Sentosa is made for multi-gen family trips because it puts families of all ages spending time together at the heart of everything. So if you’re planning the type of holiday to make everyone happy, here are a few ideas to get you off to the best possible start.

Sentosa makes multi-gen family trips effortless
The perfect Sentosa hotels for multi-generational family trips
Keeping everyone happy is the key to successful multi-generational family trips, so never underestimate the importance of choosing the right hotel. Of course, plenty of space is a priority when your family is larger than average. However, it’s often the details that make the difference and we have found two exceptional resorts where space is a given and no detail is too small to overlook.

Swimming pool, Oasia Resort Sentosa
Oasia Resort Sentosa: a calm holiday oasis
The first thing you notice about Oasia Resort Sentosa is its mix of classic Singapore architecture and airy, modern design: grandparents will definitely approve.
All 191 individually designed rooms feature a soothing, natural colour palette. Touches like yoga mats and wellness videos on-demand, enhance the sense of calm personal space. Although the ultimate sanctuary has to be harmonious Oasia Spa which offers a range of treatments to revitalise body and mind.
More energetic activities are available if you want to shift up the pace. And when it comes to food, there are seven restaurants to choose from, including 1-Altitude Coast for casual all-day dining around the resort’s roof top pool.

Almost too pretty to eat, Tanjong Beach Club
Sentosa restaurants to bridge all generation gaps
It doesn’t matter if you’re trying to tempt a picky toddler or persuading your fussy parents to try something new, restaurant choices can make or break a family holiday. Fortunately Sentosa has so much choice it’s impossible to go wrong. Take a look at three favourites that never fail to serve multi-gen magic.

Stunning views from Panamericana veranda
Panamericana: barbecue to impress grandparents
An excellent choice for multi-gen dining, Panamericana has plenty of space for kids to be kids. However, as part of Sentosa Golf Club it’s also effortlessly elegant and features incredible South China Sea views.
Although, we think grandparents might be most interested in Panamericana’s cooking style. Everything from fresh fish and meat to seafood is prepared on an Asador grill: a traditional Argentinian barbecue which grills, smokes and chars to melting tenderness. The restaurant’s impressive wine list is matched by the staff’s extraordinary mixology skills, so look forward to sublime cocktails and even work-of-art mocktails.

The Kitchen Table restaurant with marina views
The Kitchen Table: Sunday brunch by the pool
Don’t be deceived by its low-key, homey name, The Kitchen Table is ‘the’ place on Sentosa for Sunday Brunch with the parents, and your kids, of course.
Set in W Singapore, this all-day-dining restaurant has all the same cool as the legendary hotel brand. But you don’t have to be guests to eat here, which is good news as the Bubbly Remix Brunch is not to be missed. Buffet style is perfect for keeping everyone happy, the choice is incredible and live cooking stations add a theatrical touch.
Whether you sit indoors or out, you can’t fail to spot W Singapore’s fabulous pool, happily that’s part of your brunch experience too. We recommend settling in for the day. Younger kids can splash around and eat when they like. Poolside DJs are a great vibe for teens. And grown ups get to be grown ups and enjoy unlimited pours of wine, beer and cocktails.

Sleek pool deck, Tanjong Beach Club, Sentosa
Tanjong Beach Club: the oceanfront all-rounder
Finding something for everyone is key to the success of multi-gen family trips, and Tanjong Beach Club has that secret mastered. Not only does it sit on its own stretch of gleaming white sand, it features a great pool and seating options range from sun loungers and daybeds by the water to an air conditioned interior.
There’s probably no need to tell you how much the splash about, beachy energy appeals to kids. But you might be interested to know that pets are honoured guests here too, so nobody in the family misses out at TBC. And on the all-important food front, all-day-dining favourites like Smashed Avo Toast mix it up with child-friendly classics such as fish & chips. As well as a full-service bar the Club also rustles up delicious fresh juices, and thirsty pets will be delighted to find water dispensers thoughtfully placed for their post-beach-run refreshment.

Kayaking, Ola Beach Club, Sentosa
Sentosa attractions rule multi-gen family trips
Pleasing everyone can be like walking a tightrope on multi-gen family trips. Relax and think of Sentosa like a beautifully designed safety net. There’s so much to see, do and explore here that it’s almost impossible to misstep, whether you want quiet time for toddlers, a gentle hiking trail with grandparents or non-stop thrills for older kids.

Hello My Dino!, Headrock VR, Sentosa
Thrill kids with virtual adventures
Headrock VR takes virtual reality to another level entirely. Kids can look forward to absolute immersion and we promise, the excitement feels very real.

Find adventures for real on the beach
Sentosa does beautiful beaches, Ola Beach Club brings the water sports. An inspired choice for a chill multi-gen day, Ola offers everything from kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding to the sky-high fun of jet-blading. It’s close to the Beach Station, so you can also add easy-to-reach into your reasons to go. And if you need more persuasion to stay all day, the Hawaiian fusion menu seals that deal.

Heritage trails round Fort Siloso, Sentosa
Fort Siloso: a walk on the wild side of history
Fort Siloso was built in the late 19th century to protect Sentosa Island from sea invasion.

This fascinating history combines with magnificent nature to make one of the most enthralling heritage trails on Sentosa today.
