The Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa

If you are in need of a peaceful retreat that is not the Downtown Vegas scene, the Westin Lake Las Vegas is a great choice. My wife and I spent 5 nights at the hotel, which offers a great environment for unwinding right on the Lake. We enjoyed the pool every day we could after hiking in the Lake Mead NRA or paddle boarding (we brought our own) either on the river or Lake Las Vegas. While it seems like it is mostly a golf resort, there is plenty to do nearby, including walking ( 10 mins)to the village for shops and food, due to the time of year not everything was open at all times. There is good food and drinks at the hotel, but some places and resort amenities had limited hours/days due to the off season, Rick’s Café had a great breakfast buffet. The front office manager Donovan, along with Via, Alexis, Z and countless others made the stay memorable! The property may be a little older but it is very nice and quite a value for everything provided, especially if you are needing a chill or different break from the Vegas Hustle and prices. We are already looking forward to coming back!!!

Sitting at the pool. It’s 95 degrees out, spring break and packed. The pool restaurant and bar are closed. Everyone talking and trying to figure out where to get lunch. Beautiful resort with lots of potential. Who is managing this place??

If you’re going with young kids make sure you check the pool hours beforehand. The pool closes at 5, the other pool was only open saturday and sundays and the beach was “closed for the season” even though it was 90°. The poolside grill was also closed. You have to ask a lifeguard for pins in order to put up the umbrellas and sometimes they don’t have enough which was annoying. Overall a nice place and the staff inside were always friendly and helpful, just a few things that could make it better!

This could have been a fantastic stay. But we got a dark room at the first floor, worn. The little patio was not usable as the sprinkler was on several times a day (at least two). Besides the insects was too numerous to even try to use the patio when sprinklers were out. The Hotel sits on a beautiful site by the lake and it could have been nice if the upkeep was better. A makeover is in dire need.

A great place to stay! Reasonable rates, clean spacious rooms. The Lake Las Vegas area is beautiful. Doesn’t feel like typical Vegas. Think Italy or Spain! The restaurant’s are top notch. Fantastic happy hour at lobby area bar. A great get away. Super dog friendly and healthy options for both food and physical well being.
