In the epicenter of opulence and extravagance, you can win big and spend big.
While casinos, posh hotels, and all-you-can-eat buffets seem to define the Las Vegas experience on the surface, there’s another, entirely luxurious side to The Strip tailor-made for those with some serious cash to burn. From a decadent $5,000 hamburger to a $200,000 suite and many one-of-a-kind Las Vegas experiences, there are more than just a few ways to spend big in Sin City.
Yoga Reaches New Heights
Leave it to Las Vegas to create the most exclusive and elevating yoga experience. Maverick Helicopters’ has partnered with Silent Savasana yoga studio to bring HeliYoga Limitless to Las Vegas. This yoga excursion will set you back $3,499 for up to six people, but the memories made will be worth it. A limousine will pick you and your friends up from your hotel and take you to the Las Vegas helicopter terminal. There you’ll board the helicopter for a 20-minute ride to the peaks of Nevada’s Valley of Fire State Park.
This remote destination is only accessible by helicopter, so it is almost guaranteed that your 75 minute yoga session will be perfectly serene. The views of the red rocks are stunning and will leave you breathless. You’ll have 10 to 15 minutes to explore before HeliYoga begins. After class, celebrate with a Champagne toast and a 20-minute flight back over The Strip.
Wine and Dine Like Royalty
Everything’s bigger in Vegas — including the Happy Half Hour at the High Roller. The 550-foot-tall High Roller is the world’s tallest observation wheel and is guaranteed to be an unforgettable experience. Along with the best view of The Strip, the Happy Half Hour ticket gives you a 30-minute ride with an in cabin open bar with a bartender. Best time to go? Sunset. Just make sure to bring your camera to document the adventure.
Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous might agree that SW Steakhouse takes its steaks and desserts to an entire new level of luxury with the Japanese Wagyu Tenderloin and the Louis XIII 23-Karat Gold Bar. Choosing from the best Japanese Wagyu with a quality score of A5 and marble score between 8-10, a 4-ounce tenderloin cut will set you back $240.

After dinner, try the Louis XIII Grand Gold Bar. This $100 chocolate bar comes infused with $2,000 Grand Louis XIII cognac to start. Valrhona Caraibe dark chocolate is filled with Louis XIII caramel and a delicious crunchy praline ganache then spray painted with edible 23-karat gold. The gold bar is served in a custom Louis XIII box alongside Grand Louis XIII ice cream and a few gorgeous truffles.
When only the best will suffice, visit Joël Robuchon’s three Michelin Star French restaurant, Joël Robuchon, for dinner. Winner of numerous awards including AAA Five Diamond, Forbes Five Star and Wine Spectator’s Grand Award, this extraordinary restaurant caters to a refined palate. The 16-course Degustation Menu is $445 per person and is certain to be a meal you will never forget.
The Fleur Burger at Fleur by Hubert Keller takes the classic burger to an entirely new level. A short list of only 32 people can lay claim to having tried this $5,000 masterpiece. Award-winning Chef Hubert Keller tops a patty of Wagyu beef with foie gras and black truffles, and serves it with a bottle of 1995 Chateau Pétrus 5000 that comes with a personal note from the chef.
After that $5,000 burger, why not wash it down with a divine cocktail and dancing at XS Nightclub? You will need to pay up that $10,000 you won playing blackjack. Along with XS being named the hottest nightclub in the world and being home to DJs and musicians like Alesso, Diplo, Kygo and The Chainsmokers, the club features the “Ono.” This extravagant cocktail features rare Rémy Martin Louis XVIII Black Pearl, Charles Heidsieck 1981 Champagne Charlie, freshly-squeezed orange juice,
Sence rose nectar, and apricot puree.

A procession of 20 or so servers with sparklers in hand present this speciality drink to put this experience over the top.
Of course, for a mere $25, the more frugal can splurge on a mini bottle of champagne at the Moët and Chandon vending machine at Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas. Stop by the front desk to buy your special gold Moët coin and pick out your bottle of Imperial Brut or Imperial Rose. Included with your purchase is its very own mini flute so you can sip in style.

This complete head-to-toe luxurious treatment will detoxify the skin, add vitality, restore elasticity, and improve fine lines and wrinkles. The secret is Valmont’s native cellular collagen mask.
