Macau bets on healthcare tourism with luxury resort hospital as new magnet for Asia’s medical travelers
Macau, long celebrated as the world’s gambling capital, is pivoting toward a new kind of attraction: healthcare. In a bold move that blends high-end hospitality with medical services, the city has opened what is being described as a resort hospital inside the Studio City integrated resort. The facility, branded as a luxury medical destination, offers premium diagnostic tests, elective procedures, wellness programs, and a privacy-conscious experience aimed at affluent travelers from across the region. The opening signals more than a novelty; it points to a growing trend in Asia where tourism destinations seek to diversify revenue by pairing leisure with health services.
