Oprah Winfrey recently announced plans to purchase seven villas at The Resort at Fisher Island Club.

A guest once asked a butler at the Grand Velas Riviera Maya how to purchase an elephant for an upcoming wedding.

The Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino has canceled the much-anticipated Michael Jackson ONE show due to delays in construction of the main stage. Instead, the hotel is showcasing a few of the late artist’s personal items.

The Roosevelt New Orleans has received the prestigious Chairman’s Award for its “extraordinary contribution to the development of downtown New Orleans.”

The Dream Downtown just announced it will be closing the hotel’s popular Marble Lane restaurant and replacing it with Guy Fieri’s new project, The Meatpacking Grill.

Oprah once owned a villa on the island, but she has not announced any plans for extending her real estate.

The guest was planning a last-minute wedding at the resort, and gave him less than 24 hours notice.

The Michael Jackson ONE show is still happening (premiers on June 29), but the hotel is also displaying some of Jackson’s memorabilia, on loan from the artist’s estate.

The hotel brought back the iconic building’s elegant look with a top-to-bottom refurbishment.

The Marble Lane will not be closing, and Guy Fieri has only announced new projects in Las Vegas.
