We can’t always afford a ticket to far-flung corners of the world, or to dedicate a chunk of our leave to a holiday extravaganza. Sometimes, all it takes is a change of environment – in the form of a staycation with the love of your life – to relieve some of the stress and revitalise you for the weeks ahead.
From pretending to be newly-weds in your own luxury apartment, to soaking up views of the cityscape from a rooftop pool – here’s why your next lovers staycation should be at Pan Pacific Serviced Suites Beach Road, Singapore!
Classy bubble lifts, and breathtaking views of the Marina Bay skyline – we are no stranger to the wonders of Pan Pacific Singapore. With most of the 5-star limelight going to their Marina Square outfit, most of us have little knowledge of their little-known gem at Beach Road.
Nestled right next to Haji Lane, is the Pan Pacific Serviced Suites Beach Road, Singapore. I used to see serviced apartments as super atas short-stay condominiums for expats, and never would have expected it to cater to my 2-3 day staycay needs.
We checked into their 1 Bedroom Premium Suite, and we kid you not – this might just be your go-to for a much needed weekend city getaway. Read on find out what happens when your 5-star staycay goals actually materialise without you having to empty your savings.
Bathed in neutral tones and hues of grey, you’ll be transported to an alternate reality where this luxury apartment is your home. Fully decked out with a living area, dining area, and fully-equipped kitchenette, you’ll be able to lounge on the couch watching TV and add fresh experiences like whipping up a meal, or washing the dishes together to your couple checklist.
Complete with the convenience of a washer and dryer, you’ll be thankful you won’t have to lug a bag of soggy clothes home or splash on laundry services after your dip in the pool or late night gym sesh.
If your office is located in the CBD area, you’ll know the horrors of having a hotel room view of the buildings you see every day – or worse, your own office. Thankfully, Pan Pacific Serviced Suites on Beach Road is just far enough for you to escape the concrete jungle, yet close enough to give you a bird’s eye view of the Singapore Flyer.
Just from looking at the bedroom, you know you’ll be getting a good night’s rest. Wind down and cuddle up on a king-sized bed, whilst kicking back to your favourite block-buster on the LCD flat-screen TV mounted in front of the bed.
Floor-to-ceiling windows, velvet headboards and wooden furnishing – the stay might even give you a few interior decor ideas of your own!
It might not be 57 levels above ground, but we’d easily trade the vantage point for a little privacy. You can finally take a decent pool-side picture together without getting photobombed left, right, and centre by a horde of tourists.
They’ve also got deck chairs and fluffy towels available for you by so you can elevate your morning read to one with a breeze and view! Open all the way from 6.30AM-11PM, we recommend an evening dip as the panoramic views get even better when the Flyer is lit up.
Just because you’re on a staycation, doesn’t mean your fitness routine has to come to a halt. If a couple of laps in the pool is insufficient, head to their 24-hour gym right next door. Weights, treadmills, and elliptical trainers overlooking lush greenery – it’s a gym rat’s paradise.
And if you’re not the sort of couple to stay cooped up indoors all day, you don’t have to wrack your brains thinking of places to go or things to do because Haji lane is right across the street.
Home to quirky little local labels and indie brands, Haji Lane – and the lanes around it – gives you every reason to go on an evening stroll with bae exploring every nook and cranny. The men can even get a complete new look under the skilled hands of the gentlemen behind hybrid tattoo-barbershop, Hounds Of The Baskervilles.
If you wanna stay in but still have some fun, head down to The Living Room on Level 2. This resident lounge is filled with comfy sofas, books and entertainment facilities for you to enjoy. Challenge bae to a round of exciting Xbox – and own him at it – or have a game of pool to pass the afternoon.
While the entire experience might feel like your very own home, but should you ever feel like you need help, their 24-hour personalised services are always on standby. Just scroll through pages of online reviews, and you’ll know Pan Pacific Serviced Suites Beach Road has set a high bar for service standards in the industry.
Now tried and tested, I must say their service was really impressive – checking in took less than 5 minutes, and we were personally escorted to our suite on the 13th-storey. En route, we were given a full introduction to the facilities we could enjoy in the hotel and what to expect from our stay.
You might’ve also rushed out in the morning with an unmade bed and your clothes strewn across the floor, but you can come home to everything looking tidy and fresh once more.
Now don’t get too comfortable in the luxury of your suite, you’ve got to drag yourself out of bed for the most important meal of the day – BREAKFAST. To make matters better, every night of your stay entitles you to their eat-all-you-can continental breakfast spread over in the Pacific Lounge.
What’s breakfast without some really good eggs to kickstart your day? Have them poached or scrambled, done exactly the way you like them. Of all the ways a good egg can be served, I love Eggs Benedict the most. Nothing gets as satisfying as some oozy goodness from a freshly-poached egg atop a toasted english muffin.
Shuttle services are almost a given for all hotel staycations, but when you find one that extends beyond ‘the nearest MRT station’ – you know you gotta hop on. Their complimentary shuttle services teleports you straight to the heart of our vibrant city without the hassle transfers. You could also hop off at Orchard, Vivo or even Mustafa Centre for bargain shopping.
With the knowledge that many of their residents head out early for work, shuttle services start as early as 8AM and cover all main CBD routes. So if you’re heading straight to work the next morning, they’ve got you covered. Check out their detailed timings here.
