JW MARRIOTT LAS VEGAS RESORT

Located in Summerlin, Nev., the JW Marriott Las Vegas Resort is pleasantly removed from the noise and crowds of the Strip 10 miles away. But guests shouldn't think they're away from the bright lights: a complimentary shuttle ferries them to and from the Strip throughout the day. In addition, the resort is four miles from breathtaking Red Rock Canyon. The 50,000 square foot casino features 1,200 slot, video poker, keno machines, table games and sports book. But there are plenty of non gaming recreation. Guests can play at immaculately manicured Angel Park Legacy, Badlands and the TPC Summerlin golf courses close to the hotel, relax by the hotel's two outdoor swimming pools, or get pampered at Aquae Sulis Spa with 36 treatment rooms, mud bath spas and exercise room. Guestrooms feature contemporary furnishings, ceiling fans, arched hallways, oversized jetted tubs, brass raindrop showers and high speed Internet. Guests can gaze out their windows and drink in the marvelous views of the mountains, gardens, cityscape or golf course. The hungry can pick from among eight food and beverage outlets, ranging from a cigar bar to contemporary fine dining. Their choices include Ceres, with its American cuisine
