Fontainebleau Las Vegas

A sense of the place

Fontainebleau Las Vegas finally opened on December 13, 2023, after one of the longest waits in Strip history. Construction started in 2007 and stalled in 2009, leaving a half-built blue tower on the North Strip for more than a decade. Today it is a 67-story resort with 3,644 rooms and suites, often described as the tallest occupied building in Nevada.

It stands at 2777 Las Vegas Blvd S on the east side of the North Strip, with Resorts World across the boulevard, Wynn and Encore to the south and SAHARA to the north. The Las Vegas Convention Center's West Hall is right behind it. It is run by Fontainebleau Development, the company behind the original Fontainebleau in Miami Beach.

Fontainebleau suits travellers who want something new and polished, a big pool scene and Miami-style nightlife, or who are in town for a convention. The trade-off is location: it is a long walk from the center Strip, so plan on rides for most of your sightseeing.

What to look for

• LIV and LIV Beach: the Miami nightclub's Las Vegas home, plus a dayclub on the pool deck.

• The Oasis pool deck: about six acres with several pools, including adults-only areas.

• BleauLive Theater: a three-level venue for up to about 3,800 people, used for concerts and comedy.

• Lapis Spa & Wellness: a 55,000-square-foot, two-level spa.

• Dining: about three dozen bars and restaurants opened with the resort, including Komodo, Papi Steak, Don's Prime and Mother Wolf.

• The holiday ice rink: a real-ice rink on the Oasis pool deck returns from November 19, 2026 to January 17, 2027. See our Las Vegas at Christmas guide.

Before you go

• Use the free Vegas Loop. Fontainebleau has its own Vegas Loop station on level V-1 of the south valet, reached from the South Lobby. Rides to the Convention Center stations, Encore and Westgate have been free from here. Check current routes on the resort's website.

• Plan rides to the center Strip. It is a long walk to Caesars Palace or Bellagio. The Deuce bus, rideshare or a taxi is quicker. The nearest Monorail stops are Westgate and the Convention Center; see our Las Vegas Monorail guide.

• Resort fee: about $55 per night plus tax in 2026, covering Wi-Fi, self-parking, pools and the gym. Check the current amount when you book.

• Parking: self-parking is free for hotel guests. Visitors get the first hour free, then pay a daily rate, and valet costs extra. Check current rates.

• Check-in and check-out: 3 p.m. and 11 a.m.

• From the airport: Fontainebleau is in taxi Zone 3, a flat fare of $29.25 plus fees in 2026. See our airport to the Strip guide.
