Not quite ready to sign a year-long lease? Or maybe you are waiting for a permanent home to be ready. For expat families, digital nomads, and professionals on short-term assignments, serviced apartments in Singapore offer a solid middle ground between a hotel and a rental flat.

You get fully equipped kitchens, in-unit laundry, housekeeping, and often a pool or gym. Some even allow pets. The flexibility is hard to beat, with stays ranging from a few nights to several months. Here is a closer look at which serviced residences might work for your next move.
