, my take is (if you can) try this hotel for 2 nights - it feels like you're in Bali and not in Singapore city - and then another 2 nights in a city hotel. You'll feel like you're in a totally different place. Plus, other travelling essentials on transportation and food are relatively cheap/affordable in Singapore, so it might just work out for you.

From the airport, it's about SIN$15 and from the city, SIN$10.Website: http://www.beaufort.com.sg

I stayed there for 4 nights in August 06, the hotel is in a secluded and quiet part of the island, but be warned, it is popular for business incentive groups and celebration parties. I chose the hotel as I wanted to relax and be pampered, but once had to leave the pool and pay to go to the spa area for the day, due to a very rowdy party being held on the restaurant veranda. I got a cheap deal on asiarooms.com and a very good room rate, so wasn't too bothered, but if I had paid full price I would have been miffed! I was allocated a small but elegant room, very comfortable, but obviously the room allocation was due to the discount booking I had made, again, would have been disappointed to get that room if I had paid full price. Again, you get what you pay for, it was acceptable for the price. I was a bit disappointed in the spa, it was somewhat under staffed, I found it difficult to get an appointment for the treatments I wanted, so had to compromise, it is very expensive also,as spas go! The relaxation areas were not staffed and sometimes the mud pools did not work or were not serviced and were messy. The treatments I did have however were superb, but then they should be for the cost! The treatment rooms were beautiful and very cosy and relaxing.
The buffet menu was excellent, alot of choice and was clean and well serviced. I enjoyed the breakfasts, but it was not included on my last day and is expensive as an extra. The pool area is pleasant but I would say not suitable for young children, the pool tiles were very sharp edged and slippery and you could easily cut yourself on the tiles, some were broken and cracked. However, it was clean enough. The bar areas were lovely, both the open air piano bar, and the bar at the end of the pool, very relaxing, romantic and atmospheric. The Island itself was a bit sterile, full of student fresher groups on incentive courses which was abit irritating. I checked the other hotels on the island and the Sentosa was definately the best one for my purposes as a single traveller wanting to relax though.
