If quality is your number one criterion for a Las Vegas hotel, Wynn is the winner. Everything here seems to to be a notch or two above the other high-end properties on the Strip.
Rooms are very nice, with kind of a Spartan look that is clean and welcoming as opposed to the decorative excesses of some other properties. Beds are great. Views from the high floors on the Strip side are magnificent. The pool area is top-notch - much more sedate and far less crowded than Mandalay Bay.
"Le Reve" is nearly as good as "O" (it was just as good before they - on Steve Wynn's orders - decided to make it less dark). "Spamalot" is one of the funniest shows I have ever seen - sadly, it is closing on 7/13.
The Buffet is now a Sunday morning ritual for me. Sugar and Ice offers nice, cool outdoor seating by the waterfall. Every restaurant is top notch, though some boast prices that are not necessarily in line with what you get.
The Esplanade contains stores full of "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" items - but it's still nice to walk through on the way over to Fashion Show Mall.
Parasol Up and Parasol Down are nice, upscale lounges. Tryst attempts to be a classier take on the loud nightclub, but I didn't really enjoy it because that whole scene isn't for me.
I'm looking forward to the opening of Encore to see what new surprises Mr. Wynn has in store for us. It's going to cost you to stay here, but this is one hotel where you really do get what you pay for.
