CNA Lifestyle: Fancy a ‘sailcation’? Here are 11 unconventional staycation spots in Singapore

HERITAGE SHOPHOUSES

It’s a pity Singapore doesn’t have an Airbnb culture, but if you’ve ever wondered what life outside a cookie-cutter apartment is like, here’s your shot at staying in a shophouse.

Homegrown brand Heritage Collection Singapore has shophouses sprawled across four districts in central Singapore, so you get a taste of their old-world charm while remaining close to your favourite restaurants and bars. Take your pick from the modern studios along Cecil Street, or the lofts overlooking the Singapore River and Marina Bay Sands from their balconies. From studios to two-bedroom apartments, their properties are all furnished minimally but functionally, and prices start at under S$100 a night.
