Before the trip to Maui, I had a trip to Las Vegas to check out the new Aria Hotel with friends.
We stayed at their luxury 2-bedroom suite at Aria Sky Suit, and both the room and the view were really gorgeous! Since we drove from LA, we didn't get this particular service, but if you fly and stay at Aria Sky Suite, they send a limo to pick you up at Las Vegas Airport.
For dinner, we went to Sage, which is one of the fine dining restaurants at Aria. They offer the sophisticated "new American" cuisine by Chef Shawn McClain. We did the 6-course tasting menu ($125) and paired with the wines we brought. The corkage fee at any of the restaurants in Aria is $35/ bottle. It was indeed a very sophisticated delicious dinner. I especially liked the foie gras brulee and the beef dishes. The dessert was nice, too. I loved the canele.
