Extravagant Las Vegas Suites

When staying in Las Vegas, one thing you’ll never have to do is settle for less than stellar accomodations. With some of the most extravagant and luxurious hotels available anywhere in the world, Las Vegas has suite to fit your particular taste and lifestyle…

Jet Club Las Vegas and Hollywood Jets offer the following article about the luxury that Las Vegas has to offer travelers.  Hollywood Jets is a full concierge and private jet charter broker and can assist you to travel is opulence and comfort for your next trip to Las Vegas, and beyond!

Las Vegas is known for its opulence, thanks to the mega-resort hotels that have cropped up on the strip ever since The Mirage first opened its doors in 1989. Since that date, not all that long ago, the level of luxury available on the strip has grown exponentially. The most recent of these mega-resort hotels to have been built is the Wynn Hotel, complete with its own golf course and Ferrari/Maserati dealership. Built at a cost of US$2.7 billion, it was the largest privately-funded construction project in the U.S.

Although the 5 Diamond Award-winning Wynn Hotel is one of the more desirable properties on the strip, there is no shortage extravagant accommodations in Las Vegas. For example, Steve Wynn’s previous property The Bellagio offers the Villa One Suite for $6,000 a night. This private Villa offers two bedrooms, a private dining room, private gym and its own private entryway through a secret tunnel. Each villa features its own secret garden and the 130-person staff help make your stay a memorable one.

The Venetian Hotel offers the Presidential Suite to high rollers who gamble 6-8 million per night and $150,000 per hand. Baccarat seems to be the game of choice for guests of this suite. Although this suite seems to be reserved for only the biggest whales, If you aren’t a big gambler you can opt in for the Chairman Suite for $15,000 a night. This suite features a mosaic tile entryway, trickling fountain and oriental artifacts may make you feel transported to another era, but the room’s 27 televisions, karaoke room, beauty salon, spa and gym are all state-of-the-art. You also get your own private butler who is available at your beck and call, your own cleaning service, in-room spa service for emergency facial or collagen injections, and the promise of a hotel staff that will do just about anything to make you happy (as long as it is legal, of course.) A Guggenheim Art Museum offers guests of the Venetian many pieces of fine art by masters like Picasso, Van Gogh, Manet and more.

Just off the main casino floor of Caesar’s Palace, past a private guarded entrance, an elevator takes invited guests to the Artemis & Neptune Villas. These indoor mansions are available to casino-invited guests only, and each villa includes its own golf simulator.

If your idea of luxury is to have premium white glove service, the perhaps the MGM Skylofts are your cup of tea. For between $800 - $10,000 a night depending on the date and other factors, you can rent one of these one, two or three bedroom suites that can be as large as 6,000 square feet with 24-foot-high ceilings. The MGM Skylofts come with unparalleled service including a butler unpacking and packing service, in which your butler will press your outfits and polish your shoes without being asked. Other services include airport transfer in a Mercedes Mayback 62, a steam room in every bedroom, and exclusive VIP restaurant + entertainment privileges.

The Four Seasons Suites which take up the top five floors of the Mandalay Bay Hotel offer a more refined and subdued setting for those guests who prefer to escape the bright lights and party atmosphere of the Las Vegas Strip. Why not retreat to the Four Seasons’ Presidential Suite which features floor-to-ceiling windows that offer expansive views of a wide-open desert panorama, rather than the strip’s bright lights for $3,000 per night? The four-star, five-diamond hotel offers tranquility and comfort in this one-bedroom suite, which is outfitted with a baby grand piano, a deep soaking whirlpool tub and even an espresso maker.

From subdued to over-the-top, The Palms Hotel offers several themed rooms including Las Vegas’ most expensive publicized suite. At $40,000 per night, the 10,000-square-foot Hugh Hefner Suite offers a unique experience that can only be found in Vegas.


As far as the outrageously expensive Wynn Hotel is concerned, some of the more extravagant suites in this hotel are only available to casino guests and little information is available as to just how luxurious these accommodations actually are. However, if you’d rather not drop a rather large fortune in the casino to find out, you can rent a Fairway Villa at the Wynn which is available for $2,500 a night and offers cream-colored upholstered walls, rain shower and hand-blown glass sinks, plasma TVs, his-and-hers bathrooms, and an unparalleled view of the the Wynn’s beautiful 18-hole golf course in a 3,000 square foot suite. Sounds like a deal.

How do you choose a hotel in Las Vegas?

For me, it tends to be a pretty simple equation.  Who has the best deals, and what is happening in the city around those hotels and who has fantastic spa amenities?

We have gone to Las Vegas for concerts, to see particular shows (still one of the most memorable is seeing Prince, up close and personal just like I did when I was a kid growing up in the Twin Cities and watching him play at First Ave!) and to just take in some R & R. 

Here is another perspective on how to choose a hotel in Las Vegas.   Jet Club Las Vegas wants to remind you that if you want to travel in luxury and comfort, we have a great solution for you.  Contact Hollywood Jets to discover our travel concierge service and private jet charter brokerage options.

Check out the top five Las Vegas Kids Tours that are sure to give your children level 10 excitement and tons of fun.

Top Las Vegas Kids Tour number 5 is the Self Drive Hummer to Grand Canyon West Rim. Dad or Mom gets to drive the young ones on their very own rented Hummer and explore the magnificent Grand Canyon at their own pace. For kids who are brave enough, the stroll within the glass walls and floor of the Skywalk will be pure excitement. This horseshoe-shaped bridge is raised 4,000 feet above the canyon floor! The Skywalk’s founder wanted to give visitors the experience of "walking the path of the eagle."

The number 4 top Las Vegas Kids Tour is the Black Canyon River Rafting. This is one smooth cruise down the Colorado River between the cliffs of the Black Canyon. Aboard large, safety-ensured, motorized rafts, kids will delightedly squeal when they see desert big horn sheep, osprey and great blue heron making their appearances in the breathtaking landscape. Don’t forget your camera. Great photos are taken here.

The Grand Canyon West Rim Tour with Helicopter and Boat Combo tour is the number 3 top Las Vegas Kids Tour. It’s one of the tours that take you and your family up in the air in a million-dollar copter. The children get to gaze at the spectacular scenery and hold their breath as the helicopter slowly drops down to the canyon floor. You take a pontoon ride down the impressive Colorado River then get on a shuttle bus afterwards to head for the Eagle Point for the tour of the Hualapai Indian Village. Their handmade crafts and jewelry are priceless remembrances of this trip.

The Land Sailing Desert Adventure takes the number two spot of the Top Las Vegas Kids Tours. If your kids love racing on their feet or racing on their bikes, they will absolutely fall in love with racing across the Nevada Desert on land sailers that catch the mighty winds to move. There’s a free lesson on how to maneuver the sailers as well as practice time before actually taking to the desert. Join the mini-regatta and win prizes. One totally unique tour the older kids will remember for a long time.

The number one top Las Vegas Kids Tour is the Grand Canyon Helicopter and Ranch Adventure. In just approximately four hours, kids get to ride a helicopter across the awesome Grand Canyon, ride a horse-drawn wagon through a forest and spend time with real cowboys at the Grand Canyon West Ranch. They can even try out some of the ranch activities like horse-riding. It is certainly an unforgettable tour they can’t wait to tell friends about back home.


More tours and activities await you and your kids. If your children love rocks, try the Red Rock Canyon Luxury SUV Tour to see spectacular rock formations.

Las Vegas, Nevada - Walking the Strip

Jet Club Las Vegas and Hollywood Jets presents the following information on walking the exciting Las Vegas Strip!  Contact Hollywood Jets for your private jet charter and travel concierge needs to Las Vegas.

The Las Vegas Strip is the main area for tourists who visit Las Vegas. Here you will find amazing monuments, hotels, casinos and buffets. The strip is home to the Bellagio, the Wynn, Caesars Palace, and many more great establishments.

The Las Vegas Strip, which is also referred to as "The Strip" is roughly a 6.5 km length of Las Vegas Boulevard South in Paradise and Winchester, Nevada. "The Strip" is south of the Las Vegas city limits. A lot of the better known hotels, casinos and resorts in Las Vegas are located on The Strip. One of the most, if not the most visible and memorable aspects of Las Vegas’ cityscape and culture is its employment of dramatic themes. Because of the hotels, casinos, and restaurants on "The Strip" that use these heavy themes, Las Vegas has established itself as a popular vacation destination for tourists.


Las Vegas Boulevard is full of glitz and glam of unrivaled proportions. It’s very easy to say that "The Strip" is over the top. "The Strip" is the main thoroughfare of gambling U.S.A. and home to most of the countries best and most well known hotels and casinos. No trip to Vegas is complete without a stroll down the Strip at night. The culture is evident in blaze of blinking lights and ocean of humanity making its way to winning slot machines. Evenings are also the most comfortable time of day to be outdoors. So don’t sleep too early, take your stroll under the stars and bask in the glow. A couple of attractions that I recommend are the Mirage for its trademark volcano and Treasure Island for the pirate battle. The best of section of "The Strip" is located between Sahara and Tropicana Avenue.

Other than taking part in the tournament where you can participate in some No Limit Holdem, you can pick from Texas Holdem, 7 Card Stud, Omaha or a few other variations according to what players request. The limits are as follows:
a) Limit Holdem: 2/4, 3/6, 4/8 dollars.

And with choice I mean you can get the surrounding and atmosphere you desire such as, a Elvis Presley wedding, which is probably one of the most famous and in demand of all.

Las Vegas is a metropolitan city but is not very large therefore you will find that most hotels will be situated in the heart of the city where the action is unless you are looking for a quiet time (though nobody comes to Las Vegas for a quiet time) and then you will need to look for hotel in the suburbs and away from the excitement. Choosing a Las Vegas hotel should be done through an agent to benefit of the maximum amount of facilities in the same price but you can also check online to ensure that the prices are competitive with that provided by your travel agent.
