Day and night, family friendly Tahiti Village Resort is the place to be for a great July 4th holiday in Las Vegas. We’re serving up a batch of entertaining activities in and around our tropical beach pool, where you can beat the heat from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. You’ll enjoy a disc jockey for the first part of the day, live music for the second, a face painter and a movie on the beach!

A delicious new drink made from a secret Bacardi recipe and an old favorite reimagined by our bar staff have become the official drinks of Tahiti Village, Las Vegas’ favorite tropical resort. Just in time for your summer imbibing pleasure, we are pleased to introduce the subtly sweet Tahitian Sunset and the zingy zesty Tahitian Mary.
TAHITIAN SUNSET
Our partnership with Bacardi has resulted in a drink that captures the tropical essence of Tahiti Village. When you order the Tahitian Sunset, you’re essentially getting Tahiti Village in a glass. Featuring refreshing Bacardi Lime rum and a mix of proprietary ingredients, the Tahitian Sunset is the perfect drink to enjoy by the pool, at the lazy river, on your balcony – or anywhere!
TAHITIAN MARY
Five years in the making and overflowing with 10 delectable ingredients, the Tahitian Mary – our over-the-top take on the popular Bloody Mary – is more than a match for any Vegas hangover. Garnished with jalapeño peppers pickled in-house and flavored with homemade Bloody Mary mix, the Tahitian Mary will have you feeling like your old self in no time.
The brainchild of our intrepid bar staff at 17˚ South Booze & Bites, the Tahitian Mary is the T-Rex of its species. In addition to the aforementioned jalapeños, it contains house vodka, green olives, lime and lemon wedges, bread and butter pickles, a celery stick, tajin and – as a telling testament to its exquisite excess – bacon! How we manage to get it all in the stylishly salted glass is beyond us.
With its ample spice notes, the Tahitian Mary isn’t a cocktail you would necessarily expect to find at tropical Tahiti Village. All we know is this: you’ll be happy you did!

We live in a time when even the unlikeliest of subjects can receive a day commemorating their importance. In May alone we have Scurvy Awareness Day, Hug Your Cat Day* and National Lost Sock Memorial Day in addition to the traditional Cinco de Mayo. Here’s our take on the subject: If a lost sock can bag its own offbeat holiday, why can’t something as important to Americans as travel and tourism have an entire week to itself?
With the advent of National Travel & Tourism Week, now it does!
Spread over seven days in May, we’re celebrating the occasion at Tahiti Village, Las Vegas’ family friendly island paradise and home to more than 40,000 satisfied vacation ownership practitioners.
The theme of this year’s National Travel & Tourism Week is Travel Matters, whereby each of the seven days from May 5-11 is assigned a reason why Travel Matters (as determined by those high priests of the local tourism industry, the Las Vegas Convention & Visitors Authority).
If you want to read in-depth analyses on why Travel Matters, please click here. You’ll learn why getting off your sofa and going places is so vital to our economy, jobs, health and families among other important reasons.
Kid visitors to family friendly Tahiti Village, Las Vegas’ tropical resort retreat, will scramble for hidden goodies at our annual Easter egg hunt on Sunday, April 21. Young collectors and their parents should meet at 9 a.m. inside the Island Courtyard (behind the lazy river) to receive their egg bags and prepare for the hunt, which will go off at approximately 9:15 a.m. for the first age group (up to five years old), 10 minutes later for the second age group (6-12), and 10 minutes after that for the third age group (13 and over).
Once the first group of intrepid hunters collects the eggs, deftly hidden throughout the lazy river, they will return to the Island Courtyard for games, crafts and live music. There they will be joined by the second and third groups sporting their own candy-filled eggs. Fortune will smile on a few lucky hunters in the form of special Golden Eggs, which will contain a voucher the holder can exchange for a special prize.
Here’s the one time of the year where it’s advisable to put all your eggs in one basket. Here’s wishing you a very happy Easter from all of us at Tahiti Village, your family friendly Las Vegas resort!
Las Vegas is famous for being famous. Visited by 42 million people a year, it is a magnet for adrenaline fiends drawn to its 24/7 excitement, games of chance, possibilities of unexpected and instantaneous wealth, Cirque du spectaculars, scintillating shopping and five-star restaurants helmed by celebrity chefs.
As creatures of habit, the individuals who comprise that 42 million generally don’t stray far from the tried and true. You’ll see only the most adventurous of them commingling in the land of the locals, off the Strip and out from under the Fremont Street canopy.
Perhaps you have felt the inclination to join them, to shed the constraints of your comfort zone and enjoy a Las Vegas experience without all the bells and whistles (with apologies to the Pinball Hall of Fame).
With this article as a guide, you too can take the road less traveled by tourists and partake of the many attractions known mainly to residents.
Go ahead for once. Live it up like you live here on your next visit to family friendly Tahiti Village, Las Vegas’ tropical resort retreat.
Bells and whistles indeed! Located on East Tropicana Avenue just minutes from the Strip, the Pinball Hall of Fame is home to the largest collection of pinball machines in the world. The machines belong to collector Tim Arnold and range from 1950s up to the 1990s. Paying homage to the heyday of pinball, the collection features mainly older games from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. You’ll find are no “ticket spitters” here, just pure pinball (and a few arcade novelty games) from the past. You ain’t seen nothing like this in any amusement hall.
The Neon Museum, encompassing a two-acre outdoor museum space in downtown Las Vegas, is home to more than 150 donated and rescued signs dating from the 1930s to present day. The nonprofit organization is dedicated to preserving the history of the city through its art form, the neon sign! The Neon Museum’s collection consists of three components: the Neon Boneyard, the Downtown Gallery and the Las Vegas Signs project.
The Downtown Gallery (Fremont Street at Las Vegas Boulevard) and the Las Vegas Signs Project (located on Las Vegas Boulevard between Sahara and Washington avenues) feature 15 electrified, restored signs installed as public art throughout the downtown area. These signs are available for viewing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Combining a factory tour with thousands of pounds of chocolate equals a must-see (and sample) destination. Located in suburban Henderson, you’ll have to travel just outside of the city limits to visit the factory and take the tour. But trust us, it’s totally worth it! Ethel M also created an amazing botanical cactus garden that adds another dimension to this worthy visit. With over 300 species, it’s one of the world’s largest cactus gardens!
Located in suburban Henderson, about 10 miles east of the Strip, Ethel M Chocolates Holiday Cactus Garden is one of Las Vegas’ favorite holiday attractions. The three-acre Botanical Cactus Garden, adjacent to the Ethel M Chocolate Factory, is a sight to behold during the holiday season and features more than one million lights. Open through January, the annual event is free to attend. Visit us on select nights for choir performances in the garden and photos with Santa!
Las Vegas is for the birds, you say? You may be right. The Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve sits on approximately 140 acres and is home to thousands of migratory waterfowl as well as numerous resident desert birds. There are nine ponds available for birding, surrounded by both paved and soft surfaces. The paved path is approximately 3/4 of a mile long and is accessible by wheelchair. The soft surfaces are mostly level and allow for easy walking. When you visit, expect to do a lot of walking and allow yourself adequate time to visit the area.
It is recommended that you wear appropriate clothing and comfortable, sturdy shoes. Bring water, a hat, and wear sunscreen. If you do not have binoculars, the Preserve will loan you a pair. Please do not feed the birds or wildlife. The Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve is located on the eastern edge of the Pacific Migratory Flyway and many of the birds that come here are temporary visitors. Feeding wildlife disrupts natural feeding behaviors and encourages an unhealthy association with humans. Pets are not permitted at this facility.
The National Atomic Testing Museum documents the history of nuclear testing at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) in the desert north of Las Vegas. The museum operates as an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution.
The museum covers the period from the first test at NTS on January 27, 1951, to the present. Among its exhibits covering American nuclear history is a “Ground Zero Theater” which simulates the experience of observing an atmospheric nuclear test.
Other exhibits include Geiger counters, radio badges and radiation testing devices, Native American artifacts from around the test area, pop culture memorabilia related to the atomic age, equipment used in testing the devices. Other displays focus on important figures at the facility, videos and interactive exhibits about radiation.
In 2012 the museum added an exhibit about Area 51, and expanded the exhibit two years later.
The Mob Museum, officially the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, is a history museum located in Downtown Las Vegas, Nevada.

The Burlesque Hall of Fame in downtown Las Vegas Arts District provides an inside look at the popular art form.

From its controversial debut in the 1950s to its modern-day revival, you’ll have a greater appreciation for the art. Read a timeline of notable events and get an up-close look at costumes through the years. There’s even a “Peek a View” view master kiosk, where you can look at photos of the early days.
The Lion Habitat Ranch is a nonprofit educational zoo that functions as an exotic wildlife refuge center and is permitted by the Department of Agriculture to exhibit lions and other wild animals. It costs about $10,000 per year to feed a male lion, and $8,000 to feed the average female each year. The $25 fees from visiting tourists and from special events go directly to the care of the animals. While lions usually live 7 to 12 years in the wild, the 36 cats that inhabit the sanctuary can reach ages 20 years or more.
An anonymous strip mall whose storefronts are as often vacant as occupied, John Helfer Plaza at 4545 E. Tropicana Avenue may be the only place in town with a store selling Columbian lady pants. Get `em while you can!
