Las Vegas - Bliss

		Tanning Made Too Easy When the sun sets over Las Vegas, it is time to tan. Located in the same lobby as Palm Place’s Drift Spa, L.A. Sunset Tan is happy to add hue to your shining skin. The doors don’t close until 10 p.m., just in time to hit the clubs. Best yet, the hotel’s residents have an insider’s perk even the Hollywood starlets don’t enjoy: in-room tanning. Make an appointment to have the airbrushing equipment rushed to your floor. It’s the same tan, minus the UV rays, not to mention the effort of taking an elevator. 4381 W. Flamingo Road, 6th Floor (702) 944-3258 www.palmsplace.com/sunset — J.P.

		Lucky Indulgence The Good Luck Ritual at the Wynn Spa is the perfect way to rejuvenate your entire body after a long day with better hope for a good night at the casino. The spa’s signature treatment includes a 50-minute Fusion massage, a lemon verbena and peppermint foot treatment, moisturizing hand therapy, and a wild line botanical scalp treatment. Best of all, the bandal (a small, round, pillow-like instrument) they use on your face to relieve tension is yours to take home. It makes a fabulous exfoliator for use in the bath or shower. 3131 Las Vegas Blvd. South (702) 770-3900 www.wynnlasvegas.com — K.V.

		Go to Sleep While indulging in the special, two-hour Drift to Sleep treatment at the spa of the Ritz-Carlton, Lake Las Vegas, in Henderson, our eyelids grew so heavy that we nodded off for nearly half an hour — not out of boredom, but because we were so relaxed. That’s just what the doctor ordered for our over-scheduled lifestyles 1610 Lake Las Vegas Pkwy. (702) 567-4700 www.ritzcarlton.com — J.L.

Zen Again Talk about bending over backwards. A Four Seasons, Las Vegas perk is specifically geared to restoring energy to exhausted conventioneers. Delegates who meet at the quiet, sky-top haven far above the fray of the Strip get centered with the hotel’s so-called Yoga Breaks. Lead by the hotel’s spa staff of yoga and Pilates instructors, these short rejuvenation sessions — lasting from 15 minutes to half an hour — put Zen on the agenda with modified yoga poses, breathing exercises, meditation, stretching, and, at the end, a chance to snack on healthy fruit skewers and smoothies. What a stress-free way to win back your losses. 3960 Las Vegas Blvd. South South (702) 632-5000 www.fourseasons.com/lasvegas —J.L.

		Fortunate Telling Luck just might be a lady if you decide to treat her to the Spa at Encore’s signature massage treatment aptly named the Good Luck Ritual. Based on the five elements of feng shui and said to promote health, wealth, prosperity, happiness, and harmony, this head-to-toe experience put us into a dreamy, altered state with the alchemy of exotic Thai herbs, lemon verbena, peppermint, and a moisturizing cream so rich it peaks like lemon meringue. But if Lady Luck is temporarily M.I.A., gently coax her back with the Spa’s Ayurvedic Awakening facial based on Sundari products and designed to remove the vestiges of winter’s pallor with a sandalwood-fragranced scrub and the Neem and Avocado Moisturizer. 3131 Las Vegas Blvd. (702) 770-4772 www.wynnlasvegas.com — D.M.

		Juicy Adventure For two hours, we remained happily helpless as a deep massage firmly melted away the stress and pain of a long Las Vegas day. The Bellagio Spa & Salon treatment, called the Deep Coconut Surrender, calls for being plied with everything from heated stones to hot towels, and finishes with coconut milk drizzled along our legs and spine. With a potent Mai Tai cocktail afterward, the treatment came full circle. 3600 Las Vegas Blvd. South (702) 693-7111 www.bellagio.com — P.C.

		Reveler’s Reprieve JW Aquae Sulis Luxury Spa at the Marriott Las Vegas Resort & Spa does as much good for us outdoors as it does indoors. Inside come all the comforts we expect when from a high-end spa, including plunge pools, saunas, and a fine fitness center. The best: A waterfall shower that does the trick of several hands-on massages. Meanwhile, outdoors at Aquae Sulis, things really get a boost thanks to a hydrotherapy pool and several whirlpools delivering varying degrees of temperature and pulsing jets, ideal for targeting troubled areas. A meditation garden for yoga and Tai Chi help your soul find a tranquil reprieve akin to experiences of ancient Romans. 221 N. Rampart Blvd. (702) 869-7807 www.spasulis.com — S.R.
