    5 stars!! ⭐️

    My family and I just returned from a 10-day stay at Dreams Macao Beach, and we can’t say enough good things about this resort! The grounds of the resort are beautifully maintained, with everything so well-kept and spotless. The views of the ocean were breathtaking, and we were lucky to swim in the water almost every day. Our kids, who are nine and six, had a blast playing in the waves, though we always made sure to be close, as the waves could get pretty intense at times. We opted for the Preferred Club, and it was absolutely worth it—the added perks made our stay even more enjoyable. We were also really impressed by the housekeeping services—our room was cleaned every day, our mini-fridge was always stocked, and we never ran out of water. The food was great, with plenty of variety, but what really made a difference was the friendliness of the staff. Everyone we encountered was so helpful and welcoming. A special thank you to our butler, Jansel who kept us informed about daily activities, was always responsive to our questions, and even arranged a birthday cake for our son at one of the restaurants. A big shoutout to the staff at the Preferred Beach area and Preferred Pool (Maria, Anderson, Jesus (Ventura), where we spent most of our time—they were amazing! And of course, La Negra from the entertainment team, who made sure our kids were always having fun. We would definitely come back!

    Another Wonderful Week in Paradise

    This was our 3rd time here and we loved every second of it. The staff is phenomenal. The grounds are immaculate. There’s always something to do, even if it’s sitting on the balcony watching the moon. The food is good, the entertainment is second to none, and the activities are exciting. Go Preferred and thank me later. It’s worth it for the little perks. You won’t regret the visit here.

    Great overall experience.

    The staff made us feel like we were close welcome family members. Everywhere we went they went out of their way to help. The restaurants were great, the pools were great, and the folks there just wanted to make your stay the best that you ever had.
