SDC is in charge of the following three subsidiary companies:[2]

  1. Sentosa Leisure Management (SLM) oversees the day-to-day operations of Sentosa.
  2. Sentosa Cove Resort Management (SCRM) is the place manager for Sentosa Cove, a residential and commercial district on the island's waterfront.
  3. Mount Faber Leisure Group (MFLG) operates Singapore's sole cableway system and offers lifestyle merchandise as well as F&B dining on the hill at Faber Peak (formerly the Jewel Box).

Monorail

[edit]

SDC owns the Sentosa Express, a S$140 million light rail system that provides easy access into Sentosa from VivoCity.

The old SDC office at Allanbrooke Road was once served by the Sentosa Monorail which ceased operations on 16 March 2005. The new SDC office is currently based at Artillery Avenue.
