Fodor's Expert Review The Venetian Resort

It's no secret that this theme hotel re-creates Italy's most romantic city with meticulous reproductions of Venetian landmarks, and the large suites aren't too shabby, either. Each 650-square-foot suite offers a sunken living room with a coffee table and convertible sofa, walk-in closets, a separate shower and tub, three flat-screen TVs, an iHome alarm clock, and remote-controlled curtains. The even posher Venezia Tower has a garden, private entrance, fountains, and accommodations large enough for an entire Italian extended family. Canyon Ranch spa features a 40-foot climbing wall and Aquavana thermal suite. On hot summer days, the pool complex is a great place to spend a day.
