Off-grid island refuge
Solar panels power five modular cabins tucked along the shoreline, offering a rare off-grid escape just a short ferry ride from the mainland.
What it’s good at
Notable
Modular cabins built from sustainable composite timber, featuring compact layouts and interiors styled around distinct design eras.
Notable
Rare overnight stays on car-free Lazarus Island, with coastal walking trails crossing the causeway to St. John's Island.
Listed
Shoreline tiny houses offering direct access to Lazarus Beach's white sands, rented bicycles, and calm cove swimming.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Connected causeways lead to quiet sandy coves and coastal trails, completely free of cars and urban traffic.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling one-way mirrored glass frames the coastal greenery, while private outdoor patios come equipped with portable smokeless grills.
How it began
Ecotourism start-up Big Tiny partnered with Sentosa Development Corporation in 2023 to introduce the first commercial overnight stays to the island.
