We stayed here in 2009. The location is excellent. It's on the doorstep of the beach. However, the rooms and communal areas are not very clean. It's very basic. Many youths stay at this hotel and can create havoc in the pool. I complained to the reception that teenagers are throwing themselves into the pool and that the noise is... More

Booked 2 rooms to have BBQ and 1 night stay over with a friends. Check-in took pretty long as there is only 1 staff available. Rooms were not ready when we arrive but we were early so we couldn't complaint. Got the rooms around 3+pm after a walk around the island. The rooms were not very clean and it was... More

We arrived this hotel in the evening and on arrival to our room we discovered only one towel, no toilet paper, no toiletries whatsoever, basically nothing besides a bed and bathroom. We went down to reception to ask for all these items including an extra pillow, and they tried to charge us for everything! We managed to get away with... More

We stay at this place once or twice a year for the sole purpose of using it as 'base camp' while we enjoy the rest of Sentosa. For this purpose it is ideal. LOCATION: It's 1/2 way along Siloso Beach, thus it's perfect for getting to anything between Beach Station - Siloso point. The stairs from the pool area go... More

Booked this for friends bday. It was extremely dirty, pool was covered with dirt and grimes. Lobby, game center, etc were upkept, floor covered with dirt, and all the toilets are smelly, including those in the room. It had the septic tank smell mixed with excrement. Free breakfast? Well, the china caretaker served us very diluted coffee with toast, wow...... More

If you've stayed at the other Costa Sands facilities in Singapore, then this about normal. It's not a resort or comparative to the other places in Sentosa but an OK place if you're on a budget (when compared to the other places on the island) and for a short stay. Rooms are half decent but like I said, if you've... More

Been staying in the resort for 2 nights. Was kinda shock when I first stepped in because there is no lifts available in the resort. Had to carry the heavy luggages by yourself and walked along the stairs to reach your room. The location of the resort is quite hard to find as well which caused me to walked along... More

A grotesquely expensive hotel with remarkably unfriendly staff, verging on racist towards coloured people. No water provided in the rooms, beds remained undone for 4 days in a row, cleaners DO NOT LOCK YOUR ROOM after cleaning (when they bother to) - a real SECURITY RISK. Stayed here 4 nights, and someone attempted to break into my friend's room at... More

I had a wonderful time on Sentosa with my wife, my parents and my mom's two sisters. Unfortunately the actual "resort" itself was less than ideal especially for seniors (4/6 of us). The hotel shuttle was not running at the time we arrived at the resort which made no sense because we got to the resort 15 minutes before check... More

I went to this resort about 5 months ago in the early Spring. It was not the most hottest time of the year but it was very hot and the horrible cramped huts were terrible! There was no furniture, my clothes were crawling with ants and the air conditioning was faulty. One night there was a gecko under my bed... More
