La Maison Du Whisky APAC

Boutique bottle shop La Maison Du Whisky (LMDW APAC) is where connoisseurs gather to discover rare Scotches and hard-to-find cognacs. Located in the vibrant Robertson Quay, with a view of the Singapore River, more than 1,000 premium whiskies, rums, brandies, gins and tequilas line the shop’s illuminated shelves. The staff are both friendly and well-versed with their formidable catalogue, so ask away. If you’re contemplating a bottle (or even if you’re not), it’s worth nabbing a seat at the marble counter.

Though compact, the bar has one of most comprehensive by-the-dram menus in the country, ranging from a Thai rum by Chalong Bay to the exceedingly rare Karuizawa 34-year-old Japanese whisky. Try their signature Old Fashioned, made with Blanton’s Original bourbon.

Collectors will want to keep a keen eye out for limited special releases such as the Kavalan 2016 Virgin Oak that’s bottled exclusively for Whisky Live Singapore, a highly anticipated fine spirits show organised annually by LMDW APAC.

The brand’s close working relationships with distilleries mean they have incredible access to absolute rarities, like the Barbados 16-year-old 2006 single cask from their own Transcontinental Rum Line, released in celebration of its 18th anniversary.

Oasia Resort Sentosa

For a wellness-centric stay within easy reach of Sentosa’s key attractions and restaurants, Oasia Resort Sentosa is hard to beat. Its award-winning spa serves up satisfying massages and treatments, and there’s a full suite of activities that you can join in during your stay. These include morning yoga, aqua pilates and bath scrub and soap-making workshops. You’ll need to reserve your slot for these activities with the front desk, and do check before the commencement of each activity in case they are cancelled or rescheduled without notice.

As of April 2024, the hotel introduced a new room category – the 19 Courtyard Premier rooms feature spacious al fresco spaces with bean bags that are perfect for lounging in the evenings. Enjoy a sumptuous a la carte breakfast spread at the on-site restaurant, Bedrock Origin. A word to the wise: reserve your table or come early to avoid the long lines that start around 9am, as the restaurant seating is limited.

21 Carpenter

The first thing you’ll notice about the 48 rooms at this boutique hotel is how every inch is thoughtfully designed and laden with local charm. Art by contemporary Singaporean artists clad the walls, while modern gadgets from Dyson and Bang & Olufsen sit alongside amenities by homegrown brands: think hand-thrown ceramics by Un Studio, repurposed glassware by Soda Lemon SG and bathrobes by IN GOOD COMPANY.

While more compact than most big hotel brands, 21 Carpenter boasts an unparalleled location and a stellar dine-in restaurant called Kee’s. The hotel occupies a former remittance house on the busy New Bridge Road, close to the artsy Civic District as well as the party central of Clarke Quay. When the sun goes down, adjourn to the high-ceilinged al fresco Garden Terrace on the third floor, and have the attentive staff at Kee’s send up your cocktails. The warm lights, cool breeze and chill vibes will make your evening one to remember.
