As the school holidays roll around, the idea of yet another vacation where the kids are glued to their devices does not feel like time well-spent. That is what we at Telunas Resorts are aiming to provide: screen-free holidays that create real space for reconnection, rest, and relationship. Here, you can expect a peaceful, nature-rich escape just 2.5 hours from Singapore by ferry, offering uninterrupted time together. The beauty of Telunas is not just in its emerald waters or soft sand beaches. It is what happens when families are gently removed from the digital noise and surrounded by nature instead. Without the usual distractions, you begin to notice each other again. Conversations flow more naturally, laughter returns, and shared moments take centre stage. ## The Power of Disconnection At Telunas, there is no in-room Wi-Fi. And that is intentional. Instead of notifications and endless doomscrolling, kids and adults are immersed in the real world: soft sand beaches, calm ocean waters, jungle trails, and open skies. Telunas is not about rules or restrictions - we intentionally curate the kind of environment where no one misses their devices because there is so much else to experience. ## Reconnect Through Real Play Once the screens are put away, something incredible happens: kids start to play again. And parents often join in. At Telunas Beach Resort, families can spend their afternoons chasing hermit crabs, building sandcastles, or creating their own beach games. Over at Telunas Private Island, kayaking together through quiet mangrove waters becomes a moment of teamwork and shared discovery. The island naturally encourages an unhurried pace. There is no rush, no rigid itinerary. Just pure freedom to enjoy each other's company and let the day unfold. ## Learn, Discover, and Wonder Together School holidays can also be moments of meaningful learning, especially outside the classroom. At Telunas, families can: Embark on forest walks and waterfall hikes that turn into hands-on nature lessons Join traditional Indonesian cooking classes and pottery-making sessions Visit nearby villages and engage with local communities These experiences open doors to organic curiosity, exploration, and connection in ways that screens simply cannot replicate. ## Meaningful Rest With the usual distractions out of the way, rest feels more intentional and deeply restorative. Parents can enjoy a soothing [beachside massage](/telunas-beach/massage/) at Telunas Beach Resort or opt for an [overwater massage](/private-island/overwater-massage/) at Telunas Private Island while their kids explore the outdoors in safe, supervised environments. As the day winds down, gather around a bonfire beneath a canopy of stars. Roast marshmallows, share stories, and enjoy the kind of presence that stays with you long after the trip ends. ## A School Holiday That Brings the Family Back Together This holiday season, do not just go somewhere different. Experience something that helps bring your family closer. Telunas Resorts offers more than a scenic island escape. It is a chance to pause, connect, and build lasting memories without the glow of a screen. ![Family relaxing on an overwater bungalow balcony at Telunas Beach Resort](/_next/image/?url=%2Fimages%2Fbeach-resort%2FFamily%20on%20Overwater%20Bungalow%20Balcony.jpg&w=3840&q=75&dpl=dpl_D6mbzuj3BPFctqAd2Bs5s7gDaRmj) Casual Family Adventure - Beach Resort ## Overwater Bungalow at Telunas Beach Resort A beachside overwater bungalow with space for a couple or small family, plus a wide range of scheduled activities included in your stay so kids have plenty to do away from screens.
