Re: Where to stay in Las Vegas (by R P.):

We've been to Vegas twice. The first time we traded into the Cancun Resort. Although it's not on the strip it's on the same highway about 5 miles down. You can see the strip at night from your balcony. They have shuttles several times a day to and from the strip.

The Cancun (Monarch Grand Vacations) is a very nice resort with a huge meandering pool including a pyramid with waterfall at the end. The pool has a small cafe where you can order food or drink. The pool is touted as being the largest of the timeshare resorts in Vegas.

The second time we went to Vegas we stayed at the Golden Nugget (very nice hotel) on Fremont St. because we prefer Fremont St. (old Vegas) with it's magnificent light shows every night, music and street performers. Fremont St. also has better deals on food and drink than the strip. We ate most of our meals at Main Street Station around the corner from Fremont St. They have a magnificent buffet.

Where ever you end up staying a trip to Fremont St. at night is a must see.
