Location
In a quiet estate in central Sentosa Island, amid golf courses and tropical forests
The Capella Hotel is located in central Sentosa, the quietest and most secluded part of the island. There are two great golf courses next door to the hotel. North of Capella is booming Resort World, a huge entertainment complex with a wide range of restaurants, hotels, shops, casinos, clubs, and attractions including Universal Studios and a massive aquarium.Sentosa Island is located a 25-minute drive from the downtown area and connected to mainland Singapore by the Sentosa Gateway. It is divided into two very distinct parts -- the tranquil, more secluded eastern half (home to golf courses, quiet resorts, and forests) and the younger, massive tourism-oriented western half, home to Resort World. The island is a good spot for golfers, nature lovers, and partiers but those in Singapore to visit the sights are better off staying closer to downtown.Singapore is known to have heavy traffic at all times, so the following driving times are just for guidance.- 30-minute drive to Changi International Airport
