Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands (MBS) has invested an additional US$750 million for the next phase of its reinvestment programme in its efforts to ensure the integrated resort (IR) continues to elevate unique experiences for local and international visitors.

The second phase of transformation will focus on Tower 3, the Hotel Lobby and Sands SkyPark, and will include a reimagined VIP arrival experience, new premium dining and retail offerings, a lobby transformation as well as a renewed focus on wellness experiences for guests. More than 550 redesigned rooms, including around 380 suites, will be introduced in this phase.

Works are expected to be completed in phases through 2025.

This announcement comes as MBS enters the final stage of its US$1 billion first-phase reinvestment, announced in February 2022, and focused on the complete refurbishment of Hotel Towers 1 and 2, in addition to new dining offerings and luxury lifestyle amenities for high-value travellers.

“Marina Bay Sands has made significant progress in delivering new world-leading luxury travel experiences over the past two years. This second phase of reinvestment will be critical as it propels the property to new heights and places us in a strong position to capture future growth opportunities,” said Paul Town, chief operating officer, MBS.

The first phase of transformation saw the extensive upgrading of a total of around 1,280 rooms across Towers 1 and 2, of which about 390 are new suites. These rooms are housed under two main categories – The Paiza Collection and The Sands Collection.

In February, the Paiza Sky Club will also open its doors on the 55th floor of Tower 2. The new multi-concept executive club lounge will feature a tea vault, bespoke whisky bar, private liquor locker, garden conservatory and buffet spreads served from open kitchens helmed by top chefs.

Once the transformation of all three hotel towers is completed, there will be 1,850 refurbished rooms, including nearly 770 suites.

MBS will also launch several wellness activities at SkyPark Observation Deck and Infinity Pool next month, offering both hotel and non-hotel guests Muay Thai boxing, spin classes, sound bath meditation and more.

Beyond the redevelopment of the three hotel towers, MBS is also investing in staff training to elevate the property’s strong culture of service excellence, as well as issuing new staff uniforms to complement the luxury positioning of the property.
