History
Just a few short years after the opening of Wynn Las Vegas, the team at Wynn surprised the world by unveiling their plans for a new addition to the original resort, called Encore.
The Encore at Wynn Las Vegas is one of five Wynn properties, with its own sister hotel located in Boston Harbor. As the more vibrant version of Wynn, Encore is the home to internationally-recognized nightclubs, lounges and experiences.

With patented Wynn Dream Beds, suites range in size from a standard king room to double queen rooms. Ask for a panoramic view to soak in Strip views from floor to ceiling windows.
Tower Suites
Take your stay to the next level in an Encore tower suite. From an Encore Tower Suite Salon to a two-bedroom apartment, there’s no shortage of space to spread out and luxuriate.
Meeting Rooms
If the Wynn capitalizes on wine regions for their ballrooms, Encore marches to the same drummer with boardrooms named after classical composers. Bach and Beethoven boardrooms are available for use while on business trips, and for more special events, the 20,650 square food Encore Ballroom is an opulent option for hosting.
Pools
The Wynn and Encore pools are open interchangeably throughout the year, with each being closed for maintenance according to the season. Catch the Encore pool in the spring and summer months, and the Wynn pool in fall and winter.
Encore Pool
Smaller in scale, but no less grand, the Encore pool is a gorgeous body of water situated in the southwest corner of the resort proper. Access this oasis from the Encore entrance areas and enjoy an amazing Las Vegas poolside experience.
European Pool
A calming, authentic experience awaits you at the European pool. See Wynn for more details.
Cabanas and Daybeds
The Encore resort pool is home to well-stocked cabanas, complete with entertainment For true privacy, reserve one of Encore’s Fairway Villas, located parallel to the Wynn Golf Pro Shop.

Encore Theater
The biggest names in Hollywood hit the stage nightly at the Encore Theater. From headlining comedy acts such as Jim Gaffigan and Taylor Tomlinson to musicians like Lionel Richie and Lea Salonga, every entertainment style is catered to at Encore.
Parking
There is no shortage of free parking at Encore. The property has two garages, one shared with Wynn proper and one tucked into the property. Access the Encore self-parking garage off of Encore Resort Boulevard, and be ready to use those eagle eyes. The entrance is tucked into the back of the resort.
Transportation
Hertz car rental is stationed outside of the check-in desk. Taxis are always on standby near the main valet, and shuttle services are available by calling Bell Services.

The Spa At Encore
Both spas at Wynn and Encore are recipients of Forbes Five-Star Spa Awards. Choose from a list of massages, facials and skin care treatments for optimal self care. A world-class fitness center is also included in the amenities, for guests looking to stay fit during their stay.
Restaurants
Casa Playa
One is never far from Mexican food on the Strip. Casa Playa is Encore’s resident upscale Mexican spot, with twists on classics such as wagyu carne asada tacos and short rib suadero. Straight from the mind of chef Sarah Thompson, the spot is making major waves as Encore’s newest restaurant, open since September 2021.
Cipriani
Cipriani is a unique blend of classy dining mixed with salon-like touches, all with the overlay of Italian elegance. While every dinner selection is divine, we love to order a few different appetizers from the miles-long list. Don’t forget the homemade baked gnocchi “alla gorgonzola” as one of the starters.
Goodies on Demand
Any time that a snack can stretch into an outing, we appreciate it. Open at 6 a.m. for early risers or sunrise travel arrivals, Goodies on Demand has the perfect mix of casual convenience and “take a break” ambiance. The can’t-miss dish here is the decadent tartines, with savory topping that leave diners satisfied.
Sinatra
Encore is not a theme hotel, but dining in a restaurant steeped in the history of its location is always a good move. In tribute fashion, the restaurant took extra measures to ensure that guests enjoy a cozy, feel-good tribute experience to Frank Sintra. For those who haven’t already visited and sampled the osso buco or antipasti, “the best is yet to come”
Bars
Eastside Lounge
Dueling pianos? Yes, please. This classy piano bar on the Strip can be found overlooking the Encore resort pool, and is the perfect spot to grab a drink and stay involved in the live music. Stop by after 9:30 p.m. for the ivories action.
Lobby Bar
The Lobby Bar is aptly named for its location. In close proximity to Encore’s reservation desk and concierge, guests can immediately start their vacation—or outlast a long check-in queue with small plates and drinks.
Island Bar & Casino
Swimming up to a bar for a drink is one of the great pleasures of life. Enjoy a beer or cocktail while splashing in the sun at the Encore resort pool.
Entertainment
Shows
The former site for “La Rêve” is a hotspot for shows and residencies that make waves across the Strip. Check out Encore’s list of shows for some quality entertainment right in the hotel.

Nightclubs and Dayclubs
Encore Beach Club
Encore Beach Club (EBC) is one of the most popular pools on the Strip. There is no wrong time to enjoy the luxury amenities, such as heated pools and daybed options, but the real action happens after the sun sets on the desert horizon.
EBC At Night
Pool parties are a 24/7 affair at Encore. EBC At Night is Encore Beach Club’s premier nightclub experience, which blends seamlessly from the daytime fun. Enjoy bottle service with live DJs that play well into the night, and with names like Zedd and RL Grime, the star power is always on point.
XS Nightclub
XS is world-renowned, having earned rewards and accolades as the best nightclub in America several years in a row. The Chainsmokers, Diplo and Dillon Francis are just some of the residency names that stop in to blow the lineup out of the water, pun intended.
When the weather heats up, check out XS Night Swim, an all-night pool party for swimmers looking to continue their party long after the daytime pools close.
Other Attractions
Lake of Dreams
Venture outdoors to experience the colorful display show that Wynn offers. Packed with LED lights and a fountain, Lake of Dreams runs daily and is a complimentary show for guests of the Wynn and Strip visitors.

Enter through the Pro Shop to access the course, and start the day—or afternoon—swinging.
Wynn Field Club

Brunello Cucinelli
This isn’t named after wine, but with the timeless quality of Brunello Cucinelli’s works, it wears like a fine vintage. The brand has a wide reach, and is the ultimate retailer for high-end staples that stem from a “humanistic enterprise,” a moral that is valued by the fashion house.
Chanel
There is much more to this boutique than a certain perfume. Source makeup, eyewear and pieces from an exclusive apparel collection that is pure art in itself. This is also the place to source your iconic quilted lambskin Chanel bag.
Christian Louboutin
The red-soled shoes are in song lyrics and shopping bags all over the world. The Encore Esplanade features its own store, which is one of three locations on the Strip. Christian Louboutin also has the men covered, with shoes, apparel and accessories that speak to classic comfort.
Golden Goose
Golden Goose is an unconventional brand, known for its “grunge glamour’ rather than sleek designer style. While the trademark sneakers are a household name in Italian fashion, Golden Goose features apparel and vintage collections to cater to every breed of casual. Watch for the silver stars on sneakers in the windows.
René Caovilla
The Wynn Esplanade is home to a few first locations for these designer brands, but the Encore Esplanade is René Caovilla’s first US location. Jeweled designer shoes crafted from the finest materials are the spotlight items here, along with wedding accessories and clutches.
The Future
Wynn will see a change in leadership. Matt Maddox, the former CEO of Wynn Resorts, announced his retirement from the position in late 2021. His replacement is Wynn Interactive CEO and former CFO Craig Billings, who will assume the role in early 2022.
