Forget five stars—boutique staycations are the new thing

Craving for a quirkier, more offbeat staycation? Try a boutique hotel instead for a cozier (and usually more wallet-friendly) experience. Here are some new staycation packages that caught our eye:

For lovebirds

With New Majestic Hotel‘s “Lovelicious Summer” package, there are the usual romantic perks like heart-shaped chocolates, a bottle of wine, rose petals and more. The package is priced from $329 upwards; reserve via www.newmajestichotel.com

For outdoorsy types

Book a stay with Wanderlust Hotel and get mouthwatering goodies from Cocotte—niçoise salad, poulet roti sandwiches, cherry chocolate cake, two bottles of water and a mat, all packed into a cute little wicker picnic basket. You’ll also be given a recommended picnic spots guide, so you can go traipsing all around the island. Prices start from $249 upwards; valid only for stays from Fri-Sun. Visit www.wanderlusthotel.com for more info. 

For health freaks

If you go for Oasia Hotel‘s Wellness package, you’ll not only get a buffet breakfast, evening cocktails and club lounge access, but also a spa session (an aromatic oil full body massage, plus either a mani/pedi, body exfoliation or a hydrating facial) and an optional, healthy food spread delivered straight to your room after the session. The package costs $428 upwards; learn more at www.oasiahotel.com
