South Strip anchors around the MGM Grand, which sits at the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Tropicana — one of the busiest intersections in the city. T-Mobile Arena (home of the Golden Knights) and Allegiant Stadium (Raiders) are both accessible from here. The free tram connects Mandalay Bay to Luxor to Excalibur. The resort mix ranges from ultra-luxury (Waldorf Astoria, Four Seasons, Vdara) to budget-friendly (Excalibur, Luxor). The further south you go, the further you are from center Strip dining and nightlife, but Mandalay Bay's pool complex and the Park MGM neighborhood have developed into their own ecosystems. South Strip is generally quieter, more spread out, and slightly more affordable than center.
The Four Seasons occupies floors 35-39 of Mandalay Bay — a non-gaming luxury hotel with its own entrance, pool, and service standards that are genuinely different from the casino floor below.
The most technologically sophisticated resort on the Strip. The rooms are exceptional. The casino is serious. The pool is excellent. The location is slightly south of center.
Formerly NoMad Las Vegas — now The Reserve at Park MGM. The most design-forward boutique rooms on the South Strip, with world-class dining and a calm that's rare in Vegas.
Three non-gaming all-suite towers adjacent to MGM Grand — the best value all-suite option on the South Strip, with full MGM Grand access.
The biggest casino resort in Vegas. The biggest casino floor. The most restaurants. The most rooms. The most everything. Also the most walking.
The former Monte Carlo reinvented itself as a lifestyle resort. The smoke-free casino is a genuine differentiator. Eataly is the best food hall in Vegas.
The best beach in Las Vegas — 11 acres of sand, a lazy river, and a wave pool. The furthest south you can go on the Strip before you fall off the edge.
An all-suite timeshare-adjacent tower next to Planet Hollywood — large rooms, kitchen facilities, and a Hilton Honors earning opportunity in a South Strip location.
The Manhattan skyline replica is the best exterior on the Strip. The interior is a labyrinth. The roller coaster is still running.
The pyramid is iconic. The inclinators are a novelty. The rooms are dated. But the price is right and the free tram connects you to Mandalay Bay.
The medieval castle on the Strip. The cheapest rooms in the south Strip cluster. The free tram to Mandalay Bay is the reason to stay here.
