Should You Rent an Airbnb While You’re in Las Vegas?

Cheaper than most hotels

Las Vegas has over 150,000 hotel rooms ranging from simple studios to opulent suites that cost thousands of dollars a night. There are hotels all over Sin City- but if you want to stay on the Strip, you’ll pay the highest prices and be slapped with a resort fee. The world-class amenities these casinos offer justify the price for many, but if you want to save money or have unusual housing needs, you have a great option- Airbnb rentals.

Just like traditional hotels, Airbnb offers a wide range of rental accommodations located throughout the city. You can rent a condo on the Strip, a mansion on the West side, a small studio in the town center. Advantages to staying at an Airbnb rental include:

  •  Privacy
  • You save money
  • Fantastic way to meet the locals

The majority of Airbnbs offer a kitchen or amenities for cooking; this can help you save an enormous amount of money on food. Also, there are usually no resort fees, parking is free, and many rentals provide you with access to a gym or the pool at no extra costs.

Overall, an Airbnb rental can help save money if you come to Las Vegas as a family or large group.  You can rent a large house for the same price as a hotel room in a top-tier resort. If you’re on your own, you can find a motel/hotel away from the Strip with low daily rates comparable to small Airbnb rentals. Plus, as a single person, you will have more company in a hotel environment.
