Viva Las Vegas!
See All Lists
1. The Venetian
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 414-1000
I've got nothing but fives stars for the Venetian. I think I love you! My first trip (some years back) ever to Vegas, we stayed at the Venetian. It rocked and we had such a good time. The suites and the bathroom were a great size. The bed was very…More »
2. Canyon Ranch SpaClub
In 2003, I received my first massage ever and it was at Canyon Ranch. It was magical and to this day, whenever I'm in the area, I try and get a massage from this spa. They have everything a eucalyptus steam room, whirlpool, and sauna. Huge showers…More »
3. Las Vegas Monorail Co
Las Vegas, NV 89169
(702) 699-8200
Category:
Public Transportation
Neighbourhood: Eastside
I feel like the monorail in Vegas is the best kept secret for people in the know in Vegas. Yes, newbies are the ones paying $30 in taxis to go down the strip one way. (Heaven forbid anyone actually walk off their buffet meals!) For the money they…More »
4. Gold & Silver Pawn Shop
I like to buy charms from places I visit to add to my charm bracelet. Of course, I've seen Pawn Stars and we were pretty close to them. The parking lot was busy and the shop was too. They had some neat things, as far as swords etc, but I'm not a…More »
5. Tropicana Las Vegas
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(800) 462-8767
The Tropicana was renovated and the hotel and casino looked great! The hotel also smells like Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen. The lotion in the bathroom also smells like the beach. They did an excellent job with the ventilation too. I'd recommend this…More »
6. McCarran International Airport
Las Vegas, NV 89119
(702) 261-5211
Category:
Airports
Neighbourhood: Southeast
McCarran is probably 3 3/4 stars. We usually arrive late and leave late too. Having said that, the airport isn't really dirty but I'm sure the cleaning crew has already cleaned from the mad rush of unlucky broke people flying home. What I really…More »
7. McCarran Rent-a-Car Center
The drive is too long to return cars. Once we got there, the return process was easy and there was a bus waiting to take us to the airport. It wasn't bad but I've had better and shorter rental car returns.
8. MGM Grand
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(877) 880-0880
Categories:
Hotels,
Restaurants,
Casinos
Neighbourhood: The Strip
MGM is too big and it is always crowded. Having said that, they do have a lot of restaurants inside and some kitties to look at near the entrance. I don't like how dark it is either. The monorail station is inside MGM and of course, we had to walk…More »
9. CVS/pharmacy
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 262-9028
Categories:
Drugstores,
Doctors
Neighbourhood: The Strip
Meets CVS standards and has Minute Clinic. Five stars for being a 24 hour CVS!
10. The Buffet At Bellagio
Sure there are a lot of buffets in Vegas. What do you want? Quality or quantity? If you choose the latter, than the Bellagio is for you! Seriously, they have mastered everything. The prime rib was phenomenal and the pizzas were gourmet. The…More »
11. Lawry's The Prime Rib
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 893-2223
Category:
Steakhouses
Neighbourhood: Eastside
If you love prime rib, than Lawry's is for you! They rock, not only was the food delicious but the service was stellar too. I've been to this location before, matter of fact, I've also been to the one in Chicago and they are all the same.…More »
12. Walgreens
Las Vegas, NV 89178
(702) 260-0135
Categories:
Drugstores,
Cosmetics & Beauty Supply,
Convenience Stores
Neighbourhood: Southwest
We stopped here for water and snacks. They were selling a gallon of water for .99! The employees were friendly and we were in and out in no time. The cashier was trying to sell us M&Ms. It tickled me to see that even Walgreens was trying to up…More »
13. Mcdonald's
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 732-3200
Category:
Fast Food
Neighbourhood: The Strip
This McDonald's is large and has more of a trendy vibe. The employees were friendly and their coffee and the coffee prices were good. I just wish McDonald's would offer half and half for their lattes.
Also, their salads were pretty good too.…More »
14. Planet Hollywood Spa by Mandara
Las Vegas, NV 89109
Mandara was really about a 3 3/4 stars spa but they really fumbled the ball at the end. I got a fantastic deal from http://travelzoo.com for a massage, body scrub, and a scalp treatment for under $100. I've never been to Mandara Spa but thought I'd…More »
15. Cafe Gelato
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 693-7111
Categories:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt,
Desserts
Neighbourhood: The Strip
The prices were a bit high but the small cup was pretty big. The fruit gelato tasted the best. The other flavors made me thirsty. The employee was helpful and didn't mind giving me samples.
When you need a break from gambling, swing by Cafe…More »
16. Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area
Las Vegas, NV 89161
(702) 515-5350
Categories:
Parks,
Hiking,
Landmarks & Historical Buildings
Red Rock Canyon is a must see when you are in the area. It is beautiful and peaceful. November was the perfect time to visit, we've been during the summer too when it is really hot! All that fresh air is great for getting rid of all the smoke on…More »
17. Dona Maria Tamales Restaurant
We had lunch here and it was good. I'm by no means a Mexican aficionado. The salsa had a little bit of a kick to it that we liked. I ordered the verde burrito and it was pretty big. The place wasn't busy, so we were in and out in no time.
18. Circle K Stores Inc
Las Vegas, NV 89119
(702) 740-7980
Category:
Drugstores
Neighbourhood: University
We purchased gas here and some bottled water. The cashier inside was friendly. "Would you like anything else sweetheart?" I was really creeped out by the young man with a hoodie over his face asking for change.
19. Hoover Dam
Hoover Dam is amazing! Really, every American should take a tour of this fine accomplishment of the blood, sweat, and tears of Americans. Not only did they build it during a difficult time for America, it was finished early and under budget!…More »
20. Bellagio
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 693-7111
The Bellagio is beautiful and one of my favorite casinos on the strip! Everything about it is wonderful, the decor and the smell. If you are there during the summertime, the lobby smells wonderful because of the flower display. During the fall,…More »
21. Encore Las Vegas
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 770-7000
My review is only for casino and based on what I saw, I'd love to be a guest of the hotel next time. I love the red accents in the casino and the slightly dark feel to the place. The Encore feels almost like a night club. There is something sexy…More »
22. Wynn Las Vegas
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 770-7000
The Wynn is absolutely beautiful! The decor reminds me of a cross between the Venetian and the Bellagio. The decor is very feminine and I loved it! I was checking my phone and almost walked into the maintenance guy cleaning the floors. He smiled…More »
23. ZoozaCrackers Deli
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 770-3463
Categories:
Burgers,
Sandwiches,
Delis
Neighbourhood: The Strip
ZoozaCrackers is inside the Wynn. The lady working was so sweet! Really, I wanted to just hang out with her and all I did was buy coffee. Two employees inside the Wynn were very nice to me within an hour. What is Mr. Wynn feeding them? Their…More »
24. The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
Coffee was too expensive! Almost $4 for a plain coffee. I'll go back to the golden arches.
25. Fountains of Bellagio
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(888) 987-6667
Categories:
Performing Arts,
Landmarks & Historical Buildings
Neighbourhood: The Strip
I love the Bellagio so of course, I love their fountains! It is a must see while in Vegas and it is free!
26. Cafe' Santa Lucia
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 414-3620
Neighbourhood: The Strip
Cafe Santa Lucia is in the semi food court in the Venetian. It is small but has a nice selection of European pastries and illy coffee. I needed some coffee because the extra oxygen in the casino wasn't enough for me. The coffee was smooth and gave…More »
27. Graceland Wedding Chapel
Las Vegas, NV 89101
(702) 382-0091
Categories:
Wedding Planning,
Venues & Event Spaces
Neighbourhood: Downtown
I had a family member get married here and honestly, I wasn't sure what to expect. We were told to get there 15 minutes ahead of time and no one could be late...the show will go on without you. We all arrived early and took pictures in the little…More »
28. Krispy Kreme Doughnuts
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 733-9944
Neighbourhood: The Strip
The best thing about Circus Circus is that they have a Krispy Kreme near the casino. Yes, the other casinos sell Krispy Kreme but have a small variety. This is actually a Krispy Kreme store and nothing else!
29. Grand Lux Cafe
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 414-3888
Categories:
American (New),
Desserts,
American (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: The Strip
I love Grand Lux Cafe and they are opened for 24 hours! There is nothing like taking a break from casino war and enjoying a nice slice of cheesecake at 2:00 AM. The prices are a little high but the portions are large. The hubs and I always split…More »
30. Cocolini's
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 732-8927
Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighbourhood: The Strip
Small selection of Krispy Cream Doughnuts and I mean small. Cocolini's is nestled in the little food court area in the Venetian. They serve coffee, gelato, and other pastries.
31. Caesars Palace
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(866) 227-5938
The casino was clean and felt smoke free! Sign up for the Players card and get $5 free in slots. The lady working at the Players card station was really bubbly. I wanted to invite her to dinner with us. Last time I was here the casino was under…More »
