Including room rate, taxes and mandatory resort fees
What does ""We Paid"" mean?
Forbes Travel Guide performs independent, incognito inspections of all hotels we rate. This is what we paid when we stayed at this hotel.
Rates can vary widely by room type and season. "We Paid" is intended to give a general sense of price, but you might find considerably different rates for your trip.
When we book, we aim for the optimum season for the destination, but we avoid holidays and major public events, when prices are highest. We generally book a room at one category up from the most basic.
We take advantage of promotional rates, when possible. That means the rate you see above might have included other benefits, such as spa or meal credits.
We are the only independent, global rating system for luxury hotels, restaurants, spas and ocean cruise ships.
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.
Five-Star These properties deliver an outstanding experience and consistently offer a highly customized level of service.
Four-Star These are exceptional properties, offering high levels of service and quality of facility to match.
Recommended These are excellent properties with consistently good service and facilities.

Our Inspector's Highlights
Whether or not you’re a gambler, visiting the casino at Wynn Macau is a thrill. Stroll through the red-carpeted maze of baccarat tables, slot machines and VIP lounges with a tasty cup of hot tea in hand as you marvel at the casino culture in a city that rakes in five times more money than Las Vegas.
Five-Star Wynn Macau’s pool area is flush with gardens and palm trees and is heated year-round. Attendants deliver sunscreen on silver trays and heated towels are available if there’s a slight chill in the air.
The floor-to-ceiling windows spanning a full wall of every guest room offer prime views of sparkling Nam Van Lake and the glitzy skyline of the Macau strip.
Don’t get up—really—because everything you need is available bedside at the flip of a switch. Before drifting off to sleep, simply press a button to close the curtains on the bright lights of Macau, and press another to dim the lighting in your room.
Whatever request you can dream up, staff members will find a way to fulfill it, doing so in a thoughtful and genuine manner that makes you feel at home.
Things to Know
Crowds of people gather for Five-Star Wynn Macau’s flashy exhibitions including a nightly light and water symphony running every fifteen minutes at the hotel’s Performance Lake.
It’s best to check beforehand what the minimum bets are for your games of choice so you know how much cash to bring.
Unlike Vegas casinos that seek to loosen you up with alcohol, Macanese casinos do not serve adult beverages. Instead, servers come by with trolleys presenting hot tea in stylish glassware to keep you consistently caffeinated.
The Rooms
Choose between waking up to a vista of Nam Van Lake surrounded by Macau’s high rises or a lit-up panorama of Macau’s glitzy skyline in full; either way the view is enhanced by floor-to-ceiling windows spanning an entire wall.
Bedside remote controls allow you to simply press a button to close the curtains on the bright lights of Macau and to dim the lighting in your room before drifting off to sleep.
Sleep and relaxation are made easy by the centerpiece of your Five-Star guest room, a comfy cloud of a bed outfitted with 100 percent Egyptian cotton linens.
The Restaurants
The seasonal specialties menu at the contemporary Wing Lei features everything from double-boiled fish maw with seafood and bamboo piths in winter melon to a black truffle pudding.
Mizumi is an ode to Japanese cuisine. Enjoy fresh, seasonal ingredients flown in from Japan (like sea urchin from Hokkaido) and a sake list with more than 40 varieties at the counter or the main dining area.
Dim sum and congee, eggs and bacon, cured meats and pickled onions, fresh-squeezed tropical juices, freshly baked pastries…the list goes on and on. Café Esplanada’s breakfast buffet is a lavish spread.
Enjoy made-from-scratch pastas, fresh fish and hand-crafted pizzas at Wynn Macau’s Italian restaurant, Ristorante il Teatro, which happens to overlook Performance Lake, giving you prime views of the show as you dine.
