Spacious All Suite Accommodations and Strip Views

Standard accommodations are at least 580 sq ft and feature floor-to-ceiling windows with either panoramic views of the neon-lit Strip or the mountains surrounding the hotel. For larger groups or those seeking a more luxurious experience, there are several premium options, including multi-bedroom penthouses and private villa accommodations known as the Palazzo Villas, featuring luxury amenities and private entrances.

Ipanema Beach Club and Gaming Floor

The Ipanema Beach Club is a Tropical Paradise with 4 swimming pools, waterfalls, and white-sand beaches. There are also seasonal locations for Hydrotherapy/Whirlpool Treatments, Private Cabanas, and poolside dining. Inside, the 150,000-square-foot casino floor provides a vast array of gaming options, including hundreds of slot machines, a dedicated sportsbook, and a variety of traditional table games. The resort also features the KISS by Monster Mini Golf attraction and a fitness center for guest use.

Global Culinary Options and Specialty Dining

There are many different kinds of restaurants at the Rio, ranging from fast-casual to upscale sit-down. The Canteen Food Hall, which is part of the Rio, offers a variety of informal food options featuring worldwide cuisine, including ramen, burgers, and tacos.

For a more elevated experience, guests can visit High Steaks Vegas for a classic American steakhouse meal, or VooDoo Steak on the 50th floor, renowned for its outdoor patio and some of the best views in the city. The Wine Cellar Tasting Room also provides a quiet sanctuary for wine enthusiasts to sample rare vintages.

Expansive Convention Center and Meeting Facilities

The Rio is a great place to host meetings or conferences, with more than 220,000 square feet of versatile indoor space. It is convenient for logistics due to its loading docks on the ground floor, and its huge ballrooms (e.g., the Pavilion and Amazon) can seat thousands of attendees. With an additional 500,000 square feet of outdoor event space, the property is a frequent choice for trade shows, corporate retreats, and large-scale social functions that require a dedicated, event-focused environment.
