Well, just decided a couple days ago that my girlfriend and I are going to go to Las Vegas at the end of the month as well.

Did a hell of a lot of research since last night.

A lot of websites have the exact same vacation packages available, just for slightly different prices. I compared like 5-6 of them side by side with the exact same search (yielding the the exact same results) and in the end, http://www.traveltst.ca/ was the cheapest. In the end, we chose a 3-night package at The Orleans and everything came to a bit under $1300 total. It's possible to save about $300 if flying out of Bellingham. We decided to not bother doing that.

After a LOT of contemplation, we decided The Orleans was the best package. It's close enough to the strip, and seems to have the best bang for the buck by far. In all my research so far, I haven't read a single bad thing about The Orleans yet.

The same package for any decent strip hotel is $300 more per person.

The Orleans has a 24-hour 70-lane bowling alley... overnight bowling is $1 per game.

Apparently their buffet is very decent and for like half the price of other places.
