An independent magazine for the Asia-Pacific casino resort

Resortstays by Kaions covers a small, deliberate set of integrated resorts across Asia-Pacific — places where a luxury hotel and a major casino share one roof. We focus on five: Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore, Galaxy Macau and Studio City in Macau, Okada Manila in the Philippines and Crown Sydney in Australia.

Our reviews take the casino seriously. We describe baccarat halls and dice tables, table limits and premium salons, the regulators that license each floor, the entry ages, identification and levies that apply, and the exclusion schemes available to anyone who needs them. We also review the hotel with equal care, and we score the two separately.

What we do not do

• We do not sell rooms, take bookings or accept wagers.
• We do not link to casino operators, betting sites or affiliates.
• We do not publish bonuses, offers, betting systems or claims about how to win.
• We do not accept payment, hospitality or gaming credit for coverage.

Who we write for

Adults who are planning a stay at one of these resorts, or who are simply curious about how the region’s great casinos work. Our content is intended for readers aged 18 and over, and for 21 and over where local law requires.
