Looking to book a friendcation? Or do you want to celebrate a special occasion for a night, like a birthday or a bachelorette? There are a lot of chalets in Singapore that you can consider booking instead of a hotel, so you'll enjoy more privacy but the same accessibility to certain attractions. Chalets are often an entire house all to yourself, giving you a sense of a home away from home. They can also sometimes be multi-storey flats within a building. They can also sometimes be more affordable than other accommodations, which is great if you're staying only for a night or two. Here are some options you can consider booking in the future.
