Located just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, the JW Marriott Las Vegas and Rampart Casino resort complex recently completed a $75 million multi-year renovation in the hotel, conference center, casino, spa and restaurants. The resort offers an upscale, modern Mediterranean desert oasis, nestled in the heart of Summerlin, a luxury master planned golf and shopping district near the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. The AAA 4-Diamond property offers a stunning yet peaceful retreat that’s both near the action but worlds away from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas. A full-service resort, its amenities include nine restaurants, a world-class spa, an 11,000 square foot waterfall pool as well as over 110,000 square feet of flexible indoor & outdoor meeting and event space. Connected to the resort is Rampart Casino, an elevated Vegas-style gaming experience that features over 1,400 state-of-the-art slot machines, a 300-seat Bingo Room, 32 table games such as Blackjack, Craps with 10X odds, Roulette, Face-Up Pai Gow Poker, and more.
