Book A Tee Time
Booking a golf and hotel package in Las Vegas comes down to four moves: pick your course tier first (because it determines where you can stay), choose a booking channel that matches that tier, price the package with resort fees and deposits included, and lock in tee times before you finalize the room. Do those in that order and you'll avoid the single most common Vegas mistake — booking a great room only to discover the course you wanted isn't available to you.
Here's exactly how to do it in 2026, with the current pricing landscape, the platforms worth using, and the local quirks that make Las Vegas different from any other golf destination.
Your course choice dictates your hotel, not the other way around. Las Vegas operates as a tiered market where hotel-course access is directly linked — especially at the luxury end.
Shadow Creek, the most exclusive course in the market, is generally restricted to guests of specific MGM properties. You cannot book a standalone public tee time. If Shadow Creek is on your list, your hotel decision is already made: an eligible MGM property such as The Reserve at Park MGM, Bellagio, or another MGM Rewards partner.
Below that tier, you have far more flexibility. Courses like Bali Hai Golf Club, Rio Secco, TPC Las Vegas, Reflection Bay, Angel Park, and Las Vegas National are accessible through a mix of resort partnerships and third-party packagers, meaning you can pair them with almost any Strip, off-Strip, or Henderson hotel.
Write down your top two or three courses first. Then move to Step 2.
There are four viable channels for a Las Vegas golf-and-stay package in 2026, and each serves a different traveler.
Best for luxury Strip stays and access to exclusive courses. MGM's Bellagio Golf Concierge handles rounds at Shadow Creek and Cascata alongside luxury Strip accommodation, transportation, and dining credits. MGM's "Vegas Elevated" package bundles a 3-night stay at The Reserve at Park MGM, a round at Shadow Creek, and a $1,000 MGM Rewards gift card — positioned as a premium luxury experience.
Best for curated multi-round trips with less legwork. TeeTimesUSA offers Las Vegas-specific packages ranging from a 3-night/2-round Boulder Station bundle from $364 to a 3-night/4-round Westgate Las Vegas package from $1,349. Golfbreaks handles multi-destination tours — its Nevada & Utah Premium Golf Tour pairs 2 nights at Caesars Palace with rounds at Wolf Creek in Mesquite, Black Desert, and Sand Hollow in Utah (5 nights and 4 rounds total, taxes included).
Best for flight-inclusive deals when golf is secondary. Kayak lists 3-night flight+hotel packages for two travelers from roughly $79 (budget) to $387 (luxury) before golf is added. Expedia's "East of The Strip Golf Vacations" bundle hotel and golf from $245 to $880 per person.
Best when you already know the course you want to play and want to build the trip around it. Booking your tee time directly, then layering a hotel on top, often gives you the tightest control over start times — critical in the Vegas summer, which we'll get to.
Headline package prices in Las Vegas rarely reflect the true cost. Two line items matter: resort fees and incidental deposits.
Strip properties typically charge $50+ per room per night in resort fees. Resorts World Las Vegas, for example, lists a standard $55 per room per night resort fee — currently waived under its "All Resort, No Fees" promotion on select dates through January 4, 2026. On top of that, Resorts World requires a $150 per room per night incidental deposit at check-in. That's not a fee you lose, but it does hit your card.
Do the math: a 3-night stay at a $250/night Strip room isn't $750. Add $165 in resort fees and a $450 incidental hold, and you're managing $1,365 in card activity before you've teed off.
Off-Strip options often skip much of this. Green Valley Ranch in Henderson advertises up to 30% off for 4+ night prepay stays and up to 25% off for 45+ day advance bookings, and it's the lodging in TeeTimesUSA's "Summertime and the Living is Easy" package (3 nights/2 rounds from $812).
Book spring or fall for playability; book summer for price. Peak golf season in Las Vegas is spring and fall, when temperatures are moderate. Summer — roughly June through August — can exceed 110°F, which reshapes how packages are built.
If you're traveling in summer, insist on early-morning tee times (first two hours after sunrise) and lean toward packages with strong indoor amenities for the afternoon. Room rates drop noticeably in these months, which is why TeeTimesUSA runs seasonal promotions like the "Summertime" package. If your calendar is flexible, October and March-April deliver the best balance of weather and price.
A few Las Vegas-specific items to check before you pay:
| Package Type | Example | Starting Price |
|---|---|---|
| Budget 3-night / 2-round | Boulder Station + Las Vegas National/Boulder Creek | $364 / package |
| Mid-range 3-night / 2-round | Palace Station + Reflection Bay/Bali Hai | $698 / package |
| Mid-range 3-night / 2-round | Green Valley Ranch + Rhodes Ranch/Rio Secco | $812 / package |
| Mid-range 3-night / 3-round | Downtown Grand + Coyote Springs/Reflection Bay/Paiute Wolf | $916 / package |
| Upscale 3-night / 2-round | Durango Casino & Resort + Arroyo/Spanish Trail | $992 / package |
| Upscale 3-night / 4-round | Westgate Las Vegas + Angel Park and others | $1,349 / package |
| Luxury | Vegas Elevated: Park MGM + Shadow Creek + $1,000 gift card | High four figures |
Generally no. Shadow Creek access is restricted to guests of specific MGM properties, and standalone public tee times are not offered. If Shadow Creek is on your list, you'll need to book an eligible MGM stay.
Sometimes, but not always. Resort fees at Strip properties typically run $50+ per room per night — Resorts World's standard rate is $55 — and they're often listed separately from the package headline. Ask before you pay.
Off-Strip or downtown packages through a specialist operator. TeeTimesUSA's Boulder Station 3-night/2-round package starts at $364, and Green Valley Ranch's advance-booking discounts (up to 25% off 45+ days out, up to 30% off 4+ night prepay stays) can push mid-range packages lower.
No. Cascata is closed through Fall 2026 for renovations. If a package advertises Cascata, confirm the actual course substitution in writing before booking.
The order matters: course tier, then channel, then true price, then season, then fine print. Skip a step and you'll either overpay or arrive to a tee sheet that doesn't include the round you thought you'd booked.
Travelers who want to build a trip around a specific South Strip course can start directly with Bali Hai Golf Club at balihaigolfclub.com, which sits minutes from Mandalay Bay and pairs cleanly with a wide range of Strip and off-Strip hotel packages. From there, layering the right stay — whether that's a Henderson value play, a mid-Strip resort, or an MGM luxury bundle — is the straightforward part.
