| - Update 8/2007
Just got home from another stay at the Wynn, we arrived late Tuesday and headed home Saturday. All in all, it was a great stay. Service was good and check in was quite pleasant. The suites are amazing with their own pools and spacious accomodations.
The pool this time was pretty crowded but we had a cabana which I highly recommend. They are a bit pricey, but it's nice to have one if you spend a lot of time at the pool. The Wynn really doesn't have a lot of shade so having the cabana to retreat to is nice. The pool also (unfortunately) had more kids in the main pool this time than on other visits. Don't get me wrong, there were still quite a few less children than many other other hotel pools though so this still wasn't terrible. The Cabana Bar makes a great margarita and other great drinks, but as with everything at the Wynn, keep in mind that they are pricey ($12-14 for most blended drinks.)
I wasn't disappointed aside from the experience at Chanel, but I don't blame that on the Wynn. I'll return.
============
I'll be perfectly honest: one of the reasons I LOVE the Wynn is because of the "No Stroller" policy. No strollers = fewer people who bring their whining little monsters along = great thing in my book. I can see why this wouldn't appeal to some, but I personally appreciate it.
That said, Steve Wynn is known for being over the top and liking excess and this place is definitely just that. I hate your typical Vegas "theme" hotels in general and so if you're the same way, this place, a long with the Four Seasons are the best of the bunch if you actually want to stay in the the area of the strip. The Wynn however does have the Four Seasons beat as far as having a central location.
Even the regular rooms are pretty spacious and if you like luxury, you really can't go wrong with this hotel. Huge tubs, spacious bathrooms... All in all, I recommend it. Particuarly if you don't have children or if you're just not a fan of them in general.
