5 hotels in Singapore to put on your radar for your next wellness staycation
Find your Zen and elevate your staycation at these hotels without travelling out of Singapore.
Staycations in Singapore are often planned for special occasions, but have you ever booked a hotel stay to chill, recharge your batteries and take care of your mental health, just because?
Life is a series of turmoil, and sometimes, a quiet space to yourself could be all you need to unwind and recalibrate. Spend the time doing things that make you happy, whether it's lounging by the pool, reading a good book, binging on your favourite streaming sites, indulging in a spa treatment and great food in the vicinity; or simply doing nothing. It can be pretty value-for-money, too, especially if you take advantage of promotions and deals available through trusted booking sites.
Here are some we've stayed in Singapore with a particular focus on wellness.
1. The Barracks Hotel
With only 40 rooms in this exclusive enclave within Sentosa, plenty of space to roam around and stellar service, elevate your quiet time with a touch of luxury.

Room starts from S$510 per night
2. Oasia Hotel Downtown
We've all seen this building from the outside with the engine-red exterior covered by a blanket of climbing vines. On the inside, recent improvements to the wellness program – think complimentary fitness classes, a wider variety of healthy options in the lounge and yoga mats readily available in the room for your usage – makes every stay more worth your bucks.

Room starts from S$251 per night
3. Oasia Resort Sentosa
There's something about the location: right next to a monorail, but still secluded enough for serenity, that made this hotel one of my top few hotels to escape to. Don't forget to check out the spa, it's hand's down one of the better spas I've been to at a reasonable price for a hotel chain. The proximity to the beach also means you can put morning or evening walks by the sea on your list!

4. Outpost Hotel
Modern, new and an altogether trendy stay in the middle of Palawan and Siloso Beach, The Outpost Hotel offers a Coast-to-Coast experience, including options such as a romantic tandem bike and picnic session on Sentosa’s Coastal Trail, a cable car dining experience, and an exhilarating ride on a rigid-hulled inflatable boat (RHIB) on the Singapore Straits. Expect a more mature clientele, as this hotel only allows guests over 16 years old.

Some of the perks for Club members and above include a Sleep Ritual turndown service featuring fresh herbs from the in-house Urban Farm, accompanied by a tea set and scented pillow pouch. As part of the Eco-Wellness programme, a selection of dishes with locally sourced fresh produce and farm-to-table harvests has also been curated as part of the dining experience.
