From elegant decor reminiscent of the famous Monaco playground to top-name entertainment, the Monte Carlo Resort & Casino offers visitors a taste of all that is Las Vegas.

The business and pleasure traveler may enjoy many amenities including the excitement captured in the 90,000 square foot casino featuring state-of-the-art slot and video poker machines, plenty of exciting table games, meeting facilities, a wide variety of dining establishments and entertainment by world-renowned magician Lance Burton.

The more exclusive amenities would not be complete without the full-service spa, extensive fitness room and a luxurious pool area.

Overall, the Monte Carlo is a good resort to utilize if you have children that enjoy having fun and you as an adult want to experience Vegas simultaneously.

The casino offers single zero roulette that makes your odds of losing smaller and they have a nice sized poker room. Obviously they offer all other casino games. If you’re looking for double deck Blackjack you will have to bet a bit more, $25 a hand for that luxury.

Join the “One Club” and you can enjoy benefits at more than one casino. The pools, a wave pool, a lagoon pool, a kiddie pool and a river ride. The Spa for stress release, Swedish massage, facials, body exfoliation, aroma therapy and a workout.

Spacious rooms that offer great views of the pool or the strip in a comfortable decor.

The Monte Carlo Brew pub doubles as a great sports bar, but I found the beer a bit lacking in taste.  The Monte Carlo street of dreams shopping area offers cigars, beers, magic and clothing.
