It is an elevated station located at Estrada Flor de Lótus adjacent to Studio City, near the south end of the Cotai Strip.

[1][5] The Cotai Frontier Post was decommissioned on 18 August 2020, around 8 months after Lotus Checkpoint station commenced operation.

Passengers could no longer access Macau immigration clearance facilities from the station on foot, and would now need to transfer in order to reach the new border crossing.

In alignment to the closure and demolition of the frontier post, the station was officially renamed to its current name on 11 August 2023.

The scheme was later amended and an infill Union Hospital station would be built between here and East Asian Games to act as the new line's connection point to the rest of the LRT system.
