SINGAPORE – Staycation cottages provider Tiny Away Escape @ Lazarus Island will be winding down operations in February 2027.

In Facebook and Instagram posts on March 27, it announced that bookings for the holiday cottages on Lazarus Island are open until Jan 31, 2027, as it enters its “final chapter”.

“As this chapter begins to wind down, there is still time for a few more ferry rides, quiet walks by the shore, and peaceful mornings on the island,” the post reads.

The post did not state the reasons for the closure.

Singapore-based eco-tourism company Big Tiny operates five units on Lazarus Island – ranging from 139 sq ft to 167 sq ft in size – with prices starting from $284 a night, according to its website.

Opened in May 2023, the soon-to-close cottages are the first accommodation built on Lazarus Island for short-term stays.

Powered mainly by solar energy and built from sustainable materials, they are part of Sentosa Development Corp’s (SDC) initiatives to transform Lazarus Island into a destination for visitors to experience its rustic charm.

The Straits Times has contacted Big Tiny and SDC for more information.
