The
Amara Sanctuary Resort Sentosa, a stylish new resort on Singapore’s Sentosa Island is celebrating
its soft opening with introductory rates starting from just Sin$285++ per night, valid until the end of
August.
The
Amara Sanctuary Resort is located within 3.5 hectares of secluded tropical gardens on the hillside above
Sentosa’s popular Palawan Beach. Just ten minutes drive from the city centre, it is a perfect urban
lifestyle retreat for both business and leisure travellers to the city state.
Singapore’s colonial architectural heritage is
uniquely retained within the resort through the conversion of an original 1930s built British
Sergeants Quarters into sensational Courtyard and Verandah Suites.
The resort’s Japanese fine dining restaurant, Si Bon, is also a conversion from the oldest chapel on Sentosa, and retains its original brick
wall structure.
“Historic colonial architecture mixed with contemporary design amid lush tropical gardens, all within easy access of the city centre, have
given us a great opportunity to create a resort retreat which is nonetheless very close to the city
- something which is unique to Singapore,”
said Amara Group CEO, Albert Teo.
Owned and managed by Singapore’s Amara Group, the 121-room contemporary resort is designed by Japanese architect Masaki Miyake,
who focused on clean lines and uncluttered design in a natural palette of colours that blend with the resort’s natural tropical setting.
Amara Sanctuary Resort’s
dining options include an all-day restaurant Shutters serving modern intercontinental cuisine;
Thanying, an authentic Royal Thai restaurant; and Si Bon, a delightful boutique Japanese restaurant in a former military chapel, serving the
authentic Japanese delicacy “Kushikatsu” or skewer cuisine – which is rare outside Japan
and quite unique in Singapore.
The
resort has a host of facilities, including three swimming pools, one of which is a sleek roof-top infinity edged pool
overlooking the South China Sea reserved exclusively for adult guests, and two family pools in the gardens. A health and wellness Spa and
fully equipped gym will open later in the year.
