Inspired by the beauty of centuries-old Mediterranean villages, MonteLago Village is a pedestrian-only experience where streets curve to plazas lined with the new Seasons Market and The Galleries at Lake Las Vegas, lakeside restaurants and quaint outdoor cafes with residential units on the floors above evoking a classic European community.

The 55,000-square-foot village is part of the Lake Las Vegas residential, golf and resort destination, and borders the 320-acre lake. It is adjacent to the Hilton Lake Las Vegas Resort &Spa, and just down the parkway is The Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort &Spa.

Lake Las Vegas Marina, tucked along the water’s edge of the village, offers rentals of canopied electric boats, gondolas, kayaks, peddle boats, the Flyboard Las Vegas Experience, and the newest addition of stand-up paddleboards to transport guests and residents between The Westin and the village.
