Fontainbleau Las Vegas

I just spent the most beautiful weekend at Fontainebleau here in Las Vegas and have to tell you all about it! Vegas recommendations are among my top questions and I plan on sharing more of my go-to spots since I am lucky enough to call this place home. I may even have a special surprise coming up soon…

I have stayed at Fontainebleau in Miami, and although it’s been a while, I already knew I would love the Vegas property. Fontainebleau is such a high-end, luxury brand with stunning restaurants and amazing amenities, so I knew we were in for a treat. However, the overall experience exceeded my expectations. It is truly an amazing property to stay at, whether you’re visiting Vegas or just doing a staycation like we did.

CHECKING IN: We arrived a bit before 3 p.m. on Friday and went to the check-in counter. We were kindly informed that we were VIP guests and were escorted to the VIP check-in room, which was a fabulous way to start our trip! We sat down, had a glass of champagne, were checked in by the sweetest staff member, and informed that our room was ready. We stayed in the Gold Room, and Fontainebleau was kind enough to give me a link to share with you for up to 35% off your stay HERE. So nice of them! I might just use it myself for another stay soon 😉

SHOPPING: After getting unpacked and settled I went out to explore the hotel and do a little shopping. There are so many stunning designer stores like Saint Laurent, Bottega, Gucci and more continuing to open. I wandered around the hotel for quite a while and ended up at the cutest store on the 2nd floor called ORA. I bought some YSL sunglasses and fell in love with a metal and pearl purse that I may have to go back for at some point 😉 After I finished shopping I grabbed a coffee at Café Cutò which was 10/10 and highly recommend.

BACK TO THE ROOM: I grabbed one more glass of champagne in the VIP check-in area before heading back upstairs to get ready. I absolutely loved this amenity. Everyone was so incredibly kind and helpful and I genuinely felt like they wanted to do everything they could so we could have a memorable stay. There are also little cookies, waters and other drinks available to VIP guests here. When I got back up to the room there was a nice card made out to Roman and me, and box of chocolates (the way to my heart). I turned on some music and got ready to head to dinner at KYU…

DINNER: We went to KYU for dinner which I have heard of since they have locations in New York and Miami but this was my first time dining here. I loved the vibe of the restaurant and the music they played – upbeat, fun, a little dark and moody. Think wood-fired cuisine with an asian flair. We ordered the burrata, bone marrow (Roman’s favorite), pork belly bao buns, Wagyu rib cap, broccoli and ended with their famous cinnamon roll for dessert. It is a MUST so make sure to save room for that. Everything was incredible and we will definitely go back at some point.

Fontainbleau has over 35 restaurants and bars and I can’t wait to come back and try more of them. Currently Papi Steak and Komodo are on the top of my list. I also can’t recommend Mother Wolf enough. I have been several times and is one of my favorite Italian spots in Vegas. It is so pretty inside, the food is amazing and it just gives me all the good Italy feels.

NOWHERE LOUNGE: After dinner, and a little time on the casino floor, we went to this incredible, not so secret, speakeasy called NoWhere Lounge. I got an espresso martini which I haven’t had in probably 6 years but I was just feeling the vibes that night. We listened to live music, talked, laughed, took some cute photos and had the best time! This place was absolutely my vibe. There’s just something about live music that makes my night.

After a few hours at NoWhere we went back to the room to unwind and go to bed. This is my ideal night out but If you’re looking to have a late night and go to a club I would definitely recommend going to LIV. My 24 year old self would’ve closed this place down 🙂 Take a shot and say hi to Sergio for me!

BRUNCH: We slept in a bit which was so nice and once we got ready we headed to La Fontaine for brunch which is on the second floor of the hotel. This French Inspired restaurant is absolutely stunning! Flowers everywhere, arches over the bench seat, beautiful bar and the uniforms were pink shirts. Perfection. I got eggs, avocado, sourdough toast and a green juice and Roman and I shared the soufflé pancakes which were like little fluffy sweet clouds. 10/10.

SPA: We had to see the spa during our stay so we booked at 60 minute couples massage post brunch. Lapis Spa was the 2024 World Spa Awards recipient of World’s Best Casino Hotel Spa & Nevada’s Best Hotel Spa so we knew we were in for a treat! The spa amenities were just incredible. Sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, sauna, snow shower, cold plunge, eucalyptus room, and there is even a stargazing room where you can just lay and relax in the dark and the ceiling twinkles like stars – just beautiful. The co-ed space is actually very big with just as many amenities which I loved since we were there as a couple. Our massages were great – Roman even fell asleep during it which is a tell-tale sign it was amazing.

We had such a wonderful stay and I am so incredibly appreciative to Fontainbleau and their team for inviting us to experience such a great property. I can’t wait to hopefully enjoy the pool this summer – it looked stunning from our room!
