Elara, a Hilton Grand Vacations Club

The Resort & Setting

Elara is a Hilton Grand Vacations Club property at 80 E Harmon Ave, a block or two back from the Las Vegas Strip in Clark County. The building is tall and glassy, with suites designed to sleep more than a typical hotel room — think separate living space and kitchen facilities rather than just a bed and bathroom. Guests consistently rate it well (4.5 out of 5 from over 8,500 Google reviews), with Google's own summary describing it as a "contemporary hotel with sleek rooms & suites offering panoramic views, plus a bar & outdoor pool." It's a typical Hilton Grand Vacations property: polished, well-maintained, and aimed at owners who want a comfortable base rather than a resort complex with its own beach or golf course.

The Area & Things To Do

Location is really the selling point at Elara. It's within easy walking distance of the Center Strip — the stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard packed with casinos, shows, restaurants and the convention and entertainment venues the city is known for. Owners and renters typically don't need a car: the monorail, rideshares and plenty of pedestrian routes connect Elara to the rest of the Strip and beyond. This is a city-break timeshare rather than a beach or ski one — weeks here suit owners whose travel plans revolve around Las Vegas shows, conventions, dining and nightlife rather than outdoor resort amenities.

Selling Or Renting A Week Here

If you're ready to sell or rent your week at Elara, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a private owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, write your own listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission taken on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get their week in front of buyers who are actively searching.

Before you list, it's worth understanding what a resale buyer at a Hilton Grand Vacations property actually receives, as this affects what buyers are willing to pay. According to Hilton Grand Vacations' own fee schedule and club disclosure, resale transfers carry a transfer/resale fee structure from 1 January 2026 of $736 for activation, $504 for the ownership change, and $102 for the estoppel fee — up from $715, $489 and $99 respectively in 2025. HGV's club rules also include a right of first refusal on transfers, which brokers report typically runs for 30 days, so a sale isn't always guaranteed to close with your chosen buyer until that window has passed.

Resale buyers at Elara should also know they won't get everything an original purchaser gets: there's no access to HGV Max, only limited Hilton Honors conversion with no automatic elevated Honors status, and no Open Season booking benefits. What resale buyers do keep is access to RCI, HGV's verified exchange network, for trading their week elsewhere. Brokers quote a transfer timeline anywhere from 4–6 weeks on the fast end up to 60–120 days, so set expectations accordingly when negotiating a closing date.

Practical Notes For Owners & Renters

Renters coming to Elara are usually booking around a specific Las Vegas trip — a show, a convention, a milestone weekend — so flexibility on dates and a clear description of suite size and view will help your listing stand out. Sellers should have their HGV account details, week/points information and any maintenance fee statements ready, since buyers will want to confirm current annual fees directly with Hilton Grand Vacations before committing. Always route enquiries and payment through the marketplace platform rather than off-site, and be upfront about the transfer fees above so buyers aren't caught by surprise partway through the process.
