Las Vegas might be best known as an adult playground packed with pulse-pounding casinos, indulgent restaurants, raucous nightlife, and other vices—its nickname is Sin City, after all—but it’s not the only way to make the most of a jaunt to Nevada’s biggest city.
Announced this week, Living Well by Wynn Las Vegas helps balance your body and mind with a thoughtfully curated collection of world-class fitness and wellness offerings. “Being away from home does not mean you have to compromise on your desire to stay fit, eat right, or enjoy healthy activity. Our program was created to provide our guests everything they need to live well, no matter how they choose to define it,” said Brian Gullbrants, Chief Operating Officer - North America, Wynn Resorts, in a statement shared with Forbes of Living Well, which is based on three key pillars: Renew, Replenish, and Re-Energize.
Whether you’re bouncing back from a late night or unplugging from life’s everyday stresses, The Spa at Wynn and The Spa at Encore deliver. Though the service menus are extensive (there’s even cutting-edge HydraFacials) and the facilities are dazzling—The Spa at Encore is a sanctuary in its own right with its ornate, Morocco-inspired design of giant urns, gilded lamps, and a giant gold peacock—the new CBD massages are tough to beat since they promote relaxation at a deep, cellular level by calming inflammation while soothing the nervous system.
Continue your recovery back at a Wynn Tower Suite. Part of the resort’s sweeping $200 million remodeling project that wrapped last year, these coveted accommodations now boast more touches so you feel rested and grounded, from soft ambient lighting to Wynn’s signature Dream Bed dressed in crisp, custom-made linens. What’s remained unchanged? The soaring, sky-high views of the city and unbelievably hushed vibe—a must for restorative rest.
As you already know, a balanced and nutrient-rich diet can make all the difference between feeling good and feeling great. With that in mind, resort mixologist Mariena Mercer Boarini developed a bevy of zero-proof libations—many feature mood-boosting adaptogens such as reishi mushrooms and ashwagandha—to raise the bar on what’s possible in the realm of alcohol-free cocktails. At the new Overlook Lounge, for example, you can order the Ava, an imaginative riff on the classic aperitivo Aperol Spritz combining Lyre’s Italian Spritz spirit, Fevertree Ginger Beer, and soda. It’s equal parts bitter, citrusy, and refreshing, and dramatically presented in a large white wine glass like its boozy counterpart.
Foodwise, there’s plenty to fill you up without weighing you down. Urth Caffé, an offshoot of the trendy West Hollywood eatery, specializes in casual sips and snacks including organic heirloom coffee and original plates such as D'Lox Toast (lox slices, tomatoes, and cream cheese atop a slab of buckwheat bread). And at the new Mizumi helmed by executive chef Min Kim, you can sink your teeth into pristine traditional sushi and contemporary raw fish preparations like the Wild Snapper Sashimi Usuzukuri, an artful arrangement of mild Japanese snapper, lime-soy dressing, and sesame seeds for subtle crunch.
Need to replenish fast, but don’t think eating and drinking well will cut it? Head to NutriDrip by Clean Market. The clinic offers all sorts of IV drips—they’re painless and administered by registered nurses for extra peace of mind—that deliver benefical fluids straight to your bloodstream so you can get ahead of a potential hangover, or speed up recovery from one.
If you’re feeling run down, exercise is a proven way to put pep back in your step. The Fitness Centers at Encore and Wynn—which was recently refreshed with state-of-the-art equipment and a juice bar—cover your basic needs, but if you want to take your workout to the next level, consider booking a one-on-one session with TB12. Co-founded by seven-time Superbowl champion Tom Brady and his body coach Alex Guerrero, and rooted in nutrition, hydration, and self pliability, even a single session will teach you how to optimize future workouts while minimizing injury with hands-on bodywork and strategic stretching recommendations. Other ways to maintain your fitness here include a sweat-drenched class at SoulCycle, a round of golf at the resort’s scenic championship course, and in-room workout videos by Amanda Kloots.
Ultimately, Living Well by Wynn Las Vegas champions flexibility and doing what makes you feel your best—whether you’re trying to maintain balance while on the road or quickly recover so you’re back in tip-top socializing form. This is Las Vegas, after all.
