Strip vibes without the Strip hassle — VIP check-in, Grand Loft Suite, steak nights, poolside glam, spa bliss & dim sum dreams.
Las Vegas may be synonymous with neon and nonstop energy, but my weekend at The Palms proved you can have all the luxury without the chaos. Hosted by @palms, I spent 48 hours wrapped in sleek design, delicious food, and restorative downtime — the kind of staycation that reminds you why you love this city.

🛎️ VIP Arrival: Zero Stress, All Style
I rolled in on a Friday afternoon and glided through VIP check-in — no lines, no frenzy, just a warm welcome and keys in minutes. The lobby’s modern art and boutique vibe set the tone: chic, curated, and refreshingly unhurried. Weekend mode: on.
🏠 Grand Loft Suite: Modern & Unforgettable
Walking into the Grand Loft Suite felt like stepping into a private penthouse. Plush seating, a sleek bar, soft lighting, and those skyline views — perfection. The bedroom was all cloud-soft linens and cozy textures, but the real showstopper was the marble bathroom: dual vanities with flattering lighting, a deep soaking tub, and a rainfall shower that made me lose track of time. Robe on, espresso in hand, city lights beyond the window — I was blissed out before dinner even started.
🥩 Night One: Scotch 80 Prime
Steak night at Scotch 80 Prime was a masterclass in indulgence. A perfectly cooked ribeye, a bold red to match, and service with genuine warmth. The room strikes that sweet spot between swanky and comfortable — a place you can linger, savor, and celebrate. Dessert? Let’s just say I intended to “taste” it and ended up polishing it off.
🍽️ Morning Feast: A.Y.C.E. Buffet Brunch
Day two kicked off at A.Y.C.E. Buffet with a playful, globe-trotting spread: made-to-order eggs, pancakes with berries, a little sushi (because vacation), and coffee refills that never stopped. It’s curated, fresh, and — best of all — relaxed. No frantic lines, just good food and good vibes.
☀️ Pool & 💆♀️ Spa: Reset, Completely
Afternoon meant poolside sunshine and a shaded lounger with a cocktail in hand. The energy was vibrant yet civilized — music, palm trees, and space to actually unwind. Later, I floated into The Spa at Palms for an aromatherapy massage and emerged brand-new. Steam, tea, silence. The trifecta.
🥟 Farewell Cravings: Tim Ho Wan
I wrapped the weekend at Tim Ho Wan with dim sum that felt like a hug: the iconic BBQ pork buns, delicate har gow, and silky rice rolls. Comforting, craveable, and the perfect goodbye to an effortlessly luxe 48 hours.
🤍 Why The Palms?
Because it’s Vegas on your terms. Luxe suites, memorable dining, poolside calm, and a spa that actually restores you — all just off the Strip so you can enjoy the skyline without living in the chaos. I arrived with a to-do list and left with a full heart and a reset mind.
#Hosted — thank you @palms for an unforgettable stay. If you’re plotting a staycation or a Vegas weekend with style and sanity, put The Palms at the top of your list.
