VILLA SAMADHI SINGAPORE

Housed in a 20th-century colonial building amidst the greenery of Labrador Nature Reserve, the newly opened Villa Samadhi Singapore pays tribute to the charm of old Malaya, pairing modern amenities with an unmistakable rustic-luxe character. Its 20 spacious rooms all offer a king-sized bed and views of towering trees, while guests can unwind at the exclusive lounge and bar inside the Library, an airy upper-floor space with shuttered windows looking out onto an urban oasis. A two-minute stroll via a jungle boardwalk takes guests to Tamarind Hill, which serves 100 traditional and modern Thai dishes created from heirloom recipes. For stays until April 30, 2017, Villa Samadhi’s opening special includes 20 percent off the best available rate, with daily breakfast, evening cocktails at the Library, as well as a signature turndown service offering complimentary Cognac, Asian snacks, and chocolate. 20 Labrador Villa Road, Singapore; 65/6274-5674; villasamadhi.com.sg
