Come closer. I want to tell you a secret.<\/p>\n<p>My family and I had the best <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hong-kong\/staycation-in-hong-kong-hotels-boutique-luxury\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">staycation<\/a> a few weeks ago. It wasn\u2019t anything fancy. But in this feverish season of \u201crevenge spending,\u201d I think the \u201cunfanciness\u201d was exactly what made it the best weekend we have spent together as a family in a long time.<\/p>\n<p>We didn\u2019t book any <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hong-kong\/best-hotel-spas-in-hong-kong\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">spa<\/a> treatments. We didn\u2019t indulge in any <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hong-kong\/best-dinner-buffets-in-hong-kong-all-you-can-eat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">buffets<\/a>. There were no staycation special programmes or featured amenities. Size wise, the room was intimate for the three of us (although it easily accommodated a trundle bed for my daughter), but the view was so great that it more than made up for it.<\/p>\n<p>We ate at the same restaurant for two days in a row, and everything was delicious. We basically spent as much time by the pool as the hotel allowed, and enjoyed the buzzy thrill of being in the thick of things on Hong Kong island\u2014which was a novelty since we live on Lantau.<\/p>\n<p>Where was this miraculous, perfect, unicorn family staycation? I both want to tell you because it was so good that I feel guilty for not sharing, but I also don\u2019t want to tell you because I\u2019m afraid that word will get out and it will be spoiled.<\/p>\n<p>But, okay, fine. Pinky swear that you won\u2019t wreck it?<\/p>\n<p>Our summer holiday saviour: a family staycation at <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hong-kong\/best-hotels-hong-kong-east-hong-kong-new-favourite-hotel-tai-koo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">EAST Hong Kong<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Stay-what?<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_183299\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-183299\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-183299 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-BEAST-pool-1-900x675.jpg\" alt=\"family staycation EAST Hong Kong BEAST pool\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-BEAST-pool-1-900x675.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-BEAST-pool-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-BEAST-pool-1.jpg 1333w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/675;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-183299\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My family staycation happy place at EAST Hong Kong.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The concept of a staycation is a funny thing. I don\u2019t think my parents have ever spent money on one. Certainly, when I was a kid, there were more urgent necessities on which my family spent money. Things like shoes and school supplies, for example. But we also lived on four acres of land in rural southern New Mexico. So when we wanted to get away, we did so by taking a long walk straight out the front door.<\/p>\n<p>Quite a bit different from the 500 square foot apartment in Hong Kong that my five year old daughter currently calls home. (Although, she can also take a long walk straight out the front door and into the mountains on Lantau. But I digress.)<\/p>\n<p>In more hopeful times, earlier this year, I had planned to take my daughter back to the US to visit her grandparents over the summer holiday. But when it became clear that was not to be (thanks Delta variant), we hunkered down for a long, hot summer at home in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p>And we started thinking about staycations.<\/p>\n<p>It seemed like everyone was doing it. Every time I bumped into a friend, they had either just come home from one or had just booked one for an upcoming weekend. Merits were debated; Disneyland or Ocean Park? With kids or without kids? In-room dining or buffet bonanza?<\/p>\n<p>As a family, we have tried to be pretty COVID cautious. So I was apprehensive about the possibility of a mandatory quarantine order as a result of a hotel stay. But as Hong Kong\u2019s vaccination rate improved, I started to have compelling fantasies about a blissful weekend with no laundry to be folded, no groceries to be bought, no meals to be cooked. We had airline miles that were expiring (like everyone else), and my husband\u2019s birthday was coming up. So we said, why the hell not?<\/p>\n<h3>Family Staycation at EAST Hong Kong<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_183297\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-183297\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-183297 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-harbour-view-room-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"family staycation EAST Hong Kong harbour view room\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-harbour-view-room-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-harbour-view-room-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-harbour-view-room.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-183297\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">You could spend all day looking out this window.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It turns out that our timing was perfect! EAST Hong Kong, part of Swire Hotels and located in the heart of Taikoo Shing on the east side of Hong Kong island, has recently completed a top to bottom design refresh. We were impressed by the thoughtful design elements in our room and\u2014as previously mentioned\u2014blown away by the spectacular harbour view.<\/p>\n<p>We checked in on Friday afternoon and I headed upstairs to Domain, EAST Hong Kong\u2019s part-cafe\/part-coworking space, to finish up some work while my husband and daughter bounced (literally) off to an afternoon at nearby Ryze Hong Kong trampoline park. The baked goods selection at Domain is dangerously delicious, and I was tempted, but instead I treated myself to their newly released Bao Beer. A collaboration with the Hong Kong microbrewery H.K. Lovecraft, Bao Beer was inspired by a sustainability initiative to reduce food waste by converting Domain\u2019s surplus bread into a consumable product. The end result, I am happy to report, is an amber beer with malty and toasty flavours, balanced by a slight bitterness from the subtle German hops. It was so good, that I ordered it again later that night at our dinner at Mr &amp; Mrs Fox. My husband and I both ordered the grilled salmon with zucchini tagliatelle, but the scene stealer was my daughter\u2019s macaroni and cheese from the children\u2019s menu. In a true act of love and self-sacrifice, my husband let me have the last bite of her leftovers.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday was the ultimate chilled-out family day. I would like to tell you that we slept in but\u2014blackout curtains be damned\u2014my daughter is constitutionally incapable of it. So my husband and I made ourselves some espresso with the in-room Nespresso machine, and then pottered about in our pajamas\u2014checking out the view, cuddling, reading stories, and playing games with our daughter. Eventually she demanded that we feed her and so we headed down to Domain. Alas, no beer for breakfast, but the cappuccino was on point, as was the brioche breakfast bun with fried eggs, avocado and pistachio pesto.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_183301\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-183301\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-183301 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-Domain-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"family staycation EAST Hong Kong Domain barista bar\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-Domain-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-Domain-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/09\/family-staycation-EAST-Hong-Kong-Domain.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-183301\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Does your child sleep in past 6am? If not, be like us and make friends with the baristas at Domain.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In the afternoon, we enjoyed the pool\u2014which is fortuitously partially shaded by surrounding buildings from about 2pm onward\u2014followed by sunset drinks at the rooftop bar, Sugar. My daughter snacked on popcorn and waited patiently for us to finish our cocktails before asking to go back to the room for some television time. (She\u2019s a big fan of the animal programmes on the BBC Earth channel, which we don\u2019t get at home.) And since the view from our room was almost as good as from the rooftop bar, we had no objections. In-room dining sorted dinner, and we were all tucked into bed by 9pm. And it was HEAVEN.<\/p>\n<p>The next day followed much the same, and we were all more than a little sad to drive away in the taxi after checking out in the afternoon. The generous staff at EAST took such good care of us all weekend, that we were able to really escape and enjoy being in our own little family cocoon. I can\u2019t wait to come back for another family staycation at EAST Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easthotels.com\/en\/hongkong\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">EAST Hong Kong<\/a>, 29 Tai Koo Shing Road, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong, p. 3968 3968. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Psst.
