Maybe it is far from some destination.
And the frequency of the suttle bus is not so good, abour thirty minutes.

-Mezzaluna in the mandarin and Fernandos at Hac Sa are as excellent as ever.
-The new tower is worth a trip up but take a spare pair of underpants.
-The foot massages in the little reflexology shops are good value and relaxing.
-People in Macau are generally more relaxed and friendly than hong kongers. A great place to drift around.
-The protestant cemetery is interesting.

I enjoyed the interesting mix of Chinese and Portuguese culture and architecture. July is perhaps not an ideal time to visit Macau due to the intense heat and high humidity.
Recommended restaurants:
Flamingo's: Excellent Portuguese Resturant at the Hyatt in Taipa
Hotel Lisboa: Dim sum restaurant and Cantonese restaurant on second floor.
Recommended Attraction: Taipa house museum.

The Portuguese population of Macau has supposedly decreased by 80% since its handover to China in 1999, which means the local Portuguese restaurant scene is somewhat diminished. One gem that remains is "A Petisquera" in Taipa (not far from the Dumbo restaurant). Truly superb cooking (octopus salad, baby sardines, fresh home made cheese, codfish cakes, clams) accompanied by an excellent and very reasonable wine selection. The two owners (Eusebio and Jose) are very gracious.
The sauna for women at the Lisboa was highly luxurious and pampering of my partner, unusual for Asia where it's generally the men's side that has all the whirlpools, steamrooms and lounge comforts.

The Hac Sa beach was not particularly appealing due to a black sludge on the sand. It was pleasant enough to walk on to go to Fernando's Restaurant but I made a point of keeping clear of the water and the sludge. Macau made for an interesting walking tour if you have got the energy to climb the hills to get to the best view points.

Worth going to the Macau tower, Go-karting and of course Fernando's. Also try the Allorcha restaurant, near the Maritime Museum.

Very different feel to HK which is a plus for those HK residents a bit jaded by the HK lifestyle. The furniture shops are interesting and reasonable value.
