Season-ending luau to benefit the hungry of Las Vegas a great success!

We at Tahiti Village extend our sincere thanks to everyone who helped make our 2018 season-ending luau to benefit Three Square food bank a great success. In case you missed it, we live-streamed the event on our Facebook page and for every share donated one meal to Three Square. We are happy to report that the final live stream had more than 37,000 views and enough engagement for us to donate 3,000 meals! We thank all our friends on social media who contributed to this great cause and helped feed the hungry of Las Vegas. Our weekly Sunday luau resumes next May, and we hope to see you here for another fun-filled summer of great food and entertainment.

It’ll be fun, fun, fun this Labor Day weekend at Tahiti Village!

The last long weekend of summer comes to a close at Tahiti Village with an abundance of enjoyable poolside activities and a special luau to benefit Three Square foodbank of Southern Nevada.

The fun starts at 1 p.m. Saturday at our tropical beach pool with a DJ playing tunes till 5 p.m. and Mermaid CaySea entertaining our younger guests from 1-2 p.m. CaySea will also lend her face painting talents from 2-5 p.m. At 6 p.m. singer-guitarist Nick Mattera from our weekly Acoustics & Ale show takes over for a full two hours of unplugged bliss.

On Sunday both the DJ and Nick Mattera return for another round of poolside entertainment. There will also be games, prizes and more on both days as well as Sno-Cones from 3-5 p.m. in our Manihi Isle, the long stretch of green between the pool and the lazy river.

On Sunday night our Bacardi-sponsored summer luau concludes for the year with a Facebook event to benefit Three Square food bank of Southern Nevada. For every person on social media who shares the live-stream event from our Facebook page, we will donate one meal to Three Square up to 10,000 meals to help feed hungry children in the Las Vegas area. As always, the show begins at 7 p.m. and features wonderful entertainment and delicious cuisine.

Las Vegas radio station 104.3NowFM and DJ Supa James will be broadcasting remotely from our luau location, the beautiful Island Courtyard. Be sure to share our Facebook event to benefit Three Square and the hungry children of Southern Nevada.

This weekend we are also unveiling our new signature Tahiti Village drink, the Bacardi Dragon Berry Limónade. It will be available at the main pool bar and 17 South Booze & Bites starting Saturday. The Bacardi girls will also be pouring samples of this delicious new drink at the luau – yet another good reason to attend!

 

Can Seth Grabel fool Penn & Teller? Watch and see this Monday night!

Back in February, a month before his big TV taping for Penn & Teller’s Fool Us magic competition show, spectacular Tahiti Village magician Seth Grabel proclaimed: “It’s going to be one of the craziest things I’ve ever done.”

Immediately and without prompting, he proceeded to describe in graphic detail what can only be called a date with digestion, then made us promise not to reveal the gory specifics. (We promise, Seth!)

Fool Us brings together magicians to perform tricks in front of Penn & Teller. If the famous duo cannot determine how a trick was done, the magician who performed it will get the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to perform as their opening act at the Rio Hotel & Casino right here in Las Vegas.

Without revealing whether he fooled Penn & Teller or not, Seth said “I did exactly what I planned to do, which is perform the biggest stun ever seen on the show. We made magic happen, and I accomplished my goal of pulling off a stunt I have been thinking about for years.”

The episode, filmed in March, will air Monday, June 23, from 8-9 p.m. on the CW network (KVCW Channel 33 in Las Vegas) right after Seth’s regularly scheduled Monday night performance from 7-8 p.m. in our Tahiti Village Kahiko Room. Don’t miss it!

Mermaid CaySea is making a big splash in our tropical beach pool all summer long!

Mermaid CaySea, the wondrous result of an unlikely coupling, has found a new home here at Tahiti Village. Her arrival, like her spectacular speckled fin, is a source of great mystery. On Monday, May 28, the blonde hybrid turned up on a cart outside the gate of our tropical beach pool and asked to be wheeled into the water. Although her origins were unknown and her motives unclear, her charm and beauty cast a mesmerizing spell on our pool staff – and they had no choice but to carry out her wishes.

Once inside the pool, CaySea cut through the water like a born descendent of Poseidon, her taut tail smacking the water like a pastel paddle, and she made a beeline for a group of children frolicking in the shallows near the sandy beach bottom entry. Like our pool staff, they immediately clustered around her and were instantly captivated by this most unusual creature. CaySea read them “tales” from her mermaid book and engaged in playful games with colorful plastic eggs.

An hour passed by like a minute, and just as quickly as she had arrived, CaySea announced it was time for her to go. “Noooooo,” cried the kids in unison. She explained that her unique physiology allowed her to stay in chlorinated pool water for just 60 minutes a week, but that she’d be back the same time the following Monday and every Monday thereafter throughout the summer.

You can “catch” her from 2-3 p.m. To quote Mermaid CaySea herself, it’s a “fin-tastic” fun time for all!

Bring on the heat! Summer is officially here with the arrival of our Weekly Sunday Luau!

 

Gorgeous girls in coconut bras! Daring fire twirlers! A guy with a ukulele! Our signature summer event, the popular Sunday Luau, is back for another great season beginning Sunday, May 27. Join us in our spacious Island Courtyard every Sunday all summer long for a great evening of entertainment from Hot Lava. New to the luau for 2018 is a rotating menu of Island-inspired cuisine from Chef Jason – you’ll never have the same thing twice (or at least not two weeks in row!) – and a new luau drink menu sponsored by Bacardi and Red Bull.

As always, the Hot Lava singers, dancers, and musicians will thrill, delight, and whisk you away to a tropical paradise right here in the desert. Their island offerings include a mix of fun Polynesian songs and hula dances with audience participation. Things really heat up when a master fire twirler hits the stage. You’ll be on the edge of your seat!

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Dinner begins at 7 p.m. with the show to follow. For current VIP and general admission pricing and to reserve your tickets, please call the concierge at (702) 440-6915 or visit the concierge desk in the Tahiti Village main lobby.

Magic Monday! See the amazing Seth Grabel on his new day and time!

Our popular Sunday afternoon magic show starring Seth Grabel is disappearing from its usual day and time and reappearing Monday nights through Labor Day. The first show on the new day is scheduled for 7 p.m. May 28 in our intimate Kahiko Room, where Seth has performed his amazing up-close magic since January.

Seth, an America’s Got Talent semifinalist, will astonish you with a seemingly inexhaustible supply of sleight of hand trickery, astonishing utensil manipulation, mindboggling levitation, and dexterous card virtuosity.  Seth’s sheer magic mastery compares with any Las Vegas magician you might name, and he is the equal of where audience interaction, participation and fun are concerned.

Don’t miss the incredible Seth Grabel on your next visit to Tahiti Village. Tickets are available at the concierge desk in the main lobby building or by calling (702) 440-6915. Grab some before they disappear!

How much longer are we keeping the gold in our Tahiti Village logo? Unteal the Vegas Golden Knights complete their historic run!

What began as a short-term mandate from the Mayor to ban teal in Las Vegas during the Golden Knights’ playoff series with the teal-clad San Jose Sharks has received an indefinite extension at Tahiti Village.

Rather than restore the teal to our logo following the Knights’ second round NHL playoff ouster of the Sharks, as initially planned, we are instead keeping the replacement gold for as long as the Knights remain alive in their quest for the Stanley Cup.

“Although teal is one of our branded Tahiti Village colors, as a proud partner of the Knights, we will maintain the gold in our logo for the rest of the season,” said Aaron Lewis, Somerpointe Resorts Director of Marketing. “Besides, we think the gold is starting to look pretty good on us!”

Tahiti Village invites Golden Knights fans to participate in its Somerpointe Resorts Golden Knights Giveaway for the chance to win Knights merchandise, game tickets, and Somerpointe Resorts Las Vegas room stays, including the grand prize “High Roller Package” for two. Lucky winners will receive two VIP glass seats, allowing them to get up close and personal with their favorite players.

Go, Knights, Go!

No fooling: Annual Easter egg hunt set for this Sunday, April 1st!

Easter Sunday is shaping up to be a hopping good time for the entire family at Tahiti Village, starting with our annual Easter egg hunt on April 1. Young collectors and their parents should meet at 9 a.m. inside the Island Courtyard 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 their eggs, deftly hidden throughout the lazy river, they will return to the Island Courtyard for games, crafts and live music. They will soon be joined there 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 wishing everyone a very Happy Easter!
