VEGAS VACATIONS

Written by Haitham A.

Whether you’re going on vacation by yourself, with the love of your life, or alongside your family, Las Vegas has plenty of getaways that can accommodate you. In fact, this even extends to you and your fellow travelers’ preferences, including those who like the outdoors, are enthusiastic about local restaurants, and/or simply want to relax at the spa.

Without further ado, here are three vacation getaways that are suitable for each of individual travelers, couples, and families.

Amangiri

This secluded, yet amenity-rich, resort is a perfect romantic getaway for couples who appreciate the outdoors and, at the same time, want to enjoy luxury-style facilities.

Located in Canyon Point, Utah, you can get to Amangiri by car or plane. It takes just over 4 hours to drive there from the Las Vegas Strip, and the route is filled with beautiful scenes and views. You may also fly into the Page Municipal Airport, which is half an hour away from Amangiri by car.

What makes this luxury facility a great vacation getaway is that it’s suitable for couples with all types of preferences. Those who are enthusiastic about the outdoors can access 12 miles of designated hiking trails either by themselves or alongside an experienced guide. The Grand Canyon and Zion National Park are nearby, as well. Moreover, visitors may ride jet-skis, kayaks, and boats on Lake Powell and discover the scenic Colorado plateau on a horse.

Looking for fine dining, instead? Amangiri offers a lot of options and menu choices, too. The Amangiri dining room, which specializes in Native American flavors, is open for lunch, breakfast, and dinner. At the Camp Sarika restaurant, couples can pick from a selection of local and seasonal meals.

For romantic meals in the outdoors, consider the scenic Desert Lounge for a quiet dinner with your significant other. If you prefer to eat while you enjoy music and entertainment, Amangiri’s Chinle Site is the place to be.

Lastly, but certainly not least, are the resort’s spa and wellness facilities. At the Amana Spa, you may engage in Hózhó healing, yoga on the rocks, and/or grounding rituals while you admire the breathtaking view of the American Canyon Country.

In short, whether you appreciate local dining, connecting with mother nature, or improving your wellness, Amangiri is a perfect romantic getaway.

Bootleg Canyon

Traveling solo this summer? In that case, Bootleg Canyon might be the place to be. In this natural area, you can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities and adventures, ranging from biking routes to zip lines. For that matter, you

could even relax and grab some food at one of the hotels that surround it.

Bootleg Canyon is a great vacation getaway because it’s only a 30-minute drive away from the Strip. Additionally, several hotels that are right by the area have very affordable prices.

If you want to hike or ride your bike, you may access more than 36 miles of designated trails. The elevated routes are designed for seasoned bike riders, while the lower ones are suitable for beginners.

Do you prefer gazing at natural views instead of riding a bike? Bootleg Canyon is still a great choice for a vacation getaway. At the top of the mountain, you may grab a spot and take in the scenes of the Las Vegas Valley and Lake Mead. To get there, you could either hike your way up the mountain or, alternatively, hop on a shuttle. To top it all off, you can join a ziplining tour group. This allows you to both go on an adventure and admire the beautiful Bootleg Canyon.

The LINQ Promenade

Looking for some family-friendly fun on the Las Vegas Strip? Look no further than the LINQ Promenade. This all-in-one facility has everything, including a hotel, restaurants, shopping centers, and even ziplines.

As long as they bring their jackets with them, your kids will certainly have a great time visiting the Ice Bar. This area’s walls, seats, and even glasses are made out of ice. You can have a cold alcoholic drink while your kids play with 100 tons of ice and sip on one of the juices from the children’s mocktail menu.

Alternatively, you could bring the entire family along for a ride on the 500-feet tall High Roller wheel. For a more daring adventure, hop on the FLY LINQ zipline and take in an aerial view of the Strip while you’re 1,080 feet in the air. If high elevations isn’t your thing, put on some goggles and virtually zipline your way around the strip through the LINQ’s VR Adventures, which also offers other virtual video games.

Apart from that, you can find all that you and your family need at the LINQ Promenade’s shopping area. For a start, the kids will certainly

get blown away by the LINQ’s two-floor sweets and candy shop, I LOVE SUGAR. Moreover, you may shop for clothing and accessories, buy gifts for your loved ones at home, and pick between various restaurants.

Simply put, there’s something for everyone in the family at the LINQ Promenade.

Similarly, solo travelers and couples can find a variety of outdoors adventures, relaxing activities, and scenic spots at Bootleg Canyon and the Amangiri, respectively.

In short, regardless of who you’re traveling with and what you like to do, these three vacation getaways are worth visiting this summer.
