“This must be by far the best hotel i've stayed at in Vegas. Clean rooms, spacious, mordern en friendly staff. No ironing board? No problem, brought to your room in 10 minutes. Compared to the Aria- which was about the same price - this feels like a massive upgrade. Well done!”

“Perfect place to stay if you got money to spend. With plenty of entertainment like awakening, it is such a fun resort. The rich gold theme makes you feel powerful with each step. The pool is nice and clean with many florals and plants surrounding the resort. There are many shops to buy from mostly clothing stores but there are many other shops like decor stores with paintings and statues. I love the Wynn and the Encore because the experience is perfect.”

“Encore Las Vegas ✨ One of the nicest resorts I’ve ever stayed at. The pools are gorgeous, the spa is beautiful, and every meal we had was delicious. Room service was especially impressive—attention to every detail. They surprised us with chocolate-covered strawberries and a handwritten note for our anniversary, which was such a thoughtful touch. Fresh, crisp sheets every day, spotless rooms, and everything you could possibly need. Our view of the Sphere wa…”
