SINGAPOREANS ARE CREATURES OF CONVENIENCE and with air travel prices either at all-time highs or with the general unavailability of tickets, you might be tempted to just book one of the usual staycation haunts in the country's city centre. Augustman is not here to dissuade you from the idea but rather ask you to look a little further.
Technically "overseas" - you do cross the water, but you can travel by car - Sentosa becomes a natural option to your holiday woes. A member of Small Luxury Hotels (SLH) of the World, The Outpost Hotel (TOH) at Sentosa is emblematic of the group's dedication to "anti-chain, anti-same, independently spirited hotels". One of the key attributes of SLH properties is the preference for secluded, discrete options with the highest standards of luxury and guest wellbeing, criteria which certainly place a property like the adults-only TOH at the top of our list for a staycation.

Paradise isn't just a location of pleasure and indulgence for him; it's also a way of life earned through the quest of knowledge and understanding.
