What All-Inclusive Actually Means When Renting a Condo Room in Tampines

“All-inclusive” sounds simple. But if you have rented rooms in Singapore before, you know the details matter. Some landlords say all-inclusive and mean WiFi only. Others include utilities but cap electricity at 50 kWh per month. This article explains exactly what is included at The Tampines Trilliant — and why it changes how you budget.

The Honest Version of All-Inclusive

At The Tampines Trilliant, all-inclusive means one monthly payment covers everything you need to live there. No separate bills. No monthly reconciliation. No surprises at the end of the month.

Here is what is included:

WiFi — High-speed broadband is included. You connect, it works. No router setup, no service plan to manage, no separate bill.

Electricity — Covered in full. Singapore’s tropical climate means air-conditioning runs regularly. At market rates, electricity alone can add S$60–120 to a monthly budget if billed separately. Here, it is zero — included without a cap.

Water — Included. PUB bills in a shared condo unit can be hard to split fairly. All-inclusive removes that problem entirely.

Air conditioning — Each room has its own air-conditioning unit. You control the temperature in your room. Running it as much as you need is fine — it is part of the inclusive package.

Condo facilities — This one matters more than most people realise when they first enquire. Residents have access to the full suite of facilities at The Tampines Trilliant: swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, gymnasium, BBQ pits, tennis court, and basement carpark. These are full condominium facilities in a 912-unit development built in 2014 on a 99-year leasehold site.

What It Actually Costs You Per Month

Room 1: S$1,400/month Room 2: S$1,350/month

That is your total monthly outgoing for accommodation. No WiFi bill on top. No electricity bill. No quarterly water bill. No negotiation about who used more air-conditioning.

For comparison, a room in an HDB flat in Tampines at a lower headline rent often has WiFi and utilities billed separately. Add those back in and the gap narrows considerably — while you also give up the pool, gym, and security.

The Bathroom Arrangement

Both rooms share one bathroom. Critically, only Room 1 and Room 2 share that bathroom. The owner has a separate private ensuite and will not use the shared bathroom at all. This is a meaningful difference from many shared arrangements where the landlord is cycling through the same space.

Who Lives There

The property is owner-occupied and the owner also lives in the unit. Contact us via WhatsApp in English or Mandarin.

There are no other tenants beyond the two rooms. This means you are sharing a flat with at most one other tenant and the owner — not six people in a converted HDB.

Minimum Tenancy

The minimum tenancy period is 6 months. Longer-term tenants are preferred. This suits professionals on employment passes, students on longer programmes, and anyone who wants stability without committing to a full year upfront.

How to Compare All-Inclusive Properly

If you are comparing this to other rooms in Tampines, add these costs back to any non-inclusive offer:

So a room listed at S$1,200/month with utilities separate often lands at S$1,300–1,390/month in practice — without the condo facilities, the pool, the gym, or the jacuzzi and sauna.

What Is Not Included

To be complete: cleaning of your own room is your responsibility. Personal laundry arrangements (washer and dryer are available in the unit). Furnishings are all included — bed frame and mattress, wardrobe, study desk and chair, air conditioner, bedside table. You bring your personal belongings. That is it.

Summary

All-inclusive at The Tampines Trilliant means WiFi, electricity, water, air-conditioning, and condo facilities — for S$1,350 or S$1,400 per month depending on the room. One number. WhatsApp us to arrange a viewing.
