Just returned from Vegas, stayed at WG Flamingo Bay for 6 nights. Arrived at about 11:30 pm so wasn't hassled by the timeshare sales reps!!

Had a 2 bedroom suite. There were 3 of us but could easily accommodate up to 8 people. Room was clean, nothng spectacular. Good distance from the Strip so I had a car. However, they offer hourly shuttle service from the resort to the strip ending at 1 am. Grocery store about 1 minute away.

I would reccomment this resort and would stay there again.

I stayed at the Westgate Flamingo Bay with my mom and a friend. I got the week at a great price, as a friend is an owner and couldn't use his week.

The property is gated, and I always felt very secure. Check-in was easy, but then you are directed to a 'concierge' desk where they try to sign you up for a timeshare presentation. (Side note: I did not do a presentation set up through Flamingo Bay. I did one set up through the Planet Hollywood on the strip and got better show tickets and dinner - which was a big jump from what Flamingo Bay was offering.)

We had a 1 bedroom (unit 2211, I believe), and the unit itself is nicely appointed. We had 3 people, 4 would be pushing it space wise (in my opinion). We discovered that night that you can hear everything between the units. Thanks to our noisy neighbors (they had a unit next to us and above us), we never got great sleep. This could also be attributed to the super loud air conditioner - I've never heard one so loud. Another problem was since we were located near the front of the resort, parking was a premium as it appeared that most of the front parking spots were taken by the sales staff.

The location of the timeshare was great in relation to the strip. Close enough to be involved, far enough away to get some peace. I also liked the convenience of being able to eat meals in our condo. (The staff was very helpful in pointing us in the direction of a grocery store, etc.)

I never used the strip shuttle, but my mom did and said it was fine. I also never used the pool, but my mom and friend enjoyed it.

With some minor changes, I think this could be a better property. I just would not stay there again unless it was at a great price like I got.

We stayed at Westgate on an exchange time share week. Although the resort is 25 yrs old it is very well maintained. Our 2 bdrm unit was very clean and comfortable - the bedrooms being located at opposite sides of the unit provided privacy and quiet for all. It is located about 2 miles from the central part of "the strip" and an easy drive right down Flamingo Rd. (the resort offers hourly shuttle service, but we had our own car and didn't use it) and free parking is available at all casino/hotels. It was nice to be away from all the hub bub of the strip. The staff at Westgate were very accomodating - responding quickly to any of our needs (like extra towels and the maintenance crew taking apart the bedroom sink to retrieve my gold earring which I accidently dropped down the drain). They offer a lot of activities on premises and the pool area was very nice.

My stay here was fantastic! It offers peace and tranquility with a feeling of safety. I love this gated community. On my first morning, I was able to take a FREE shuttle to Walmart...how nice. The shuttles they offer are great and the drivers are very prompt and dependable. Because I am a good planner, I was able to hit the strip some days 2-3 times. There is really no need to rent a car if you stay here. The entire Front Desk staff are some of the most professional people I have dealt with. I give kudos to the younger staff, they were all effecient, courteous and attentive. Nice grounds and very spacious condos! I had a great birthday week here and met friendly people from all over the US.
