Spotlight Vegas

The Venetian Resort Hotel and Casino opened its doors on May 3rd, 1999. The casino was built on the site of the Sands Hotel, which was purchased by Sheldon Adelson in 1996, and demolished. From the rubble rose the beautiful $1.5 billion Venetian, one of the most luxurious and expensive resorts in Las Vegas.

Complete with gondolas, the Rialto bridge, and a lifelike replica of St. Mark’s Cathedral in Venice, Italy, the Venetian Hotel offers not only gambling, but world-class live comedy acts and musical entertainment. This elegant and luxurious hotel is reminiscent of Venice in all of its Italian beauty. Along with comedy and musical productions, the Guggenheim Hermitage Museum opened inside the resort in 2001, adding to the cultural significance of the Venetian.

Spacious suites, award-winning cuisine, and heart-stopping live entertainment will make staying at the Venetian the experience of a lifetime. The highly acclaimed “Blue Man Group” is a recurring show that delights the senses, and the production of “Phantom of the Opera – The Las Vegas Spectacular” draws crowds from all over the world.

Along with the first class entertainment, the club scene in the Venetian provides a way to unwind and dance until the break of dawn. The Tao Nightclub inundates the senses with an Asian inspired décor, complete with a hand carved 20 foot tall Buddha. The world-class Asian cuisine adds to the thrilling beats of club music, making Tao one of the hottest clubs in Las Vegas.

Outside of beautiful decor and exciting entertainment, the Venetian also provides ample opportunity for relaxation. The Canyon Ranch SpaClub offers an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city with facials and full body massages. Rejuvenating fitness classes and nutritionist consults are also available. As one of the most luxurious spas on the west coast, Canyon Ranch SpaClub is an oasis from the outside world.

Come experience the beauty of the Venetian for yourself. You will be delighted that you did.
