Picture this: it’s Friday afternoon, and the Strip is glowing in the distance, but you’re winding through the tree-lined streets of Spanish Trail — one of Las Vegas’s most timeless and exclusive guard-gated communities. The pace slows down. The palms sway. And you’re already thinking about how to spend your weekend.

For those of us in the 50+ stage of life, the perfect weekend doesn’t mean doing less — it means doing what you actually want to do. Whether that’s an early tee time, a long brunch with friends, or slipping into the spa after a day of errands, Spanish Trail living gives you all of that with none of the hassle.

Friday: Ease Into the Weekend

Start with a coffee at Gabi Boutique Donut & Pastry or Mothership Coffee, both less than ten minutes away. Swing through Downtown Summerlin for a little shopping or Pilates at TruFusion, then head home knowing you’ll skip the traffic and chaos of the Strip.

As the sun sets, pour a glass of wine on your patio overlooking the fairway — because the desert light show at golden hour never gets old here.

Saturday: Golf, Gather, or Do Nothing at All

Saturday mornings in Spanish Trail have a rhythm all their own. You’ll see neighbors walking dogs, golfers heading out for early rounds, and friends meeting at Spanish Trail Country Club for brunch.

If you’re in a social mood, it’s the perfect place to connect — the community is filled with professionals, creatives, and retirees who still love to stay active. And if you’re more of a “do-not-disturb” type, your home becomes your private retreat.

8294 Round Hills Cir, Las Vegas, NV 89113

Like my current listing at 8294 Round Hills Drive — a beautifully updated two-story townhome with 2,300+ square feet, spacious rooms, and a bright, open layout that’s perfect for entertaining or quiet weekends in. The price was just improved to $589,900, making it one of the best values in all of Spanish Trail right now.

Saturday Night: The Best of Both Worlds

Here’s the thing about living in Spanish Trail — you can have total tranquility and easy access to the Strip whenever the mood strikes. Grab dinner at Spago, LPM, or Wakuda, and if you’re feeling inspired, head to The Sphere for a show that’s pure Vegas spectacle.

Not in the mood for neon? The Smith Center is just 15 minutes away, offering world-class performances in a setting that feels more New York chic than desert oasis. Either way, you’re home before midnight, no valet line required.

Sunday: Lock, Leave, and Love Where You Live

The beauty of Spanish Trail is in its balance — it’s peaceful, secure, and lush, but only minutes from everything that makes Las Vegas exciting. When travel calls, lock your door and go — this is true lock-and-leave luxury, ideal for seasonal owners, travelers, or anyone who values freedom and flexibility.
