Five diamonds for the Venetian and the Palazzo mean fun for guests. The resorts just nabbed the AAA Five Diamond Award for 2012. This marks the fifth consecutive year the Venetian has been awarded with this esteemed honor and third consecutive year for the Palazzo.

To celebrate, the resorts are hosting a Five Day, Five Diamond Scavenger Hunt from Aug. 22-26. Visitors and guests will have the opportunity to win exclusive prizes by finding the day’s diamond hidden somewhere different each day throughout both Five Diamond resorts. So follow both resorts at @PalazzoLasVegas and @VenetianVegas to find clues daily.

Post a photo of yourself with the found treasure and use the hash tag #5day5diamond for a shot at winning daily prizes such as a two-night stay at the Venetian or the Palazzo, show tickets to one of the resorts’ acclaimed shows, dinner for two, a private gondola ride, a gift certificate to The Grand Canal Shoppes and The Shoppes at The Palazzo and an extravagant 18-karat white gold pendant with round white diamonds and white diamond center stone exclusively from luxury jewelry designer Simon G. Jewelry. Winners will be randomly selected each day and announced via Twitter.

The AAA Five Diamond Award is the most coveted designation for hotels and restaurants in North America. Representing the upper echelon of the hospitality industry, AAA Five Diamond properties represent less than one-half percent of more than 31,000 AAA-approved properties throughout the United States. Exceeding guest expectations, providing meticulous service and maintaining impeccable standards of excellence are the fundamental hallmarks of the AAA Five Diamond Rating.

The Scavenger Hunt is subject to rules, terms and conditions. For more information, please visit the Venetian at venetian.com or the Palazzo at palazzolasvegas.com.
