Vacations are great fun. But the planning of nitty-gritty details such as where to go, what to do, and which restaurants to visit—not so much.
If you’re itching for something to do during the holidays yet feel too nua to get started, Far East Hospitality has 2-night stay packages to make things breezier.
All you have to do is pick a place— The Clan Hotel Singapore, Oasia Resort Sentosa or Orchard Rendezvous Hotel.

No planning, no fuss, no more “what should we eat today” conversations will be needed – each staycation package has activities laid out for you, so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy.
We took a peek at their itineraries and summarised everything you need to know before booking.
Planning a suitable vacation itinerary for a family of 4 can be quite the challenge. Between mum craving a shopping spree and dad wanting to take it easy – and not forgetting fitting in something fun for the kids – it’s a task we’d rather leave to the experts.
One helpful way to start the vacation on the right foot is getting the location right. That’s why having a staycay at Orchard Road, surrounded by an extensive array of shopping malls and services, is ideal.
With the Orchard Rendezvous Hotel package, you’ll have 3 days and 2 nights of free and easy vacay in town.

The beautifully Cath Kidston-decorated family room will be the great jumping-off point, offering a spacious 53 sq m room for the family.

During your stay, classic vintage cars like the Volkswagen Kombi will ferry you around to your various schedules, such as meals at the highly acclaimed Indo Café and Halia Restaurant.

Aside from this, the package also includes the following, so everyone in the family can enjoy some well-deserved leisure time and rest:
Being in the heart of Orchard, you’ll be spoilt for choice on how you spend your staycay days.
While a staycation is usually filled with nua time and lounging around the pool, others may take this opportunity to uncover something entirely brand new.
With The Clan Hotel’s Exuberant Edition package, you will call Chinatown home for 2 nights as it becomes a home base for you to rediscover Singapore once again.

With heritage at the forefront of the package, you’ll be set to explore Singapore like it used to be back in the day with trishaw rides along Chinatown and bumboat journeys through the Singapore River.

Not forgetting one of the bedrocks of Singaporean culture – i.e. food – there will also be a cooking class where one can discover the roots of our local favourites such as laksa and char kway teow.
If cooking is not your forte, QĪN Restaurant and Bar will be serving a sumptuous 6-course festive feast, so you can save the trouble of making your own meal.

Each stay of the package will run you about $1,888 nett and comes with:
If learning a thing or two about how our island city came to be is your thing, a guided luxurious tour like this would suit your preferences.
After a weary 2021 of WFH and countless protocols to follow, you’re forgiven if all you want to do during a vacation is to prioritise your physical and mental wellness.
Sentosa is the perfect place to get away from it all. Our little island in an island plays home to Oasia Resort Sentosa, where you can relish a self-healing retreat with their Christmas Retreat package.

In this 3D2N package, you can expect various relaxing activities to take your mind off the stresses of life. The 4-hour relaxation therapy includes a forest bathing experience and a 90-min facial at Oasia Spa.

To fully recharge your body, the tummy needs filling, too, and you can do that with a $300 dining credit at Bedrock Origin.

The package will run you a pretty penny from $3,988 but comes with:
Rejuvenating in the tropics of Sentosa while having nature refuel those batteries again, so you’re ready to conquer 2022.
