It's $20 in total not each day so not much difference. Looking at there website there are no dining prices. Looked at spa and things like that and they were pretty expensive. Think I could afford a manicure if it covered that. A manicure everyday maybe?

A classic manicure at their salon is $95 according to their website.

If it were us, we would use it for buffet, cafe, coffees...as long as we got $20 in value out of it (which we would without question) it would be a no-brainer I think...if it's not actually costing you anything, it doesn't matter so much of the restaurant may be overpriced...you could just grab a snack or coffee and danish or something to use a bit of it a day and come out way better than the $20 you spent...get 2 breakfast buffets one day and you've more than covered the $20 - anything else is a bonus.

the buffet looks to be $15 breakfast M-F, brunch Sa-Su $29, lunch M-F $20, dinner Su-Th $28, Fr-Sa $36

The Breeze Cafe appears to be their coffee shop sort of offering - probably looking at around $15 for a sandwich and chips sort of thing.

You can normally get more info on pricing for restaurants by doing a google search for the restaurant name and reviews - inevitably some will include prices in their reviews.

Can I ask how useful resort credit is at Aria? I booked ages ago for a deal with $50 dining credit but a new deal has come up which is $20 more but offers $50 resort credit daily. It has to be used daily and doesn't roll over. Is this likely to be useful or something we'll never use? ie is the food overpriced and we'll never eat there!

I'd definitely take the $50 a day as it would cover breakfast or snacks. The breakfast buffet was $16 went I went yesterday. The patisserie is also good for breakfast, coffees, sandwiches and snacks. It's quite pricey so the credit would be useful for that (the cakes are excellent). Julian Serano is very good for dinner, depending on how much you ordered you could get quite a few tapas for $50. The 24 hour coffee shop is Cafe Vetro and is standard prices of around $11-15 for sandwiches and burger type stuff. It would also be enough to cover a meal in Todd English Pub. I wouldn't recommend the Thai restaurant though.

I would also take it. We had a same offer at Venetian and either had a huge breakfast in the French place that looks over the pool (name escapes me) or dinner in the Grande Lux.

We also had similar deal with Signature, but found the restaurants it covered at MGM to be a bit.......meh.

You might also ask if its transferrable to other MGM/Mirage properties.

the $50 daily resort credit was to be used at either Aria or Vdara and offer just expired, book by 30th

We go two weeks tomorrow, now that Christmas is over definitely getting excited for our first trip. We're going to a trade show at the Sands Expo centre and still willing to rebook the room if anybody suggests somewhere more convenient and possibly cheaper!

Thanks
