I will be staying at the Rio in September when I come to Vegas for my 50th birthday. The Rio looks great!!!
Glad they are working on bringing it back. The Rio was the party spot 20 years ago. It is great seeing this since just recently videos were being made about the hotel being half abandoned and the colony of feral cats. What a difference in under a year. The folks that posted the Rio in worst hotels will need to make video updates!
i heard about those feral cats! I didnt see any when i was there
When someone spends $516 million dollars the first thing you do is get rid of strays
Aww poor stray kitties 🐈⬛… I’m sure they didn’t get rid of the stray lot lizards 🦎 tho.. 😂
@@briansilva4165 lot lizards will never stay away from the lot but the cats get the f*** out of here
R they bringing back the night club
At a time when Las Vegas is gunning to close down older hotels like the Tropicana and the Mirage, it's great to see Rio is being renovated. Looks like they've got a long way to go to bring it back to what it once was, but they're off to a promising start!! Thank you, Jay Jay!!
Theyre off to a good start! Cant wait to see how it looks in a year or two
Lol, what? No one is "gunning" to close down hotels....The Mirage got bought by the Hard Rock group, and the Tropicana is making way for a stadium which will do more for the strip than that casino ever could
@@rickm2197 You're entitled to your opinion. I'm entitled to mine.
Stayed during Mother’s Day weekend. A huge shout out to the ladies on the casino floor, they definitely were present and serving drinks.
That's awesome to hear!
This is one of your best videos. Great to see the Rio back. I will check it out in July.
Thanks! Enjoy your trip in july!
So great to see that Wine Cellar is open again! First time I ever came to LV I went to Voodoo Lounge, it was and is a spectacular view! Just like this vlog is spectacular!
Thanks my friend! You should pay a visit to the Wine Cellar!
@@Jaycation I intend to soon.
Love the Rio is back ! Sad we are losing the Mirage I got my Mirage ball cap in memory of a great hotel
really going to miss it. The Mirage was awesome!
You wasted your money on something that will never be valuable not even to you....... Do you remember the stardust casino. Iv got casino chips and souvenirs and their worth nothing to nobody
@@zachstricklin4686 just the memories are worth it for some of us. Not everything is about money
I think the building exterior has aged remarkably well design-wise. I always thought it was cool looking as a kid. Glad to see the property is getting some proper attention and money thrown at it.
The wine cellar looks absolutely amazing
It seems like the Rio is reborn again. I hope they bring the Seafood buffet back. 👍👍👍
They totally brought that resort back from despair!
Stayed there last year right before renovations. I still appreciated it for the cheap price, free parking and easily being able to walk to the strip, but you could tell it was past it's glory days. Excited to see all the changes. I'm going to Vegas again in about a month and I think I have decided to stay at the Rio again, thanks for the informative video, like always I appreciate it.
nice! Stay at a renovated room, you'll love it!
As someone who stayed there a few months ago, I am very impressed with the renovations they have done. The rooms are excellent & I appreciate how well the wifi works in the rooms along with the many USB charging ports. I also enjoyed Shogun Ramen & Tony Luke's in the food hall. Definitely going to be staying here again when I am in Vegas in mid August for my birthday.
its very impressive! U gotta try nama nama and the tenders!
I had such a great time at Rio Suites back in the 90s. I’m so happy to see them coming back.
Happy to see it fall into the right hands
Had so many good times at The Rio, and I'm so happy to see it regaining it's former glory! Thank you for the video!
Thanks for this. I'm so happy the Rio is back! I'm bummed they went so neutral in the room though. Nothing there days Rio to me
looks fine to me!
The Rio's transformation looks incredible! Can't wait to check it out in person.
The Rio is back!! I want to see more lighting in some of the dark areas around the hotel. Other than that, Rio is looking amazing. Great review, Jay Jay😊
Exciting to see the revitalized Rio...thanks for another great video Jay😊😊
That suite is like a condo! Thanks for showing us around! 🌴⛲😎
It was a great suite!
Another great informative video. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication.
I've never stayed at the Rio but their Voodoo Lounge was a lot of fun! The last time I visited the place was way back in 2017, my ex and I ordered that Witch Doctor drink and we drank it all and I got F up, I don't even remember how we got back to our room at The Aria. 🤣
haha here's a secret... they made it for me with no alcohol just for the shot! LOL!
@@Jaycation Lol! Yeah, I remember they refuse to serve more than two orders to people because they know it will F you up good. My ex and I only ordered one and it F me up really good. Ha ha!
Yaaaaay such a great news! This excites me to visit Vegas again, i guess its time to use that 4 comp night stay Rio game me! :p
make sure that 4 night comp stay is a renovated room!
@@Jaycation thanks, just checked and it is! 4 nights at renovated ipanema room with $50 freeplay and $25 dining credit.
Wow, those views of the strip are great. Thanks for another awesome review Jay.
Thanks my friend! Headed to your part of the world soon!
@@Jaycation hope you have a great time on your adventures. 🇪🇸
That's where I want to do my big 60th Birthday 🎉 for sure. Thanks for sharing!
Nice! I hope your 60th is an amazing day!
The Rio is our favorite spot in Vegas! Love the suites with tubs
You're the bomb, Jay! Thanks for sharing! xox
Thanks! I appreciate you!
Renovations look great, looks like the Rio is in good hands with the new owners
Looks like another free trip to vegas for Jaycation. that's to Rio! I do appreciate the editorial. I've always liked Rio in the past. may consider for a trip in the future.
definitely wasnt free. i stayed at encore right after and it wasn't cheap!
Oh we’ve been getting offers fr here so we’ve been curious about it 😊 excited for this video 😊
Nice! Make sure to get a renovated room if u book it!
@@Jaycation for sure, thank you! 😊
So great they are reviving Rios. We had a grand time there many years ago😊
I have great memories from there as well!
Jaycation puttin in work! Another banger nice work man 🤙🏼 come on back to southbeach for some tacos 🌮
The views at the rooftop is amazing. Food prices seem a little expensive but It would be worth it just to get that view.
those views are very unique
Stayed here I'm 1999 when it was the hot spot in Vegas..
Awesome job jay drop a like for you
myyy dude
Great video!
Thank you!
Iconic property, nice to see it getting some attention and retaining the theme. It being a Hyatt property is a win too… the points redemption value is really good.
Some of the best views of the strip in Vegas.
Some of the BEST views for sure!
The views of the tunnels from the Rio are eye opening.
Glad to hear Penn and Teller are staying at the RIO . They put on a greatbshow ! #wulffdendad
I hope they do well bringing it back! We have been to the TOP! MrsLaTruce and I had our 4-year dating anniversary on the ZipLine on the top of RIO. It was my second most viewed video!
hahaha i think the zip line is long gone
@@Jaycation yeah? It’s been 8 years lol
That wine celler is cool The Vodoo lounge cool. The views rock. The room very nice.
Loved the Wine Cellar!
I remember we used to go to the Rio for their seafood buffet. Ayce lobster tails. That used to be my reason to visit vegas lol. Sucks they stopped that buffet.
Rio was the first hotel I stayed at in Vegas when I got married. Did visit the hotel 2 other times and was sad how everything went downhill during that time. Glad the Rio got revive and it looks great. Probably plan to visit there again in a year or two.
awesome vids Jay- going to the Aria in June for UFC 303
Hope they bring back the Seafood buffet considered by many as the best in Vegas a couple of decades ago
Won't happen, the carnival buffet area used to be is now the food hall
the AYCE Buffet has great lobster and crab legs and its just across the street from the palms!
who knows... its a big property but it looks like resorts are pivoting away from buffets
Great informative videos.
Bring back masquerade in the sky the best free show in Las Vegas.
Was there a little Drunk-Cation with the wine 🎉😂
cant wait... we are booked for labor day week.
Have a great time!
The renovations look really nice, but they need to bring back the Mardi Gras sky show!
u never know! I hear whatever they do it will be something really fun
@@Jaycationwhere did you buy your Laker Jersey? 🤩
nice one Jay!
Thanks Mary! 🙏🏽
Stayed there for edc Vegas weekend. Very good hotel 👍
Russian river beer amazing. Great video thanks again.
love russian river!
I’m going with my best mate in October for my birthday.
Damn, I may need to stay here next trip.
So happy the Rio is coming back!! Looks beautiful.
Have always wanted to try the Wine Cellar but not a wine drinker so thought it wasn't for me. Now I definitely want to try it.
Spent my 40th birthday at VooDoo Steak and at VooDoo Lounge back in 2006. Had a great time but the Witch Doctor drink was a let down. My friends paid $26 for me to have this huge drink and didn't even get a buzz from it, and I'm not a big drinker. Looks like they improved it.
Thanks Jaycation.
wow im glad you got to visit back in the day!
man I gotta get that Drink to be Hung wine flight - sounds awesome ;-)
Hung is a cool dude!
Jay was absolutely hammered after the Wine Cellar 😂
What's up brother!!! First thing that comes to mind 😂
whats that?
@@Jaycation your thumbnail... Sketch.. special teams special players.. 😀😂
Jaycation your eyes looked like you had some real fun on 4/20...
lol id admit to it but the truth is i woke up from a 30 minute nap and was late to my reservation at voodoo
Very informative
Thanks!
I will visit this casino very soon to check out the renovation results
Awesome RIO memories from the early 2000s for me. Imo, the best view of Las Vegas is at the rooftop of the Voodoo Lounge. This would be my spot on NYE!!
Awesome views!
It definitely looks nicer than when there were cigarette burns in the couches! 😀
haha u remember that video i did 3 years back!?
Staying there in September for my 60th birthday weekend. Thanks for the preview. It looks great!
Any word on whether they plan on reviving the VooDoo Lounge nightclub?
i hear that they're working on it but voodoo steak is only open for now
hi and thanks for the great video on this place! its funny that caesars always runs a place into the ground because they dont know how to run a casino and they let them go to shit!! i hope the new owners the best and with the renovations, im sure they will be sucessful with the rio. good ridens caesars!!
Caesars isnt in my good side at the moment. lol
Sorry Jay. We are at Rio right now and the food at the food court is really, really bad. We had a Philly cheesesteak ($17.50 with tip) that was completely devoid of any flavor and it was totally dry. We then tried the sushi. Cali roll and spicy tuna were worse than gas station sushi, all for the low price of $31.50 with tip. Ended up throwing half of it away. There were also no customers in the food hall. Word is out it is not tasty and way overpriced. Only good thing was the pool. Food and drinks were good and very reasonably priced.
They need to fix it. RIo looks fun on summer
that pool is brand spankin new!
The elevator views to voodoo is lit 🔥
one of the best elevator views in sin city!
I want to stay in that suite a few months. haha 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
make it happen!
I didnt know RIO is back!!! I can't wait to check it out. They need to bring back the crab legs buffet.
the crab legs at the palms are great! Lobster tail too!
Hi Jaycation I watch the News I heard The Mirage Casino and Resorts Are closing down on the 17Th July 2024 getting ready for Hard Rock Guitar and that is very sad
very sad. glad i got to stay at mirage last week
@@Jaycation Very lucky for the very last time
Question? Where do you buy your water and coffee for your room. When you stay on the strip or on Fremont you have the CVS or ABC stores. I stayed at The Rio maybe 20 years ago. I loved the Casino but hated that I had to take a taxi to the strip. Is it still like that? Love watching you!! Keep up the good work.
There is a walgreens directly across the street from Rio but i usually go to ABC Stores on the strip. I use Lyft and it's about 9 bucks to the strip. Thanks for watching!
In Vegas for 4/20 huh? We see you
lol i dont partake but i can see why people think that
My Hyatt employee discount gets me rooms for 99 total here. Im going to see Nas live w orchestra 8/29!
Did they finally heat the pools? Rio always had a nice pool area when all the pools are open but they were always so cold. 🥶
Is there a tub and shower?
I remember that used to be a lot of stray cats there. I hope they didn’t get rid of them. They really relied on the tourist taking care of them if they get sent to the pound, they will be over :(
Is it still hotel guests only?
Hopefully they can buy the hard tock in a decade when it flops!
I wanna go to that rooftop thing
its an amazing view!
You missed the( homeless) guy living under the RiO sign right before you drive inn!
Jay, Do you recall what the Craps table min was?
i dont really check! sorry... im sure it's not crazy high unlike the strip!
Are the elevators still shaking? We stayed there July 2021 and got Covid! The place needs a major renovation!
I am glad Río is coming back from the Grave but
I don’t know why but it’s way too dark inside
But still I am glad is coming back to live once again 😎
🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Jay, when I first started going to Las Vegas in 2001 or 2002, my 2 favorite casinos were the Rio & The Palms. I can't believe both fell into such disfavor & disrepair. Glad to see the Rio is on the way back & the Palms didn't fall into disrepair; Station just decided they did not want it.
just a bit far from the rest of the strip... makes a huge difference. wish there was a monorail to that side but not enough there to justify a build i guess
@@Jaycation The new owners at RIO want a pedestrian bridge from the Strip to RIO
I like the more off strip hotels I’m starting to get more attention because I used to be kind of an isolation island and feel kind of left out but I like that they are upping their game and making it like a fun but I am more quiet, place to get away from the buzz but you’re not missing out on anything
I won't be staying here Jay I may walk in someday to check out some of renovations but that's about it brother. This looks like dream scape is doing a flip property sale with this one. Unlike Hard Rock which is going all in on the Mirage this just seems like a fly by night renovation to get money selling this joint, $600 million invested is not enough and it's still lip stick on a pig and that bathtub is an accident waiting to happen, this time Jay I can't put a happy face on this one we'll catch you on the next video my friend
Too bad they can’t bring back the lasers on the rooftop that could be seen as you drive into Vegas.
the new lights will have to do
What they need to do is increase security and lighting in their garage parking lots. I had a friend get robbed at gunpoint over there last year.
Man Ceasar’s could have invested in this property
👍
yessir
was that Britney playing at 1:32???
Ehh. I was just here for edc24. Didn't look this good when I was there.
A Good start but there is definitely a long way to go. What is interesting they've raised about $800 million for renovations however are only spending $600. Unfortunally this seems like a flip job
Tell me about it this place is still not up to par and it never will be, they should have demolished the entire complex and built something new in it's place
Hello my friend jaycation in Las Vegas my name is Jones Johnson from Louisiana can you find me a studio apartment please my friend
find yourself a realtor! i dont know how to do that lol
Try the jade apartments in las vegas just Google Jade las vegas and you'll see it
My boy must stay in Vegas 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I might have missed the review of the parking garage, which is (still) filthier than OYO, which says a lot.
Just need a tram to the strip now. It's not far and a $20 million investment could save a $800 million resort and bring the strip to the Rio and the guests of the Rio to the strip.
A tram would be amazing! Too bad the 15 is in the way haha
The Rio needs to fix the sewer smell that it has for the last 40 years= at the entry way near the parking garage(near poker entrance area)
Where’s @normageli?? Where are the grandkids we asked for ???!!!
Calm down simp
lol grandkids?!
