The Fontainebleau Las Vegas is a luxury resort and casino on the Las Vegas Strip in Winchester, Nevada. It is owned and operated by Fontainebleau Development; is a sister property to Fontainebleau Miami Beach; and sits on the 24.5-acre (9.9 ha) site previously occupied by the El Rancho Hotel and Casino and the Algiers Hotel. Originally proposed by developer Fontainebleau Resorts, owned by Jeff Soffer, the property's owner and developer has changed several times since the project was announced in May 2005.
