About the Off-Strip
Off-Strip resorts sit a few minutes west or east of Las Vegas Boulevard, or out in Summerlin and the southwest valley. They offer more space, lower prices and easier parking, and several are close to Red Rock Canyon.
A rental car is useful here, especially for day trips. Westgate has a Monorail station.
