Luxury resort and casino with its sister property Encore Las Vegas collectively hold more Forbes Travel Guide (FTG) Five-Star awards than any other resort and casino in the world
Overview
Wynn Las Vegas is a luxury resort and casino on the site of the old Desert Inn, opened by Steve Wynn on April 28, 2005, at a cost of $2.7 billion. Together with Encore, it has more Forbes Five-Star awards than any other resort in the world, and people come for luxury, fine dining, the golf course, and its gardens and art.
Hotel Design and Rooms
The bronze-tinted crescent tower is upscale and elegant, with a man-made mountain and lake that hide the resort from the Strip. Its roughly 2,700 rooms and suites have floor-to-ceiling windows, and the public spaces are filled with flowers, mosaics, and garden atriums.
Special Attractions
The Lake of Dreams is a free nightly water and light show on the lake behind the resort, and the Wynn Golf Club is the only golf course on the Strip.
Dining Options
Wynn is known for fine dining, including Wing Lei, which became the first Chinese restaurant in North America to earn a Michelin star, during the years the guide covered Las Vegas, along with SW Steakhouse overlooking the Lake of Dreams, Mizumi for Japanese food, Costa di Mare for Italian seafood, and The Buffet.
