Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Amara Sanctuary Sentosa is frequently praised for its convenient location, offering easy access to the beach and nearby attractions, including a complimentary shuttle bus to Vivo City. Guests often enjoy the spacious rooms, some featuring rooftop pools with a view and bathtubs.

The hotel grounds have lots of greenery and peacocks roaming free. I enjoyed the breakfast. They change some cuisines daily. The free minibar with daily refills saved me hassle when going out. The staff are courteous.
