This is Macau's biggest development, twice as big as its Las Vegas sister property and further distinguished as being the second-largest building in the world. The Venice-themed resort, complete with replicas of famous landmarks like St. Mark's and indoor canals navigated by singing gondoliers, is such a tourist draw (more than 66,000 people pass through its doors daily) its lobby resembles Hong Kong Central Station during rush hour; be sure to pick up a map at the concierge, because you're going to need it. Although its Renaissance-style rooms are billed as suites, most are actually 70-sq.-m. (753-sq.-ft.) split-levels with all the amenities you'd expect and then some, including canopied beds and bathrooms with sit-down vanities, two sinks, and separate tub and shower areas. In addition to the world's largest casino, the property boasts 300-plus specialty shops, a dizzying array of dining options (including a 1,000-seat food court), a 15,000-seat arena with big-name acts, and a Cirque du Soleil theater. Entertainment for kids ranges from an 18-hole minigolf course and children's activity center complete with climbing structures and video games to four outdoor pools, including a wave pool and wading pools. Clearly, this is a destination in itself; some guests check in and go nowhere else.
