The Votes Are In

I have heard back from a few people, and it appears that the Vdara hotel on the Strip is the best choice for the group.  I still need a head count, so PLEASE let me know whether you want a single deluxe suite on your own or a larger suite to share with  a roomate so I can reserve the room block.  Rates don't last long.  More details to come soon.

OPTION 2

In the rare instance that you aren't "feeling" the house rental idea, I was able to locate another rather reasonable hotel option.  I believe in "balling on a budget".

The Vdara is a condo complex that has been turned into a hotel, and IT'S ON THE STRIP!!

This is a great option because the rooms have kitchens (can you cay bring your own liquor?), and the rooms are large enough for two people to stretch out in without feeling claustrophobic.  If we're lucky, I may be able to talk them into giving us a view of the Bellagio so we can watch the water show from our windows.

So, if two people shared a room, the cost could be about $300 per person for the entire weekend.  Here are some pics of the Vdara Suite (the smaller of the suite choices with a kitchen)

Or... if you wanted to fly solo, they have deluxe suites available (minus the kitchen) which would be about $425 per person for the entire weekend.

***These quotes DO NOT include taxes which can be rather high in Vegas!!***

Yes, I'm detailed... so shoot me!!!  Let me know what you think!  I'm willing to go with the group!!

What Happens in Vegas...

Well, you know the rest.  What better way to celebrate being 50 and fine than to party in Vegas?

GREAT NEWS!!!  An acquaintance of mine has offered to let us have his 6 bedroom, 3 bath home in a gated community (about 15 minutes from the strip) for $1,000 for the whole weekend!

Check out these pics...

Any decent hotel on the strip (even at group rate) is a minimum of $220 per night (I've checked).  With enough people (at least 5), we could stay the whole weekend for $200 per person.

I haven't seen this house, but I have visited the owner's other (bigger) property, and I can vouch for the cleanliness, etc.  He normally rents this house for $399 per night and above...

This is a deal!!  Are you in??
