Elvis: Back in Vegas after 40 Years!

Who could possibly be a better incentive to sell timeshares then Elvis Presley? Well, maybe not Elvis himself, but an unprecedented exhibition direct from Graceland featuring hundreds of Elvis artifacts representing the entertainer's illustrious career. Last week, the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino kicked off Graceland Presents Elvis: The Exhibition to great fanfare. The current generation of timeshare buyers particularly millenniums, want that extra something that compels them to make a purchase. The Westgate is hopeful this will be just the ticket.

The Exhibition and live shows will celebrate the life and legacy of Elvis. He holds the Vegas record for show attendance - 837 consecutive sold-out shows at the Westgate property when it was the LVH-Las Vegas Hotel and Casino. Guests will experience a journey through Elvis' life from start to finish "showcasing the man, the performer and the music that revolutionized popular culture around the world".

The Elvis Exhibition is expected to be the type of quality tour generation that stimulates potential buyers' attention and brings them into the resort experience. It's open to exchange guests, hotel guests and Westgate owners, but of course, owners are treated exceptionally well, and visitors will get to see how great it is to be an owner.

The Exhibition adds one more incentive to an all-ready exciting assortment of existing incentives. The resort has a 95,000 square foot, high energy casino featuring Baccarat, classic table games and state-of-the-art slot machines. The crystal chandeliers that line the ceiling and elaborate interior evoke the feeling of stepping back into the lavish, classic Las Vegas of years past.

The resort offers a variety of restaurants, luxury accommodations, world-class spa and fitness center, pool with bar and private cabanas, and a great location just one block from the strip. A monorail picks guests up from the front steps of the resort and whizzes them to the strip.

The Westgate is no stranger to our generation. It's central Florida resorts, the Westgate River Ranch Resort and Rodeo, Westgate Vacation Villas Resort and Spa, and Westgate Lakes Resort and Spa, provide guests with easy access to the many theme parks of Orlando. Guests are treated to complimentary transportation to attractions, and discounted theme park tickets, along with the resorts’ 5-star amenities. 

While other Vegas resorts have plenty to offer in the way of casinos, entertainment and upscale accommodations, none of them can offer Elvis.

Bluegreen Getaways and Elvis.com Winner Takes Family to Vegas

Bluegreen Getaways Partnered with Elvis.com to give away a vacation fit for a king. The winner just returned from his family trip to Las Vegas.

Pete S. of Beaumont, CA, won a trip to Las Vegas. His prize package included a 7-night stay at Bluegreen Club 36 Resort in a Presidential Suite- 2,500 square feet of elegance, including three lavish bedrooms, a kitchen and an entertaining media room. Pete also received $2,500 in cash.

Pete was casually surfing the Internet when he saw the contest fit for a king and decided to roll the dice on a Las Vegas getaway.

“I was really happy when I found out I won,” Pete said. “I called my wife right away to let her know.” Pete vacationed with his wife and two children.

He says the prize made for the ideal family trip, because Las Vegas happens to be only three hours from where he lives.

Bluegreen’s strategic partnership with Elvis.com was designed to bring more than just vacation packages to the site’s audience.

 “The sweepstakes was created specifically for Elvis Presley Enterprises to give fans a chance to win a great experience from Bluegreen Getaways,” said Marco Merida, Vice President of Marketing Alliances for Bluegreen.

“Elvis Presley Enterprises is proud to have partnered with Bluegreen on this sweepstakes to send Pete to one of Elvis’ favorite cities: Las Vegas, NV,” said Jane Mims, Marketing Account Manager for Elvis Presley Enterprises.

“Elvis Presley’s Graceland in Memphis, TN will celebrate his love for Vegas in 2013 & 2014 with a new ‘Elvis: Live from Vegas’ exhibit.”
