Resorts World Sentosa

Adventure Cove is located on Sentosa Island and Sentosa Island is an island just off the coast of Singapore. You can get there by either a monorail from Vivo City, by foot or by cable car!
I went by the cable car route — the view was astounding and definitely safe. The air up there is fresh and calming. For those who are worried, these cable cars are pretty stable and do not shake much. The transportation is smooth and had no bumps or jumps.
You can also bet that I whipped out my camera and took so many photos…
You can see some of the attractions they offer down the island. This is Adventure Cove from above!:)
Once getting off the cable car, a shuttle bus trip is still needed to get to Adventure Cove. Bus took awhile about 15 minutes and didn’t exactly follow the time schedule listed… To be fair, we arrived there at like 7AM or something LOL
The bus is of a really old school which brings nostalgic feelings and definitely allows you to view the then and the now.
Be wary of your stop as the shuttle bus stops by all around the island. It kind of lets you see other spots of Sentosa, like the Merlion:)
There were plenty of maps, pamphlets and instructions throughout Sentosa! Or if anything, you could always double check with the bus driver about your stop/​destination.
Our stop was a popular one, as it was the same stop as the Casino and Universal Studios Singapore (USS). Adventure Cove is just a slight walk from the bus stop.
Went back by the shuttle bus and was satisfied and tired from the water park~
As we were heading back to the cable car to head back to Singapore, we stumbled upon a roaming peacock! Beautiful colours and exquisite tail, definitely a sight to see.
As our cable car pricing included the entire way to Mount Faber, we decided to take a joyride in the cable car as the wind was pretty relaxing too…
From above, I saw some people biking and roller blading on the streets.
And if you’re not interested in water parks, Sentosa Island is still a great place to go to! Not to mention, Universal Studios Singapore is located there as well !

We even did not leave the island for 5 days until we needed to go home. So many activities and good restaurants. I went to S’Pore so many times in my life but Sentosa really changed a lot. Did not go to Trick Museum since the line was crazy long. Luv the waterpark… pay extra to get band to go to the front of the line.

Resorts World Sentosa is a huge amusement park. Of course, money and time wise, we didn’t go every single part of it. Some our mostly for children and I’m not into that. We only went into Universal Studios and Sea Aquarium. Still, this as a must be picture place for tourists in Singapore.

When in Singapore this place is a must go. Good for a day out and kids will love it. I personally love the Cable Cars and the novelty shops. Don’t miss the Hershey’s and Candylicious for the sweet, chocolate and candy lovers.

Shoulda Coulda Woulda… my thoughts now… use to come here when i was a kid… my recent visit was different… wish i was here all day but i only came here during the night to grab a few drinks… listen to live music and gamble…
This is defiantly a place to have a fun filled time… Doesn’t matter if you are travelling as a couple… family or group of friends… this place has got everything to keep you engaged for a whole day… The island has amazing resorts too where you can stay and enjoy a luxurious time… You can easily take a MRT to reach here!

This is easy to get to by cab or MRT. The aquarium is here– which I love! There’s a ton of shops, food and novelty things to buy. There’s a universal studio. When driving in you can see Far Far Away which, to me a dreamworks nerd, is awesome. There’s a ton of touristy stuff to do. Or you can just relax at the W hotel and swim in the gorgeous pool. I haven’t been in the casino or taken the sky ride. The sky ride looks as if it provides great views of the island. I’ll be back!

Interesting casino. Different entry requirements for locals and foreigners. Not permitted to take photos, so I only have one of the outside: notice the blue sign for locals and the red sign for foreigners. Special gaming zone for locals.
High Stakes gaming area upstairs with even more entry restrictions for locals.

Been to RWS so many times and yet there is always something new to learn about the place at our every visit. Like I mentioned in an old review of this mini island, Resorts World Sentosa has somehow managed to steal all the glory of the place ever since its opening in 2010. The old charm of the island is gone, sadly.
But nonetheless, it sure is one happy place to be. Amazing 5-​star hotels, restaurants, casino, convention centre, performance art theatre, Universal Studios, and etc… all are clumped together in this one resort. So don’t be silly and come here with just shillings in your wallet.
Also, for the first time I parked my car at RWS last Friday. Hahaha! Of all my previous visits to this island, I had always painstakingly parked my car at the nearby Vivo City mall to avoid the crazy parking charges ($ 8 bloody dollar for the first hour! And $ 4 for every subsequent hour. Bloody hell!). But since this time round we could actually claim the money from our office… hehe! Why not take the advantage, eh?
But yeah. Do remember to top-​up your CashCards aplenty if you do decide to park here. Yes, I even snapped pictures of the carpark so that I can trail back to my car’s location. Hell, the carpark is humongous!

I loved Resorts World Sentosa. Fair warning, I have nothing to compare it with, hence the experience was 5 stars.
Firstly, for North American consumers, this place isn’t overpriced. To do everything in the island, I am sure would be expensive. But if you’re tourists and have a few hours in a day, they have some pretty great packages. I believe we go 3 attractions for 30 SGD before boarding the monorail.
We possibly chose 3 of the best attractions in the list. Details below:
S.E.A Aquarium: Best value in this deal as a separate ticket for just this is about 30 SGD. You walk in through The Maritime Experiential Museum — which isn’t too great, but then you walk in to the aquarium and it’s pretty mind-​blowing. Definitely a must-​do, especially if you haven’t ever visited a marine aquarium. I have, and I still enjoyed it.
Luge & Skyride: I can’t explain luge but it was a lot of fun — think go-​karting but not. And the skyride is basically like one of those ski lift rides. A tad scary — but great views!
Wings of Time: This is an evening show. And although the plot is very very PG, the technicalities of the show is pretty great — parts of the story is projected in water mist shot in the air. Tons of cool effects.
Beware of a few things:
Novelty shops and food stalls are highly priced — even ice-​cream places.
Photographers will charge you $ 15 per photograph — complete rip off, don’t even try.
Tip: this is one of the best things in Singapore. So if you are a tourist, with kids or without, this is a must!

Poker room at Sentosa Singapore is the only poker room in the world, that allows smoking it shocking and they all smoke in your face when you get up you feel you just smoked 2 boxes how do they allow it is beyond me no respect for non smokers and they can help the smokers smoke less

Great place with many different activities for very different tastes. The luge and zip line are great for adventure junkies. The whole island offers great views and is great for getting out of the city. The ticket prices are a bit much, but you’d expect it from a touristy island like this.

Only Texas Holdém poker room in the country. However, it’s run by a very unprofessional dealers and management team. Hope they change soon and quickly.

A trip to Singapore will never be complete without visiting Sentosa Island. We went there in the morning and used the walkalator instead of riding the tram (SG$ 3) or the bus (SG$ 2). It’s exciting going there simply because you don’t know what awaits you. Then, when we got there, I was easily stunned at how lovely it is.
I loved taking pictures of the attractions. I particularly loved the Songs of the Sea and the beach. There were lots of things to do, and it’s such a wonderful refuge for those who think the city’s becoming too constricting. :)
Sentosa Island is such a perfect place for vacationers. No one should ever let pass the opportunity to come here.

Family and I truly enjoyed this hotel resort. I have to say the restaurant on site had a fantastic buffet. One of the best I have experienced in a long time. I need to starve myself next time so I can eat more! Because the resort is apart of Sentosa island it’s very convenient to use the bus and tram system to get around and see the full island. This particular hotel is probably one of the quieter ones on the island if you want privacy.

What a beautiful casino! It’s huge! A gamblers dream. The bars are nice, some jazzy, some with unique sculptures hanging overhead. We went here three years ago, so this review is delayed, but we enjoyed ourselves. Roulette was fun!

You have to have trousers/​pants to get in here. I knew this beforehand so it’s not like Vegas at all.
Tries to bring an air of class to the place.
It can’t match up to Macau but they do an ok job here.

Resorts World Sentosa does not ring the same bell tolls as Macau, the Vegas of the East, casino empire of Asia.
Upon entering a large signage in English and Chinese describes the very rigged dress code for Singaporean PR’s and foreigners with inspection for valid photo identification of 21+ to enter premises. Warning: Smoking is permitted for those who highly detest this foul stench (like myself), but it is air conditioned equipped. No photography (flash or non-​flash) is permitted inside as security is very closely monitored. Ergo, children are highly advise to visit a kid-​friendly atmosphere as Universal Studios Singapore NOT Resorts World Sentosa.
This casino is a fully integrated complex resort comprising of hotels, a convention centre, a museum, Universal Studios Singapore, lots of restaurants and cafes, including a concert hall plus the then 2010 world tour circus «Voyage de la Vie» in the 1,600 seat Festive Grand Theatre which, sadly, I was unable to see during my brief 2010 visit.
Singapore brings the world to Asia.

Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) is the first ever integrated resort, which accommodates hotels, restaurants, a convention centre, the Maritime Experiential Museum, Universal Studios Singapore as well as The Coliseum. The Coliseum is an arena located behind Hard Rock Café that holds rock concerts. It’s actually a pretty great concert venue because you get to sit at the sidelines or jump around with the crowd in a cool, outdoor atmosphere. It’s like Fort Canning Park without the mud and grass. The Convention Centre is pretty huge and versatile. I visited it once for the Transformers Cybertron Con this year and thought the place was really majestic.
RWS is also a great place to snap photographs amidst abstract architecture, lush greenery and scenic views. Plus, there’s also that iconic Universal globe.
Despite all the good things that RWS has to offer, I’m rather disappointed with the food options here. Not many eateries are halal and if my memory serves me right, even the Malaysia Food Street doesn’t offer a halal stall. There’s The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf but just one café won’t make a significant difference to me. Unless I’m inside USS where there are halal restaurants available, it’s really hard to find something to eat over here. I’ll usually just get back to VivoCity’s Banquet.

The only thing i dislike about this place is the location. Best gotten to by car. But if you were to take the MRT, alight at Harbour Front mrt and proceed to take a monorail to RWS ($ 3 entry fee).
RWS’ deco is relatively kitsch compared to MBS’, which definitely gives of a more ‘atas’/high class vibe. RWS houses a couple of exciting restaurants, one of which is Joel Roubchon’s michelin starred restaurant.
I find it troublesome getting to the hotels as you have to walk through the huge complex just to get to it. Further, they dont really serve authentic local food here (unlike in MBS, where they at least had a food court near the ice skating ring)/

One of Singapore’s two «integrated resorts» (read: casinos disguised as family-​friendly destinations with the addition of other attractions), RWS is actually a great place to visit.
Many come here for the casino, obviously. I’ve never actually been in there, since they make Singapore citizens pay S$ 100 per entry. There’s no way I’m losing money even before I start to gamble!
But the rest of the compound is a pleasure to stroll through, even though the environment feels typically artificial at times. For leisure, there’s the famous Universal Studios, and lots of shops and restaurants. If you’re feeling bored already, there’s even the rest of Sentosa to explore!
