It's amazing. I know that kid...he/his parents follow us around in Vegas...they eat in the same restaurants us, same time as us...amazing.

Poor kid.
I appreciate the view of a kid free Vegas and I assure you that we don't drag our child down the strip and through the casinos like many we have seen. (after all, I'm a PERFECT parent, its all those others that are wrong!) I am in the belief that under a certain age a child can be brought to Vegas and entertained en-suite without anyone being bothered. But, for us anyway, I think 4 to 21 is a "no-go" age. SO, we will most likely have to wait for the grandparents schedule to free up. I think by next summer she will be to old to be contented in a hotel suite no matter how many books and toys she has at hand or how long she gets to spend at the pool.

And thanks for the recomendation of Newport Beach but we already live here :-)
Then go to Hawai'i, fercrissake!!! lol

Don't be put off the my-Vegas/screw-the-kids crowd. You seem to get it. You just need the "right" property. And season. Good luck!

Yeah, that was our second "last minute" idea but our little plane doesn't have that kinda range and the Hawai'i hotels won't comp us.

Actually, last week I received an e-blast about last-minute Hawai'i flights for sub-$300 r/t.
Allow me to join the chorus of those advising you, begging you to leave the kids at home. One of the best articles I've ever read about this was from the English blogger who spent a month staying in a different Vegas hotel every night. His comments were stinging, but right on target...

Well, that article was very............British.

Actually, we have decided to go. It seems that I have been invited to a game at the Bellagio on Friday. But don't worry, Mr. Carr and yourself will never see my child. Even the most persistant paparazzi would be hard pressed to catch a glimpse.
You will not have to worry about us spoiling your time at the airport baggage claim or taxi line as we fly into AGT. Nor will you see us at the hotel check-in line since we have been invited by friends to stay in a villa. And since I would NEVER take my child out on the strip, or even Freemont st. much less a show, casino or god forbid, a bar. (really, there was a child in a bar?) you need not worry about having to curtail your language. That said you might think about your language in the possible presense of ladies and or gentlemen.
Now, there was the chance of you having to be exposed to a toddler at the pool during the late morning early afternoon. I was going to say that you would simply have to tough it out and behave yourself or go to an "adult" themed pool. But, lucky for Mr. Carr, we are told that the villa has a private heated patio with an oversized hot tub. Entertainment delima solved!!
Our friends have even volunteered to stay with our child and give my wife and I a night out together. But don't worry about any higher education or nest egg jeopardy, that was all taken care of long ago.

We are really looking forward to this. We have always stayed in nice places and nice suites but this will be over the top.
Sounds like we talked you into it, next thing your going to say is " they aren't even getting off the plane "
