Developed by Shopoff Realty Investments and Contour, in partnership with Dream Hotel Group, Dream Las Vegas will be a driving force in the ongoing revitalization and rejuvenation of the south end of the Las Vegas Strip. The 531-room lifestyle hotel and casino pairs global architecture firm DLR Group with interior design by AvroKo, Rockwell Group and DLR Interiors, and is expected to open with seven experiential dining and nightlife venues, 12,000 square feet of meeting and event space and a 20,000-square-foot casino, in late 2024.

"The Dream Las Vegas development is a great investment in our local economy – to boost tourism and create thousands of new jobs," said Nevada State Governor Steve Sisolak. "I'm excited to see the resort come to life in 2024, offering even more first-class amenities and service, and extending our State's long history as a leader in hospitality and tourism."

Set to open in late 2024, Dream Las Vegas features 531 highly appointed guestrooms and suites, and seven original dining and nightlife options, including a third-level resort pool and day club, two bar and lounge concepts on the gaming floor, a lobby bar, craft coffee café and gelateria on the street level, as well as a sporting club, boutique nightclub, signature restaurant and 24-hour diner on the third floor.

The lifestyle hotel will also offer 12,000 square feet of meeting and event space, including a 5,000-square-foot ballroom and 90-seat live entertainment theatre, a 20,000-square-foot casino and gaming floor, a fitness center by TechnoGym and on-site parking. Casino and gaming operations will be led by Peninsula Pacific Entertainment (P2E). Situated along emerging South Las Vegas Blvd., the hotel's presence will support the local community and the 32 million tourists that visit Las Vegas each year, adding another facet to the south end of the Strip.

Details have emerged on Southern Nevada’s next big casino-resort project which will include a major sports and entertainment arena. Last week, Tim Leiweke and partner Irving Azoff of the Los Angeles-based Oak View Group named the executives that will drive development of the 2,000-room OVG Las Vegas Hotel & Casino and its adjacent 20,000-seat NBA-ready arena.

They’re Randy Morton, former co-CEO of the Foley Entertainment Group and a four-decade hospitality executive with experience as president and chief operating officer of Bellagio, and Marc Badain, the longtime former president of the Raiders, who helped relocate the team to Las Vegas from Oakland and guided construction of the $2 billion, 65,000-seat Allegiant Stadium.

The $3 billion project — $1 billion of which is dedicated to the arena — will be built on about 25 acres at Las Vegas Boulevard and Blue Diamond Road, right next to Interstate 15 and 1½ miles south of Interstate 215.

Another potential new casino or resort in the pipeline?

Tilman Fertitta, the billionaire who owns the NBA's Houston Rockets as well as the downtown Las Vegas casino the Golden Nugget has closed on a 6.2-acre piece of land on the Strip for $270 million. That's $43 million per acre, according to a story in the Las Vegas Review-Journal. A sometimes reality TV star who made his fortune in the restaurant business, Fertitta has kept his Las Vegas Strip plans close to the vest.

"It could also lead to a ground-up project by Fertitta on Las Vegas Boulevard, an ultra-competitive tourist corridor that regularly sees fresh development plans, albeit with a mixed record of projects actually getting built," the paper's Eli Segall speculated. The property currently is home to retail including souvenir shops as well as a Tex-Mex restaurant and a motel that's currently closed. Fertitta could build a casino resort on the property or opt for a luxury hotel without a casino.
