Loews Lake Las Vegas Resort

Spent a week at Lowes for a meeting and the hotel was great! Didn't get to use the pools but took a walk around and they looked great!

Service and food was great throughout my time there (except the 24 hour resturant which was pretty much all pre-made food and fruit cups). Rooms where clean and well maintained, along with the rest of the hotel.

Bartenders and waitresses where very nice and fun to talk to... the drinks where well made too!

Here are the drawbacks however. Way too far from the city ($90-$100 cab fair)! They have a shuttle but it runs only 2 times a day at wierd times (who wants to come home from Vegas at 11:00pm?). The local "town" should be call the local "ghost town" because there is no body there. They will give a free shuttle to another local hotel so you can gamble but it is all video... including blackjack and other card games. I don;t know about you, but I don't trust video blackjack games and everybody in our group lost!

The other let down is that they closed the golf course. It was sad to see a yellow, dying course just sitting there!

In review... great place to get away at a good price as long as you do not want to gamble or play golf (or see many other people)!

ok-
This was a good place for kids. The rooms are dated and pricey compared to newer hotels in vegas. Lots of things to do during the day. Nothing really to do at night.

We were there the first weekend that they transitioned to "Westin Lake Las Vegas"
The Westin Lake Las Vegas is for one group of people. You are in this group if you have the following:
-kids
-love of water
-love of the outside
-doesn't do anything in the room but sleep
As long as you meet all of those requirements, then this resort is for you. If it rains, like it did on the second day of our trip, then you are screwed. There is nothing to do besides the pools and lake and the activities on the lake. Luckily, the Las Vegas strip is 30 minutes away, so we ditched the good ole soggy lake and hit the casino.
Now I am not the type to stay away from the room. I want my room to have a garden bath tub, a view and lots of space. The Westin is none of these. Our room was small, dark, dirty and old. And we paid extra to have this room. Yeah.....like I said we ditched it after 1 night.....not just because of the rain. There were so many mosquitoes in the room that I had to stand on the bed with a wad of toilet paper and kill them. I didn't succeed in getting all of them which resulted in many bites in the morning. The rooms should come with a mosquito net. Also, I'm only 5'6....I shouldn't be able to stand on a full bed and reach the ceiling...but I guess I didn't mention the drop ceiling in our tiny room. The lake and the activities are nice, I would have liked to take the kids down to the lake for the fire and s'mores, but it's not worth the dirty room. I would rather stay in a tent.

There are no words that can express the gratitude i feel towards this amazing resort!

I got married here about 6 months ago and every time I look back at on my special day - I couldn't imagine it being anywhere else!

Loews is by far the most perfect venue for a wedding or even a quick getaway! It really is a paradise in the desert....

Charlie(Charlotte) and Alison were our conference manager and they are the BEST!! Not exaggerating but they really are!!! Without them, our wedding wouldn't have been as perfect as it was!

We had our wedding rehearsal dinner at Rick's Cafe, it was SOOOOO delicious! Everyone who attended said they felt like they having a wedding meal! Better than some of the weddings they've been to! I would have to agree! It was a great way to start off the wedding weekend! A lot of our guests enjoyed having the breakfast buffet the morning of the wedding here as well.

Now, if you ever cant decide on all the meal options when it comes to the wedding menu... CHOOSE THE STATION BUFFET!!!! You will not regret it! Everyone left our wedding feeling sooo satisfied and it was definitely one of the raves! The venue even made a specialty wedding drink for us as well - Merry Me Midori Sour!

Not only are they accommodating with their wedding services, by also with ALL other services! My zipper came apart a few days before the wedding and my husband I were scheduled to do a pre wedding photo shoot. Sure enough, the resort had their on call seamstress sew me into my gown!!!!!! It was AWESOME!!!

Everyone fears and talks about how stressful a bride can be on her special day. Thanks to the Loews, Charlie and Allison - I truly and honestly can say that I felt nothing more than a blissful bride! They truly took cared of everything! Placing the menu cards, programs, favors etc... EVERYTHING!

All and All, The Loews is the best thing that we could've done for our wedding.. After six months, every memory from our wedding are still so vivid!! Thank you thank you and thank you!!!

Wow! What a find. This place is great for families. The pool kept our kids busy for days. My son loved the water slides, putting greens, canoes... you name it, this place had it. My wife and I would stayed for another week if we could. Our kids were so happy here.

The rooms were nicely decorated in a North African theme.

Located off of the strip, this resort is a reflection of the great deals you can find in Vegas these days. There isn't any gambling nearby, but who cares when you can land at a five-star resort for under $100.

mega desert oasis resort......luxurious...clean....refreshing getaway resort with a view of the vegas strip....located about 17 miles from the strip....ultimate spa treatment....18 hole golf.....fishing...kayaks..boating..or even a lake mead cruise....pools and cabanas.....this is a change from my typical vegas strip business trip.....

the biggest surprise?....no casino...no gambling...no smell of smoke in the air....it's relaxation and serenitity in vegas....but....little disappointing for me....since...i'm fond of cards and wagers....

I spent over a month at this location and it is an oasis in the middle of the desert. There isn't a casino in this hotel and mainly the pool and lake are the main activities here. They also host many conferences and workshops and have multiple meeting rooms of various sizes. The food and bar options are decent but nothing outstanding. There is a casino and small shopping "village" at one of the nearby hotels but it never seemed crowded in this area so if you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the strip then this might be the sanctuary your looking for. Personally I found this area to be pretty boring after a few days but it would be a nice spot for families with children.

My review is really more like 3.5 stars, but as that is not an option, I'll be generous and round up.

I stayed here for almost a week when my company hosted an event here. The pictures on the website got me excited since it looked gorgeous. In real life, while the hotel is definitely nice and beautifully decorated, the surrounding area is a ghost town. Lake Las Vegas was built during the last stages of the real estate boom and as such was the first to fall. Gorgeous vacant homes are surrounded by brown, dying, bankrupt golf courses. There is a little "village" of shops nearby that was completely empty of shoppers and restaurant patrons on a saturday night. The casino down the road has closed as well. So, while Loews is very pretty and richly laid out, it's a bit like the one live flower in a field of dying ones.

Surrounding area aside, the place is huge and the service is good. The restaurants have great (albeit pricey) food, which is good because they're going to be your only options unless you want to drive outside of the entire Lake Las Vegas area into Henderson. The bar closed super early as well, so I managed to get plenty of sleep!

Overall I had a good experience, but unless I was specifically looking for a secluded, no night life vacation, I would not come to stay here outside of business.

I just returned home after staying here Friday - Sunday night for my fiance's yearly work retreat. I must stay I was really excited to stay here after perusing through the website, yet although the place was still very nice, it also seemed a bit of a let down. The bed however was very comfy (thank goodness since I spent one whole day sleeping) and the room nice with two flat screen tv's and a mini Keurig coffee maker. They also have a fridge and YAY 24-hour room service. Although the room service food didn't blow me away (cheeseburger) it was pretty tasty and OH MY GOSH THE PICKLE!!! It was like a mini canoe and I happily chowed away on it; a meal in itself.

The grounds were nice and spread out just enough without being ridiculous. I had breakfast at Rick's Cafe this morning and had a great bagel and lox. My only complaint is that they have attack birds, so should you choose to accept your mission of eating outside, bring a weapon. THEY DO NOT FEAR YOU.

As someone who generally despises LV it was nice to stay somewhere smoke and drama free. It is a good $60/30-45 minute cab ride to the strip however, so if you're planning on going for a show or anything, be mindful of travel time.

I would've loved to have checked out the spa, but apparently my interests in sleeping outweighed the ability to pick up the phone and schedule anything that required me leaving the room.

Beautiful resort in the middle of the Vegas desert!

Stayed here two nights (mostly because we were traveling with a pet and they were pet friendly).

The rooms were well-appointed. Not exactly the "luxury" I'd expected from the description on the website, but still very nice. Very clean. Bedding was good, soft,

Our room opened onto a small terrace with a view over gardens and a small lake. Absolutely beautiful. Very relaxing.

The staff was very friendly and quite accomodating.

We didn't dine here -- we went into Las Vegas both nights. We did pick up breakfast in the little breakfast bar (kind of a Starbucks type place) and took it out on huge veranda which has several fountains and multiple levels. Lots of cushioned chairs, tables with umbrellas, even beds to lounge in. Fabulously decadent!

Beware of:
1) $22/day resort fee. RIP OFF!! It's a joke.
2) $15/day valet park. Don 't do it. Valet parking is literally one row away from self- park. Save yourself $15.00/day.
3) If you are drining into to Vegas to shop or dine (whatever), allow a minimum of 30 miniutes (more like 45 if it's in the evening, especially near rush hour). Staff told us it was 15-20 minutes, but was actually 40-45 each night with traffic.

Value for money: 3/5. Great if you want true relaxation, peace and solitude and want to be away from the stress of "The Strip."

It's a bit of a hassle going back into Vegas to eat or go to shows, but really nice to come back to a quiet, relaxing hotel -- with no smoke, no noise, and no drunks.

They'd probably get a full 4 out of 5 if they dropped the ridiculous $22 a day resort fee, valet parking fee. We had a fridge in our room but it didn't seem to work. What's the point then?

Pet friendly: 4 stars!!!

I'd have to stay again and see some of the other rooms to give a real objective opinion, but based on these two nights I could recommend trying Loews for a get-away from the noise of the Strip especially if you have a pet with you.
