I was offered a $139/night room rate through the Wynn players club along with a friends and family rate of $159/night. My husband and I stayed for 4 nights (Dec 2 thru Dec 6)for his 40th birthday along with two other couples.
Check-in was very easy--we all hoped to have rooms on the same floor, and our friends were placed on the 19th, however we checked in a bit later and no more rooms were left on that floor. We were placed on the 54th floor with amazing views--twist my arm to take that room! You know though, the 19th had the same views, same size room, same everything else--we were just a bit higher.
The room was very nice (standard room)--flat screen tv on wall in main room and bathroom, sofa, desk with fax (with fee), very comfortable bed, large bathroom with deep tub (large enough for two), separate large shower with seat, double sinks, and separate water closet for toilet. Did I say comfortable bed?!? Loved the bedding--was like sleeping in a cloud. No wi-fi, but there is high speed internet at $11.99 per day either via ethernet connection or on the tv. Towels are fabulous and very thick and plush, amenities were top notch--even included mouthwash, scale, hairdryer, iron, and large floor to ceiling framed mirror outside bathroom. And electronically controlled drapes! Fun! Terry lined robes and slippers, even an ipod alarm clock by the bed! So be sure to take your i-pod, if you have one. Nice selection of snacks and drinks in the mini-bar, but you are charged if you lift something and don't put it back within 60 seconds. Turndown is nice touch with chocolates, music set on tv, and slippers laid next to bed for you. I would've used the fitness center if it wasn't $25 per day, and my husband would have loved to golf but it was $500 per person to play the Wynn. He played Reflection Bay at Lake Las Vegas and loved it. He also played Badlands in Summerlin.
The casino is beautiful and well ventilated. I love Vegas in December with all the Christmas lights and decorations up. The grounds are very well manicured and maintained. Several choices for dinner, but very expensive (couldn't do it). We shared $13 sandwiches in Sugar & Ice deli --expensive in my opinion, but they were huge! We also ate at the other ZoozaCrackers deli by the Sportsbook - expensive, but shared everything as they have large portions. The food is top notch--very high in quality. The Terrace Point Cafe is open 24 hours - we had breakfast and a late night snack there - excellent food. I have a terrible food allergy to nuts, and the server at the Cafe told me that the Wynn is very aware of nut allergies. They are peanut free, do not fry in peanut oil, and will state on the menu if an item contains tree nuts. I was impressed! But I would still check every time I order to be on the safe side. The Buffet was incredible - the best dinner buffet in my opinion and well worth the $$$. TIP--If you open a new players club account and earn 25 points you get a free buffet! Ask the desk for details. For a breakfast buffet, though, the Palms is fabulous and less expensive. You can also walk to another casino for cheaper food--Treasure Island is across the street, and Venetian is next door with 2 food courts.
Be sure to watch the lightshow on the waterfall at the Lake of Dreams each half hour after dark. We didn't see La Reve - it is dark until December 26th, I think. Our friends got an online 2 for 1 discount for Spamalot which saved them quite a bit of money. They received a code word to call in to the Wynn reservations line. "runalot" was the word, but I'm not sure how often the word is changed.
We had a great stay, and despite the higher food costs we enjoyed the discounted room rates. We did not stay over a weekend, so we didn't encounter long lines at all--not sure of how busy it would be on a Friday or Saturday.
I would definitely stay again, though at a discounted rate only. The Wynn is great for a special occasion trip. Hope this review helps...
