Macau Guide (Thread 6)

[prettybarbie]

^ 1.5 hr yung show so kung 5pm yung start matatapos yon ng 6:30 PM then lets say mga 7 ka na makakuha ng taxi so mga 7:30 Pm na kayo makakarating sa airport, sa tingin ko abot pa kayo sa flight nyo

[kikaygimikera]

I have a question mga sis:

1. I booked a one night in Venetian Macau po thru Asia travel. Nakalagay dun "full Payment at Reservations & non-refundable". I asked Asia travel about it and they said "the hotel charged the room fee on your credit card already." BUT wala pa rin? I am checking my CC everyday kasi, di pa din na chacharge...

Ano to? Kelan siya ma chacharge? sa Next billing? Bakit wala pa rin nagrereflect? hindi ba real time yung TEXT TO BALCC to 2274 ng BPI?


2. We are going to stay in Macau for 4D3N and arriving 9:30PM in Macau. I booked The Venetian on our 3rd night. Naisip ko these two options:

a. 1st night spent outside and will not check in (me & bf would like to roam around the casinos at night) and check in at Hotel Sintra on our 2nd night for 6K per night or...

b. 1st and 2nd night spent at The Victoria Hotel near the Border Gate (medyo malayo sa City Center) but 2 nights would cost us the 1 night in Hotel Sintra? Gusto ko lang dun, parang ma experience namin [textspeak!] LOCALs dun sa area. Hindi ba hassle? I dont want to spend much na lang on the accomodations, naisip ko lang.

I cant decide :/

[prettybarbie]

^ na charge na yon pero minsan late nag rereflect sa bill, wait ka pa ng ilang days lalabas din yon

[imeego]

yehey naka-book na ako ng room sa sintra,  after ko mag-isip ng matagal hehe...naisip ko di bale na madoble bayad namin sa hotel (hongkong and macau) basta maka-stay lang kami ng mas matagal at makapag-overnight kami sa macau we will arrive there at around 2-3 pm na, so after mag-check in diretso na kami city of dreams then venetian, tapos balik sa gabi para punta naman ng wynn, the folowing day na lang kami punta ng senado, ruins etc...excited lang hehe

[allcat]

[rocky]

^sis, from venetian hindi mo na kelangan pang sumakay ng shuttle papuntang city of dreams. hehe! pwede ng lakarin yon, isang tumbling lang nandon ka na. pag nasa sands ka naman sis, tawid lang din papuntang fisherman's wharf. kung masarap na eggtart hanap mo, sa senado square dami don.

[allcat]

sis rocky thanks... di talaga ako magaling sa mga daan last december lang nandon kami ni hindi ako nakapunta sa city of dreams and fisherman's wharf.. nabulok na kami sa venetian tsaka galaxy.. thanks ulit sis

[rocky]

^i see, halos magkasunod lang pala tayo nandon sis. ako naman last week ng november. since ako lang mag-isa that time, wala akong iniintinding pakikisamahan kaya hawak ko oras ko & kung san ko gustong pumunta. wala akong ginastos sa bus, lahat free shuttle sinakyan ko except nong galing akong airport kasi gabi na non & nong pumunta akong taipa village. ayun, mas matagal akong nasa labas panay ang lakad & pic then halos madaling araw na pag bumalik sa guesthouse.

Okay lang po ba na sa Macau first destination namin tapos saka kami mag-Hong Kong? Mas mura kasi ang roundtrip tickets pag ganun ang ginawa.

wala naman problema doon sister imo hehe, though yung samin mas naenjoy namin na HK muna kase lagare talaga sa lakad sa dami ng attractions don so pagdating namin ng macau, chillax na lang kami since wala din naman masyado magagawa / mapupuntahan sa macau, parang pampatanggal pagod from HK.

but kung mura yung macau-hk why not poknat. how much difference pala sis? kase kapag nagccheck ako halos same prices lang sila pareho

[prettybarbie]

We watched the House of Dancing water yesterday.... i enjoyed it, it was amazing! ang ganda ng mga props nila. Sulit yung binayad namin. We bought the Reserve B tickets which i think has the best view, except for the VIP of course, kasi yung RESERVE A seats nasa taas sya ng VIP and RESERVE B so mejo malayo sa stage unlike nung sa RESERVE B na super lapit sa stage pero mejo mababasa kayo, but you can see the show closely, and also they give out towels kayo okay lang, it's actually part of the fun. I wont recommend it pag may kasama kayong toddlers, kasi mejo nakakatakot yung sound effects. We watched with our 3 year old and natakot sya, natulog na lang sya the whole time.

We were supposed to stay in Hard Rock Hotel but we cancelled our booking due to some minor issues, so we decided to stay na lang in Galaxy Hotel. They allow early check in kaya 9am pa lang nasa room na kami. Okay naman yung room with complimentary mini bar, and when they found out that we're celebrating our anniversary, they send us complimentary cake with a "Happy Anniversary" message. I like this hotel compared to Venetian,  i have stayed in Venetian and napagod ako kalalakad papunta pa lang ng room pagod ka na hehe plus it's too crowded there...
Enjoy yung daughter ko sa Grand Resort Deck habang naglalaro sya ng sand, feeling nya nasa beach sya LOL, okay din yung Kidz Island it's an indoor play area, with a dress-up room and arts and crafts area (HKD 68 for 2 hrs for 1 kid and 1 adult).

Natuwa din yung anak ko sa "mermaid" don sa City of Dreams, amazed na amazed sya, paulit ulit nya sinasabi "wow" hehe.

We had lunch in the legendary Fernando's in Hac Sa Beach. Surprisingly hindi matao kahapon, pero may ilan na nakaabang na sa labas bago pa mag open ng 12. The food was great, malaki yung portion nila. We tried the Fernando's style clams and masarap sya, fave naman ni hubs yung fried prawns with garlic, the best din yung honey suckling pig which is so tender yet very crispy. We ordered 5 dishes with a large bottle of water it costs us around HKD 500, not cheap but not too expensive either.

[rocky]

^yang HODW talaga ang gusto kong mapanood. sana pagbalik ko ng macau mapanood ko na talaga sya

[lheimatte]

Mga sis, magkano ang fee sa HOWD?

[rocky]

^VIP - HKD1380
A Reserve - HKD880
B Reserve - HKD680
C Reserve - HKD480

[prettybarbie]

Okay na okay ang B Reserve  wag lang yung C kasi nasa likod na yon at nasa pinakataas pa. Yung A naman nasa taas naman ng B mas mahal yon kasi di sila mababasa pero mas maganda naman pag malapit ka sa stage kasi tumatayo sa mga gilid ng stage yung mga performers tapos sumasayaw sila, kung nasa first row ka as in mahahawakan mo sila tapos nakakatawa kasi minsan sinasadya nilang mambasa ng tubig sabay wink LOL, kaya tawanan at sigawan yung mga tao pag nababasa sila. May mga towel naman silang binibigay don, kaya okay lang. Kapag nasa first row ka mejo nakakagulat kasi bigla na lang lumulutang yung mga performers sa tubig na mapapaisip ka kung san sila galing tapos nanggugulat sila. Kaya naman yung anak ko takot na takot sabayan pa ng sound effects. Pero love story sya, sa umpisa lang nakakagulat hehe.
