With multiple travel advisories and restrictions still in place, it may seem unrealistic to get away during the upcoming months.
For those itching to travel overseas, staycations are a practical alternative to unwind without having to navigate foreign streets, jostle through crowds, or manoeuvre logistical nightmares such as flight cancellations.
To help people understand the costs and benefits of staycation options, we gathered room rates from five affordable hotels with easy access to locales including Orchard, Bugis, Sentosa, and Tiong Bahru.

Lynn R. Welborn grew up on Carolina Beach in the 1970s and by all accounts, including his, had a terrific time.
Welborn began chronicling those adventures a few years ago in Crazy Beach, which probably qualifies as a roman a clef, a fancy literary term meaning that it s based on a true story but the names have been changed to protect the guilty.
He had so much fun that Crazy Beach has now extended into three volumes. Well, not volumes exactly. Welborn is a child of the golden age of the Rock Era. As a pre-teen, he and a buddy actually stowed away on a van to Woodstock THE Woodstock. (He has documentary evidence.) In those days, boys and girls, you didn t download your music; it came in 33 1/3 vinyl discs.
