💎 What Happens in Vegas… Goes in the Treasure Chest

Jewel the Treasure Chest

Vibe: Sparkly, curious, and full of surprises
Loves: Hidden gems, luxe details, and finding beauty off the beaten path
Catchphrase: "Seek wonder. Find treasure."
Jewel’s not just about gold—she’s about meaning. A natural adventurer, she believes the best travel moments are the ones you never saw coming.

A sparkly weekend of surprises, water shows, and hidden gems in the heart of Vegas.

Not all treasure is buried—some of it sparkles under neon lights. This weekend, Jewel the Treasure Chest took her sense of wonder to the one and only Las Vegas. A city made for surprises, it was the perfect playground for a Buddy who’s all about hidden gems and dazzling details.

Her first stop? The Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood. With over 170 stores and restaurants, Jewel was enchanted by the hourly indoor water shows—complete with color-changing lights and music that danced through the air. (Fun fact: the shows happen right inside the mall, no need to head outside into the desert sun!)

She wandered through the faux streets like a true explorer, pausing for selfies beneath glowing signage and indulging in a little treasure hunting of her own (yes, she did find a sequin-studded mini backpack she’ll never part with).

And though she didn’t pull the lever herself, Jewel couldn’t help but be mesmerized by the shimmer of Planet Hollywood’s casino floor. Home to more than 80,000 square feet of gaming space, this spot has hosted everyone from movie stars to music legends—and now, one very sparkly chest.

Vegas itself is full of curiosities Jewel adores: it has more hotel rooms than any other city in the world, its Strip is technically not in the city of Las Vegas (it’s in Paradise, Nevada), and the iconic lights can even be seen from space. But for Jewel, the real jackpot wasn’t in chips or coins—it was in moments: glowing fountains, unexpected beauty, and that feeling that something amazing might be waiting around the next corner. Because let’s face it—Vegas isn’t just a destination. It’s a treasure map.

Catchphrase of the day: “Seek wonder. Find treasure.”
