Booked through Interval International because Marriott's Grand Chateau had no vacancy over Labor Day weekend. We are Marriott owner's (in Florida) but were only going to be in Vegas for 5 days. Let me say right away................lock-off rooms are tiny!!!!!!!!! They are not what they appear to be in the pictures online at the hotel website.
I have written to Club de Soleil (3 weeks ago) regarding the problems we had with this property. I am waiting one more week to hear from them about some type of refund or how they would like to handle what turned out to be a huge disappoinment. If I do not hear from them shortly........I will be giving a follow-up review next week.

This property was very nice. My wife and I along with another couple stayed in phase2 of this property. I was impresed with the cleanliness and the overall accomodations. If you rent a car the grocery store Albertsons is right down the street on Tropicana Ave. It is a great store and open 24/7. There are shuttles to and from the strip but if you drive there is plenty of free parking at the Casinos. The only bad part was that my room was not ready when I arrived and we had to wait for three hours. However the staff did a great job in service recovery and gave us an upgrade to a connecting 2 bedroom. the whirlpool is a little high when getting into it. So if you're stiff you may have a small problem, Overall it was a great value.

I would only recommend staying at the Club de Soleil if location is not important to you. Yes, there are hourly shuttles to a couple of Strip hotels (during my stay it was Treasure Island and New York New York), but unless you're willing to pay for a taxi to and from the hotel (I think around $10-15), the shuttles can make you a slave to a schedule. I've stayed on the Strip before and it's nice to just walk out and be in the heart of Vegas and not to have to rush to catch a ride.

The room was very clean and comfortable. The bed was good and the kitchenette was great. The shower was just awful though. At times, the water was virtually down to a trickle.

Definitely ensure you get a room facing away from Tropicana Avenue because it's a very busy street. And also try to stay on the 3rd floor.

I stayed here for a girls weekend first weekend of April. There were 5 girls and plenty of room. For the price, it was well worth staying off the strip. We were out most of the time but when we were there it was very nice, clean and comfortable. This is actually my preference to a hotel. This property is great... just one complaint. Check out time is at 10am... and they mean 10am. At 10:01am... someone will actually knock on your door asking if you are checking out. Nothing like feeling rushed out at the end of a vacation. I didnt see lines of people waiting for my room so what's the big deal? The sister property Tahiti Village is NOT like this, so although CDS is nice... the check out just irks me. Otherwise, great place!!
