The Spruce Goose

The Spruce Goose: Nevada

Inspired by the iconic Frank Lloyd Wright architectural gems found in neighbouring Arizona, this late-70s home mixes old-school charm with modern amenities for a luxurious Las Vegas escape with friends and family.

An open layout on the ground floor is made to feel even more spacious thanks to a sky-high ceiling above the living area. It's wrapped by large glass panes that look out over the enclosed garden and pool area. Spend your days relaxing by the water and diving into the pool to cool off.

With the mercury rising, head back inside, where an irresistible combo of a wet bar, a selection of instruments and a pool table set the scene for an entertaining afternoon. When evening rolls around, there's a cosy couch flanked by a couple of elegant Eames chairs, where you can relax by the fire. Alternatively, slip into the seven-seater hot tub and gaze up at the stars.

However, you can't come to Vegas and stay at home, no matter how lovely it is. Thankfully, your location in the historic Scotch Eighties neighbourhood – close to the city's vibrant Creative District, the bustling Fremont St and the Strip – places you right among Vegas' movers and shakers.

After a neon-tinged night on the Strip, return home to your en-suite bedroom, shutting the door on an unforgettable day. Your quiet residential setting almost guarantees a good night's sleep, so you can wake up fresh-faced the following day, ready and raring to do it all again.
