Want to get out of your room to eat? There are plenty of alternatives. The Dragon Palace provides high-class Cantonese cuisine on the 4th floor and features a Chinese garden atmosphere and VIP rooms with wall-mounted plasma-screen televisions.

When you finish eating, head over to the Nice Lounge with cocktails, international beers and wine with a beautiful view of the outer Macau harbor.

Do you really want to unwind? Burn some calories at the fully-equipped fitness center or outdoor swimming pool and then head to the Eighteen Sauna, a 40,000 square-foot facility with pools, sauna rooms, VIP massage rooms, leisure zone, and mini-theatre.

When you’re done, get dressed and get ready for a night out. The Golden Dragon Night Club offers great music, private karaoke rooms, lighting and sound effects and a great dance floor.
