Tips

Grand Prix Friday, Before Friends Arrive

Macau Grand Prix weekend: your friends arrive Saturday, you cross on Friday and get to Victoria Sauna first. 5/F L'Arc Macau, open 24 hours.

The bath area at Victoria Sauna: a lit square plunge pool in front, purple poolside daybeds beside it, and a low table with candles, orchids and rolled towels

Say the plan is a Grand Prix weekend in Macau with your friends, but they cannot get over until Saturday, so you cross from Hong Kong on Friday on your own. That gives you a spare night with nobody to wait for and nobody to fit in with. In any group, someone has to try a place first, so that by Saturday there is a name to recommend. This weekend, Victoria Sauna can be the place you try first.

The one who arrives on Friday

Friday 20 November is the second day of the 73rd Macau Grand Prix, with the finals on the 21st and 22nd. Victoria Sauna is on the fifth floor of L’Arc Macau, 278 Avenida 24 de Junho. Since 29 August 2026 it has been open again with a new owner and a new management team, a new way of operating, and more new things on the way. There is a bath, a sauna room and a lounge, there is food on the premises, and the whole venue is open around the clock.

The manager’s introductions, then the hour

Coming alone keeps the choosing simple. Victoria Sauna has no runway show and no line-up routine: you name the series you want to try, the manager brings out the therapists who are working, you take your time, and when you have decided, you point her out to the manager. Therapists work from 1 p.m. until 6 a.m. Then comes an hour in a private room, one to one, and once the door closes it goes the way you want it. Tell her how you would like the hour to go and leave the rest to her. It is the first stretch of the weekend that is entirely yours, and guests who have been to Victoria speak well of it.

Staying until Saturday morning

Once the hour is over, a second masseuse can do a back scrub or a leg massage while you sit back on a lounge recliner, and you decide which two once you are on it. If you would rather not go back out on Friday night, guests can stay up to 15 hours once they have paid for a service, and there is an overnight rest area. Full details are shared when you book.

On price: as of October 2026, services at Victoria Sauna range from MOP 1,198 to 7,198, plus a 10% service charge. The grouped prices are on our price page. Prices follow the venue’s actual menu and may vary by service, duration and time of day, with the current menu confirmed when you book.

My friends only arrive on Saturday. Can we all come back together?

Yes. Give us both dates and the number of people for each in one message, and we will arrange your Friday on your own and the Saturday with everyone as two separate visits.

Leave this Friday to us

If you book through us, a free private car will be waiting for you at the ferry terminal or the border crossing when you come over from Hong Kong, or will collect you from your hotel anywhere in Macau, and the ride back is arranged in advance; our Hong Kong to Macau page has the details. Two add-ons cost nothing on bookings made through this site, you pick them on the recliner, and asking us questions beforehand is free. Just tell us the day (Friday 20 November), how many are coming, where in Macau you are staying and which series you have in mind, through the contact page, and we will handle what follows. When your friends cross over on Saturday, the first one of you to have been to Victoria Sauna this weekend will be you.
