An apartment-style motel complex just off the highway in the suburban city of Henderson, all 90 one- and two-bedroom suites at the Siena Suites come with a full kitchen. It's fine for a cheap stay about 20 to 30 minutes from Vegas' major attractions, but despite its nice pool, it is not an ideal vacation destination.

More apartment complex than hotel -- there's a sofa bed and full kitchen in all 126 rooms -- the casinoless Residence Inn is located among the strip malls of safe (suburban) Green Velley. Its rooms are a bit older, but still very comfortable, and if you're after the Strip, a free, 20-minute shuttle heads there six times a day.

This upscale hotel in the Incline Village ski community is set slightly apart from, but is still convenient to, all of the commercial offerings of the town. Situated among pine trees about a five-to-10-minute walk from North Lake Tahoe, the hotel is a good choice for travelers seeking a quiet stay. The property’s 60 residential-style rooms are primarily available as time-shares, but can be rented for shorter stays. Most of the amenities are situated in the adjacent Hyatt Hyatt Lake Tahoe hotel ; these include water sport rentals on the lake, a small pool with a hot tub, a casino, a spa, and a few restaurants.

Far from the Strip and other tourist attractions, Cancun is a family resort with lots of kid-friendly features -- and not much appeal for adults traveling without kids. On-site dining is limited to one restaurant, but the large apartment-style villas feature well-equipped kitchens with full-size refrigerators, dishwashers, and gas stoves. There's a spa and a fitness center, but the best feature is the large pool with a Mayan-style pyramid in the middle. For a family-friendly Off the Strip experience with far more features -- including 11 restaurants -- look into South Point Hotel and Casino.

A half-hour from the Strip, the Hilton Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa is a haven for vacationers and business travelers who prefer the beauty of Lake Las Vegas and the Nevada desert to the glitz of Vegas. With 354 luxurious and understated rooms, an elegant Tuscany-inspired setting, a full-service spa, and a well-maintained pool area, the hotel serves as a relaxing retreat. Families may want to head to the Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa, which has service and style that's on par with the Hilton, but more to keep kids entertained (pool with a slide, basketball courts, water sports, and a playground).

Big apartments at a low price. But poor maintenance, woeful service, dirt everywhere and a remote location make this the worst Las Vegas hotel Oyster has covered to date.

More modern than many Reno hotels, Grand Sierra Resort and Casino is an upscale property that's about a 10-minute drive from downtown Reno, and not within walking distance of other casinos. On-site entertainment is in abundance -- there's a casino, movie theater, bowling alley, a beach-style outdoor pool, and driving range, as well as big-name music headliners plus a variety of restaurants and lounges. The 1,900 contemporary rooms have “spa-inspired” bathrooms, which are particularly impressive and outfitted in striking dark marble. In addition, the hotel offers a spa and fitness center and space for RV hookups.

For those looking for a reasonably priced, one- to two-bedroom suite who don't mind being off the Strip, the Club De Soleil All-Suite Resort is a solid option. But keep in mind: this is a time-share property that also rents rooms. That means guests won't find a resort atmosphere and services, despite the name. For instance, there is no bar and no restaurant. And it's hard to avoid at least one sales pitch. But if that's OK, then guests can get a clean suite or studio apartment style for a bargain price by Vegas standards.
