There's a new place to stay in Vega$:

The cost, $2.7 billion, makes the 2,716-room hotel-casino the most expensive Strip endeavor of its kind.

Wynn has again changed the look of the Las Vegas skyline with the resort's 50-story, curved tower covered in bronze glass.

The resort connects to the once-famous Desert Inn Country Club golf course, now completely redesigned by famed architect Tom Fazio and carrying an expected per round cost of $500.

Acclaimed director Franco Dragone will present a multimillion-dollar water-themed production show in a 2,087-seat theater-in-the-round setting, which includes a 1 million gallon performance pool that doubles as a stage. The property, which opens Thursday, contains the usual Las Vegas accompaniments:

.111,000 square feet of casino space that houses 137 table games, 1,960 slot machines, a race and sports book, a poker room, keno lounge and baccarat salon.

.2,359 standard guest rooms at 620 square feet; 270 parlor and salon suites; 45 executive suites; 36 one- and two-bedroom fairway villas and six 7,000-square-foot private entry villas.

.18 restaurants and bars including six fine-dining restaurants overseen by renowned celebrity chefs.

.76,000 square feet of retail offerings including an on-site Ferrari-Maserati dealership.

.223,000 square feet of convention and meeting space.

Holy Jeebus!

Not to mention the rumor that I had heard during my last visit to L.V. was that there was to be a "Men's Club" that was actually INSIDE the premises...

Dont know where to find out if that is true or not, but it sure does give a whole new meaning to the word "Room Service".... :D :eek:

aparently the whole point of that place is that you will never need to leave the property.

its not like all the other ones that are alot to llok by walking down the street. The views are inward out.

gentlemens club sweet but probably costs a pretty dime. :thumdown:

"Michael Jackson made the yet-to-be opened Mirage his personal playground. The entertainer hung out with illusionists Siegfried & Roy..."

Too bad there weren't 3 hungry tigers instead of just one.

We're already hooked up at the Atrium Suites out there.

I really try to avoid the casinos....too much temptation.
