The ultimate Las Vegas Vacation of five incredible days.

My dream Las Vegas vacation would tantalize every sense and emotion. My husband and I would be picked up in an outrageously oversized limo. We would be taken The Hotel where our top floor suite awaits with an amazing view of the entire strip. After taking in the beauty and variety of interior deign of the many hotels we would choose one number to place a $100 roulette bet. With our winnings we would shop the upscale stores at the Bellagio that normally you wouldn't even window shop. With hunger looming we would satisfy our appetites with cuisine at Joel Robuchon's, the only three-star Micheline rated restaurant in Las Vegas or Los Angeles. And the night is just beginning. Our souls would be captivated by the performance of the one and only world class entertainer, Sir Elton John. From there we would mosey on to Tobin Ellis' bar for a taste of his personally created Serengeti cocktail, contestant of Throwdown with Bobby Flay on the Food Network. Feeling good yet? The rest of the night we would have VIP treatment at the nightclubs where we are bound to meet celebrities like Justin Timberlake, Matt Damon or Chuck Liddell. The next morning, not remembering what time we made it back to our suite, we would wake in our lush bed to the smell of freshly brewed coffee where a service tray had magically appeared with hot omelets, crisp bacon and sweet pastries. And this would leave us wanting to fall back asleep to dream again of all the exciting adventures that can be found in Las Vegas. Karen Hayn  Henderson NV

My Las Vegas dream vacation would be one that begins with me lounging in the hot tub spa saying, "Ahhh...this is the life" following my hot stone massage. There would be no phone ringing. There would be no bills in my mailbox to worry about. There would be no 5-year-old to dress and drop off at school. There would be no cares in the world. My Las Vegas vacation would include me sitting at a restaraunt having my every craving fulfilled and my needs met. There would be no preparation and clean-up involved. I would not have to cut meat for my daughter. I would not have to clean up any spilled milk. My food would be hot when I ate it because I didn't have to wait on anyone else. My Las Vegas vacation would include shows that I actually get to watch because I don't have a 5-year-old climbing on my lap. I wouldn't have to apologize to those seated around me. I wouldn't have to leave early because my daughter is getting cranky. I could spend my day with my girlfriends lounging at the pool talking about something other than Barbie and her dream house. I could do whatever I wanted as I wouldn't be worried about pleasing someone else. My Las Vegas vacation would include some sexy dresses that I have never worn as you don't need to dress up for McDonald's burgers. I could spit out some swear words and gamble, something I have to be sure not to do around my daughter. My Vegas vacation would relieve me of the daily conversations with my divorce attorney. Because she charges me by the minute, I would actually save money by going on vacation! My Las Vegas Dream Vacation is certainly a dream.  Kimberly Hill  Erie PA

Just got married in October of 2007 times are hard so we did the dead in a court house we love each other so much we couldnt wait if we could we would fly to Vegas and stay in one of the luxury hotels and be pampered and wine and dine each other ,shopping of course, and gambling no dought . Vegas is an awsome dream but winning would make it all so much more exciting not to mention we would renew our vows , did I mention we did not even have a honey moon or even a cake but maybe one day thank u for ur time.  Danice Pickren  Goodlettsville TN

Hi! My name is Ray Durgan. I just recently asked my girlfriend of 2 years to marry me. Both of our parents re-newed their wedding vows in Las Vegas (my parents 10 years ago and her parents 15 years ago). We did not know eachother at the time, but thought that it was somewhat ironic.  Ever since I proposed a few months ago, I thought it would be wonderful to actually have our wedding ceremony in Las Vegas and bring our family with us. My parents will be celebrating their 30 year anniversary in June and her parents will be celebrating their 35th in October. I'm certain it would be the most memorable event I could ever imagine if we had a triple ceremony. Our parents would both re-new their vows & my finace & I would get married.
I would love to surprise Laura & our parents with a triple ceremony in a quaint Vegas chapel. Of course, we would then have a dream reception for everyone at Bellagios or one of Vegas' exquisite hotels! Thanks for considering my entry!  Raymond Durgan  Rochester NY

My best dream vacation in Vegas would be to be able to stay at a Las Vegas Strip Hotel ie Venetian Bellagio or Mandalay Bay. Be able to go to their spas and be totally pampered, with massages and such.....To be able to purchase a really nice gift for my wife....as she really deserves it .....See Bette Midler....Play a round of Golf or two....at a very high end golf course.....And of course eat at the very best restuarants and attend a really nice club....This probably doesn't sound like much....but I hope you can grant this wish....thank you very much ......James L Ontiveros Sr  Kamuela HI

I wish to arrive in Vegas and be greeted by a limo and cocktail! Followed by a trip of shows (Thunder from Down Under, Blue Man, etc), fine dining and clubbing! I would also like gift cards to shop with and behind the scenes tour of the Wynn.  Kim Jacob  Snellville GA

My idea of a perfect Vegas trip is rather simple, I want to be on a lucky streak.  What I mean is that I want to go to Las Vegas and win.  I have never been to Las Vegas and won every day.  My perfect trip would let me win every day during my vacation.  To me, that up feeling would be the best.  Ralph Devin, NY

it's part of my bucket list to visit vegas. i owe it to myself to say i have been there. i made it a point to go to new orleans during mardi gras.. and vegas is next on the list.i want to see it instead of on tv. or in a book like the stand by stephen king i want to experience the excitment and thrill of vegas before i kick the bucket.  Merri Harris  berwyn IL

I went to Vegas in early March and i absolutely loved it, i would go back in a second. I'm dying to go back!  Sandy Medeiros  Mississauga ON Canada

I would begin with a limo ride to a romantic suite at any of the top resorts ie. Venetian, Bellagio, theHOTEL, Mandalay Bay, Ceasars Palace, Palms. Then possible a romantic dinner at any of the private restaurants in town. A few hours of gambling. A helicopter ride to the Grand Canyon for lunch and maybe spend the night at the lodge. Dinner and a show on the strip. Elton John's Red Piano or Cher, Folies Bergere', Mistere', "O". Solitude at one of the spa's with my husband and an evening at the hotel room with dinner for 2 with a scenic view overlooking the strip and mountains. A day of shopping at the forum shops and Fashion Show Mall. A trip to Vegas of course is not complete without a trip downtown to see the show on Fremont Street and do a little gambling in one of the older hotels.  Samuel Fabrizio  Henderson KY

I wake up blurry eyed and remember i booked a vegas trip late last night after realizing my wife just left me. I look at the clock I have an hour to get to the air port. I dont pack I just crab my credit card and go. I arrive at my hotel i donteven check in I go directly to the "high roller slots" play for about 12minutes and hit the 1M jack pot. I decide to do some shopping, and meet the the most beautiful shop girl I've ever seen I invite her to dinner she accepts...I'm upgraded to the "high roller sweet" she stays the night,and the next and the next...I'm in love and alive!!! I ask her to marry me she accepts...we stay one more night...she agrees to fly home to SF with me...Everything is great...2 months later she tells me shes pregnant...we fly back to Vegas get married and over the next 3 years we have two girls..I invested the 1M I won and now its time to retire...and we live happily ever after the end.  michael obrien  albany NY

I moved to Vegas in 98 so this is interesting for me to write. A dream trip for me would be with my family of 4 to have a driver, drive us around the city to see all the lights. (living here someone misses out while driving) We would vacation a week or 2 so we don't miss out on anything. I would start at one end of the strip and see all the casinos inside and out with of course taking as many pictures as possible. We would enjoy as many free shows as possible as well getting sample platters at as many restraunts that we can. We would stay at Mandalay Bay, Casears Palace, The Venetian or the Paris hotel, maybe even mix it up a little. Of course I would have to have a jacuzzi tub so I can relax after a day of walking. I would treat the family to a massage around the 3rd day. Before we would end the vacation we would take a trip up to Mt. Charleston, Red Rock and the Dam for some off the strip site seeing.  Lisa Lammers  Henderson NV

My Vegas dream vacation is one unlimited by cash limits, calorie limits, alcohol limits, or time limits. I'd sleep in and enjoy breakfast in bed, be pampered poolside with mimosas and bellinis, find luck & excitement on the gaming floor, tour the town in my own private limo, enjoy the finest meals in new restaurants, and enjoy rooftop cocktails at the hottest lounges. There would be no need for restaurant reservations, and all our meals would be prepared by the actual celebrity chefs, who would visit our table for a post-meal conversation alnog with a complementary bottle of wine. We, my husband and I, would agree upon show tickets, a feat in itself, and would float out afterwards with stars in our eyes. After a few days and nights on our own, we would invite friends to fly in for the weekend and the party would start all over again, and would include some excellent golf rounds and beers on the 19th hole. Of course, on my dream vacation, my golf game would improve considerably. And because I love my husband, on my dream vacation, he would win a seat in the world series of poker, and he'd go all the way to the final table. The excitement would be palpable, and it would come down to the wire, but ultimately he would win it all, resulting in an unbelievable story that the national media would tell, of the amateur poker player who went all the way to the top. And since this is my dream vacation, we would end up taking our private jet home, instead of flying in coach on a crowded commercial plane. This all sounds so good to me, when do we leave? Gotta love Vegas, the dreaming is almost as much fun as the doing. Laurel Hansen  Maple Grove MN

Many people go to Vegas to get married, but I was lucky enough to have a wedding which no one else in Vegas has ever had...my dream wedding. Last year, the Fest For Beatles Fans held their first Vegas convention, and I got married onstage, opening night...a first in the 34 years the fest has been held, a first in Vegas! It was my dream wedding, I danced my first dance with the Pete Best Band playing, spent 3 days surrounded by Beatles fans and beatles music, in one of the most exciting cities in the world.  Lisa Barton  Montgomery Village MD

I will hop on the next flight from Detroit to Vegas, when I arrive, I will take a cab to my favorite hotel/casino MGM Grand! Check into my marquee suite on the 24th floor, get settled in then head on down to play my favorite 777 slots, start out on dollars and work my way up. After I win a few, I will take a break and have a little lunch comped at the MGM Buffet with a line pass. After lunch I will walk the strip, going from one hotel to the next until I cover all must see's in town, sight seeing, shopping and gambling 'til I drop! Head back to my suite for a little rest and back down to the casino to play some table games, can't stay longer then two hours though 'cause I have free tickets to go see a show, O at Bellagio! After the show I will grab a bite at the Pyramid Cafe at the Luxor after that I will hit the clubs, Jet at the Mirage! Have a few drinks then back to the MGM Grand for more slots, getting pretty late so i'm on my way back to my suite to get a few hours of sleep before getting up and doing it all over again the next day. Lisa  Halawani  Dearborn MI

Have been before would like to return again! My ideal would be a relaxed stay for comfortable hotel and food,a little service but let me just lay back. I am 64 and medically had heart & Kidney transplant. I love the city and the people its history and excitment that just gives you a natural high.Many fasanating people in a city that never sleeps. To see a good magical show, musical presentation of dancing and showmanship would be outstanding. Buffets with a selection of fish, as fish is my diet. Would be great to visit the originial town of Las Vegas which I know is in the desert somewhere, Take in the native haunts their great local restaruants that a tourist never gets to see unless it is by mistake. Take a day and become a native/ 1 day a tourist/1 day a historian/1day of releation in a local spa/1day to do nothing but walk the strip and watch people in the streets and in the casinos. And maybe just maybe get lucky to personally meet someone "famous", a singer, actor, actress, comediean, or Donald Trump. I would like to meet Donald Trump. Thanks for listenng to me and considering my entry. However, this turns out I know I have been able to express my feelings about a city I have visited and would always want to vist again. Why becasue of the people in Las Vegas.. varitey
and varitey is the spice of life. Thanks again.  Ken Engish  Madison ME

See Bette Midler's new show in the evening. The following day, relax poolside with a private cabana. Aftewards, dinner and drinks at a great sushi restaurant.

Las Vegas is a fantastic city for dreamers, full of lights, games, laughter, drinks, awesome food, and the best hotels in the World! I want to Move to Las Vegas, but I'll definitely settle for a dream vacation. As a single parent, I don't get many opportunities to travel, & have only been to Vegas once. I fell in love instantlyl, and retell the amazing details to my kids all the time!  Tammy Coley  Rocky Mount NC

 It would be awesome to land at night in Vegas so I can see the beautiful lights from the plane window. Then I'd love to go to the Luxor and try my luck at the slot machines. I love Egyptian things and I can't think of a more amazing place to play my first slots.  Next I'd love to go out to a dinner and a show. I'd be thrilled to see Phantom Of The Opera. Then I'd love to drive around and see the beautiful lights of the city. I would love to see all the beautiful lights and buildings.
Next I'd love to see Penn & Teller perform. My boyfriend and I love to watch them on Showtime and I'm sure they put on a great show in person.  Then I'd like to see Madame Tussauds. 
Then I'd like to see the Pet Theatre. My boyfriend and I LOVE cats and animals in general.
Next I'd love to see Titanic Exhibition. It would be a very serious moment to see something historical such as the Titanic artifacts. It would be something I'd never forget. Next, I'd love to surprise my boyfriend with The Sopranos Last Supper. We're both fans of the show. I think it would be great fun. And wow, the Haunted Vegas Tour would be amazing!  I'd also love to see Mamma Mia. I've always been a huge fan of ABBA.  For more laughs and fun I'd really enjoy seeing Roseanne Barr. I remember her career when it first started and I believe I'd laugh just as hard to see her today.  And, to condense the magic of Vegas, I'd have to see Legends In Concert. It would be a mini trip of decades of talent, brought to us by impersonators.  Catt  Alexander  Spartanburg SC

My dream Las Vegas Vacation took place this January where we stayed at the Four Seasons. The check in on a two-story level veranda, however you luxuriate upon the top floors of the Mandalay Bay Resort. The ocean pool with waves, private cabanas with phone, t.v., refridgerator and cot with matress and private curtain was most memorable.  Best bets for a great visit are the top of the Stratosphere look out deck, the Eifle Tower at the Paris and don't forget a gondola ride at the fabulous Venetian.  Taxi downtown to old Las Vegas any evening and enjoy the enclosed Freemont Street festival of lights, don't forget to stop by the Golden Nugget Hotel for some real good luck and see the High Rollers playing poker and Bacarrat for high stakes. Food, buffet, buffet, buffet, must do's are Ceasar's Palace, MGM Grand and 24 hours a day service at the Holiday Inn Showboat.  Ted Sawicki  Los Angeles CA

My Vegas dream starts when a limo is outside my door in Nashville. I kiss my kids goodbye and me and my wife are off to the airport.  Steve Wynn has arranged a private plane to fly us to Vegas. After we land in Vegas we take another short limo ride to the Wynn. The conscierge tells us they arranged lunch at the Wynn Steakhouse. After a relaxing lunch we go shopping at the shops. I buy a new Rolex and my wife gets a Chanel watch and new Louie Vutton Bag. I decided I needed to drop $3000 on a new Vertu cell phone.  I used my new phone to get tickets to go see Stomp. We had some time to kill so we rushed to Cesars Forum Shops and picked up some new outfits to wear. I was starving so we went to the Bellagio and ate Kobi Steaks at Sensei.  The show was fantastic and retired to our suite at the Wynn but not before booking some hot stone massages the next morning. Then we relaxed by the pool. After some relaxing R&R we went to see the new Palazzo. It blew us away but all that walking made us hungry again. I felt like good seafood so we grabbed a limo and went to the new Red Rock. We loved the decor and it's location looking out at the red rock on the mountains. But we we're hungry so we went to Hachi for some Sushi. After we ate we went back to the suite and took a nap. I then got on my new phone and got tickets for Blue Man Group. We had some time to kill so we went down and test drove a Maserati. The trip was turning out great full of five star dining, shows and relaxation. But since this is my dream vacation something great happened when I was checking out. I was getting readty to leave when I said what the heck and dropped a dollar into a megabucks machine. Jackpot!  david Dubbs  las vegas TN

My Las Vegas dream would be fast and simple.  After arriving by private jet, we proceed to the casino and win a cool 10million.  on the way out the door I had out thousands of dollars to people who look like they have been losing.  Get back into the limo, back to the airport and home with my net 5 million.  Not a bad afternoon in Vegas.  Dennis Northrup  Chicago, IL
