A chic, first-person guide to the three-hotel campus, the best meals, and the social-ready moments you can't miss.
There’s a new energy on the Strip, darling — and it’s radiating from the striking red towers of Resorts World Las Vegas. Built as a modern integrated resort, the property is a true “content island”: stunning art, dramatic public spaces, and a breadth of culinary and wellness moments designed to be experienced — and photographed.
🏨 Three Hotels, One Smart Strategy
What I loved most: Resorts World houses three distinct Hilton brands under one roof — Las Vegas Hilton, Conrad, and Crockfords (LXR). That triptych approach creates a beautiful market ladder: approachable luxury at the Hilton, aspirational comfort at Conrad, and ultra-exclusive service at Crockfords. Guests share the same world-class amenities, which makes upsell feel natural rather than pushy.
💧 Pool Day: Athena Infinity & Poolside Perfection
The 5.5-acre pool complex is a destination in itself. The Athena Infinity Ultra Pool is adults-only and the most photogenic spot on property — absolutely iconic for sunlit photos and late-afternoon golden hour shots. Private cabanas and daybeds make it easy to treat the day like an event.
🧖♀️ Wellness That's Social: Awana Spa
Awana is a 27,000 sq. ft. wellness playground — think hydrotherapy circuits, theatrical Aufguss sessions, and communal spaces designed for sharing the experience. It’s a modern spa where “instagrammable” meets real relaxation.
🎲 Built for Modern Players
The gaming floor combines size (c.117,000 sq. ft.) with frictionless tech — cashless wagering and loyalty tracking that’s mobile-first. It’s clearly aimed at a younger, digitally native audience without losing the classic Vegas thrills.
🍽️ A Culinary Passport
Dining at Resorts World is a funnel: you can start casual at Famous Foods Street Eats and finish at a multi-course chef’s tasting. Highlights I recommend:
- Stubborn Seed — a precise, inventive tasting menu (chef Jeremy Ford).
- Brezza — theatrical coastal Italian, whole fish tableside moments that photograph beautifully.
- FUHU — high-energy contemporary Asian for a glamorous night out.
🍸 Nightlife & Secret Spots
For sunset cocktails, Allē Lounge on 66 is unbeatable. And for a late-night insider moment, Here Kitty Kitty Vice Den — a hidden speakeasy inside the food hall — is the kind of discovery that makes a Vegas trip feel personal and exclusive.
🛍️ Art, Retail & Culture
The District shopping esplanade and the resort’s art program are more than decor — they’re landmark content moments. From Andy Warhol prints to the massive Lucky Cat sculpture, the property is designed to create shareable visual anchors.
