text: One of our favorite hotel in Vegas This property is off the strip but only miles NorthWest from the South Strip the great restaurants are just minutes away using the direct Summerlin Parkway and South FreewayrnrnThis is a true Oasis with great Spa and Golf opportunities A peaceful refuge perfect for those of us who do not like to be surrounded by a massive lazy sweaty crowd all the time This hotel used to be the Regent Las Vegas but the Regent star chain decided to sell the property to Marriott The star rating is kept but the prices are not as outrageously inflated as those of the Wynn Venetian Caesars Palace Bellagio or any of the other big namesrnrnThe hotel features buildings We always prefer to stay at the Spa Tower where the main reception desk is because the other one is a bit far away minutes walk or so The hotel has around rooms which is about the amount of rooms at the South Strip hotels This means that you do not have to walk a hundred yards to reach your room And a little bit more personal attentionrnrn floors total surrounded by lovely Golf Course and with a view towards the mountains in the NorthWestern part of Las Vegas A decent size casino with very friendly atmosphere not too smoky and quite new looking The Spa is called Aquae Sullis and features any type of massage or treatment It also has a full modern gym sauna and hot tubs outdoors The swimming pool has an interesting irregular shape and is good for families and lounging but it can be also used to do some laps if you are really enthusiastic in my case I get too lazy especially with degrees There is a bar that serves beer cocktails and soft drinks And some burgers salads Mex junk foods which I really do not recommendrnrnThe rooms are some of the biggest in Las Vegas The bedding is of highest quality ergonomic firm but comfortable very clean choices King size bed or Queen beds All rooms have a coffeemaker with some free coffee wet bar with refrigerator inch TVs with cable latest hollywood stuff and lots of porn a walkin closet with large safe deposit box electronic personalized code ironboard fan light with dimmer Bath Robes etc Oh and highspeed internet via ethernet cable unlimited access costs per day also a decent value for VegasrnrnThe bathrooms are larger than the room itself they feature a very pleasant clean WarmWhite or Napoli Yellow marble First thing you see when you enter is a huge or person triangular Jacuzzi bathtub surrounded by mirrors Bring your own Bath Salt candles champagne AND YOUR LOVER gees A separate shower all brass with Rainshower conventional shower head Toilet is of course separated with a door for more privacyrnrnSo Get crazy Take long baths shave epilate squeeze oils out of your nose using the provided electric magnifying mirror or simply poop away in perfect harmony while listening to your favorite TV show or some music via the wallmounted speaker connected to your TV with a volume control knob A phone is also thoughtfully provided next to the john in case if you feel sudden urge to call yo mama Shampoo Rinse Shower Gel Moisturizing Body Lotion Mouthwash and French Milled Soaps are provided dailyrnrnThis hotel has also some decent restaurants even though we never really got to check them out By the way they also serve Starbucks coffee in the lobby often and have a Starbucks within the complex next to the spa and casinornrnI recommend avoiding Vegas in the hottest summer days unless you are a sucker for sauna scorching heat we returned yesterday driving through the Mojave Desert and temperature outside was degrees F ouch I was scared by the thought what if my car breaks down what if my airconditioner dies on me anywayrnrnBut definitely give this hotel a try Bring your signif other some aromatic massage oils candles insence champagne When you do the reservation you may be able to find discounted deals via the Marriott websites They have AAA etc discounts and often they include a free pizza or movie into the deal AKA family package For the same price on Travelocity Expedia or Hotelsdotcom you get nothing extrarnrnEnjoy
