| - This is a Shell Property (timeshares), Wyndham just bought Shell so I expect there to be some upgrades in the next year or so...I am a Shell owner. First time at this resort.
I've stayed at nicer Shell resorts (Kauai Coast, Vino Bello in Napa) but this was pretty decent. The property is on the older side than Vino Bello, and the less renovated side than Kauai Coast. The rooms are nice enough, full kitchen.
Very close to Hooters Casino and Tropicana. About a 5-10 minute walk to the Strip, depending on what ridiculous heels you are wearing and how drunk you are.
This was purely a place to lay our heads down at the end of 2 very long nights. I would not ever hang out at the pool here, at least until I have kids. It's still kind of on the small side and boring. I'd go to a better pool probably, even with my as of now imaginary children. We went to the Tropicana pool, always one of the most fun pools in town, IMO.
It looks much newer and nicer in the pics online...it's nice, don't get me wrong, just not as sparkly as the pics make it look. Close enough to the strip and for me as an owner of Shell timeshare points, paid for already, so the price is right for me! I'd stay here again, I pretty much use rooms in Vegas for getting ready to go out for the night, and passing out at the end of the night, so I don't need a penthouse suite with a stripper pole anyways.
