Setting the standard in Vegas
Setting the Standard in Vegas
We have been hosting Naughty Events in Vegas for years. We started with an event called LLIVE, which stood for Lifestyle Lounge’s Incredible Vegas Event. It was a blast, and we took over the Alexis Park Hotel, the first lifestyle event to book the entire 500 room property.
One night, we headed up to the rooftop of the conference center to look at the Vegas Strip, located just a few blocks away, when it hit me, why not do our parties up on the rooftop, with the strip as our backdrop.
That was over 18 years ago and since then, there have been many lifestyle events at the Alexis Park hotel and many rooftop parties and weddings. We started a trend that continues until today.
One night, one of my staff said that there was a guy trying to get in to see me and he was very insistent that he met me. It turned out that he was from the Hard Rock Hotel, and they had heard about our parties, and he wanted to see it for himself. The Hard Rock had just been renovated and he wanted us to have our next party at the Hard Rock.
We ended up booking the entire new expansion of the Hard Rock (which was also 500 rooms), plus a bunch of suites in their new All Suite building. That was one of my favorite events in Las Vegas. Having brand new rooms and upgraded amenities was a big step up for our event. We loved the privacy of the Alexis Park Hotel, but we also loved the nicer rooms and amenities at the Hard Rock.
There was only one restaurant at the Alexis Park, but the Hard Rock had lots of great restaurants that were a lot better than what was offered at the Alexis Park. The one thing we did not like was that we only had one tower (out of three) so privacy for our event was not possible.
The same guy that came to see me that night on the rooftop eventually became the General Manager of the Serene Hotel, the property next to the Alexis Park Hotel. They renovated the hotel and specifically went after lifestyle events. For the next couple of years, many lifestyle takeovers took place at the Serene Hotel.
It’s amazing how many people, hotels, careers, and events were affected by those early LLIVE events. The Butterfly effect is real.
Flash forward to 2022 and we are back in Vegas, this time at a brand new hotel, with great amenities AND we got the entire hotel, all to ourselves. Privacy AND new rooms and great restaurants. We finally have the trifecta in Las Vegas with this year’s Naughty Vegas.
The Ahern Hotel already has two lifestyle takeovers booked and will possibly replace the Alexis Park as the go-to hotel in Las Vegas for lifestyle events. We are thrilled to be leading the way again in Las Vegas and setting the standard for great Lifestyle events.
The rooms in The Ahern are very modern and luxurious with a classic touch. The rooms start at 350 sq ft and are well-appointed. The rooms have full-length mirrors, robes and my favorite part is that they have free parking and no resort fees.
We have already sold out of the Suites and Deluxe rooms, but the standard rooms are far nicer than anything we have booked since the Hard Rock Hotel.
I will be staying at the Ahern next week while I am there to book some shows for Naughty Vegas. I look forward to having one of their “Candlelight Dinners,” which they do in private dining rooms with some of my Vegas friends.
It is so nice to be back at an upscale hotel again and this time, we will have the entire place to ourselves. This is the first time we will have all of this AND privacy. October cannot get here soon enough.
It is time to set the standard again in Las Vegas.
See you at a Naughty Event soon…
