RWS Christmas Hotels 2026: Compare the Three Stay Packages
Resorts World Sentosa’s 2026 Season of Joy page lists two attraction-led hotel bundles and a separate Family Stay Package. The important choice is between tickets for two adults and a family breakfast-and-voucher stay, not simply which hotel has the lowest displayed price.

Hotel Ora and Equarius: a two-park stay
The Season of Joy bundle combines a minimum two-night Deluxe Room stay with breakfast for two, two adult one-day tickets each to Universal Studios Singapore and Singapore Oceanarium, and same-day theme-park re-entry. The adult tickets are for ages 13 and above.
For two adults who want both parks, that is a useful starting point. For parents travelling with younger children, add their admissions before comparing totals. A bundle sold by a family-friendly resort does not automatically include a park ticket for every room occupant.
If you also want a lower-cost evening outside the parks, our WEAVE Christmas guide covers that separate part of the resort. Do not book another attraction simply because you are staying nearby.

What does The Laurus add?
The Laurus version uses a Deluxe Suite and adds two Universal Express Passes to the two-park ticket bundle. RWS describes its suite as 72 sq m, compared with the listed 32 sq m Hotel Ora room and 51 sq m Equarius room.
The official Christmas guide confirms that Express is the key extra in this hotel bundle. Ask for the pass type, participating rides and restrictions. Do not confuse it with the separately sold Festive Perks attraction product, whose benefits are described differently.
Pay more for the suite or Express only if those address a real need. A larger room may matter more to a family spending afternoons resting; quicker ride access may matter more to keen theme-park visitors. Neither can guarantee a crowd-free day.
The Family Stay Package solves a different problem
The separate family package includes a two-night Deluxe stay at Ora or Equarius, breakfast for two adults and two children, one extra bed, S$200 in RWS gift vouchers, parking and a replenished minibar. Attraction admission is not listed.
This can be the better comparison for a family who wants hotel time, dining and perhaps just one attraction. Price the tickets you actually want separately, then check where and when the voucher can be spent. Its face value is not cash and should not be deducted from the room bill without checking the terms.
For two adults and two children, make two complete baskets: the adult-ticket bundle plus children’s costs, and the family package plus everyone’s chosen tickets. Include bedding and breakfast in both. The cheaper headline can change once the missing items are added.
Ticket validity and the booking checks
The attraction bundles give the included tickets a seven-consecutive-day validity period from issuance. Ask when issuance occurs and how that fits your stay. Seven days of validity does not mean seven days of admission.
RWS’s festive programme runs from 27 November to 3 January. Confirm each rate’s own booking and stay rules instead of treating those event dates as universal hotel terms. A page showing a room-selection button is also not proof of availability for your dates.
Before payment, get the final SGD total, child ages, sleeping arrangement, cancellation rules and ticket redemption instructions together. If visiting a park on checkout day, ask about luggage storage and the practical re-entry process.
