Las Vegas Hotel
In a move to stimulate and revitalize the gambling strip in Las Vegas, Nevada, developer Steve Wynn has poured millions of dollars into real estate and development over the past fifteen years. His development company has remodeled and refurbished several of the most recognizable casinos and resorts in Las Vegas such as; The Golden Nugget, The Mirage, Treasure Island and Bellagio. Without a doubt, his single largest and most exquisite development to date, would be the Wynn Hotel and Casino. The Wynn Hotel and Casino, first opened its doors on the site of the former Desert Inn, in April of 2005.
The Wynn Las Vegas, is often referred to as simply, "The Wynn''. It is a five-diamond casino and resort, located on The Strip, in Las Vegas, Nevada, on 215 acres. The Wynn is located on Las Vegas Boulevard South and Sands Avenue, directly across the street from Fashion Show Mall. The Wynn has 216 rooms, ranging in size from 640 sq. feet to the large more elaborate villas which boast 7,000 sq. feet. The casino area is 11,000 sq. feet, a convention center 223,000 ft. of space and retail space totaling 76,000 sq. feet. There are no rooms containing the number 4, which is considered back luck in the Chinese culture.
The site that The Wynn Hotel and Casino rests on, was the former home of the Desert Inn and additional land was purchased for a golf course. The Desert Inn was demolished by implosion, the design concept was to build the casino/resort from the "inside out''. The Wynn boasts free attractions designed to entice people to come inside and take a look. The main attraction is the waterfall curtain, which flows into a three acre lake, this attraction has been named, "The Lake of Dreams'', and is very popular among guests and tourists alike.
Guests of The Wynn receive valet parking, and enjoy viewing model cars. The Wynn also hosts some of the top names for guests who enjoy shopping, you will find stores such as; Cartier, Chanel, Christian Dior, Louis Vuitton, Alexander McQueen, and many other upscale boutiques. There is something for everyone, this hotel was designed for a pleasurable experience and to bring unique attractions to the Vegas strip.
The resounding theme throughout the casino encompasses both, "Life Imitating Art'', and "Imperfect Dreams''. Signature attractions of The Wynn include; Luxury Sports Car Dealership, and such notable restaurants Alex, Okada, Tableau, Bartolotta and Ristorante di Mare. On the first anniversary of its opening in 2006, The Wynn Hotel and Casino broke ground on a second hotel tower, at an expense of approximately $2.1 billion, this will provide an additional 2,034 rooms, and in 2007, Steve Wynn sought approval to build more villas. There are no other venues on The Strip that offer such amenities and attractions, this is why The Wynn stands out among other resorts and casinos.
