Oasis Casino at the Dunes Hotel (Las Vegas, Nevada)

The below postcard image of the Dunes Hotel and Oasis Casino was taken from my grandparents collection of travel memories. The image depicts the addition of the Oasis Casino onto the Dunes property in 1983.

The rear of the postcard reads,

“One of the world’s great showplaces is ever-expanding, ever growing, with the “Oasis,” a glass-walled casino-in-the-round and “Xanadunes,” a futuristic arcade game bazaar. The DUNES also features gourmet dining in the luxurious “Sultan’s Table” or “Dome of the Sea” and spectacular entertainment in the Casino Theatre. Recreation facilities include 2 swimming pools, 5 tennis courts, and the 18-hole championship Emerald Green Golf Course and Country Club.”

The Dunes was imploded and removed in 1993 to start construction of Steve Wynn’s Bellagio on the property.

The above postcard image is dated from approximately 1987 and states “Viewed at night, this elaborate hotel affords an exotic addition to the millions of lights along the famous “Las Vegas Strip.”

Robert Goulet anyone?

    My first visit to Las Vegas was a week’s stay at the Dunes in the summer of 1981. We ate most of our meals at the Savoy Room restaurant inside the Dunes hotel and casino. The Oasis casino was not there at that time. I can remember that the MGM Grand that was across the street, was closed due to a major fire. Ballys is now where the old MGM used to be.
    It was sad to see the Dunes imploded to make room for the Bellagio. I really loved to see that large Dunes sign lit up at night.
