Analysis
For all of you who voted for the Palms -- the clear winner and a natural choice -- we have good news: We just revealed the contents of the new LVA Member Rewards Book and this year's offers include the much-loved 50% (up to $50) at the Palms, which you can put to all kinds of sexy uses... There are great discounts for our members at Planet Hollywood and Red Rock, too, so be sure to check out the whole list of sexy savings your $37 membership buys.
And, as always, here are some of the comments and "other" picks you kindly sent in:
- "I noticed Bellagio was not on your list. WOW. The Bellagio is always full of gorgeous people, trendy dressers, and the sexiest of just about everything and anyone. Going there makes me want to look and feel my best. It is full of beauty and sexiness, but not JUST sexiness - which is VERY sexy."
- "The sexiest resort is... . . . .is Red Rock. Awesome scenery, amazing service, hip crowd, and a little different since it is off the Strip."
- "I'm old, so what is sexy to me might not be sexy to you. A downtown hotel with a good buffet, good TV, and a room close to the elevator, now that turns me on." [Ed: Ha! Sweet.]
- "Wynn! I can't believe that wasn't even an option in the poll. It is a beautiful property with wonderful amenities."
- "I chose Palms because (from the male point of view) of the eye candy that frequents the place. And because they try so hard to be the C + S resort. But as far as staff goes, it's hard to overlook Wynn. Their cocktail waitresses are movie-star-gorgeous in slightly sinful outfits and generally their help is pretty in cool, helpful ways."
- "The Silver Nugget. From its soggy nachos to the bowling alley that smells of ancient cigarette smoke and vaguely of suntan lotion (particularly inexplicable given the demographics of this resort's clientele), the Silver Nugget exudes sexiness like nowhere else." [Ed: HA!]
- "Mandalay Bay: They have the greatest feather beds."
- "The Monte Carlo was hot was hot because you could hear the people in the next room; I'm sure the people all the way down the other end of the hall could hear them too. Think about that next time you get laid at the Monte Carlo!"
- "Caesars gets my vote. Is there a hotter nightclub in town than PURE? What could be sexier than a blackjack pit called "Pussy Cat Dolls" featuring scantily clad dealers and two hot stripper-pole dancers? The game sucks, but who cares."
- "To me, "sexy" for a resort is defined by quiet elegance and solicitous treatment, not an onslaught of body parts live and in print. Additionally, as casinos go, the fewer little children in tow the better. Thus, my vote for Green Valley Ranch as the sexiest resort."
- "Sexiest resort? Depends on the time of year... NOW, probably the Rio...because the servers don't wear anything!I n the summer...the Hard Rock, because there are girls in thong bikinis going through the casino!!!"
- "Rio's 'Parade in the Sky' with its scantilly clad maidens jumps to the top of my list."
- "I think Wynn is the sexiest. The Palazzo and Venetian would be 2 and 3. The clubs at the Palms could be the sexiest clubs. I went to Wynn to get their club card and then walked back thought Palazzo and Venetian. Those three are spectacular. I thought, 'I've got to bring my girlfriend down here. We can't afford to shop but it looks nice.' I then drove over to the Palms, where I gamble the most, and it looked like a dump.'
