Head to Fabulous Las Vegas

While other destinations celebrate Pride this month, Vegas celebrates it 365 days a year! The city never stops showing its pride, providing visitors with a host of exceptional experiences, from luxury accommodations to delicious, gourmet eats. Before you pack your bags and book your plane ticket, learn why Vegas continues to be fabulous.

Luxury Accommodations

Las Vegas is not short of luxurious places to stay. Head to Wynn Las Vegas for plenty of amenities, including scenic gardens, a manmade mountain, and a three-acre lake. This resort also serves top-notch food and drinks, and houses retail stores that will make any shopper envious.

For 13 restaurants, a nightclub, several bars, and a 44,000-square-foot spa, look to The Cosmopolitan Las Vegas. It’s conveniently located right on the Las Vegas Strip!

Fan of chef Nobu Matsuhisa? Nobu Hotel Caesars Palace houses the world’s largest Nobu Restaurant and Lounge, as well as 181 stylishly designed guest rooms featuring contemporary and traditional icons from Japanese culture.

For a one-of-a-kind Vegas experience, Sky Villa Suites will satisfy anyone’s dream. Found on the 20th floor of the Tropicana Las Vegas, these rooms epitomize modern glamour, boasting Miami-vibes and a softly lit atmosphere. Of course, you can always head to the main floor for a sun and beach theme, bright rooms, and tropical décor.

Luxury Spas

Kick back and relax. ESPA at Vdara Hotel & Spa spotlights holistic health and well-being in a sanctuary-like environment. There are two levels, a salon and fitness center, and signature treatments using ingredients from herbs, fruits, vegetables, and essential oils.

Continue to unwind at Reliquary Spa at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. The 25,000-square-foot space is ideal for socializing as well as destressing. There are private cabana-type alcoves and plenty of lounge spaces; it’s the perfect mix of private areas and places to mingle.

Don’t forget to exercise indulgence at Ciel Spa at SLS Las Vegas. Treat yourself to a massage, herbal steam room, and a retail center with the best beauty products around.

Fine Dining

After all that relaxing, you’ll probably be hungry. Luckily Las Vegas has world renowned restaurants just paces away. Chow down at Aureole at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino where you can enjoy seasonal dishes like artisan dry-aged beef and fresh seafood. There’s also an extensive French and American wine list. No complaints there!

Craving a 15-course tasting menu? Of course you are. é by José Andrés at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas takes Spanish cuisine to whole new levels, with gourmet and experimental dishes that will blow your tastebuds away.

For a more intimate experience, go to Michael’s Gourmet Room at South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa where a 50-seat dining room serves some of the best, most accolade winning fare in the area. Joël Robuchon at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino has a complementary vibe, delivering traditional French food with a respect for fine ingredients and simplicity.

Still hungry? Guy Savoy at Caesars Palace boasts beautiful architecture alongside festive and fresh creations that will leave any diner wanting seconds. Perhaps hold your appetite for a killer steak at Hank's Fine Steaks at Green Valley Ranch Resort & Spa, one of the best meat and martini spots in town.

Luxury Activities

Now it’s time to work off all that grub! Splurge on a private helicopter tour of the desert city, a hot air balloon ride for spectacular views of the Las Vegas valley, or an open road cruise in a legendary car.

If you don’t want to be moving, however, you can enjoy live performances at The Smith Center, which is home to two resident companies: The Nevada Ballet Theatre and the Las Vegas Philharmonic. Also, consider controlling the Fountains of Bellagio (for a measly $250K!), or, for a more affordable option, attend a fireworks show at Drai’s Nightclub. What better way to show your Vegas pride than in an explosion of color?
