Stayed in the Ocean Suite. Pricey but worth it for the experience. I didn’t want to sleep as the fish were mesmerizing. The shower is excellent and the bed is comfy. Ocean Suite is huge for just 2 people.

Very Disappointing few days stay.
Our stay was disappointing. The breakfast was really very bad. We could go to the Hard Rock Café for breakfast but it was no better. The room was comfortable. The air conditioning was not working properly, we would wake up most nights really hot. The pool area had broken boards on the deck which was extremely dangerous. We did bring this to the hotels attention. We would never go there again.

Ocean Suite Staycay with excellent butler service!
The sight of the sea aquarium in our room was amazing and awesome. Room and amenities in duplex suite were basic and decor was rather dated. Outdoor jacuzzi on upper flr of our duplex was below average. Jets not powerful nor well positioned. Underboard bath tub facing aquarium was cool. Importantly, welcome and service by Butler William Loh was excellent and dedicated. Pricey and worth returning just for the Aquarium in room experience and Butler William’s service!

Room for improvement
Overall not too bad but then it’s supposed to be a luxurious villa. For the price paid, one will expect more pampering and better service. More warmth and sincerity will be appreciated, although the complimentary cake was a nice touch. Some glitches on the first night that bordered on freaky/spooky but I’m sure there’s a logical explanation for them.

Bday suprise staycation
We were there to celebrate my son’s 16th bday. Prior to our stay, a staff called to inform us on the check-in procedure and checked if were celebrating a special occasion. Told her it was my son’s bday and she offered to decorate the room and send a complimentary bday cake. On the day of the check-in, i think becoz we were given the room earlt, the bday setup was not ready. Anyway, they sent the cake later that afternoon. The nx day when we were out, housekeeping set up the roon with balloons. Though a little late it was still a pleasnt surprise! Very thoughtful staff and housekeeping was fast to respond. Our3rd time staying there this year and we never get bored with the room!

Great experience, but terrible breakfast.
I stayed in the ocean suites and it was really amazing to see the aquarium from the room. The service was good and the room was very nice. The room was pretty good, but I understand the special feature was the aquarium. The butlers were a bit hard to connect to and answered the phone about 50% of the time. The butlers were very friendly and helpful. The only bad part of the stay was the breakfast. The breakfast was pretty terrible. I understand restaurants want to save money due to COVID, but for the price of the room and the price of breakfast, a better quality breakfast would have been great. They only had 2 options and everything I asked for could not be accomodated. (E.g. brown toast, skim milk, etc). They basically gave me a “take it or leave it” response. BEside the breakfast experience, I would visit this place again.

3.5/5
Not worth a 2k price tag. Everything apart from the aquarium view was mediocre. Room design slightly dated and furniture in need of some urgent refurbishing. More frills could have been included, e.g. lunch vouchers (since covid does not allow for room service) or maybe some sort of hamper. Only saving grace was the aquarium view and decent concierge service which should be an expectation given the price anyway. Overall, definitely not worth the stay unless rates are reduced or the hotel manages to somehow enhance the room experience.

The Ocean suites are incredible! Waking up to manta rays is incredible. However for a pricey suite the service left much to be desired. The welcome at check in was less than warm and very unhelpful. The lady was shocked that we would be eating out even though there was three of us. The breakfast that was included was cold when delivered to the room and cold when eaten at Frattelli. The staff glared at us throughout the meal my son even commented why are they so mad at us. Not a great reception. However our meal at the Ocean restaurant was incredible! The staff were so helpful and didn’t mind that are very capable 11 year old sat by himself. The servers took the time to explain the 5 course menu and explained all the dishes. They were super attentive and stopped to chat with him as he was in his own. All communication was done through the butler service which was a bit hit and miss. It took over and hour and half to get the pull out bed made with a call back to remind them. While service was spotty one man stood of above the rest Wichai who made was turning into a bad experience much more pleasant he personally went above the call of duty to ensure our stay was memorable. I highly recommend the room. But would suggest waiting till they have more staff and don’t treat customers as if they are in quarantine. That hotel is just around the corner. It was a once in a life time stay and we were disappointed that the poor service ruined it. I hope service improves for others.

Beach villa has direct access to pool which was the plus. Otherwise service is so-so, long waiting time for buggy service. Butler hotline is impossible to get through on a couple of occasions. They will send your food delivery to your room thou.

Ocean Suite 0908 is an entirely different product from what ocean suite is marketed online. The deco was tasteless and disturbing, although apparently it was a so-called designer suite. If I had seen the real pictures online, I would definitely not have booked the room. The breakfast arrangement with a nearby restaurant is diasastrous. The delivery was 30 minutes late, the order was wrong, and the food was cold. If the hotel decides to work with the restaurant to provide breakfast due to covid-19, I believe the hotel also has the responsibility to monitor the quality a little? I complained to the front desk when I checked out, the staff just told me "thank you it's done."

UTTER DISAPPOINTMENT AT SERVICE WITH THIS RATE
Apart from the impressive aquarium view in the room, nothing else is pleasing. From booking to checking in, no information was given. No telephone to call for enquiries. No and VERY late response to email queries. Checking in experience was below 3 star. Staff not friendly nor smiley. For such a premium rate at such a premium hotel, it’s so amazing to receive below par service standards. Even concierge and so called butler service was very unreluctantly showcased. No mention of butler during check in. Nothing at all. The only thing was, “provide credit card for holding deposit and sit there and wait”. When I asked about butler service, the staff gave me a blank look and 3 black birds flew across. Butler? Ya I waited for 15 minutes of more. If you want to provide butler service, please reference check with St. Regis. Again, like I said apart from the aquarium view, everything else in the room is decent and definitely expected. Nothing impressive. From the attitude of your reception table, I noted that there’s no passion in the service line at all. Not expecting VIP treatment (but at this price, honestly it SHOULD BE), but at least display basic good service. Utter disappointment at other RWS hotel I’ve stayed this weekend - Hard Rock. Service totally suck!

There are two things we were not happy with, we spent 1 hour and 45 minutes to check in, that’s not acceptable and don’t see any special reason. Plus, we have requested to have adjacent room and they have replied us in email that is noted and will be arranged if is possible. But staff in front desk said no such note or request for our booking, so they can’t arrange it on our first night staying.

The most amazing part of course is the full screen aquarium view in front of king size bed!! It also has a sunken bathtub right in front of the aquarium. But there are two main problems: 1. No clear instruction on how to get to ocean suites. We didn't even know that ocean suite is under Equarious Hotel. We asked workers in the shopping mall but no one seems to know. There were no sign board showing which way to the ocean suite. We then asked workers in one of the hotel (who help people get on and off cars), he said he will help us, but then we waited 15 minutes. He seems to ignore us and showed no sign of helping. We later found another worker, she told us there was a free shuttle bus and we should get off at Equarious hotel. We spent an hour searching for the hotel and wait for butler to pick us up to the suite. 2. The room dining experience is very bad :( There are 3 menu and i chose the regular room dining at around 8:30 p.m. We tasted frozen food, cold skewers, untasty chicken rice (it was obviously mixed with canned chicken paste). I hope the hotel improves its room dining...

The suite was quite some distance from the main hotel lobby so service takes a while to reach us. But the staff that came with the plates and forks we requested for was very friendly and even told us to free to let him know if we need anything else.

For those who love to swim
The check in staff was polite. Even though some other guests tried to interrupt and cut the queue, the staff handled it well. Check in time could be earlier or check out time could be later. They claimed to be full occupancy but the other villas around looked uninhabited. The butlers are also quite knowledgable. The baby cot was very bare with only a mattress. No pillow or blanket and it looked uncomfortable. But the direct access to a warm jacuzzi and pool is a very big plus for those who love to swim especially with kids.

A pleasant stay at Sentosa’s Beach Villa.
My family of 3 stayed 2 nights in a one-bedded Beach Villa. The room is spacious, clean and has an attached pavilion and outdoor jacuzzi. We like how the pavilion connects directly with the big common swimming pool. The shuttle service from the lobby area offers convenient access to various places of interest in Sentosa. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and are likely to return.

Improvements needed
Far from main attractions from Sentosa & need to wait for buggy e rrytime from hotel lobby. Buggy services is not efficient & and was told that not enough hotel staff after 9pm. Hotel room is clean. No beach facing, but connected to a public pool. Hotel guests who s swimming can see through everything inside your room. There were hotel staff walking along and through your podium suddenly, very low privacy. Even when you turn on the 'privacy please' light, housekeeper did come and clean the room. Sound insulation is not good, since we could hear clearly yelling and party sounds nearby when world cup was on in midnight. Fridge is weak, cannot keep drinks cold. Curtain control is complicated, we need to call and teach us how to use. Check in and Check out service was low, staff is without smiling nor welcoming. Last but not the least, most of local taxi drivers don't know this hotel, you need to tell them other hotel s name nearby and directed them to this hotel.
