Las Palmas Resort has been a staple within the vacation rental industry in St George for years. It’s located at the southwest side of St George, in the area known as “Green Valley”. It has hosted families for nearly 30 years, making visiting St George a much easier proposition for people. It’s luxury  amenities coupled with some fantastic landscape views right outside your door, makes it a top notch location to stay in St George. Their desert landscaping makes the setting seem just about perfect for those quick weekend getaways, or those longer week stays so you can soak in all of the sites.

The amenities come with pools, fantastic hot tubs, miles of trails right outside your door for hikers, bikers, or those just wanting to take a quick stroll out into the hills. They’ve got great parks to linger in, and sun to soak in while laying by the pool. Some of the best rock climbing in southern Utah is literally right outside your back door, so if it’s a little thrill seeking you’re after they have that as well. Some of the best biking trails around are right outside your back door as well, the trails that basically go right by the rock climbing sections up to the rim overview of “The Gap”.

The resort sits on top of the hill overlooking The Gap, which also gives you great views of the Pine Valley mountains in the distance, as well as the closer Snow Canyon State Park’s red and white rocked hills. Buildings 1 – 8 all have a view of the Rim. The remaining 11 buildings have views either of the pool and amenities, or the Lava Ridge.

The location itself sits on the outskirts of St George, but it sure won’t feel that way. Not only do you have quick access to places like Tuacahn, Snow Canyon State Park, but Pine Valley, Gunlock Reservoir, and more. And truly the drive is only a quick 4 minutes from historic down town St George. Or it’s just a quick couple of minutes to jumping on the freeway to head down to Vegas or Mesquite.

Las Palmas has a lot to offer anyone who stays here. You won’t be disappointed with the amenities, the location, and the upscale feel of the resort.
