This Four Seasons is designed in a Portuguese-Chinese hybrid style, an expression of Macau’s unique history.
“Indo-Portuguese furniture and original Chinese paintings plus two grand staircases in the lobby evoke the European mansions of old Macau, while the efficient English-speaking staff are among Macau’s best.”
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Directly linked to The Plaza Macao and upscale Cotai shopping, the resort sits steps from The Venetian and The Londoner.
The rooms
Chinese silks and warm gold tones frame marble double-vanity bathrooms, while select residential suites add private plunge pools and gyms.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Terracotta-tiled cabanas surround the lagoon pool, set alongside a heated lap pool and shallow wading areas.
The gym and spa
Fourteen private treatment suites offer Eastern and Western therapies alongside vitality pools, saunas, and steam rooms.
At the table
Michelin-starred Zi Yat Heen serves handcrafted dim sum, and The Study mixes evening cocktails beneath blue slatted ceilings.
Instead of flashing lights, casino noise and gold-plated everything, you’ll find a light, airy, sprawling hotel whose décor is a sophisticated blend of Portuguese old-world refinement dotted with Asian antiques
How it began
Opened in 2008 as a tranquil non-gaming retreat, the property later expanded with a forty-story all-suite residential tower.
