Staycations are probably the most popular hospitality-related activity going on right now. Singapore, a country that has had relatively low numbers of COVID-19 cases and has been seen as a model on how to control the spread has opened up to Singapore staycations in the last few months.

What is a staycation?
Simply put it is quite a recent development, originally created to help promote local tourism due to economic issues such as the 2008 financial crisis. This was to promote savings and help satisfy our urge to travel by introducing budget-friendly concepts such as exploring your own city or neighbouring ones.
In modern times, this has evolved into luxury staycations for the privileged, while still being a budget conscious option for many travellers who want to explore their own country or even own city.
It is a great way to take some time off when you may not have a lot of leave from work as well as avoiding the stress of booking flights and long-haul travel. In short, it has become a common option for all of us around the world.
Can we staycation in Singapore?
If you’re Singaporean and reading this, chances are that you are already aware that the government has already given the green light for staycations. It is regulated and hotels do need to apply for a permit, but there are many options available.
Any hotel that applies for a staycation permit has to prove to the Singapore Tourism Board and Ministry of Trade and Industry that the hotel has complied with all mandatory Safe Management Measures, which include:
- Meeting density requirements.
- Reducing face-to-face mingling among guests, employees, and between staff and guests.
- Dispersing crowds and preventing crowding.
- Mandatory implementation of SafeEntry and encouraging the use of the TraceTogether app.
- Implementing rigorous cleaning and disinfecting regimes, particularly for high-touch areas.
