Welcome to Nevada’s Fabulous Lifestyle

The glits and glamour of Vegas and the best of Mesquite

Jon Rizzi | Colorado AvidGolfer

Thirty-five different songs now accompany the iconic fountains in front of the 4,000-room Bellagio, but with all that’s going on in Vegas, who has time to listen? Whether it’s a show at Caesars, dinner at Nobu, a visit to the Mob Museum or a night of partying and blackjack, vegas.com is your one-stop planning resource.

Room or Sweet?

Dessert, not breakfast, is the most important meal of the day—especially if it takes the form of one of Jean-Phillipe Maury’s carefully crafted chocolates, cookies, cakes and crepes (pictured below). Indulge in his confectioner’s art at his restaurants at the Bellagio and Aria hotels. 

Wild Rides

If catching Britney Spears at Planet Hollywood isn’t thrilling enough, strap into the El Loco roller coaster at Adventuredome. Or see the Red Rock mountains and the Strip from 490 feet above ground (and 33 mph) while riding the Rio’s Voodoo Zipline. Or ask about the even wilder Slotzilla ride—and hope it’s not open.   

World Cuisine

The Mason Street Courtyard at Mesquite’s Eureka Hotel combines the best of Chinese, Hawaiian, Italian and American cuisines in hearty dishes. Along with Char siu pork, pot stickers and penne are such clever items as the Bagel Burger with chive cream cheese and the traditional Hawaiian Loco Moco.
