My husband and I recently enjoyed a three-day getaway at the revamped Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. It exceeded our expectations, with a fun atmosphere from VIP check-in through to dessert.
A quick trip to Vegas is always enjoyable, but staying at the Palms transforms a standard visit into a luxurious experience. The resort balances boutique charm with plentiful amenities while retaining the excitement of Vegas. Our sunny retreat provided a delightful blend of relaxation and thrill, complete with numerous breathtaking moments.
Luxury Living in the Fantasy Tower
We stayed in a Fantasy Salon Corner Suite, which combined modern elegance with inviting comfort. The spacious suite featured towering windows that showcased stunning views of the Las Vegas skyline, allowing us to pause in awe multiple times. With its bright décor and high-end finishes, the suite tempted us to unwind while still observing the vibrant life outside.
Poolside Bliss, Vegas Style
We truly embraced the quintessential Vegas pool experience at the Palms Pool over two blissful days. A plush poolside daybed offered a perfect spot to soak up the sun, sip cocktails, and munch on delicious onion rings (with no regrets). While the atmosphere was leisurely, it retained a lively edge, thanks to the friendly staff who ensured our drinks were always full.
A Memorable Dinner at Scotch 80 Prime
Dining at Scotch 80 Prime was undoubtedly a highlight of our trip. We began with Bluefin Tuna Poke Tacos and the comforting Four Onion Soup Gratin. For the main course, we chose the Filet Mignon—mine Oscar style and his paired with a succulent lobster tail. We complemented our meals with rich sides of Mac & 3 Cheese and Creamed Corn and ended with the evening’s star: the Pavlova, a light, flavor-packed dessert. My strongest recommendation is to order the Pavlova, thanks to Chef Marty Lopez for making our dinner memorable.
Buffets & Quick Bites
On our final day, we experienced the AYCE Buffet, which surpassed ordinary buffet experiences. With seven stations featuring everything from fresh seafood and hand-carved meats to global dishes and impressive desserts, it felt like a culinary journey. The frequent arrival of fresh food and the enthusiastic staff made the dining experience even more enjoyable.
Romantic Touches at the Palms
Enhancing the romantic atmosphere, the unique Til Death Do Us Part wedding chapel has re-opened. Created by visual artist Joshua Vides, this striking black-and-white 800-square-foot venue combines pop art aesthetics with a wedding setting, making it an unforgettable choice for elopements, vow renewals, or even aspirational Vegas weddings.
Final Thoughts
Whether indulging in poolside luxury, enjoying unforgettable meals, or contemplating a spontaneous vow renewal, the Palms Casino Resort provides a uniquely stylish Vegas experience. For us, it was an ideal combination of comfort, elegance, and opulence.
And who knows? You might leave with more than just a tan—perhaps even a marriage license!
