Destination Ideas

For some ideas on where to go, check out my following recommendations! 

Bali, Indonesia (3D2N)

Spend a quiet weekend away from Singapore at a luxury resort in Bali. Fly to Bali under S$300 each - if you're OK with night flights however, it's good to have a look at KLM since they have better flights for a better rate most of the time. My accommodation of choice is the Conrad Bali if you wish to stay in the resort for the full three days.

Read my review of the Conrad Bali HERE

If you wish to stay on Seminyak and would like to do more than just lounging in an excellent resort, do consider spending 4D3N instead! 

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (3D2N)

Sale tickets start from S$70 for a return trip and approximately S$85 for flights with good timing - depart in the morning, arrive back in Singapore in the evening. Check out the PARKROYAL Kuala Lumpur Hotel that is conveniently located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. While you are there, pay a visit to Feeka - a cafe that serves excellent coffee!
