Picture a luxury lakefront resort development, 17 miles from the (in)famous Las Vegas Strip: so near to all that glitz, and yet so far.
Lake Las Vegas is a 320- acre privately-owned lake with marina, a shopping and dining "village", private residences, and three resorts designed with Italian influence: the Loews Lake Las Vegas Resort, Montelago Village at Lake Las Vegas, and the former Ritz-Carlton Lake Las Vegas which is now becoming a Dolce Resort.
Lake Las Vegas has fishing, sailing, kayaking, swimming; around the lake and in the desert hills are paths for hiking and biking. Imagine, all this family fun just 17 miles from the Las Vegas Strip.
If parents want some couple-time, the Loews Lake Las Vegas Resort offers a year-round Kids Club, available for a full day or half day, including lunch. Babysitters can also be arranged. And Loews Lake Las Vegas has a complimentary shuttle to the Strip several times a day.
Parents can also take a romantic gondola ride with Gondola Adventures (though kids will probably insist on having a family gondola ride too.)
The Montelago Village, meanwhile, has condo units with up to three bedrooms, and fully equipped kitchens -- always a plus, for families-- and a game room with foozball, air hockey, video games and board games. You can rent these units just like a hotel room.
