Las Vegas honeymoons
Las Vegas – Location
Las Vegas is located in the state of Nevada in the western part of the United States, and is a very popular spot for honeymooners, especially those with a penchant for entertainment, nightlife and gambling. It is also convenient for honeymooners in the United States who are looking for a quick getaway and not wanting to travel too far, as it easily accessible, with the McCarran International Airport being the main airport.
Climate
As Las Vegas is situated on the eastern part of the Mojave Desert, its climate is tropical, with sunshine all year, the weather being characterised by hot summers and light rainfall. July and August tend to be extremely hot, followed by May, June and September. Snow is uncommon in here.
Las Vegas has a variety of scintillating entertainment and many attractions for honeymooners looking for a spot of excitement. Some of the most popular attractions…
The Las Vegas Boulevard
It is also popularly called the Las Vegas Strip and is lined with casinos. The city’s downtown area also has an abundance of casinos especially on Fremont Street, like the Golden Nugget, Fremont Casino, Fitzgerald's Las Vegas and the Golden Gate Hotel and Casino. The Fremont Street Experience features a laser show every hour with themes such as Elvis, the Sixties, boogie music etc. In addition, for honeymooners looking for a bit of naughty entertainment, there are topless bars and plenty of opportunities to relax and enjoy the luxuries of the many extravagant hotels.
Hotels with a difference!
On a Las Vegas honeymoon, take in some of the hotels which have tried to recreate the splendour of other popular and romantic destinations in the world…
These include the Paris Hotel, which has a special 'Honeymoon in Paris' wedding package. It has a replica of the Eiffel Tower, which means you don’t have to go all the way to Paris, just soak in the French ambience in Vegas itself! You can take the elevator to the top, for a bird’s eye view of Vegas and enjoy a dinner à deux at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant, with the added charm of a grand view of the Las Vegas strip by night.
And after Paris, if it takes your fancy to experience some of the old world charm of Venice, you don’t have to make a trip there either. Just indulge yourself with a romantic gondola ride with your bride, complete with a serenade to put you in the mood, or take a leisurely walk through St. Mark’s Square at the Venetian Hotel. Or if you’re an art afficionado, go to the reputed Guggenheim Museum.
And if Egypt is what fascinates you, Luxor Las Vegas saves you the trip there with an awesome exhibit of King Tutenkhamen’s tomb.
The Bellagio has a fantastic fountain show with its waters swaying rhythmically to music every night, for free!
Or you can luxuriate at the spa at the MGM Grand which also lays claim to being one of the largest hotels in the world, with its capacity of over 5,000 rooms. The Rio and the Viva Las Vegas Villas offer special ‘honeymoon suites’ and for Elvis fans, there is even a special 'Elvis and Priscilla Suite'.
