Lettings in a vibrant world-class city

A veritable melting pot of cultures, Singapore is a city with spark which has become one of Asia’s must-see destinations. One of the smallest countries in the world, you can find a holiday rental in any corner of it that you please. Stay in the downtown area right on the doorstep of the main attractions or find a letting that is only a short journey out of town in authentic neighbourhoods such as Jurung to the west and Golang to the east. Taxis are cheap and ubiquitous, so you can get around with great ease!

Top class holiday rentals

Singapore brings you high-quality lettings in a leading-edge urban environment. Luxury condos are widely available, with swimming pools, floor-to-ceiling windows, and immediate access to all the amenities you will need. Look out for the lettings that look out over the Botanic Gardens, and the luxury rentals on Sentosa island right next to the gorgeous tropical beach!

The area and getting around

An entire world in one city

Singapore’s charm lies in that it is small enough to quickly become familiar, yet large enough to constantly surprise. Each neighbourhood has a distinct personality, culture, and heritage that provides a unique insight into the city. Whatever you are looking for, Singapore has got you covered. For beach-time bliss and leisure attractions, head for Sentosa, the island just off the south coast of the city. For urban slick, Marina Bay – the central business district – is replete with stylish rooftop bars and restaurants competing for the best view of the cityscape.

A neighbourhood for everyone in Singapore

For authentic Singapore, Chinatown brings you atmospheric temples, heritage shophouses, and Michelin-starred hawker food. For the best shopping, Orchard Road is a two kilometre stretch of shopping heaven. Want to live like a local? Head to the neighbourhood of Katong, with its streets lined with brightly coloured heritage shophouses and authentic old-school kopitiams at every corner.

Singapore for families

There are dozens of world-class attractions to visit with kids in this fine part of the world. Where even to start? The Mint Museum of Toys is a large, purpose-built museum showcasing over 50,000 toys from 40 countries, and is undoubtedly, one of the best things to do with kids in the city. Singapore Zoo is outlandish! Large, lush and home to a massive variety of animals – from the usual tigers, lions, giraffes to polar bears and African penguins and even the hugely rare Komodo dragons and orangutans! Your children will be in heaven. But best of all has to be Snow City, an indoor play park where your kids can frolic in the snow despite being just north of the equator!

The local language is Singlish, essentially English but peppered with colourful local slang and catchphrases!

Top 5 travel tips in Singapore

1. Discover the delights of Chinatown

Chinatown is a shoppers paradise, with the widest range and best value souvenirs you will find anywhere, and it is, of course, home to the city’s best authentic Chinese food. Don’t miss Chinatown’s Thian Hock Keng Temple, the oldest in Singapore!

2. Spend a memorable day in a world-class theme park

Universal Studios Singapore features 24 cutting-edge rides and attractions in seven exotic themed zones including the Lost World, Ancient Egypt, New York, Hollywood, and Madagascar. The park is rated by many as even better than Disneyland!

3. Discover a tropical panorama

Escape from the concrete jungle and reconnect with nature at the treetop walk at MacRitchie Reservoir. It takes at least 3 hours to enjoy the trail at a distance of around 7km. If you have never seen a rainforest canopy from above, this is your chance!

4. Visit Singapore’s island of leisure

Sentosa is a purpose-built island just off the coast of Singapore which is home to a fine agglomeration of white, sandy beaches, exciting theme parks, great shopping and delicious dining opportunities on a strip of reclaimed land. Ramp up the fun factor by taking the cable car to the island!

5. Adrenaline junkies – this one’s for you!

Undoubtedly the most adrenaline-inducing activity in the city is the G-Max Reverse Bungy. You are catapulted skywards just like an astronaut in a rocket, accelerating to over 150 kilometres per hour and reaching a height of over 60 metres. Faint hearted?! This one’s not for you!
