Off-Las Vegas Strip casino-hotel brings back luxury villas

Updated October 15, 2024 - 7:35 pm

An off-Strip hotel-casino has reintroduced its luxury villas following a property-wide transformation.

Rio’s Palazzo Villas closed in 2019 under previous owners Caesars Entertainment, but new owners Dreamscape Cos. reintroduced the villas to the public this fall, according to a news release from the property. The “palatial living spaces” range from 4,000 to 13,950 square feet and include private entrances, media rooms, formal dining areas, and other amenities meant to accommodate multiple occasions.

Villas come in one-, three- and six-bedroom layouts. The three-bedroom can sleep six, with a dining area that can seat up to 14. It also includes a steam room in the shower, a salon room and a massage room, according to the release. The six-bedroom villa, meanwhile, offers the same amenities for double the capacity.

Dreamscape Cos. took over operations of the property in October 2023 and soon launched a multi-year, $350 million redevelopment of the property. Executives said the first phase was recently completed. That work included remodeling of the casino floor, 2,500 guest rooms, meeting and convention space, pools and a six-stall food hall, along with exterior work.
