Underwater Suites at Resorts World Sentosa:
Singapore’s only underwater hotel suites, and some of the entire world’s very few, are a major highlight of Resorts World Sentosa, an enormous integrated resort complex just off the country’s south coast which is home to Adventure Cove Waterpark, Universal Studios Singapore and the S.E.A. Aquarium amongst other attractions.
There are 11 underwater rooms, or Ocean Suites as they are referred to, by the ‘Open Ocean’ section of the S.E.A. Aquarium, between the Beach Villas and Equarius Hotel.
All of them are broadly similar with an entrance floor at ground level containing a lounge area and an outdoor patio with a small private pool. This upstairs, though very pleasant, is still a very unassuming introduction to the fabulous downstairs section.
There you will find a sleek-looking double bedroom with an in-room jacuzzi and floor-to-ceiling windows that look directly into the Open Ocean habitat of the S.E.A. Aquarium – the world’s second-largest aquarium and home to a staggering 800 different species of sea creature.
There is a very plush en-suite bathroom alongside too but one which, unlike in similar underwater rooms in Dubai and the Maldives, doesn’t share the same sub-aquatic view.
Guests of the Ocean Suites, as well as having complimentary transport buggies and a 24-hour, personal butler service, are offered many complimentary activities and perks throughout the Resorts complex.

Underwater Dining at Resorts World Sentosa:
To add to its underwater rooms, the hospitality wonderland that is Resorts World Sentosa had another trick up its sleeve in 2021 when it opened a pop-up semi-underwater restaurant, or ‘Aqua Gastronomy Experience,’ which ran from September 2020 to February 2021 at the SEA Aquarium.
Then, in the time of Covid, guests dined in specially constructed separate pods, with the sea life circulating around them, and were offered a full, ‘multi-sensory underwater experience.’
It was a great success and was finally made a permanent feature in July 2022, with two Michelin-starred French Chef, Oliver Bellin at the helm.
