Step into the hotel lobby and sleek industrial decorations will greet you. Think marble countertops, black leather sofas, and copper piping; paired alongside the giant windows that let in streams of sunlight. Time to snap your first IG-worthy photo to mark the start of your vacation.
Past options have included Tyrell’s chips, Hershey’s chocolate, and Starbucks chocolate drinks.

You’ll also receive a free customisable snack hamper during check-in. You can fill the rose gold basket with any biscuits, sweets, and beverages. Your healthy eating can start tomorrow.

Now, the place to rest your noggin. The hotel has a standard room size, but you can choose between the sea, island, or pool view. Either way, you can expect minimalistic and chic furnishing with matte black accents. For those who prefer to feast your eyes on the latest Netflix show, you’ll be thrilled to know that the rooms come with a smart TV.

Prepare to be well-pampered here as room amenities include a Nespresso coffee machine and exclusive tea blends from local company Pryce Tea. You won’t find any plastic bottled waters though, as the hotel has installed water filters in every tap in an effort to be more eco-conscious. But it’s totally safe to drink Singapore’s tap water anyway so no worries there.

Beside the vanity is where you can locate the provided toiletries, AKA the loots you’ll be hauling home. The shampoo and shower gel sets – which come in calming eucalyptus and refreshing lemongrass – are from Australian brand APPELLES.

Once you’ve managed to drag your butt out of bed, go to the Pamukkale Pool for a dip or chill on the daybeds. You’ll want to time your visit right around 7pm too so you can catch glorious views of the sunset. You can also head up to 1-Altitude Coast at the rooftop and lounge at the outdoor pool deck.

If you’re feeling peckish after all that swimming, head over to Sol & Ora that’s also found on the same level. The restaurant specialises in Latin Mediterranean fusion food, with mains that include the Slow Cooked Greek-Style Lamb Shoulder ($38) and Cavatelli Pasta ($28). Delicatus!

Getting to The Outpost Hotel Sentosa

Location-wise, Outpost Hotel is set in the heart of Sentosa – because if you need a true getaway, you’ll have to cross some sort of sea, right? This way, your kids can’t get to you. Just kidding.
No need to drag your belongings onto the monorail as the hotel provides a free shuttle bus service to and from VivoCity every 30 minutes. But if you’re up for some walking, you can take the monorail to Imbiah Station and walk 5 minutes to the hotel. Or, drive straight to the place – all guests are entitled to free parking.
