announcing on March 27 that they will shutter<\/a> due to the scheduled end of its lease with the Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC).<\/p>\nBoth Into the Woods and Tiny Away Escape are part of a limited-time pilot project by SDC to test the demand for eco-tourism and the business viability of such concepts in Singapore’s Southern Islands, which Lazarus Island is a part of.<\/p>\n
The activation of the Southern Islands was conceived as a proof-of-concept for three years, a SDC spokesperson previously told CNA.<\/p>\n
While Tiny Away Escape has made known that bookings for their tiny homes remain open until January 31, 2027, there are only months left before Into the Woods ceases to operate.<\/p>\n
“As we approach the final months of operation, we want to take the time to share our story with you \u2014 the things that made this place special, the people who made it possible, and the little moments that will live on long after the tents are gone,” said the founders of Into the Woods.<\/p>\n
Started in 2022 by a couple, Ray Lee and his wife Sam Wong, both aged 39, the boutique glamping experience focuses on “slow living” and being surrounded by nature, offering visitors a retreat from the fast-paced city life in Singapore.<\/p>\n
In the Woods has nine air-conditioned tents that can accommodate couples and families, and provides outdoor cooking facilities as well as shared bathroom facilities. It also welcomes guests with pets.<\/p>\n
