The Mirage Resort Casino ~ Las Vegas Casino Reviews

Upon it's opening in November 1989, The Mirage Casino Resort was the most expensive built Casino/Hotel in history, with a US$630 million dollar construction cost! The property was built by developer Steve Wynn and designed by Joel Bergman.

The Mirage was also the first resort that was built with the money of Wall Street junk bonds. Another interesting fact is that actual gold dust was used in a tinting process that gives the windows of the Mirage Resort their distinctive gold color.

Just to name a few of the 'Signature Attractions' at the Mirage; Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat, The Volcano and The Aquarium come to mind. The nightlife scene is buzzin at B.B. King's Blues Club,
1 Oak Nightclub and Bare at The Mirage. The Mirage is a "AAA Four Diamond" Award-Winning Resort Property.




The Mirage's 3,044 guest rooms with 281 suites feature sophisticated comfort in a refined atmosphere. From your standard queen/king deluxe room all the way upscale to the Villa Suites, everyone is sure to find the comfort level they seek for their entertainment pleasure. Many of the Mirage's rooms are available with awe-inspiring views of the majestic desert mountains, the Las Vegas Strip or even the tropical pool.

Chic upgrades and ultra-modern amenities featured in these rooms offer both stylish comfort and the perfect retreat for relaxation. Lining each guest room are warm woods that accentuate the modern color scheme and well appointed fabrics. Sealy® Posturepedic pillow-top beds are a standard feature in each of their guest rooms, along with a 42" LCD TV, an iHome™ MP3 Playerdock and a cordless phone. Of course, many more amenities are available as well for today's lifestyle. Think about upgrading your room choice to one of the affordable 'Penthouse Suites' (described below) to create your own private oasis while staying at The Mirage.

Penthouse Suite: Located on the top two floors of The Mirage Resort you will find the opulent One & Two Bedroom Penthouse Suite's. These Suites are richly appointed with the finest furnishings and artwork as well as boasting magnificent views of Las Vegas through floor to ceiling windows.

MIRAGE ROOM SERVICE HOSPITALITY MENU

The Mirage Casino experience offers guests a wide variety of table games, a state-of-the-art race and sports book, a poker room that was named "Best Poker Room in Vegas" by Las Vegas Weekly and of course the newest Interactive slots, multi-line machines, traditional "reel slot machines" and the latest video reel machines on the market.

For the 'High Rollers', The Mirage offers the high-limit area where jackpots can exceed $1,000,000! Mirage's High Limit area has 79 slot machines with denominations ranging from $1 to $1,000. Reel slots, video reel slots, video poker and progressive machines are available.

The private "High-Limit Lounge" creates a contempo and intriguing atmosphere for their most valued guests. Distinctive enclaves include three separate semi-private gaming areas with dedicated casino cages and private restrooms. The lounge also features a full service bar with video poker and a private buffet and dining area, all offered in sophisticated surroundings.

"Bare at the Mirage" is a poolside lounge in which guests can perambulate topless and while men are welcome, this attraction is mainly promoted for the women since they are allowed in the lounge for $10–$20 as opposed to the charge paid by men of $20–$40. But hey guys, don't let those few dollars stop you from all the 'eye-candy views' that you will experience at Bare! This is a rare experience for women since in most public places women must have some sort of covering over their breasts.

Bare features an upper deck with an infinity pool and the private VIP area overlooks Mirage's famous dolphin habitat. While lounging in a Daybed or Cabana in the VIP area, guests will enjoy bottle and specialty drink services as well as other food and tropical drink refreshments. Bare offers the ultimate in poolside pampering with its contemporary ambiance and ultra VIP service. The DJ-spun music mix sets a stimulating mood.
