The Sentosa Staycay

1. Capella Singapore

Capella Hotel is the ultimate 5-star luxury Singapore staycation, and is the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion like an anniversary or birthday. While you’ll be slap bang in the middle of Sentosa, you’ll feel completely secluded and removed from reality at Capella.

Capella offers an extensive choice of accommodation, including hotel rooms with garden or oceans views, spacious suites, villas with private plunge pools and even beautiful private manor residences.

Capella features a high end day spa and one of the best swimming pools in Singapore, tucked away in the rainforest for the ultimate privacy. There’s also a range of premier restaurants, where signature experiences include a delightful high tea and Sunday’s bottomless free flow brunch with a view.

2. W Singapore Sentosa Cove

The W Singapore – Sentosa Cove is an excellent choice if you prefer to be in a more lively part of Sentosa, and your budget doesn’t quite extend to Capella. At the W, you can both make the most of the beautiful hotel and dine out at Sentosa’s vibrant marina which is on the hotel’s doorstep.

The W Sentosa has a mix of rooms and suites, some with private pools and all decked out in trendy decor. The hotel also boasts full resort facilities, including a luxury spa, gym, massive pool complex and a variety of restaurants.

Make it a dining event if you stay at the W for the weekend. On Friday night, enjoy 2 hours of bottomless bubbly at WooBar. Explore the nearby restaurants at the marina on Saturday and finish off your weekend with the W’s Sunday Brunch. The W’s brunch offers a choice of drinks packages, including non-alcoholic, house wine / beer / cocktails or the house package plus champagne.

The Marina Bay Weekend Getaway

3. Marina Bay Sands Hotel

Marina Bay Sands Hotel is the quintessential image that most people associate with Singapore. One of the main reasons to take a staycation at Singapore’s MBS hotel is to relax at the iconic rooftop infinity pool, where access is reserved exclusively for guests.

Marina Bay Sands is the perfect choice if you want to be a tourist in your own town. Visit nearby Gardens by the Bay, see the daily MBS light show (8pm and 9pm daily), stroll around Marina Bay and catch a show at the Marina Bay Sands Theatre.

4. Fullerton Bay Hotel 

Fullerton Bay Hotel is a super modern hotel with sleek rooms and front row views of Marina Bay Sands from across the bay. Relax on the hotel’s rooftop which features a tranquil infinity pool and fan favourite Lantern Bar with casual bites and drinks (but rather expendy prices!).

The Fullerton Bay Hotel is also one of the few hotels that has a Saturday champagne brunch for those who prefer to avoid a Monday hangover. Once you’ve had your fill of hotel food, check out the great casual restaurants and bars nearby, including Super Loco Customs House for tasty Mexican and Kinki for Japanese food and low-rise rooftop bar drinks.

The Quintessential Singapore Hotel

12. Raffles Singapore 

Raffles Hotel is an absolute Singapore institution, and for good reason. The hotel is a grand old dame with opulent colonial interiors, and was extensively restored in 2019. When we stayed at Raffles Hotel, the grounds were beautiful, the service was impeccable and the restaurants were outstanding.

Raffles also offers some of the most iconic dining in all of Singapore. Tick one off your Singapore bucket list by having a Singapore Sling and throwing peanuts at the Long Bar, experiencing high tea in The Grand Lobby or enjoying a meal at BBR by Alain Ducasse (formerly known as the Bar & Billiard Room) or Indian at the Tiffin Room.

Park 22 Hotel is a great budget hotel option in Singapore, housed in a gorgeous heritage building on the doorstep of the vibrant Little India neighbourhood.

Little India is a veritable feast for the senses, with (unsurprisingly!) excellent Indian food, shopping markets and brightly coloured shophouses.
