Fodor's Review:

The Grand Canal Shoppes are the most elegant—and fun—shopping experience on the Strip. Duck into shops like Burberry or Lladró as you amble under blue skies alongside a Vegas-ified Grand Canal. Eventually, all the quaint bridges and walkways lead you to St. Mark's Square, which is full of little gift-shop carts and street performers. If you're loaded down with bags, hail a gondola—it's one of the kitschiest experiences in any of the megamalls ($15 per person).

Two must-see stores are Il Prato, which sells unique Venetian collectibles, including masks, stationery sets, and pen-and-inkwell sets, and Ripa de Monti, which carries luminescent Venetian glass. Also, because Arizona's famous Canyon Ranch spa has an outpost here, there's the don't-miss Canyon Ranch Living Essentials shop, full of cookbooks, body products, and spa robes. The mall is open late (until 11 Sunday through Thursday, until midnight Friday and Saturday).
