At opening on December 22, 2005, the South Coast was the first megaresort located south of McCarran International Airport and the Las Vegas Strip. The hotel contained 662 rooms and 800,000 sq ft (74,000 m2) of space that was not finished and was available to be converted into restaurant or casino space.
