Station Casinos, the company behind the hotel and its sister property in nearby Henderson, Green Valley Ranch, specializes in creating luxury environments without the crowds and over-the-top glitz of the Strip. The luxury is in the details, from the 32-foot-long lobby chandelier made of Swarovski crystals to the burled wood of the casino's Lucky Bar.
Set in the dusty terra-cotta hills of Red Rock Canyon in suburban Summerlin, the posh and off-the-beaten-path Red Rock Resort and Spa opened in 2006 as the first billion-dollar luxury resort off the Las Vegas Strip.
