I second looking4c4c's comment -- no unsafe parts of Macau to walk in at any time of the day or night streets, alleys, harborfronts, underpasses, etc. -- all have seemed perfectly safe to me, even at 3am on a Sat/Sun morning. It's one of the nice things about Macau (HK very safe too, of course).
So it's all about the distance and weather. Taxis are cheap. One of the reasons I don't stay in Cotai/Taipa is that there always seems to be a wait for a taxi at the big hotels. Whereas in the older part of Macau, not only are taxis very plentiful, but you often don't need one because everything is so close. Still, nothing beats the opulence of a big Taipa hotel like the Venetian. Just not quite as convenient as something downtown like MGM or Rio. Grand Lisboa is fairly opulent, and downtown, but always seems expensive on agoda.com
