- You can have fun just people watching
- Dayclubs / pool parties are amazing
To your point about it be depressing, I feel that way at some of the lower-tier properties. But, if you stay at the Wynn, Venetian / Palazzo, Aria, Cosmo, or Bellagion, you avoid a lot of that stuff... |
Recently went (end of November) and found it interesting. I do agree that the highlights were the food, shows (saw O which was incredible) and people watching lol.
In the same vein, the people watching was a bit sad. I think the day club scene would be a great time but time of year clearly prohibited that. The night club scene was madness, unable to get in anywhere. There's clearly a way to navigate that scene that I just don't know about.
The main thing that irritated me was purely how insanely expensive EVERYTHING was. It got to the point where I just couldn't stomach buying even a bottle of water. I spoke with some locals and they were telling me that prices have skyrocketed in recent years. I think this is a response to the fact people have money to spend. Unfortunately I don't think i'll be going back.
