From Boozy Brunches to Afternoons Spent Poolside, Virgin Hotels Las Vegas Is Perfect for a Gals Getaway
In the words of the legendary Shania Twain: Let’s go, girls! If your day-to-day has become more work than play, then it might be time to gather your gals and hit the road for an epic lady vacay. There’s no place like Vegas (baby) for a weekend of fun and fabulous female festivities, and Virgin Hotels Las Vegas has everything you need for a weekend to remember. Whether you’re pining for some pool time or just craving the timeless dinner-and-a-show duo, you can do it all at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas. Because here in Sin City, there’s something to please every chick in your clique.
Sumptuous Suites
The place where you kick back and unpack will set the tone for the entire weekend—so be sure to set up your gals in style. Virgin Hotels Las Vegas’ extra-spacious suites offer an array of backdrops to suit your vibe. Consider the Stellar Suite, with its sultry modern-glam aesthetic and pool table for extra recreation, or the Oasis Suite for its light and airy feel and colorful mid-mod touches. If you’re ready to go big, reserve Richard’s Grand Villa for the ultimate entrée into next-level luxury—think multi-story leisurely living with opulent accents and access to your own private outdoor oasis.
Local Insight: Save on your girls getaway. Book the Summer Vibes offer, which gets you up to 40% off room rates, or if you’re a Las Vegas local, the Locals offer gets you up to 35% off room rates. Both of these offers also include complimentary valet and self-parking.
Brunch at Kassi Beach House
First stop: boozy brunch! Head down to Kassi Beach House to discover a dizzying display of dishes to treat your tastebuds, along with a bustling coastal Italian-inspired ambiance worthy of the ‘Gram. Get the party started with some bottomless rosé all around, then choose your favorite flavors to sample, savor and share with the table. Commence with the classics, like ricotta pancakes and avocado toast, or elevate your eats to steak and eggs, smoked salmon or branzino. Do a little mambo Italiano and try the primo pizzas and decadent pasta specialties like cacio e pepe or mushroom carbonara—to which you can add shaved seasonal truffles or a dollop of caviar—because why not?
Catch Some Rays at the Pool
Once sufficiently fueled up, take the party train down to The Resort Pool at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, where you’ll enjoy a resort oasis that’s perfect for some fun in the sun. The lower pool is open to all ages, while the upper pool only welcomes those who are 21+, so if an adults-only scene is what you’re after, you know where to go. Book your daybeds or cabanas ahead of time to secure some shade and take advantage of the extensive poolside menu, which features dishes like bigeye tuna poke nachos and chili lime chicken wings, as well as cold libations like the Ninth Eye Mai Tai and Mojave Mojito. Pro tip: If you’re already feelin’ a little bent out of shape from brunch, order the Hangover Fries, which come loaded with sausage gravy, a fried egg, cheddar cheese and green onions.

Spa Treatments + Yoga Classes
If you’re looking to boost your weekend wellness routine, peruse the spa’s menu of treatments and temptations for the ultimate afternoon of indulgence. Need to fix that freaky streaky spray tan? Try a full-body skin scrub or professional peel. Forget to wax? No problem; they’ve got services on standby. Looking for a full-on glow up? Do yourselves a favor and book a Waking Up in Vegas post-party facial to turn back the clock after an evening of epic adventures. Mix in some dermaplaning and collagen stimulation—both performed with holistic techniques and infused with fragrant botanicals.
Bring your souls back to life with aromatherapy, a few zaps of electric microcurrent to the face and massages so good you can actually recalibrate your parasympathetic nervous system. Grab a green juice for good measure, and cap off the body work with one of the hotel’s yoga classes, which are complimentary to hotel guests.
Tanoshi Hour at Nobu
After some pampering, it’s time to get ready for a girls’ night out night in Vegas. Get the party started with Tanoshi Hour at Nobu. Loved by celebs far and wide, Nobu is as good as it gets when it comes to Japanese fusion cuisine. And from Sunday through Thursday between 6 and 7 p.m. (in the lounge area only), you can enjoy special prices on your fav Nobu dishes and select cocktails, beer and wine. Start with a round of lychee martinis, then snack on shareable plates like shishito peppers, rock shrimp tempura, seafood ceviche, salmon avocado rolls and more.
Snazzy Dinner at One Steakhouse
Before hitting up the nocturnal activities, take the girlies on a group date to One Steakhouse—designed by the culinary minds behind the iconic Morton’s Steakhouse. Keep the drinks flowing with a round of craft cocktails, such as the Smoked Peach or Strawberry Blossom. Brace yourself for this major menu—in fact, you’ll probably need some crispy tiger shrimp or Rhode Island calamari to snack on while absorbing all of the decadent choices. Skip the salads and go straight for the seafood with a shellfish platter for the table, then dive into a plate of diver sea scallops, Alaskan king crab pasta or twin Maine lobster tails. Prepare yourself to slice into a perfectly seared filet mignon, ribeye or NY strip steak with all the trimmings, including sumptuous sides like ricotta gnocchi, Maitake mushrooms and jumbo asparagus. Or go full-on YOLO by making it a surf and turf extravaganza.
Live Entertainment + VIP Theater Experience
While you digest, go back and get gussied up in your glitziest desert duds to see a show at The Theater, which was upgraded with brand-new luxury suites and VIP lounge areas that are waiting for you and your fabulous crew! Choose from Elevated VIP Seating, Front and Center VIP Seating and Suite Life VIP Seating, which all come with their own unique perks like an open bar, private expedited entry, dedicated hosts and more.
