| - If you want a successful small to medium business conference away from the distractions of the strip, look no further than GVR.
We considered multiple properties for our event, and GVR staff went above and beyond to get our business, not to mention that this property is perfect for a wide range of demographics. The theme is Tuscany, and the decor is subtle and contemporary. There is even a small vineyard in the courtyard.
It has all the right Vegas ingredients: modern pool are with a bar and cabanas, beautiful and delicious restaurants, large casino...but without the craziness of the strip. Of course, if the mood strikes, you can always venture out to the strip (we did one night), but GVR has everything you need for a proper Vegas vacation in one place.
I will address some highlights:
- Pool Area: plenty of comfortable lounge chairs, opium style beds and cabanas. Cute servers, eager and ready to bring you the next beverage of choice.
- SPA & Fitness Center: Plenty of cardio machines, free weights and even some pl yos tools. It has it's own outdoor pool with covered lounges and a hot tub. Beautiful locker rooms. Complimentary towels, water and pool time ;-)
- Casino: not as big as other resorts on the strip, but large enough to have all the games you can think of, including sports betting area and a poker room as well as high rollers lounge. They also still have $5 bets for black jack and roulette...which is hard to find on the strip.
- Restaurants: We tried them all, and they were all very good. Steak, sushi, seafood bar, Italian - whatever your palate is in the mood for.
- Rooms: Get a view of the pool area. Rooms are spacious with large full size bathrooms complete with a glass shower and a soaking tub, even a small linen closet. There is also a vanity are in the hallway, which I loved using to get ready in the am.
Staff was always helpful and courteous!
I will be back at GVR
P.S. GVR offers complimentary shuttle to and from the airport as well as to and from the main Vegas strip. Time slots are limited, but be sure to inquire about it when you book your reservations.
