Las Vegas Hotel Rooms with Balconies (That You Can and Can't Afford)

So let's start with the cold hard truth: there are very few hotel rooms in Las Vegas with a balcony. This isn't a coincidence; the Strip’s biggest resorts were designed to keep you inside, which is why casinos have no windows, hallways loop past restaurants and shops, and room layouts point you toward the bed and the TV. Consume, consume, consume! As of print date air is still free (perhaps in 2027 we'll see a Mandatory Oxygen Fee; let's not give them any ideas), so balconies just don't offer much profit potential to the casinos. 

But a handful of properties ignored that logic. The Cosmopolitan built its entire identity around terrace rooms and now has more outdoor-access rooms than every other Strip hotel combined. Paris Las Vegas tucked a few dozen balcony rooms into its Versailles Tower. Wynn gave its ground-floor villas private patios overlooking the golf course. And MGM Grand built a terrace suite with 800 square feet of outdoor space.

We've rounded up every room we know of with real outdoor access, from five-figure bungalows to standard-rate balcony rooms. For each room, we've linked to a video tour so you can see the outdoor space for yourself. Let's jump in.

Bungalow at The Cosmopolitan

The most dramatic outdoor room on the Strip, The Cosmopolitan Bungalow spreads 1,695 square feet across three levels: the bottom level has the bedroom and bathroom, the mid level has a living area, and the top level (this is why you're booking) is an open terrace with a heated plunge pool, Strip views, and daybed seating. There is no other private outdoor pool at this elevation on the Strip. You're welcome.

Naturally, butler service is included. The vertical layout feels more like a narrow townhouse than a hotel room, which isn't necessarily our favorite, but the terrace-level plunge pool is a true star. Check out the video tour below to see the scale.

Wynn Fairway Villa

The Cosmo bungalow looks like a...well, like a quaint bungalow compared to this monster, which the Wynn keeps fairly quiet. The Fairway Villa is one of 34 ground-level villas at 2,411 square feet, each with a secluded patio or balcony that opens directly onto the Wynn Golf Course. It’s the opposite of a Strip-view terrace: green grass, palm trees, zero casino noise. It's almost enough to make you forget that you're in Vegas, except that you are never even sniffing this room unless you're an S-tier gambler or some alternative source of value for Wynn Resorts. Perhaps you pulled the most successful $20 trick of all time?

However you got here, you also get two marble bathrooms with rain showers and soaking tubs, a private massage room, a dining area seating eight, and a $200 daily breakfast credit. Some villas have private pools. Tap the card below to watch the walkthrough; fresh-cut grass smell sadly is not included.

MGM Grand Terrace Suite

MGM Grand Terrace Suite outdoor terrace with city skyline views

Now for something slightly more realistic: the MGM Grand Terrace Suite attaches an 800-square-foot furnished outdoor terrace to a two-story, 1,300-square-foot interior suite. That terrace alone is bigger than most standard hotel rooms on the Strip. We said slightly.

MGM Grand Terrace Suite indoors

Inside you've got vaulted ceilings, marble finishes, and full living and dining areas if you've overdosed on fresh air. The terrace faces the city skyline rather than the Strip itself, which actually makes it quieter and more private; you see the mountains at sunset rather than billboards. If raw outdoor square footage is the priority, nothing else on this list comes close. See the full layout in the tour below.

The Cosmopolitan’s Terrace Rooms

OK, all those suites are nice, you're saying, but if I'm going to spend thousands of dollars on an overpriced Vegas attraction it's going to be tickets to Adele, not the "MGM Grand Terrace Suite." Fair enough. The good news is that there is an option to get some fresh air without sacrificing your firstborn: The Cosmopolitan is the only major Strip resort where terrace rooms are a core product, not a one-off suite. They come in three tiers, and choosing the right one comes down to how much space you need and which direction you want to face.

What they share: Every Cosmopolitan terrace room has a furnished private terrace with glass railing, a king bed, and a bathroom with a deep soaking tub. The differences are square footage, whether you get a separate bedroom, and the view direction. We've found you video tours for all three tiers.

Wraparound Terrace Suite — 1,200 sq ft

Cosmopolitan Wraparound Terrace Suite balcony with strip view

The top-tier Cosmo terrace below the Bungalow. The terrace wraps around the building’s corner, giving you panoramic Strip views from two directions. Inside: wet bar with a Sub-Zero wine chiller, so your friends don't laugh at you when you try to serve them warm albariño on your fancy balcony. "No, it's natural wine, it's supposed to be just below room temperature," you tell them, but they've already left for the Pai Gow tables (just kidding, all Pai Gow at Cosmopolitan is face-up and therefore worthless; they're at Marquee). 


Separate living and dining areas. One bedroom.

Terrace Suite Fountain View — 910 sq ft

Same one-bedroom suite layout as the Wraparound, but facing the Bellagio fountains. The terrace is smaller, but the view is spectacular; you wisely made old-fashioneds this time to take in the fountain show from your private perch.  Separate bedroom, living room, and dining area for four. Try to be nice to the crowds gathered below. They're people too.

Terrace One Bedroom Fountain View — 610 sq ft

The legend, the classic, the working-class hero: the T1BFV is the entry point for a Cosmopolitan terrace with fountain views. Compact at 610 square feet, but you still get a separate bedroom, Japanese soaking tub (we call it the Cosmonsen), and your own terrace with direct views of the Bellagio fountains. If you actually did some work instead of spending all your time watching room tours on Stays In Vegas, this might be within reach.

Versailles Balcony Room at Paris Las Vegas

Paris Las Vegas Versailles Balcony Room with direct Strip view

This is just like that cute apartment we rented in the 6th in the 90s! 


Uh, not exactly; for one, none of the 38 balcony rooms in the Versailles Tower at Paris Las Vegas have shared toilets. On the other hand, these aren’t suites — they’re standard king rooms with a 55-square-foot balcony. No separate living room, no wet bar, no extra-wide pack of Gauloises. Just a bed, a bathroom, and a real outdoor ledge with a railing and a direct Strip view.

But “real balcony on the Las Vegas Strip” is a category with almost no entries, malheureusement. At a fraction of the Cosmopolitan’s terrace prices, it’s the most affordable outdoor space in Vegas. Book the king version if you want more floor space than the double queen; same balcony, same view. Check out the room and balcony view here:

Which one to book

That concludes our review of balconies in Vegas. As you can see, the range here is enormous, from a $200/night room at Paris to a straight-up villa at the Wynn. What they all share is the rare ability to step outside in a city that was designed to keep you in. Stay tuned for more unique room guides here at Stays In Vegas!
