Beautiful hotel, we loved it!

TripAdvisor traveler rating: 4 of 5 stars

This hotel is in Lake Las Vegas and we loved the views and it's surroundings. It feels like you're in a small Italian village, but only about 20 min from the strip. It's very upscale and gorgeous....

Stayed here for 2 nights with my husband. Lobby area is lovely and our room was ok if a little dated and worn looking. Very clean. However the pool area is more like a 3* hotel, very old and tired...

A 4 Star Property and Price... But do not expect a 4 star service, because you will be disappointed. We stayed in this hotel for two nights. I reserved the room for two adults and 8 years old at their...

From the complimentary valet service, to the friendly reservation specialist...this hotel/casino excels above and beyond. We were delighted by the refreshingly large room with comfy king sized bed...

It's lovely here, but I have a few complaints.

Last week my husband and I took our first trip to Las Vegas. We went more for the hiking and sightseeing than the glitz and glam. For those reasons we chose Ravella over staying on the strip. The...

Don't stay on the bridge

I was a guest of the hotel for the weekend (my expenses were comped). That being said, I can't recommend it. We were housed in one of the rooms on the bridge over the lake - because it was near the...

Great location for a nice getaway Only downside was that the AC in our room was loud and didn't really cool the room down

We took the cheap locals rate and decided to go and enjoy the Jazz on Saturday night. We stayed 2 nights and the overall experience was decent. I was suprised that this was once a Ritz Carlton. When...

A former Ritz Carlton recently re-opened under new ownership, we had a lovely one night stay. It was relaxing and quiet. There is a small adjacent casino and a shopping village, but both are fairly...

The Most Affordable Housing Market in America: Las Vegas

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 09:27 PM PDT

According to a study just released by Trulia, the Las Vegas real estate market is #1 in the nation from the standpoint of purchasing a home as opposed to renting your residence. On the basis of this side-by-side cost comparison, southern Nevada is now considered to be the most affordable housing market in America. As perhaps the most dramatic indicator yet that housing across the entire United States has corrected severely (and some say over corrected at this point), in a staggering 74% of the 50 largest cities nationwide, buying a home is now cheaper than renting a home according to the Trulia analysis. Here in Las Vegas, the fact that newly purchased homes can be turned into rentals at rates that exceed the monthly mortgage by a handsome margin explains why investors are trolling our city with gusto and accounting the majority of all completed transactions. A positive cash flow investment in one of the most unique and exciting cities in the world is a hard thing to resist for real estate players, especially these days. Second home – vacation home buyers are also highly enthusiastic about purchasing Las Vegas homes at prices significantly below replacement cost and why shouldn't they be?  The moribund state of the Las Vegas new home market makes clear that current prices on short sales and foreclosures are so far below what builders can compete with that there is literally no point in trying. Thus far in 2011, sales of new homes across southern Nevada have been at rock bottom levels and are on track to set a new record low by years end. Taking all this together, you might be wondering why every person in Las Vegas with a decent job and a decent credit history isn't finishing their rental lease and buying a home straight away. The answer to that question has nothing to do with data and everything to do with emotions. People in Las Vegas and indeed across the country feel highly uncertain about their future economic prospects in many cases. This explains why record low interest rates on mortgages have done so little to stimulate housing demand. Many people are worried about their jobs, worried about their future and in no mood to take out a 30-year loan despite the fact that the cost of money is incredibly cheap. Even incredibly cheap money doesn't look tempting if you are uncertain about the ability to pay going forward in a very cloudy economic environment. It should also be mentioned that accumulating a 20% down payment in this economy is not the easiest thing to do for many people either. All this explains why cash is king and why the majority of homes scooped up at fire-sale prices in Las Vegas are bought by out-of-state investors rather than local owner-occupiers. It will probably continue that way for awhile longer still.
