Tourism in Sentosa has received an additional boost with a 80-million dollar makeover of Shangri-La's Rasa Sentosa Resort.
It earlier this month after a 10-month facelift.
The resort, one of 11 hotels on Sentosa, is the only resort in Singapore that has a beach front location.
It undertook the renovation to raise the profile of the island.
Resorts World Sentosa described the re-opening of Shangri-La's Rasa
Sentosa Resort as great news for guests exploring new options to stay on
the island.
RWS added that with the opening of even more attractions and its wide
range of entertainment offerings, Sentosa is now seen as Singapore's
premier tourist destination.
Children at Shangri-La's Rasa Sentosa Resort will have more to cheer
with the resort boasting several family-friendly facilities.
On Shangri-La's move, the Tourism Academy @ Sentosa, said it was a logical step to keep up with the changes on Sentosa.
It added that Singapore could see a record 15 million visitors by 2015,
and hotels and resorts have to be ready for such growth.
