During short holidays, a staycation getaway is always our ideal choice.
Staycation getaway is a short holiday focusing more on rejuvenating the body & soul after a hectic, pressure lifestyle normally at a destination that is near, you have been to & familiar with. The aim – to truly relax & enjoy the holiday especially in the hotel to the fullest.
