A secluded Sentosa estate where restored colonial-era buildings meet sweeping contemporary architecture. Capella Singapore helped establish the Singapore-based brand's approach to intimate service, spacious accommodation and culturally grounded resort experiences.
The Story
Origin
Opened in 2009, the resort incorporated nineteenth-century buildings associated with Singapore's British military past into a new tropical hotel estate.
Philosophy
Discreet, personalized hospitality supported by space, privacy and locally informed experiences.
Why Important
A formative flagship for an Asian luxury hotel group and a prominent example of heritage architecture integrated into a contemporary resort.
Differentiation
Its estate-like setting feels removed from metropolitan Singapore while remaining close to the city.
Food Philosophy
Chinese and European culinary traditions sit alongside relaxed resort dining.
Guest Experience
Rooms, suites and pool villas offer different levels of seclusion, supported by swimming pools, Auriga spa and curated activities.
Design Philosophy
Historic buildings and contemporary curves are treated as complementary layers within a lush landscape.
Design & Architecture
Lighting
Garden-facing daylight and subdued evening lighting sustain a residential atmosphere.
Furniture
Low-profile seating and tailored timber furnishings.
Materials
Timber, stone, glass and warm-toned metal.
Architecture
Foster + Partners paired restored historic buildings with curving contemporary wings.
Design Language
Tropical modernism in dialogue with colonial-era heritage.

Jaya Ibrahim's interiors emphasize calm proportions, natural textures and restrained Asian references.
