We stayed for 7 nights at the Grand Desert and were very happy with our stay!

Our room was spacious and nicely arranged. We had a one bedroom with a king bed and the kids slept on a pull out couch in the living room. There is a full kitchen with dishes and cooking utensils-everything you may need. There are several Wal-marts close by, plus the hotel has a shuttle for grocery shopping each morning ($3 per person). We had breakfasts and a few lunches in the room to save some time and money. The room was clean and comfortable. We loved having a washer and dryer in the room so we could wash some clothes! The only negatives were: 1) since it is a time share resort, there is no daily housekeeping unless you request (and pay) for it. But, we called for extra bed linens, towels, soap, etc. and received it no problem. 2) the shower head wasn't great--good water pressure but no real showerhead.

The location is nice-off the strip but only a few blocks. The hotel has a shuttle that runs to Harrah's, but ends at 9:45pm. We did use the shuttle twice and it was good. We had a rental car that we mainly used--all of the Vegas strip hotels have free parking garages.

The pool was great. There is a kids/family pool that ranges from 1-4 feet deep. It was big and great for the kids! There are lots of comfortable lounge chairs at poolside. There is also a lifeguard. There are 2 hot tubs and a separate big pool just for adults. The pool area is beautiful with palm trees, etc. We loved it.

Overall, this was a great stay in a nice resort in a great location!!! Highly recommended.

I was really looking forward to staying at the Wyndham Grand Desert but I was a bit disappointed. It is quite a good base for access to the Strip and the free shuttle is very helpful. It's just those little things that begin to irk.
The checking in process is fine and we did get given a couple of bags of freebies which included cookies, water and hair bands!
The main problem for us was the sheer size of the place - it's huge and has no 'soul'. The pools are way to small for the amount of people staying there. They probably think that people just want to go to the Strip all the time but that's obviously not the case. We had trouble just finding somewhere to sit near the pool.
The supermarket was very expensive and for families with no transport that must be very annoying. The fast food place did serve nice and quite reasonably priced snacks but they always seemed to shut early. Not that helpful when you're relying on them for something to eat after a very long day!
The unit itself was very clean, comfortable and roomy - especially the bath which a whole football team could have used at the same time!
We asked reception for ideas of where to eat within walking distance and they mentioned Ellis Island on Koval Lane. The food here is great and very cheap. This was the best meal we had in Vegas apart from the Bellagio Buffet.
If we went to Vegas again, we'd probably stay somewhere closer to the Strip, with less rooms and bigger pools!

We book the resort for 1 week through RCI exchange program. The first impression when we walk into the reception area was WOW~ It is not as luxury as Bellagio or Venetian, but it is certain a comfortable space for people who come it to relax from 35C of outside sun.

We were assigned to 14th floor in building 2 which is the main building. It was another wow when we walk into our condo-like room and look out of the window and see the beautiful swimming pool. Everything in the condo was clean and ready to go. All the utensils and glassware were available. We had enough towels and request more soaps and shampoo with ease. Although they only provide 2 bags of laundry detergent, we had no problem getting through the week.

We enjoy the pool every afternoon since day 1. My wife and I enjoy afternoon nap beside pool. We also enjoy pizza and burger which were baked and cook fresh from our condo and brought down to the poolside. The time we spent at the pool was never enough.

We rented a car to make it easier back and forth the strip. Parking was never a problem in any hotel in Las Vegas. We also took the free shuttle service by Wyndham to Harrah's which never kept us waiting for more than 10 min. During our stay, we visited Walmart-Supercenter a couple times which was only 3 mils away. We stock up drinks, snack and food in our fridge, and the pizza and burger I mentioned ealier all came from Walmart.

We arranged a morning to take the '1.5 hour' sales presentation which later took '3 hours'..... We were ok about the time because we were not hurry to rush to next destination. We made it clear that we are not going to purchase the timeshare right in the beginning, so they didn't pressure us. We walked away with $125 of dining voucher and a 3-day-2-night mini vacation certificate. That voucher was later used in Paris for Village buffet (GREAT) and RIO for Seafood Buffet (soso). The mini vacation certificate was 'add-on' to our Mexico trip in September. Everything went perfect in our way.

Although it is a bit of distance from strip, most people could take the shuttle and get onto attractions right away. We enjoy cooking our own food because LV is never cheap in food and drink. We enjoy the facility because it is clean and everything you need is available. We would recommand Wyndham to everyone~

We booked a 3 bedroom for spring break with the kids, It was Great we hung out at the pool all day with the children and then would get some rest and go out at night with Adults, The room was so spacious.. We had a total of 14 people with us. We made dinner every night, The only complaint I have is how pushy they are for the timeshare presentation. I already own, I'm on vacation I don't want to bother with that..
