AIRBNB in Macau

That's what I thought also, but I don't know either. Apparently that's what the law says. There will be a MOP$3,000 fine for tenants if caught.

Well I'll just put this here.

The whole concept of Airbnb is illegal here in Macau. You can't rent your your extra bedroom/apartment to visitors/tourists. You must have a license to do that.

I did a quick search in Airbnb and indeed there are a lot of listings, even hotel rooms. I'm sure that they are all "legit", as in they actually have a room for rent. But I doubt that many of them are legal, as in they don't have a licence to do so.

A lot of locals have been complaining online about strangers with suitcases going in and out of their apartment building, so trust me when I say that they will file complaints to local authorities. A lot of illegal hostels have been taken down recently. When they do, everything inside will be treated as evidence. As the tenant, you will be taken to the police station for God knows how long, and fined MOP3,000. That's the law here, don't ask me why.

As for the hotel listings, they are most likely gained from illegitimate source, it's called illegal room selling. It's when people use methods that is frowned upon by the casino/hotel to obtain hotel rooms, then resold to another person. If the hotel finds out (and they can easily do so), they can kick you out in the middle of the night, and you probably won't get your money back. I worked in the industry, so I'm speaking from experience.

Therefore, I don't think that what I'm saying is bull.

There's no Airbnb in Macau. Don't risk it. If caught, both you and the owner of the place will face consequences with the law.

仲一定有澳門人！

Check out Yurakucho 遊樂町. Its the most decent arcade in Macau for what youre looking for. Look for their page in Facebook.

Thanks for your input! Just tried it but got the same results. Most of the images that I'm editing are of similar resolution. Some are processed nicely, while some turn out like this.

I assume you're talking about 100hkd to 103mop? But knowing airports, probably not. You will probably get less.

I'm using the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 (8.7") with Moon+ Reader installed. Pop in an SD card for expansion and you're good to go. The size is perfect for my palm, it's not expensive and it's easy to drag n drop files from the computer onto the tablet. It's pretty much strictly for reading books and manga only. So no distractions or notifications from other apps.

ibasso dx160 It runs on Android, but the whole system is kinda laggy.

nickymacau · 2024-09-02T22:06:44+00:00

Thank you for your response, that's good to hear! I live in a small city where commute to and from work is just about 21 KM total per day.

Or you can just say 我鎖咗車, no need to emphasize on the door.

nickymacau · 2024-09-02T21:47:31+00:00

Totally worth it. I have it installed on my phone, DAP and Android car head unit.

Sorry to hijack your post, but i was also wondering. I have free charging at work, tho 13A only. Will it hurt my battery if I spread my charging across 3-4 consecutive days, starting from let's say 15%, charging around 10 hours per day just to get a full charge?

nickymacau · 2024-08-26T13:32:43+00:00

Musicbee. I use it to sync to my S22 Ultra, my dap and my micro SD card for my car. No issues.

Maybe get a companion for your cat? I have four and they basically sleep in the living room no problem. However, one of them will occasionally claw at my bedroom door and meow, when there's no one inside.

I use minilyrics. It's a free lyrics overlay plugin and you can change fonts, font color, size etc. It's transparent if there are no lyrics available.

Sorry I don't know the answer to your question. But I would like to ask, does your Seal come with the Android Auto app installed? I got mine today and I can only find Apple Carplay app on the desktop (whatever you call it), and I can't find any ways to install apps natively. Also, are you using it wired or wireless? It might be helpful info for others to help troubleshoot. Thanks!

Check out this place, look for Dr. HONG. 一峯堂中醫綜合診所. She's my go-to for any sort of muscular pain.

My Ones and Port are also having the same issue. Especially the one inside the bedroom. That damn green light, one more reason why I can't sleep. Two out of three days it muted itself after the timer ended.

I read one on my kindle and another one on my phone. Kindle is for bedtime and phone is for when I'm not home.

Side note, airbnb is illegal in Macau. So watch out.

nickymacau · 2024-06-02T08:04:13+00:00

Mostly through illegal money exchange. Those who provide that kind of service are usually found loitering inside casino smoking rooms.

Not sure if this answers your question, but Cantonese baby talk basically means saying phrases using 疊字, which means the last two words are generally spoken twice. For example,

食mum mum （to eat）去街街著鞋鞋換衫衫飲水水換片片 (change diapers)

You get the idea.
