Hallmarks Etched in Heritage and Modernity
The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, is poised to set a new benchmark for luxury hospitality in Singapore. Astute travelers can immerse themselves in an exclusive sanctuary where refined comforts meet unparalleled exclusivity. Designed by award-winning firm P49 Deesign and spanning over 7,650 square meters, The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, is purposefully crafted to present guests with enriching moments of exploration, relaxation, and celebration. Drawing from colonial and tropical influences, the hotel embodies a sophisticated aesthetic that blends contemporary elegance with Singapore’s rich heritage.

Orchids, Singapore’s national flower, grace the property in carefully curated arrangements, reinforcing the hotel’s intimate connection to local culture and nature while adding beauty to every space.
Throughout the property, art and design elements reflect the discerning taste of a cosmopolitan collector. The Buffy Fish Owl, native to Southeast Asia and once found across Singapore’s mangroves, is featured prominently as a symbol of the hotel’s identity. Often seen as timeless creatures evoking wisdom, sophistication, and guardianship, the owl appears in the form of sculptures and a striking stained-glass installation, anchoring the guest experience in heritage and nature.

A striking centerpiece in the lobby of The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, the custom chandelier – crafted by globally acclaimed design house Lasvit, featuring award-winning artisans – draws inspiration from laurel leaves.

The chandelier evokes a sense of lightness and grace, enhancing the space’s ambiance with a gentle, airy presence that seamlessly combines artistry and serenity.
Upon arrival, guests are gently embraced by Voyage Céleste, an exclusive signature scent of The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, specially created by Maison21G that carries a coastal freshness inspired by Sentosa’s tropical environment, connecting guests to the island’s lush landscapes and coastal charm. This welcome ritual continues with a signature drink infused with local ingredients, setting the tone for an experience where every detail is perfectly considered.

Resorts World Sentosa’s Continuous Pursuit of Excellence in Sustainability
Since its inception over 15 years ago, RWS has remained committed to advancing sustainable tourism by continuously pushing boundaries and adopting best-in-class practices. Today, this commitment is exemplified once again with The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, which sets a new benchmark in sustainable luxury.
From the moment guests arrive, The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, reveals its thoughtful design. Every suite is thoughtfully designed to elevate both comfort and sustainability, supported by a smart Guest Room Management System (GRMS) that balances guest comfort with energy efficiency. The hotel is on track to achieve the Building and Construction Authority’s (BCA) Green Mark Platinum certification, recognizing its excellence in sustainable building practices.
Beyond infrastructure, sustainable choices are seamlessly integrated into the guest experience, from refillable shower amenities to reusable bags that reduce single-use packaging. Filtered water faucets replace bottled water, and linen and towel reuse programs invite guests to participate in mindful, responsible luxury. These thoughtful touches reflect conscious living without compromising indulgence.
As guests settle in, they will experience a warm and organic aesthetic that echoes the island’s heritage. Trees felled for the expansion of RWS – including African Mahogany (Khaya senegalensis), Chengal Pasir (Hopea odorata), and Tropical Almond (Terminalia catappa) – have been artfully repurposed by Arthur Zaaro into bespoke cutting boards, bowls, and serving trays. Complementing this touch of craftsmanship, uniforms and amenities are designed by local brands and creative talents as part of RWS’s ongoing resolve to supporting local vendors and reducing environmental impact through regional sourcing.
In addition, suites at The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, will feature handpicked artworks by two artists from ART:DIS, celebrating the talent of local artists with disabilities while creating vibrant and inspiring spaces. Black-and-white photography by Isabelle Lim (Issy), a compelling figure in the realm of photography who is hearing impaired, captures evocative scenes of Singapore that are displayed throughout the hotel. Norwegian-Singaporean painter Natalie Holstad, who lives with ankylosing spondylitis, contributes healing and expressive works that gave her respite from chronic pain. Her largest painting takes pride of place in the Presidential Suite.
Guests can also unwind in the sensory garden of The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, a tranquil sanctuary of native flora and rich avian diversity. Thoughtfully landscaped to promote ecological harmony, the sensory garden encourages pollination through strategically placed habitat niches and nesting structures. The result is a vibrant ecosystem that supports local biodiversity while beautifying the hotel. From architecture to art and cuisine, every experience at The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, is part of a larger story that honors nature, uplifts communities, and redefines sustainable luxury.
