^ salamat ulit ng marami sis rocky january pa punta namin kaso kailangan ko na ayusin itinerary namin kasi alis pa ko sa november-december.

[cartman]

goodluck sa 1 day trip namen to macau.

[~yufa~]

^haha ako din eh. Parang ngayon ko lang narealize na kulang ang 1 day. So I am trying to fit the most itenerary as possible without missing any great tourist spots in Macau and of course, within my budget. Mahirap din pala. Haha.

[tinapay]

question mga sis, di ba pwede ang HKD sa Macau? pano pag nag ride ka ng bus/cab tapos MOP yung rate na nakasulat, ano exchange rate? meron bang nakalagay both in MOP and HKD?

sis rocky: san yung lechon macau?

this weekend na yung HK-Macau trip ko pero di ko pa naayos IT namin, lalo na sa Macau... may map bang makukuha sa mga ferry port pagdating sa Macau?

[pink_baby]

^^sis tinatanggap sa macau ang hkd pero hindi tinatanggap sa hongkong ang MOP

ang conversion is 1mop = 1 hkd. hindi naman ganun kalayo kasi ang rate nila sa isat-isa thought slighty higher ang hkd sa mop

[rocky]

sis rocky: san yung lechon macau?

sa foodcourt ng new yaohan mall sis gilid sya ng hotel sintra. hanapin mo lang yong may mga nakadisplay na duck & lechon macau then mahaba ang pila sa bandang corner. hehe! checkwa kasi name ng resto.

[gorgeous_me]

^sayang sis rocky, nakalimutan namin yung lechon macau sa macau, sa hotel sintra pa naman kami nag-stay, hehe

[lheimatte]

Hala ganun pala kabilis maubos ang room sa hotel sintra, a friend checked today kung me available room pa sa hotel sintra na same ng sa min ni hubby for same date, hala wala na at yung available eh mas mataas ang rate sa nabook ko. Bute na lang pala I did a very early booking..

hi Sis, yung reservation ba sa hotel sintra is yung nasa website nila? no need na magsend ng payment? Yun lang reservation nila ang ipapakita ko tapos upon arrival sa kanila dun ka lang magbabayad?

[lheimatte]

Sis dime, kung sa hotel ka nag pareserve, sa hotel ka narin pay. Present mo lang confirmation letter sa hotel.
I booked sa agoda kasi mas mura ng 50hkd kesa sa hotel pero yun lang immediately charge sya sa credit card ko. Did the booking last aug pero when I checked agoda yesterday wala ng available na room na same rate na nakuha ko, mataas na sya ngaun.

We're going to Macau to watch the House of Dancing Water at the end of the month, we booked the Hard Rock hotel package (Hotel+Breakfast+House of Dancing Water tix for 2+Dragon Treasure's Show for 2) all for HKD 2,159... it's a good deal, lumalabas na 690 HKD lang yung room, coz the HDW ticket itself is already 1,360 HKD for B reserve category (2pax), and the Dragon treasure naman cost 100 HKD for 2.... im excited LOL, i read a lot of good reviews on this hotel, i hope it lives up to my expectations. I tried staying in Metropark Hotel which is crap by the way, and in Venetian Hotel naman which is nice but the place was too big for a person like me na tamad maglakad, ang layo kasi ng lakarin bago ka makapunta sa room dadaan ka pa sa mall and casino but overall it was nice.

I see..Thanks! Have you tried na their buffet breakfast? Ok kaya selection ng food?

[rocky]

^^sis prettybarbie, super good deal nga yang hotel package ng hard rock. sana makabalik uli ako ng macau & mapanood na yang HODW

[imeego]

mga sis, pag day tour lang ba sa macau pwede na ba ang 7 hours? eto lang plan naming puntahan: senado, ruins, fisherman's wharf, venetian and city of dreams until now di kasi ako maka-decide if mag-overnight ba kami kasi madodoble yung gastos namin sa hotel (si hubby naguguluhan na sa akin hehe)

[gorgeous_me]

^pwede naman sis, kaso paguran lang, hehe, basta lam nyo na yung pupuntahan nyo para walang masayang na oras,

[imeego]

^ay ganun, may kasama pa naman kaming 2 yo kid so di kami pwede ng mabilisan..ang hirap palang mag-plan ng itinerary   anyway, thanks sa reply sis

[lheimatte]

Not yet sis.  but on my booking sa Nov we got the one with breakfast.  Try namin sya.

[cassidy02]

What are the good restos around the Venetian? Or are there reasonable restos inside the Venetian? I'm guessing baka pricey dun kasi. Thanks in advance! 

[prettybarbie]

cassidy02 Venetian's Bella Suite has two Queen-sized beds and a full size sofa sleeper so kasya 5 pax don. The room is big, mga around 60-70 square meter, nice yung room specially the bathroom very elegant. May wireless internet access sa room... Okay naman sa Venetian pero when you book the room hindi pa kasama ang breakfast pero meron naman foodcourt and restos sa baba so it shouldnt be a problem.

Galaxy hotel is also nice, what i like most about this hotel is the complimentary mini bar, yung mini fridge puno ng drinks, chocolates and chips, enjoy ang kids  May wifi din sa room. Pero the bed configuration is either two single beds, 1 queen 1 single, or king lang, so definitely not for big group. Pero maganda yung hotel, meron silang ginawa na fake beach don complete with white sand (Grand Resort Deck)
