1. Capella Staycation is Completed with The Best Gastronomy

One of all things that matters in a hotel, especially for spending days of vacation, is the culinary. Lucky for you, if you choose Capella staycation for your holiday, you can experience the best gastronomy ever!

The Capella Singapore will take you to the best taste of foods. They have four choices of restaurant. The first one is The Knolls on the first floor. The Knolls is the restaurant that is usually used for breakfast.

When you have your breakfast at the Knolls, you can try the best pastries ever (yes, they have several pastries choices that you can try), and other breakfast menus like eggs or cereals.

The second one is Bob’s Bar, on the second floor. You can choose the outside lounge for the best scenery ever: the greens of the trees and the pool. It is recommended for you to try the Navegante rum, if you want, and choose other meals like fish and chips.

The third one is on the third floor. It is Cassia, a Chinese Restaurant, where you can taste the delicacy of Cantonese food. Here, you can order a Dimsum Platter for lunch or try the Stewed Instant Noodle with Shredded Ducks. Hmm… tempting, isn’t it?

Being the last one, don’t skip the Chef’s Table on the fourth floor. This is special for you who want to taste some personalized menus, made by the best chef at Capella Singapore. The interior design is very mesmerizing too, with the sense of a luxurious home-styled kitchen.

If you want to try the Chef’s Table, it is best for you to make a reservation first. By the way, you can also check for the menus online, so you can choose which restaurant you want to try first.

Don’t you feel hungry while you are reading this?

2. Have an Artsy Capella Staycation with All The Workshops

Your Capella Staycation will never be flat because they provide some interesting workshops for you to join. Yes, it will definitely be an artsy staycation!

Do you want to make your own keychain (and take it home?). There’s a daily workshop that starts at 10.30 AM called Shrinky Dink Charm Making. It is going to be fun to sharpen your creativity. Besides, you will get to have your own keychain as a souvenir, so you won’t forget this beautiful staycation experience!

There is also a Sustainable Art & Craft Workshop. It is a daily workshop too and it starts at 4 pm. Well, it’s going to be a fun way to spend your afternoon being artsy here.

In this workshop, you are going to make your own painting. Not on a brand new canvas, but on a reusable pouch or bag. Nice, right?

If you love gardening or flowering, you should try the Floral Styling Workshop. There will be an occasional workshop too, like the Succulent Garden Workshop, where you can do some easy gardening accompanied by the floral expert! It might charge you more to join this occasional workshop, but it will be really worth it.

Another good news is, you can also take your children to join the workshops. Usually, there are some rules for each workshop. For example, the Shrinky Dink Charm Making will let kids join by themselves if they are above 6 years old.

But anyway, it sure will be more fun if you join the workshop altogether with all your family members, right? Don’t skip these Capella Staycation activities, because it’s going to make your staycation unforgettable.

3. Kids-Friendly Staycation at Capella Singapore

When you choose to spend your staycation here, your kids will experience the best staycation too! Not only the workshops mentioned above, there are also some staycation activities special for children. It is called the Little Stars experience.

Your kids can try the culinary workshop, where they can decorate the cookies or the cupcakes. Or, your kids can join the fun scavenger hunt!

The plus point is, you can leave your kids on these activities with the Capella Culturist, while you and your spouse can enjoy your alone time during the Capella staycation. Well, who doesn’t want to have a couple hours of free time alone without the kids, right?

Another kids-friendly moment is to have the Movie Matinee. Here, you can lay your back inside a family tent and watch a fun movie together with your family on an LED wall. This event will be held at the Capella Grand Ballroom, only on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

4. Experience your Breakfast Time… with Peacocks!

We have already talked about the breakfast experience at the Knolls. But, we haven’t talked much about breakfast with peacocks on your Capella Staycation, right?

Yes, when you sit at The Knolls, you can see the view of the pools and the peacocks that walk around the pools. Now, you must have had your breakfast at some hotels before, but to have breakfast with peacocks around? It will be a different breakfast experience!

Plus, the kids will be excited once they spot a peacock near the pool. It won’t feel like a usual breakfast for them either. You can choose to sit outside so you can hunt the sight of peacocks easily.

5. Swim! Swim! Swim!

Capella Singapore has a lot of pools inside: three pools to be exact. There is only one pool that allows children while two others are for adults only. This can be very comforting, because families can focus on the children’s pool and adults can enjoy their swimming without the crowd of the children.

Anyway, swimming pools are really important on a staycation, especially when you are vacationing with the kids. They will definitely love the pool! The pools here are really large, with a quite beautiful green scenery as the surroundings.

The swimming session on your Capella staycation will be very refreshing, and most of the time Singapore has summer weather that will support you to swim more. For more fun time, you can borrow the pool floats to the pool attendant.

Want to get more relaxed while laying down under the sun? There are sun loungers by the pool for you to try. Don’t forget to come as early as possible before the pool and sun loungers are full, so you can get to try the sun loungers.

6. Refresh your Body with the Capella Staycation’s Wellness Activities

Why don’t you make your Capella staycation more relaxing? Capella has already provided you with some of their wellness activities.

The first one that you can try is the Auriga Spa. Book your time at Auriga Spa earlier and experience the signature treatment that will refresh and restore all your energy. Feel more relaxed and renewed after you try their signature treatment.

If you want other choice than massage and spa, you can visit the gym. It is usually not that crowded and you can enjoy your exercise in a more private feeling. The gym is quite big and the equipment is quite comprehensive too. There’s usually complimentary fruit and isotonic drinks at the gym.

You can try having yoga too and a try to practice meditation to experience a revitalising feeling of your mind, body, and soul. You can ask the Capella Culturist for the yoga schedule.

Now there’s no reason for you to skip the exercise during your staycation, because the facilities for you are already completed. Just remember, if your body is getting soar by the exercise at the gym, you can turn yourself for a spa session at Auriga Spa.

Well, it is really a one-stop staycation for all!

7. Leisure Time at The Living Room

The term “Living Room” in a hotel might confuse you. Especially when you heard that you can have leisure time at the Living Room. What kind of Living Room is it?

First of all, there’s a Library in the Capella’s Living Room consisting of magazines, some selection of books, and some Singapore historical books. You can come to the Living Room to read and drink tea, if you come around 3 PM to 5 PM.

Other than the Library, there are also some selection of DVDs that you can borrow and take to your room to watch. Anyway, the Living Room is quite drawing attention to all the visitors because it also provides some free snacks, other than the complimentary tea at the tea time (3-5 PM).

8. Join The Heritage Tour

You should pay more attention to the building’s architecture and style of Capella Singapore. It sure looks like a classic building, don’t you think?

While enjoying your Capella staycation, you should join the Heritage Tour they provided. In this Heritage Tour, you can learn about the history of the Capella’s bungalow building. Do you know that this majestic building was built in the 1880s? It was built for the British Officers.

Other than learning about the history of the building, you can also learn and enjoy almost 900 pieces of art that you can find inside the building. It must be very thrilling for you, art lovers!

Anyway, the Capella Culturist will also tell you about the five trees in the resort that aged over a hundred years old. This will be a really fun walk for you!

9. The Beautiful Rooms of Capella Singapore

There are so many Capella Staycation activities that you can enjoy here, but do not forget to talk about the beautiful rooms that you can choose for your Capella staycation. The room must be your first choice before you decide to book a staycation at Capella Singapore, right?

You can choose either rooms, suites, villas, or manors here in Capella Singapore. Let’s take a look at their room choices. The Premier Rooms are very luxurious. You can choose whether you want a sea view or a garden view.

Its most favorite room is the Constellation Room, completed with a balcony with a great view and an outdoor private jacuzzi to enjoy every time!

If room is not enough for you, then you can check the suites. There are two choices of suites, Sentosa Suites and Capella suites. Both of them have a sea view and place at the main building. Choosing suites as your staycation place will be very suitable if you want a larger and more private experience.

But, if you still need a larger place (with a private plunge pool too!), you can choose the Villas. Choose the villas according to your need. There’s a one bedroom villa and a two bedroom villa. Of course, choosing the villa will be more comfortable, especially for you who love a separate living area from other visitors.

Last but not least, of course, the Manors for the biggest choice of room. Capella Singapore only has three manors; the Colonial Manor, the Capella Manor, and the Contemporary Manor. The Colonial and Contemporary Manor have a private lap pool, while the Capella Manor has a private plunge pool. It’s your choice!

For a wiser decision, you need to suit your needs and budgets to your room’s choice. For example, if you’re not going with other 5 adults, maybe choosing a manor will be too big. Choosing a villa might be more convenient.

10. Enjoy The Green Scenery While Walking in Nature

The green scenery at Capella might be your first aim in choosing a place for your staycation. Join the walk in nature program, where you can experience a beautiful walking session surrounded by the Singapore Botanic Gardens. There will be a guide for you and this session will end with a Capella picnic.

Well, when was the last time you had a picnic in a garden?

You can enjoy the picnic on your Capella staycation while having a light bite, and try the Orchids Cake and a cup of Ginger Tea. Don’t forget to bring along your camera, because it will be an unforgettable moment and you can’t see this kind of scenery at any time!
