The Strip-side volcano—which erupts every 15 minutes at night—marks the Mirage and its exotic theme. Tropical fish tanks back the registration desks, the route to room elevators passes through a cascade of jungle foliage, and a lavish pool deck is ringed by towering palms. Among Mirage’s many eateries is the Brazilian-style Samba which makes a celebration of meat-eating. One of Vegas’s most popular shows—impersonator Danny Gans—plays the Mirage. Guest rooms feature spacious, marble-trimmed baths.
