This Off-strip Las Vegas Hotel Is Getting a $200-million Transformation—Take an Exclusive Look Inside
Green Valley Ranch, located 12 miles south of the Las Vegas Strip, is undergoing a $200 million transformation. The resort plans to renovate all 493 of its guest rooms and suites in phases, with completion scheduled for 2026. Highlights include analog alarm clocks, curated artwork, and layered textures in the guest rooms, and oversized soaking tubs, hand-finished woodwork, and built-in entertainment systems in the suites. On the eve of its 25th birthday, Green Valley Ranch is undergoing a sweeping $200 million transformation that will touch nearly every corner of the resort. Located in Henderson, about 12 miles south of the Las Vegas Strip, the beloved hotel opened in 2001 as a refined alternative to the Strip's spectacle. Earlier this summer, the resort embarked on a renovation of all 493 guest rooms and suites, a process that will continue in phases through 2026. The redesign, led by Station Casinos' in-house team in partnership with Avenue Interior Design, brings a modern perspective to the resort's Mediterranean-inspired roots. Deluxe rooms now feel more residential, with layered textures, sculptural walnut lighting, and custom stone finishes. Caramel tweeds and shagreen leathers lend the spaces a tailored, lived-in feel, while thoughtful touches, such as analog alarm clocks and curated artwork by Zoe Bois, add character. In the suites, the upgrades are even more pronounced. The West Tower's 37 reimagined suites introduce elevated materials, including ivory onyx, burnished brass, and hand-finished woodwork. Spa-inspired bathrooms feature oversized soaking tubs and rainfall showers framed in marble. High-tech comforts include smart TVs, automated lighting, and entertainment systems integrated into custom millwork. Several suites offer balconies or patios overlooking the pool, and some include butler service and upgraded amenities such as Dyson hair dryers and Agavia toiletries. Crowning the suite collection is the two-bedroom 2,790-square-foot Strip Suite, which is more like a private residence than a hotel penthouse, complete with a rooftop terrace with panoramic views, a striking red tiger onyx bar, a butler's kitchen, and curated design pieces from Daniel Fine Art and The Future Perfect. The resort has also transformed its public spaces over the last few years. Drop Bar, which reopened in late 2021, is now a sparkling focal point on the casino floor with a dramatic chandelier and sweeping views of the resort's grounds. In spring 2023, the eight-acre backyard pool area was refreshed with new cabanas, upgraded daybeds, and soft-toned finishes that highlight the garden-like layout. That same year, Polaris Bar debuted along the casino promenade, offering a circular gathering space with sports screens, bartop gaming, and globally-inspired cocktails. Green Valley Ranch also doubled down on high-stakes gaming by expanding its High Limit Table Games room in late 2023 and refreshing its High Limit Slots room in early 2024. The culinary lineup has seen its own glow-up with the addition of Blue Ribbon Sushi Bar & Grill in March of this year. Helmed by chefs and brothers Eric and Bruce Bromberg, the restaurant features a wood-accented dining room, a 13-seat sushi counter, and a menu that spans pristine sashimi, hot Japanese specialties, and its signature fried chicken with wasabi honey. The space joins a lineup of local favorites like Hank's Fine Steaks & Martinis, Bottiglia Cucina & Enoteca, and Pizza Rock by Tony Gemignani. Once the current phase wraps, the renovation will continue with updates to the East Tower, South Lobby, and the resort's meeting and convention spaces. Guest rooms in the renovated West Tower will be available beginning October 1.

Grateful Dead's Shakedown Street goes legit for Golden Gate Park shows
As Grateful Dead veterans Bob Weir and Mickey Hart return to their spiritual home for Dead & Company 's celebratory run of shows in Golden Gate Park, the legendary Shakedown Street is once again setting up shop, this time with civic coordination. This year's incarnation of the free-spirited marketplace, which has followed the Dead since the 1980s, is scheduled to run from 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Aug. 1-3, along a 200-foot stretch of JFK Promenade between Transverse and Blue Heron Lake drives. The location sits about a mile east of the Polo Fields, where Dead & Company is set to perform each day for an expected 60,000 fans, joined by special guests Trey Anastasio, Billy Strings and Sturgill Simpson. Longtime Deadhead and clothing designer Molly Henderson, a San Francisco native who previously organized markets for the band's shows at Oracle Park and the Sphere in Las Vegas, is leading the effort in partnership with Jay and Liora Soladay and Sunshine Powers, owner of Love on Haight. 'Shakedown Street is a part of the culture of the whole Grateful Dead scene. It's an integral part of the Deadhead experience,' Henderson told the Chronicle. 'It began during the counterculture movement. People created a way to barter their wares to make their way to the next city.' Now a sanctioned event, the market will feature nearly 100 vendors selling tie-dye apparel, handmade jewelry, vintage Grateful Dead merchandise, original prints, patches and collectible posters. Organizers collaborated with city officials and concert promoters to secure permits and minimize disruption to nearby neighborhoods. 'There were a lot of logistics involved,' Henderson said. 'The vendors are coming no matter what. Having a sanctioned, safe place for this to happen was a large consideration.' Auxiliary markets and events are expected to pop up across the city to mark the 60th anniversary of the Dead, including the Heart of Town concert series at Pier 48, Jerry Day in McLaren Park, and activations in the Haight and Sunset neighborhoods.
