While Covid-19 cases in Singapore have been gradually decreasing over the past few months, and life has some semblance of normalcy again, travel bans are unfortunately still in place. We totally understand if you’re constantly dreaming of where to travel to after all of this over, because we’re feeling the travel bug too!
In the meantime, we’re taking advantage of local staycation deals, looking for new and fun things to do such as paying a visit to the new aqua park and hitting the beach. But how do you elevate the experience? Book a daybed at the beach club? Do some water sports? Have a romantic dinner against the backdrop of a glorious sunset?
How about all of the above?
Singapore’s Shangri-La Rasa Sentosa has rolled out a promotion, not just to entice folks to have staycations at its hotel. Instead, the beachfront resort in Singapore is already running a popular Daycation package for guests to unwind from morning to evening, and it also has a new Rasa Sunset in Paradise package that lets guests wind down from afternoon to sundown by the beach, complete with water sports, food, cocktails and great sunsets!
The Sunset in Paradise deal is only valid from 4pm on Fridays to Sundays, eve of public holidays and public holidays, while the Daycation package is available from 10am to 6pm daily.
But that’s not the only difference between the two, and we’ll break it down for you!
