Rooms are very dated, heavy, dark furnishings and window coverings. Comfortable enough though. Parking is well lighted and plentiful. Pool area is definitely the "highlight"! Very nice, and we spent many pleasant hours there. Pool is advertised to be 83 degrees, but is much cooler than that. Spa is excellent though. We were a bit disappointed in the maintenance however. High-end gas BBQ's are furnished in the pool complex, but of the four provided, only two were functioning properly (not sure why this isn't rectified?). Upon arriving we found a dirty towel on the sofa and a couple dirty hand towels in the bathroom, probably an anomaly, but not a good first impression. Took a couple tries to finally get a TV remote replaced. Message light on the phones do not function, so better check messages frequently. I am concerned that the GFI's are not wired correctly?, but maintenance didn't seem concerned. My advice, be careful. Even though this resort is miles from the "Strip" (part of its allure), you'll discover that the 215 freeway makes access very painless and relatively quick (especially to/from the airport). You're only minutes from Red Rock Canyon, so make sure you visit!!! All-in-all, we will stay here again. Overall, a very pleasant experience.

What a gem! Off the strip with full accomodations for weary travelers. So relaxing we stayed an extra day! Recommended for families and those who enjoy visiting the strip but not staying there (it is way off the strip). Surrounded by many conveniences.

The weather was really nice this week (March 22-29)....low 70's. The condos here are very nice, clean and quiet. The staff is very friendly and they don't bug you with the timeshare presentation. They were very appreciative of any soft paperbacks. I did leave a few in the TV room and noticed that they got picked up very quickly. There's a pool table and also a few computers/printer in the business center. There's a time limit of 15 minutes with each log-in. If there aren't any people waiting in line than you can log-in over and over again. I didn't have any problems with this and stayed there for 40 minutes. If you have your own laptop there's another room for wireless access. The pool is very clean and so is the jacuzzi. The exercise room is nice too but my son wished they had some free weights.

The condos are located very close to Albertson's, Target, JC Penny's and a few other stores and restaurants. We drove down Flamingo Rd to get to the Strip. We didn't have much traffic so it was quite easy to get back and forth. You can self park at any of the hotels on the strip at no charge.

One of our favorite restaurants was Bahama Breeze on Flamingo Rd.. This place has the best appetizers and drinks. They have the biggest plate of onion rings I have ever seen. We also liked Paymon's on W. Sahara and Byblos Cafe on Flamingo Rd. Paymon's is fancier and has great kabobs. The portions of kabobs are quite big.. Byblo's is a small cafe in a corner strip mall...it's not fancy but their hummos, falafals and their freshly made bread is excellent. Their baklava is really good too.

We did some shopping at the Outlet stores. The Las Vegas Premium Outlets is newer and nicer than the Las Vegas Outlet Center. We hit all the Nike outlets (there's one in Primm too) and found some great deals on Jordon shirts/shorts.

The Bass Pro Shop is awesome. My 15 year son who hates shopping stayed there for over an hour going over all the fishing lures. They have a really good selection of hard baits as well as soft baits....good colors too. If you are a bass fishermen this is the place to drool.

We drove to the Grand Canyon.. the west rim. There is a 12 -14 mile dirt road prior to getting to the Canyon. It is quite bumpy but the scenery is beautiful. We were surrounded by joshua trees and some were in bloom. Once there we had to pay $20 for parking and additional $30 per person for the bus.They have additional tickets for helicopters, meal tickets, etc. We were a bit disappointed because the bus only drops you off at 2 vistapoints. We heard that on the south rim there are 7 vistapoints.

One other note... if your kids are into basketball... there are some outside courts on Durango Dr... (go north of Flamingo Rd) the kids playing on this court are older but my son got a really good work-out. He was there 3 nights and at one point he said there was over 60 kids....pick-up games, etc. The kids play pretty late at night.

We had a nice stay at the Cliffs. The rooms were clean and the people were nice and friendly. It was very peacful and we felt safe there with the security. The only thing we did not like was there was almost no hot water pressure. I would recomend renting a car when staying here because it is about twenty minutes from the strip and sometimes you could see a lot of people waiting for the shuttle. There are some good resturants nearby too.
