Six spots to consider for your next overseas adventure

At InterContinental Singapore, you’re immersed in heritage with Peranakan-inspired design, offering an elegant base close to the city’s iconic spots. Indulge in a taste of Singapore at the hotel’s Man Fu Yuan restaurant, known for its refined Cantonese cuisine, or relax at the rooftop pool with sweeping city views, perfect for unwinding after city explorations.

Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok

Bangkok is packed with palaces, temples and museums. Beneath glittering skyscrapers and modern shopping malls, traditional life goes on as street stalls sizzle with food, ferries chug along the Chao Phraya River, and monks glide through temple courtyards. Plunge into Bangkok’s markets, admire its golden stupas, enjoy rooftop bars and the exciting nightlife, and tuck into Thai cuisine’s spicy flavours in this exhilarating city that assaults all the senses.

After a day of adventure, the Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok is your urban sanctuary. The tranquil, greenery-framed pool creates a secluded oasis, while the spa combines Thai traditions with modern wellness. Dining here is a highlight: Stock.Room offers market-style global flavours, Ms. Jigger brings intimate Italian dining, and CRAFT transitions from artisanal coffee by day to cocktails by night – well-suited for a chic Bangkok evening.

InterContinental Bali Resort

InterContinental Bali Resort sits amid lush, landscaped gardens right on the beach at laidback Jimbaran Bay, and has six pools, tennis courts, a kids’ club and luxury spa at which to while away your days. For a unique culinary experience, guests can enjoy the resort’s beachfront dining with fresh seafood grills, or join an authentic Balinese cooking class, immersing themselves in local traditions and delicious flavours.

When it’s time to explore, Jimbaran offers a more relaxed, local alternative to Bali’s busier destinations. Wander through residential streets, stop at neighbourhood temples, and explore the nearby, surf-pounded Bukit Peninsula.

At day’s end, wiggle your toes in the sand and watch the sun set in an orange sky as you enjoy a cocktail and Balinese curry for a chill-out way to end the day.

Hotel Indigo Tokyo Shibuya

For some, a great getaway means urban excitement, and Tokyo, Japan’s buzzing mega-city offers it all – eateries, bars, entertainment, fashion boutiques, and eclectic districts. Shibuya is one of Tokyo’s most vibrant neighbourhoods, where neon-lit alleys meet bustling shopping streets, and locals browse trendy homeware and fashion.

Hotel Indigo Tokyo Shibuya places you right in the heart of the action, overlooking the iconic Shibuya Scramble Crossing. This stylish retreat draws inspiration from Shibuya’s vibrant art scene, with rooms featuring bold murals and floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping city views. Its rooftop bar serves inventive cocktails crafted with local ingredients, offering a dazzling nighttime panorama.

InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau

The busiest traffic you’ll encounter in the Maldives are shoals of butterfly-bright fish in turquoise lagoons. The only noise is the breeze in coconut trees and lap of water on white sand. The Maldives are bejewelled islands for those who think summer escapes are all about romance, luxury indulgence, or do-noting holidays. Snooze in the shade, have a swim, go snorkelling for an encounter with manta rays and turtles.

Set on a private island, InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau adds layers of indulgence to every moment. Savour a variety of dining experiences, from Mediterranean at The Lighthouse with panoramic ocean views to island-inspired cuisine at Fish Market, where fresh seafood is the star.

For ultimate relaxation, unwind at the award-winning Avi Spa, nestled over the lagoon and offering treatments with a focus on marine-inspired wellness. Opt for an overwater villa with direct access to the crystal-clear lagoon or a beachfront suite for a more secluded retreat. Here, your greatest challenge is deciding where to enjoy the endless tranquillity of this tropical paradise.
