And nightlife gurus like NYC’s Steve Lewis have somewhat rightfully complained about the design and flow of Haze, which can seem cavernous in spots. We’ve heard industry folks snipe about how Cit圜enter is for lame tourists. The Light Group, co-founded by former New Yorker Andrew Sasson, has hot spots all over town (we still like Bellagio’s Bank nightclub), but this new pleasure palace inside Cit圜enter’s Aria resort is now the jewel of its portfolio. and you’ll find nightlife-industry veterans, world-famous poker players and stunning Vegas newbies like the chatty strippers who had just moved from San Diego we encountered the last time we were there. Bonus: The club’s partners, Victor Drai and twin brothers Jesse and Cy Waits, also run the Drai’s after-hours club down the Strip. XS itself (which cost nearly $100 million to create and hasn’t lost any of its heat since opening in December 2008) is the attraction. Unlike other clubs, XS doesn’t rely on celebrity-hosted nights or lame contests to bring in the throngs. On one recent weekend, that crowd included Ryan Seacrest, NYC real-estate heavyweights and a group of party gals who had driven from LA straight to XS, changing clothes and doing their makeup in the car, not sure what day they were heading home. This is better.” Go for the sheer size (13,000 square feet inside, 27,000 square feet outside, with a gorgeous pool area that sizzles in the summer, 95 VIP tables and 26 cabanas), the arena-worthy sound and lighting systems, the majestic dance floor and the best crowd in town. On a recent visit, we were hanging out with a jet-setting New York restaurant mogul, who summed up the marquee spot at Steve Wynn’s Encore resort with total clarity despite the fact that it was nearly 3 a.m.: “Wow, I’ve been to Ibiza. Here are the top five nightclubs in Las Vegas right now.

You’ll see people all over the Strip handing out cards touting free or reduced cover-charge access to clubs, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the dozens of choices. (And sells a $120 package that gets you admission into and VIP access to cut the line at many clubs - but not all, so check the list closely.) If you’re willing to wait in line and pay around $20, most Vegas places are happy to have your business. Unlike New York, there’s no need to suck up to a goofball promoter or negotiate with paid-to-be-surly tough guys at the door. In Vegas, the hottest clubs are built for volume.
It’s a world where everybody lets loose like they’re on vacation, where nobody (not even the locals) has anywhere to be in the morning - unless you count an after-hours spot that’s still banging well after sunrise. SEXIER, more over-the-top and more accessible than what you’ll find in New York, Los Angeles or Miami, nightlife in Vegas is a party like no other, busted economy or no.
