Wynn Las Vegas, new mega resort. Steve Wynn originally named resort "Le Reve" after renowned painting by Picasso that he owns; he then decided it was not nearly as exciting as name "Wynn Las Vegas". Think of implications - you can win Las Vegas at WYNN!WYNN on site of old Desert Inn will stir excitement in hearts of any who have stayed at Desert Inn in past. There will be ghosts, as well as memories, I'm sure. Steve Wynn is such a magician when it comes to bringing best to Las Vegas, and he's certainly on site of where best once was! The Desert Inn built in 1950 was first hotel or resort to use "water features" in desert. They had original "Dancing Waters Show" and a fountain at their entrance. The Tournament of Champions (first Las Vegas golf tournament) was broadcast by NBC. The first "tall" structure, an observation tower, The Skyroom was built to overlook new Strip's best views. You could see Sunrise Mountain and twinkling lights that were beginning to show on desert floor, but Wilbur Clark with all his imagination could not envision this bronzed glass spectacle that is Wynn Las Vegas.
Everyone is anxiously waiting to stay and enjoy this new thrill. Several years in making, all have watched cranes and earth being moved around, and now phoenix has arisen from ashes of old Desert Inn. The water-themed $1.85 billion megaresort has 42-story hotel tower, a three-acre man-made lake, Wynn's private art collection in an on-site museum, golf course and several private gambling areas.
Wynn megaresort has 2,701 rooms, an average "resort room" is 640 square feet, with special bedding, a sitting area with couch and ottoman, floor to ceiling windows with views of Las Vegas skyline and electronic controls to control window treatments to shut-out or bring-in those views. The price tag for middle of week is around $249.00, not exorbitant for luxury you will enjoy. There is also a selection of suites, including a Tower Suite, Salon, Parlor or Executive Suite. All with appropriate amenities...and even though accommodations are out of this world, you'll be spending more time doing other things.
