Galaxy Macau

The Maven Meter: Galaxy Macau Casino & Hotel

(Last updated: August 7, 2026)

GALAXY MACAU OVERVIEW

Like a fat man at a buffet, Galaxy Macau just keeps getting bigger and bigger.  Construction works continue unabated to this day with two or three hotels currently under development, with 8 already completed and open for business!  Whenever this monster gets finished, it very well could be the largest integrated resort in the world, with Phase 4 scheduled to drop in 2027, promising more hotels, retail space, 4,000-seat theatre, and water resort deck.

Debuting on May 15, 2011, Galaxy Entertainment’s flagship property was initially composed of two hotel towers, three hotels, more than 50 restaurants and the stunning Grand Resort Deck, which still drops jaws a decade on.  The property expanded four years later on May 27th, 2015, with the unveiling of the third tower and two new luxury hotels – the Ritz-Carlton and JW Marriott.  The shopping Promenade nearly tripled in size while the Grand Resort Deck grew to over 75,000 square meters, and now includes the world’s longest Skytop Aquatic Adventure River Ride.

2023 saw the property reach new heights again, with the unveiling of Macau’s largest indoor entertainment venue, the 16,000 seat Galaxy Arena, in conjunction with a convention centre and two more hotels: the long awaited Raffles at Galaxy Macau, and the arty Andaz, which could be the Cotai Strip’s best budget option.  2025 witnessed the soft launch of the Capella, a hotel featuring 36 villas and 57 jungle themed suites, at prices that start from $30,000 a night.  Suffice to say, I won’t be living there anytime soon!

In 2015 I remember warning the Venetian and City of Dreams that there might be a new Sheriff in town, and indeed there was. By 2018, Galaxy Macau usurped the Venetian to become the most profitable casino resort in Macau, their World Class Asian Heart beating strong and proud, beating down every other competitor on the Cotai Strip.

Basically, if you’re staying anywhere in Cotai, it’s hard to argue that Galaxy Macau shouldn’t be that place.

GALAXY MACAU CASINO GAMES

Minimums have fallen a little in 2026, with $300 tables now available for a few games.

Baccarat – I didn’t see any Baccarat tables at all on the main floor.  They’ll be in high limit though, probably starting from $3000 a hand.

Commission Free Baccarat – Won Dealer bets totalling 6 pay 50%.  Minimum bet is $500.

Blackjack – Minimum bet is $500.  However, there is a report it goes down to $300 during weekday mornings.  Thanks Able!

Also has Lucky 7 and Over/Under 13 side bets from $50.

Caribbean Stud Poker – Proper 100-1 payout on a Royal Flush.  Minimum bet is a rich $500.  To play the progressive, the side bet is $50.  Last time I was there, the jackpot was a pathetic 1.3 million dollars.

Craps – The Pass Line bet is down to $300, with nice 5-5-5 odds.  Also has Big 6 and Big 8, two bets which should be illegal.

Roulette – Inside bets are $100, while Outside bets are $500.  Like most things in life, too rich for my blood.

Sic Bo – 11 bets available, minimum bet is $300.

Slot Machines – Around 1200 slots with lows from 10 cents to $10.  There’s also Live Gaming Baccarat ($50 or $100) and electronic versions of Baccarat ($10), Blackjack ($10), Roulette ($10), and Sic Bo ($20).

Three Card Poker – Minimums start from $500.  The 6 Card bonus side bet is $100.

GALAXY MACAU PROMOTIONS

Galaxy probably has the best player card and promotions in all of Macau.

Player Card – The Galaxy player card is good to use at Galaxy Macau and Starworld Macau. There are four different cards available: the introductory Gold card, the Platinum, the Black and the Diamond.  In order to move up the ranks, players only need to amass 38 points to earn the Platinum card and then another 2000 points for the Black card.  Diamond card holders will be privately invited.

Members accumulate both Privilege Points and Privilege Dollars through gaming.  Privilege Points are used to determine when members move up to the next tier of Player Card, while Privilege Dollars are used to redeem prizes or buy F&B, hotel rooms and other products and services in Galaxy, Starworld and Broadway Macau hotels.  The cards also entitle members to dining and shopping discounts in the aforementioned properties, with Gold members receiving 10% off, Platinum members 15% and Diamond and Black 20%.

Privilege Dollars can be accumulated through table play at the following rate: cash bets averaging $100 over an hour earn 1 point, cash bets averaging $200 earn 2 points, cash bets averaging $500 earn 5 points etc.  Slot players meanwhile earn 1 point for every $400 bet on the machines.

Galaxy does such a great job advertising their Player Card and Membership Program that I’m not going to go any further.  Check out their GEG Membership Rewards website for latest information about gift redemption items and current promotions.

For recreational gamers, the ones tied to daily point accumulation will be the ones you’ll want to know about first.

GALAXY MACAU VIP GAMING

Galaxy’s cash back program for high rollers returns the following commission rates and comp allowance:

Free Standard rooms can be had after rolling $400,000, for a maximum of 3 times per month.

GALAXY HOTEL

With almost 1500 rooms and suites, Galaxy is the largest hotel at Galaxy Macau.  It used to cost around $1200 per night, but weekday rates are up to a shocking $3646, as of July 2025.

There’s nothing available on weekends either, which makes you wonder what the hell is going on there.

HOTEL OKURA

The same business is happening at Hotel Okura.  Deluxe Twins are going for $3817 midweek, while Premier Suites are an astronomical $8812.  The Deluxe Twins used to cost $1450 in 2023!

Not that it matters that much to anyone, but I’ve always been a big fan of Hotel Okura’s simple understated lobby.

BANYAN TREE HOTEL

Until the Ritz Carlton came along, Banyan Tree was Galaxy’s most luxurious hotel by a very fair margin.

I haven’t stayed there yet so I can’t show you any pictures, but feel free to check them out on the Galaxy website here: Banyan Room Grades.

As of July 2025, the only room I see available is a Cotai Pool Suite for a whopping $8,047.

Banyan Tree Spa

Banyan Tree Spa is open to the public and serves guests from all 5 hotels.  The only thing available is treatments, which means there’s no door pass option and when your treatment finishes, so are you.

They have two different price rates: Standard, defined as Friday to Sunday and Off Peak, defined as Monday to Thursday.  For this review, I’ve used the Standard prices only, which are generally about $100 to $300 more expensive than Off Peak, depending on the treatment.

Many of the treatments are a mix and match of massage, baths, scrubs and facials.  Most are either 90 or 120 minutes and run between $2200 and $2800.  The longest treatments last 150 minutes and cost $3400.

Other services include straight up massage for 75 or 90 minutes ($1780 to $1980), 60 to 90 minute facials ($1880 to $3200), and 30 minute body scrubs, body conditioners, and calming baths ($880).  Manicures and pedicures are also available for $700.

The excellent people at Banyan Tree Spa let me have a look at the different treatment rooms and they are all superb, each equipped with steam, shower and bathtub.  6 rooms are designated as Deluxe Rooms and another 13 as Royal Rooms.

Banyan Tree Spa is located on the 2nd floor and keeps hours from 10:00 am to 11:00 pm daily.

JW MARRIOTT HOTEL

Asia’s largest Marriott has 1,015 rooms and suites, making it the second biggest hotel at Galaxy.

It’s also the easiest place to get a room, excluding the budget Andaz, of course.  Unlike the others, I can actually make a chart for this one!

THE RITZ-CARLTON MACAU

The Ritz-Carlton is my favourite hotel in town and it’s not particularly close.  Whenever I’m at Galaxy, I inevitably make up some reason to head up to their lobby and bar, just so I can be a part of it all.

Everything about the Ritz-Carlton is a different world – a splendid world, and a beautiful one at that.

I stayed at the Ritz for a couple of nights during the Lusofonia Festival.  For information on how it went along with a ton of pics, please click the link here: Ritz-Carlton Macau

As of July 2025, the only thing available is a Carlton Suite for $7346 (Sunday to Thursday), $8956 (Friday), and $9416 (Saturday).

The rate for this room before used to be around $4000!

I really need to start robbing banks or something.

Ritz-Carlton Spa

In somewhat of a shocker, Ritz guests can use the facilities in the Ritz-Carlton Spa free of charge.  Almost every hotel in Macau charges guests for this privilege, something I find completely ridiculous.  If you’re a non-guest, the door pass is $570.

Treatments are expectedly pricy as well, easily among the highest in Macau.  Weekend rates are about $100 or $200 more than on weekdays, which are the prices I’ve used below.

90 to 120 minute Signature Treatments run between $2650 and $3200, while 60 or 90 minute facials are $1580 to $3000 and various body treatments between $1580 and $2400.  60 minute massage is $1450 while 90 minutes costs $1850 to $2050.

There’s also a Private Couples suite that you and your partner can share as you do your treatments together.  Use of the room starts from one hour and costs $1000 on weekdays and $1500 on weekends.

The Ritz-Carlton Spa is located on the 3rd floor of both the Ritz and Marriott and keeps hours daily from 10:00 pm to 11:00 pm.

ANDAZ MACAU

Attached to the convention centre, the Andaz is Galaxy Macau’s meetings/conference/events hotel, and as such, keeps rooms fairly basic and rates low.  Outside of the lacklustre Broadway Macau, they currently boast the lowest rates in Cotai, and I’d give it serious consideration if I were you.

The sharp lobby goes well and above budget status, displaying a fine collection of wiry art pieces telling the story of Macau’s rich colonial past.

For only $1150 a night, with access to the Grand Resort Deck, give it a hard look if you want to stay in Cotai.

Rates are in Macau Mops and include all tax and service charges.

RAFFLES HOTEL

One of the world’s most iconic hotels, the Singapore Raffles was declared a national monument in 1987.  Quite what that means for this Macau offshoot I don’t know, but the website pictures certainly look up to that standard.  Composed of 450 suites that range in size from 78 to 228 square meters, they flaunt fireplaces, staircases, heated pools and gardens, along with VIP Executives on call 24 hours a day.

As of July 2025, the only thing I see available is a 2 Bedroom Deluxe Suite, which runs $17,480 Monday to Thursday.

Good luck with that!  It’d be cheaper to fly to Singapore and stay in the real Raffles!!

CAPELLA HOTEL

Capella had their soft launch in early May 2025.  Composed of only villas and suites that draw inspiration from the jungle and Macau’s lush hills (like WTF?), 1 bedroom suites are reputed to go for $28,600 mid week, after tax.

Sweet Lord!

It looks like free champagne might be on tap for those checking in.

GRAND RESORT DECK

The Grand Resort Deck is what separates Galaxy from all of its competitors and the main reason why I think it’s the best hotel on the Cotai Strip.

No other property in the city has a pool this large or good and the fact that non-guests can no longer pay money to get in and use it should give you even more incentive to stay there.

Occupying over 75,000 square meters, the Grand Resort Deck features a 4,000 square meter Wave Pool, a 500 ton white sand beach, the world’s longest Aquatic Adventure Ride, and Macau’s only Slide Mountain.  Surfing lessons are even available in the morning, since the Wave Pool can generate waves as high as 1.5 meters!

Aquatainment Island opened in 2026, a new 2,800-square-metre children’s water playground inside the Grand Resort Deck. Designed for toddlers through nine-year-olds, it features a water castle, tipping bucket, four small slides and more than 40 interactive water features, along with performances and hands-on educational activities.

Access is included for guests staying at Galaxy’s hotels. While Studio City remains the better choice for serious water slides, Aquatainment Island considerably strengthens Galaxy’s claim as one of Macau’s best resorts for families with younger children.

If you prefer a quieter, more relaxing experience, each of Galaxy’s eight hotels offer private pools that are accessible to guests staying in that particular hotel.  Guests at Hotel Okura get the short end of the stick here though, since their pool is very small and located indoors on the 29th floor.

Pool pictures from each hotel can be viewed in the Galaxy Macau Photobook

GALAXY MACAU GYMS

Gym and spa facilities at Galaxy are more of less interchangeable no matter which hotel you’re staying at.  All of the gyms are large and modern while sauna, steam and jacuzzi are readily available as well.  Keep in mind that Hotel Okura’s fitness centre only utilizes a Kinesis wall, with next to no traditional heavy lifting equipment.

GALAXY MACAU DINING

Galaxy’s dining options are second to none in Cotai, with perhaps only Grand Lisboa Palace and Wynn Palace offering any resistance.  Highlights include Lai Heen, the Ritz Carlton Cafe, and Urban Kitchen, the best buffet in Macau.

8.5 Otto e Mezzo Bombana – The highly acclaimed “Best Italian Chef in Asia”, Mr Umberto Bombana, has his first restaurant in Macau, one that’s been awarded one Michelin star for 7 straight years now.  His restaurant in Hong Kong continues to be the only 3 star Italian restaurant outside of Italy, and I can’t wait to check that one out.

As for his Macau outlet, lunch sets run $680 (2 courses), $780 (3 courses), and $880 (4 courses), with extra wine available for $280 to $580.

At night, there are two 5 course sets on offer, running $2680 and $3280 respectively.  For wine, add an additional $1180.

In terms of a la carte, there’s appetizers and soup ($580 to $780), fresh made pasta and risotto ($580 to $880), and seafood and meat mains ($880 to $980).

For a review of my disappointing dinner there, please click here: Otto Bombana

Otto keeps hours from 6:00 pm to 10:30 pm at night.  It also opens for lunch from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm, Thursday to Saturday.  To find it, head to shop 1031 on the first floor of the retail Promenade.

Lai Heen – Lai Heen is a restaurant fit for the Ritz.  Immaculately decorated and supremely adorned, it’s the very definition of luxurious Cantonese dining.

Prices are just about what you’d expect, with appetizers $88 to $188, soups $168 to $858, vegetables $108 to $288, and rice and noodles $168 to $488.  Barbecue favorites run $158 to $738, while bird’s nest is $368 to $788, and dried seafood $328 to $9688.  That $9688 dish, by the way, is for 100 grams of braised amidori abalone.  The rest of the menu is composed of seafood ($258 to $1388), meat ($238 to $688), and poultry ($298 to $308).

Dim sum takes over at lunch, with most selections a pricey $78 to $188.

In a big shock, I don’t see any sets on offer currently in August 2025.  Before they usedto have an 8 course set for $2188, with an additional $788 for wine.

For a review of my dinner there, please click here: Lai Heen

Lai Heen is located on the 51st floor of the Ritz and keeps hours from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm in the afternoon and from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm at night.  On weekends it opens 30 minutes earlier at 11:30 am.

The Ritz-Carlton Cafe – Gorgeous looking French style cafe serves a la carte twice a day as well as a buffet on Sunday afternoons.

Not overly expensive for being such a beautiful venue, appetizers run $148 to $228, while sandwiches are $158 to $198, and soup $88 to $158.  As for mains, the Cafe serves fish and seafood ($198 to $488), steaks ($568 to $998), and other meat favourites ($238 to $608).  10 grams of caviar goes for $588 while 30 grams is $1088, and individual oysters $48 to $98.  Seafood platters are either $688 or $1368.

A 2 course set at lunch runs $198 for 2 courses and $398 for 3.

On the weekend, “Surf and Turf” nights take over, composed of a steak and seafood of your choice, starting from $658.

On Sundays from 11:00 am to 2:30 pm, there’s an excellent Sunday Brunch buffet, which runs $468 per adult, and includes free flow coffee, juice and tea.  For $698, you can get free flow red, white, and sparkling wine, while champagne is included in the $788 and $1098 options.  Children aged 6 to 11 eat for just $328.

A definite crowd pleaser, I’ve tried it twice and both times were excellent.  For a review, please follow the link here: Ritz-Carlton Cafe.

The Ritz-Carlton Cafe is located on the ground floor of the Ritz-Carlton.  Hours are from 7:00 am to 10:30 pm daily.

Sushi Kissho Miyakawa – The menu changes almost daily at Sushi Kissho Miyakawa, but expect it to be around $3000 for a 5 course set.

The restaurant seats only 10, and there will be nothing else to choose besides that.

Sushi Kissho Miyakawa received one Michelin star in the 2025 guide.

Located on the 2nd floor of Raffles, hours are from 6:00 pm to 10:30 pm, Thursday to Tuesday.

Teppanyaki Shou – Another Japanese joint with very limited options, Teppanyaki Shou offers a 4 course Omakase set for $888, available only on weekends at lunch.

At night, there are only two choices: two 4 course Omakase sets for $1988 and $2888, respectively.

Teppanyaki Shou keeps hours from 6:00 pm to 10:30 pm, Tuesday to Sunday.  It also opens from 12:00 to 2:30 pm on weekends.

Urban Kitchen – Macau’s best buffet restaurant is sometimes booked up one month in advance.  Serving contemporary fare with a heavy emphasis on seafood and premium meat dishes, Urban Kitchen is open from 7:00 am to 10:30 am, 12:00 pm to 2:30 pm and 6:00 pm to 9:30 pm.  Prices are as follows:

Prices are exclusive of 10% service charge.

If it’s your birthday just let them know and you can eat for free!  (The catch being that you need to bring a friend with you who is paying full price for their buffet).

For a review of my excellent dinner there, please follow the link: Urban Kitchen

Tastes of Asia Food Court – The Tastes of Asia Food Court features Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese and Singaporean cuisine, among others.  Most of the small fast food fare is inexpensive, with many selections $78 to $148.

GALAXY MACAU BARS 

In an absolutely HUGE shocker, the Macallan Whisky Bar and Lounge ceased operations in July 2025. There are still plenty of places to drink, though, and Galaxy continues to have the best collection of bars in Cotai. Seriously, it isn’t even close. Most competing resorts are fortunate to have one bar with any life in it, while Galaxy now has three: the Ritz-Carlton Bar and Lounge, Long Bar and Pony & Plume.

The Ritz-Carlton Bar and Lounge – Upscale bar used to offer a lot more of specials, live music and things on the go prior to Covid.  There’s less happening now but expect them to ratchet it back up to previous levels soon.

Starting with the specials, the Ritz Carlton Hour happens everyday from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm, for $258 per person, with select free flow cocktails, wine, spirits and mixers are on offer.  That can be paired with a food set for $298, composed of 3 different snacks.

Live entertainment happens every night of the week, except Mondays, starting at 9:00 pm and ending at 11:30 pm.

As for the drink menu, they offer cocktails for $128, while glasses of wine range from $98 to $298 and most full bottles $278 to $1350.  Most hard stuff is between $100 and $200, while beers are $68 to $88.

Located on the 51st floor, hours daily are from 2:30 pm to 1:00 am.

Long Bar – New bar at the Raffles is a little hard to find, because they want to intentionally keep it hidden, like a 1920’s speakeasy.  Specializing in gin, most glasses of it are between $88 and $238, while cocktails run $138 to $188, and whisky $108 to $298.  There are only two beer options on the menu, each of which cost $88, while most hard stuff is $78 to $158.

The snacks are simply outstanding, rising way above normal bar quality, and include skewers, wings, octopus, escargot and prawns.  Priced between $88 and $158, be forewarned that the serving sizes are extremely tiny.

A live DJ spins classic rock songs from the 70s and 80s, which didn’t do much for me at first.  I thought, I grew up on the Boss and Billy Joel, why go out and listen to them in Macau?  But vinyl truly sounds different, and since the DJ happily takes requests, you can sit there listening to four or five of your favourite songs in a row.  With that sound system and the atmosphere in the room, it just feels uncommonly good. Singing along is definitely allowed, and for that, I sincerely apologize!

Hours are from 6:00 pm to 1:00 am, Monday to Saturday.

Pony & Plume – Located inside Capella, Pony & Plume is Galaxy’s newest high-end bar and home to more than 650 whiskies, organized into eight different flavour profiles. The name refers to the “pony,” a precise measure of liquor, and the “plume” of aromatic smoke used in some of the cocktails, snacks and other bar experiences.

The cocktail list draws heavily on Macau history. The A-Ma-Gau Fashioned combines Japanese whisky with hojicha, coffee, black honey and apricot, while the Islay Libre uses Scotch, rum, spiced cola and palo santo to evoke the city’s days as a trading port. It has already been named one of Tatler’s 20 best bars in Macau and picked up local awards for Best New Bar and Best Design.

The drinks and enormous whisky collection are reasons enough to visit, but the live Latin band is what turns Pony & Plume into a proper night out. If you’re into Latin music, it’s an absolute must.

Pony & Plume opens from 7:00 pm to 2:00 am Monday to Thursday and from 7:00 pm to 3:00 am on Friday and Saturday. It is closed on Sundays.

Andaz Bar – Andaz Bar specialises in Macau-inspired cocktails, locally brewed craft beer and upscale snacks. It’s more of a comfortable hotel drinking spot than a serious nightlife destination, but the late-night happy hour is worth knowing about: selected drinks are half price on the second glass from 9:30 pm to 11:30 pm every night.

Andaz Bar opens from 11:00 am to midnight Sunday through Thursday and from 11:00 am to 1:00 am on Friday and Saturday.

GALAXY MACAU ENTERTAINMENT

Galaxy is starting to rival their neighbours on the Cotai Strip in the entertainment department.

Galaxy Kidz Edutainment Centre – Galaxy Kidz is similar to Kids Club, except it’s totally free for hotel guests.  Led by a dedicated team of professional counsellors, they organize different workshops throughout the day such as Paper Crafts, Twisting Fun, Magical Marker, Mosaic Art and Hands for DIY.

There’s also a small cinema, science lab, arcade games, interactive story telling, and mini kitchen where budding chefs hone their culinary skills.

Guests with little ones are also given a Treasure Hunt to complete at check-in in order to receive a special prize.

Hours at the Edutainment Centre are from 10:00 am to 6:45 pm.

Love Between Fairy and Devil VR Experience – Based on the popular Chinese fantasy series, this hour-long experience combines escape-room puzzles, live performers and around 35 minutes of VR. Wind, temperature changes, movement and simulated drops make it substantially more ambitious than simply putting on a headset and staring at computer graphics.

Tickets cost $268, with discounted admission available to Galaxy hotel guests and members.

Kids Club – Located on the 3rd floor of the Marriott, children aged 2 to 12 should get a kick out of Kids Club.  There’s a bungee castle, climbing tree, ball pit and video arcade, not to mention plenty of puzzles and toys.

Rates for 1 Adult and 1 Child are $180 for 3 hours, with each extra hour $70.  If an extra adult wants to join in the fun, it only costs $70.

Opening hours are from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm daily.

GalaxyArt – Located on the first floor of Galaxy Promenade, GalaxyArt is a permanent exhibition space showcasing everything from paintings and photography to large-scale installations and immersive art. The exhibitions change throughout the year and vary in quality, but admission is free and the better ones are easily worth 20 or 30 minutes. It opens daily from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm

UA Galaxy Cinemas –  General admission tickets at Galaxy’s movie theatre go for $90 (2D), $140 (3D), and $280 (Director’s Club).  If you’re wondering why the Director Club costs so much, it’s because they offer premium dining, a lounge with wait staff, and self adjustable reclining sofa seats.

Foot Hub – There’s a small massage joint one floor down from the Galaxy cinema and Tastes of Asia food court.

40 to 70 minute foot massage runs $388 to $638, while traditional Chinese massage costs $788 or $888 (60 minutes) and $988 (90 minutes).  There is also shorter 30 minute massage available for just $358.

Manicure and pedicure services are between $438 and $788, while 70 minute ear clearing is a cool $438.

Hours are from 11:00 am to 11:00 pm daily.

GALAXY MACAU SHOPPING

With over 200 high end fashion boutiques and luxury outlets, the Galaxy’s shopping quarter is second in area and size only to the Venetian Macao.

THE LAST WORD

With Phase 2, I think Galaxy not only closed the gap on the Venetian and the City of Dreams but also surpassed them. The Ritz Carlton remains one of the top luxury hotels in town, while the Grand Resort Deck is another amazing piece of work, unmatched and unrivalled by anything else in the city.

Perhaps Galaxy lags a little in the entertainment department, but the Broadway Theater is next door and let’s face it, so are the Venetian, City of Dreams and Studio City too, so it’s not like you have to cross town to see the best shows that Macau has to offer.  Galaxy has definitely set the bar very high and it’ll be interesting to see if the slew of monster resorts in the works can match them.

In terms of the casino, serious gamers may want to give it strong consideration just for the Player Card alone.  The membership benefits rank as Macau’s best and there are always a lot of good promotions on the go, with information easily accessible and kept up to date on the GEG website.  It’s just a shame they got rid of the stage on the main floor though.  The talent on display there used to match and possibly even exceed the Crazy Paris Show at the Grand Lisboa, which was no small feat.

LOCATION

Galaxy Macau is situated between the Venetian and another Galaxy hotel, Broadway Macau.
