We stayed in a 2 BR villa in February. Excellent accommodations with very
nice kitchen and rooms. Very spacious. Plasma TVs in all rooms. Location is
also very good. Just of the Vegas Strip. The Planet Hollywood Casino and
Hotel is just across the street and is the closest place for gambling. Bellagio
and Paris are only a short walk away.
Noise was not an issue during our stay. In fact, they must have great walls
cause we NEVER heard any noise from our adjacent rooms or rooms above or
beneath us. I had heard there is more noise the higher you go up. There
are 35 levels to the resort and we stayed on the 11th floor. View was fine.
They have a pool and bar on the top level. Weather was too cold for us to
swim. The pool is very rinky dinky. Especially for Vegas. If a nice pool is
important for you, stay elsewhere.
Like all Marriott Vacation Club resorts, they have a nice kids club with
activities. I brought two kids (ages 3 and 1.5). They really liked the place.
There is no onsite restaurant or casino. They do have a small mini-mart on
the first level with Starbucks coffee and it is open 24 hrs a day which is
nice. Parking is free, valet only. Great service by everyone here.
This may or may not be a big deal for most people, but the fact that you
couldn't just take the elevator down and be at the tables or slots bothered
me. Even if I could just walk across the street to Planet Hollywood. Maybe it
was cause I had little kids and it was harder to sneak away to gamble.
Overall a great resort in a good location with very nice rooms. But, what
kept me from giving it five stars was the lack of an onsite restaurant and/or
casino, and the tiny swimming pool. If those things are not issues for you, I
highly recommend this place. I will probably stay at one of the major hotels
on the Strip next time.
