Capella Singapore: Colonial Heritage Reimagined on Sentosa

Capella Singapore is one of the city-state's most admired resorts, a Foster + Partners design that curves around two restored 1880s colonial buildings on Sentosa Island. Set in 30 acres of rainforest and gardens above the South China Sea, it is a Leading Hotels of the World Sustainability Leader and a rare pocket of calm minutes from the city.

The dining is elegant and considered. Cassia, designed by André Fu and led by chef Ben Wong, is a serene modern Cantonese restaurant; Fiamma celebrates the warmth of Italian family cooking; the Pineapple Room mixes thoughtful cocktails within the heritage building; and the Chef's Table hosts intimate private dinners.

For a resort experience within reach of Singapore's center, Capella is the benchmark.
