If your idea of a quick island getaway doesn’t go beyond Sentosa, you’ll be glad to know that five-star travel destination the Mövenpick Heritage Hotel Sentosa (23 Beach View Sentosa, 6818-3388, www.moevenpick-sentosa.com) is now open for business (the Heritage wing will launch later this year). The hotel, with an interior that nods to both Singapore’s colonial history and contemporary flair, promises to be a grand addition to the island. We’re especially excited about their suites, particularly the Onsen and Penthouse Suites, which we hear will feature outdoor Japanese-style hot tubs and private rooftop pools. Opulence is a big draw here, with an old heritage building being redone to house the hotel’s restaurant, Whisky Bar and Cigar Lounge. The restaurant will feature a unique private dining concept, allowing guests to enjoy tailor-made menus. If you can’t wait to experience the high life, their Executive Suites are now open for reservation. Staying in never sounded so appealing.
