SINGAPORE – Most holidays begin with inspiration, then quickly turn into spreadsheets, bookings and mounting costs – especially during the June school holidays, when airfares climb and popular destinations overflow with crowds.

For families, the ideal break may be much closer to home.

Singaporeans are no stranger to staycations, with many embracing their convenience, especially as fuel costs drive up airfares around the world. 

In 2025, 16 per cent of hotel conglomerate Marriott International’s business in Singapore was driven by domestic stays, says Oriol Montal, regional vice-president of Luxury for Marriott International Asia-Pacific excluding China, and regional vice-president of its Singapore market. 

“Singaporeans have always had a strong appetite for travel and, increasingly, we are seeing that the desire to disconnect, recharge and spend quality time together does not always require getting on a plane,” he adds.

In line with the June school holidays, hotels in Singapore are rolling out family-friendly packages featuring complimentary activities, attraction passes and other perks for all ages.
