If you prefer a themed luxury resort, stay at the Italian-style Venetian. Its main attraction is the quarter-mile long canal running through the property, which offers gondola rides to guests for a fee. Inside the casino, you can enjoy your break from golfing by browsing the Grand Canal Shoppes, cooling off in one of the three swimming pools or dining at one of the Venetian's 20 fine restaurants.

Treasure Island
The pirate-themed Treasure Island is across Las Vegas Boulevard from the Wynn. The nightly "Sirens of TI" streetside show is frequently ranked among the city's best free attractions. Each of the hotel's 2,665 rooms features floor-to-ceiling windows that provide guests with an amazing view of the mountains or the Las Vegas Strip. If you are looking for a great show to watch while you are away from the golf course, check out Cirque du Soleil's "Mystere" in the 1,600-seat Treasure Island theater.
