Some Father's Day gift Ideas!


A Suite Stay
Boys love their toys, no matter what age, so stay at HOTEL32 at Monte Carlo where dad can order room service via iPhone, watch sports from a whirlpool tub on the television integrated into the bathroom mirror, connect with the concierge via an iPod touch and change the room’s settings and electronics with a convenient remote system. Best of all, the suites come complete with exclusive access to a dedicated Suite Assistant, who provides butler and concierge services throughout the stay.

The Perfect Gift
The Jeff Mitchum Gallery at Bellagio is filled with the fine art photographer’s treasures from around the world and the renowned artist personally suggests giving dad an image taken in that will be timeless for generations to come; Sacred Bay in black and white. The classic image of Makena Beach in Maui has not yet been released to the public and can only be purchased by visiting or contacting the gallery, making this gift not only a great investment for a money-minded father, but also exclusive.

Take a walk through The Shoppes at Mandalay Place and let dad pick out a gift from Nike Golf, the only Nike Golf store in the country.  At his next tee time, dad can show off his new Tiger Woods Collection golf shirt or walk out of the store the same day in his favorite color golf shoes that normally can only be ordered online; both gifts start at just $75. While perusing shops, be sure to check out the Las Vegas Sock Market, Elton’s Men’s Store, Suite 160 and Flip Flop Shops.

For once, make dad smile when he receives a tie for Father’s Day.  Stop by Crystals at City Center and pick out a collectible “Lucky Tie” at Hermès for $195.  These heavy silk, hand-folded ties feature four different designs including playing cards and are meant to bring luck and distinction to its owner.

BBQ and Steaks
For the ideal blend of casual sophistication, take dad to the ultimate BBQ – the one-day-only Father’s Day Epicurean Epicenter Barbeque Secrets Lunch and Demonstration at Bellagio’s Tuscany Kitchen.  For $75 per person, watch, learn and taste as Bellagio Executive Chef Edmund Wong creates a tasty afternoon filled with BBQ styles from around the world expertly paired with a variety of international beers.  Some of the menu items include Robata Grilled Citrus and Chili Langoustine, Smoked Prime Beef Tenderloin with Asian BBQ sauce and Devil’s Chocolate Cake. For a more relaxed feel, head over to Excalibur where Lynyrd Skynrd BBQ & Beer offers a Sunday Family BBQ from 5 to 7:30 p.m. featuring savory smoked brisket and traditional side dishes such as Mom’s Baked Beans for $12.97.

If you want to raise the stakes, TENDER Steak & Seafood at Luxor is offering a three-course prix fixe menu fit for a king this Father’s Day for $55. Start the meal with Texas-Style American Kobe Chili or Maine Lobster Bisque then savor either Barbecue Braised Wagyu Kobe Boneless Short Ribs or a 10 oz. Range-Fed New Zealand Beef Ribeye for the main course. The meal comes to a sweet ending with a choice of Chocolate Decadent Cake or Crème Brûlée. Want to try the steak house voted Best of Las Vegas for more than 20 years? The Steak House at Circus Circus is offering either prime rib or filet mignon with a choice of sides and soup or salad for just $30 during the entire month of June.

After-Dinner Drinks
After enjoying a nice meal, retire to The Cigar Lounge at Andre’s at Monte Carlo, which offers one of North America’s widest selections of Cognacs, Armagnacs and after-dinner drinks.  For an added personal touch, Cognacs and cigars can be professionally paired to match dad’s taste.

If he prefers a more tropical feel, be sure to check out RHUMBAR at The Mirage for a late night cocktail.  Cap off the memorable father’s day weekend with a cigar on the lush outdoor patio inspired by the colors and moods of the Caribbean that also offers dad an ideal view of The Mirage Volcano.

Game On
If dad is an avid sports fan, he will be thrilled with the private SkyBoxes set above the MGM Grand Race & Sports Book. Equipped for up to 10 guests and complete with plasma televisions and surround-sound audio, he won’t miss a minute of the game in these exclusive booths, the next best seats to those in the stadium.

To become a part of the action, take dad to the signature poker room at Bellagio, Bobby’s Room, for some high-stakes excitement. He is sure to feel like a world-class pro within these walls, which provide maximum privacy and concentration and pay tribute to Bobby Baldwin, the 1978 World Series of Poker Champion. If dad needs to brush up on his game or perfect his poker face, Monte Carlo, Luxor, Excalibur and Circus Circus offer complimentary poker and table lessons.

Be Entertained
If dad likes to walk on the wild side, let him come face-to-face with white lions and tigers, panthers, leopards, and a family of bottlenose dolphins at Siegfried and Roy’s Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat at The Mirage where he’ll receive complimentary admission with the purchase of a regular priced ticket during Father’s Day weekend

For a flashback to the 60’s, take dad to Cirque du Soleil’s Beatles-inspired show LOVE at The Mirage where the artistry of performers comes together with the spirit and passion behind the most beloved rock group of all time to create a vivid, intimate and powerful entertainment experience.

If it’s comedy dad loves, he can laugh along with Las Vegas’ funniest comedians. Carrot Top, performing live at Luxor, is sure to tickle dad’s funny bone. From the fire-red curls that top his head to the props and gadgets that fill his trunk, Carrot Top is a true original.

Venture over to MGM Grand to experience its newest entertainment venue – Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club. Emmy Award-winning comedian and actor Brad Garrett brings top-quality comedy to MGM Grand within his intimate 288-seat comedy club. Dad will laugh his socks off at Garrett and other top comedians from around the country and you’ll never know who might stop by unexpectedly.

What Vegas trip would be complete without a few saucy vixens? Dad can let his inhibitions go and indulge at Luxor's FANTASY or enjoy sensual choreography displaying the artistic side of the female form at MGM Grand’s Crazy Horse Paris.

Relax
The easiest way to wipe out dad’s stress is with a trip to the spa. Throughout the month of June, Spa Mandalay at Mandalay Bay is offering a Father’s Day Package for $225 that includes a 50-minute Shea Butter Massage & Steam Wrap and a 50-minute Men’s Pure Energy Facial that will revitalize and rebalance dad’s skin. At Salon Bellagio, treat dad to a 45-minute rejuvenating Royal Shave for $60, which includes steamed hot towels, warm shaving cream, alum block and a botanical-based mask.

  1. The BBQ and Beer event you mention at the Bellagio is being held on June 30, not on Father's Day.
