We headed to Macau for two days to celebrate my father's birthday - Macau is a Special Administrative Region in China, like Hong Kong, and was a Portuguese colony for the better part of the 20th century. Although it has some lovely European colonial architecture and a unique cuisine, it's best known for being a gambling mecca. I still recall my visits there 25 years ago - well, it's changed a lot. It now takes in more gambling revenue on a daily basis than Las Vegas.
A family friend was a high roller (i.e. big gambler) at the Venetian and arranged for 3 complimentary rooms for our party using his apparently very large balance of casino credits. When we arrived (picked up by many bowing people in private vans at the ferry terminal) we were ushered up to an extremely large 3 bedroom
high roller suite and asked if that "would be ok" instead of 3 regular rooms. We quickly agreed ;)
The suite was unbelievable - probably around 3,000 sq feet with 3 large bedrooms with enormous walk in closets and bathrooms, plus a workout room with sauna and steam room, a massage room with massage table, 2 (yes, TWO!) salon rooms with hairdressing chairs, a kitchen, a media room, a dining room and 3 other large sitting areas. And really nice bath products (Bulgari The Vert - mmmm, good).
We counted 12 TVs in the whole suite - including 2 bath tub TVs (the kids were in heaven!)
It looks ordinary enough, but has a sensor so the seat cover raises when you walk into the room. The seat is heated so wonderfully that it's a joy to sit down.
