The club, as said, is huge, and staff are very friendly. While the food selection equals a smaller version of a full buffet main restaurant, we weren't always impressed by the quality of F&B.
Other than that, the property is a vast, rather soul-less casino and shopping center. The pool areas are nothing to write home about, and they close down at 6pm (the nicer one) and 8:30pm in order to push people to the casino (I guess).
For a future stay I'd probably go back to the Westin, while a bit old it is clearly the more charming SPG hotel in Macau. When wanting to be on the strip I liked the grand hyatt better.
On a side note, we went for lunch at Rebouchon au Dome. To cut a long story short, this place would NEVER be a 3 star restaurant anywhere in Europe. I feel the Michelin testers have given in to the big name and the location. Better go with some local Portuguese or Asian food.
is the family suite just two connecting rooms with one room the kids stuff or is it two rooms with a living room as well?
Also can you take a ferry from Macau to Lantau island (HKG) or is there only one option to hong kong central?
