Best on-site diningThe Excellent Sauna
極品桑拿 · Macau Peninsula · #7 in our ranking
The one that feeds you properly — a real kitchen running from noon to the 4 AM close.
Most Macau saunas treat food as an afterthought; The Excellent treats it as a headline. The on-site kitchen runs from the noon opening straight through to the 4 AM close, which means an actual cooked meal at hours when everything else nearby is a convenience store. For a certain kind of long, structureless evening, that's worth more than another marble pool.
The themed rooms are better than the venue's three-star reputation suggests — the DJ booth, cinema, hospital ward and office sets are legitimately built out — and the recliner lounge does its job between rounds. Treat it as a dinner-plus-entertainment venue rather than a wet-area destination and the experience makes sense.
The three stars come from the ledger. The baths are the weakest in this guide, a 10% service charge lands on every bill, and the 4 AM close rules out overnight stays — this is not a venue to end the night in, only to spend it at. Come hungry, leave before close, and it fills a niche nothing else in this guide covers.
Why it works
- Kitchen runs all opening hours — rare hot food at 2 AM
- DJ, cinema, hospital and office themed rooms, properly built

How your night flows
Book a dinner slot
Come hungry — that's the whole strategy here. Message us on WhatsApp and book around a meal time; the kitchen runs from the noon opening straight through to the 4 AM close.
Ride to the glowing sign
The free private car (booked through us) drops you at the door; the lift opens onto the illuminated "The Excellent" sign over carved timber — old-school grand.
A quick soak
The blue-lit pool under the skylights is a pleasant warm-up — honest advice: treat the wet zone as a starter, not the main course. That's not what you came for.
Browse the lounge
Selection happens from a leather recliner while the lineup circulates — relaxed and browsable, no stage pressure. Groups can claim the purple VIP snug.
Pick a scene
The theme rooms punch above the price — the ambulance room is the house legend, and the DJ booth, cinema and mosaic waterbed rooms are properly built out, not wallpaper.
Eat like it's the point
Dinner in the gold-veined marble dining room, then a doze in the recliners, then maybe a second plate at 2 AM — hot food at hours when everything nearby is a convenience store.
Leave before close
The house shuts at 4 AM with no overnight stays, and a 10% service charge lands on the bill. Time your exit, and the free return car takes you home.
Don't forget — your VIP Extras from us
Booking through us gets you 1 complimentary VIP Extra — served by professional therapists. Pick from Back Rubbing, thigh massage, head massage, reflexology, manicure, pedicure, hand massage, and ear cleaning. Tell us your pick when you book.
And your free return ride is waiting
When you're done — after breakfast, right after your service, anytime — just text us. The same luxury vehicle takes you to your hotel, the airport, the ferry terminal, or anywhere in Macau. Same zero cost as the pickup.
