Steve Wynn: Where success meets luxury????

In this clip, legendary casino developer Steve Wynn recounts the origin story behind the naming and inspiration for one of Las Vegas' most iconic luxury resorts: the Bellagio.

While on vacation in Italy, Wynn was staying at the famous Villa d'Este hotel on Lake Como. A friend invited him to take a boat ride across the lake in an antique Chris-Craft boat for lunch at a picturesque village situated right in the middle of the lake named Bellagio.

After enjoying lunch and strolling around the charming town, Wynn and his friend boarded the boat to return to their hotel.

Struck by the beauty of the name, Wynn remarked on how pretty the word "Bellagio" sounded and wondered aloud what it meant. His friend looked up the definition on the spot and shared it with him: "a place for elegant relaxation."

Hearing that definition was the lightbulb moment for Wynn. Realizing that "a place for elegant relaxation" perfectly encapsulated the exact atmosphere, high-end experience, and emotional experience he wanted to offer guests on the Las Vegas Strip, he immediately that he had found the perfect name for his flagship hotel.

Wynn closes the story by reflecting on how elements as simple as water, travel, and language came together to create an enduring piece of Las Vegas history.
