Fodor's choice
The Discovery Channel show American Casino popularized this low-key, refined place beloved by the high-end crowd, who nonetheless prefers style over bustle (the Strip is a 20-minute drive away). Vineyards and a pool-outdoor nightclub with distant views of the Strip make it oh-so-sophisticated. Spacious rooms have cherrywood furniture, plush chairs, and beds with down comforters. There's a slew of both fine and casual restaurants and shops.
"Now, for all our heartfelt rhapsodizing above about the Ritz, do not think that we love Green Valley any less. It's not fair to this flat-out fabulous resort to compare the two -- they can't quite compete on the same playing field because Green Valley doesn't have the same pedigree as the Ritz, nor does it have the knockout physical positioning on the lake. But it makes up for that with earnest efforts and slightly lower prices (plus it's about half the distance to the Strip, which is visible from the pool area), and if you can't stay at the one, you won't be unhappy staying at the other. Two different experiences, but each will make you feel like a resort should. Anyway, it seems that Green Valley's designers took careful notes on places like the Ritz-Carlton when coming up with their design -- the interiors, rooms and public spaces both, feel completely influenced by the same, while the exterior pool area borrowed much from hip hotel concepts such as the Standard and the W. This sounds like a potentially risky combination, but it works smashingly. You can stay here with your parents or your kids, and every age group should be happy."
