Treasure Island Hotel and Casino: fixed location and straight-line distances

Treasure Island Hotel and Casino sits 3.5 miles from Las Vegas in straight-line measurement. Road distance is longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or any travel time.

The fixed point this article is describing

For this query, the documented property is Treasure Island Hotel and Casino in Paradise, Nevada. Publicly published reference sources place it at latitude 36.12472222 and longitude -115.17194444.

That matters because this name can refer to more than one property in general discussion. Here, the location data, room count, and opening date belong to the Paradise, Nevada venue only.

Where it sits in geographic terms

The venue is in Paradise, in the state of Nevada. From the coordinates alone, its position is in the southern part of Nevada, and the supplied reference pairs place it close to Las Vegas and Henderson compared with the much larger straight-line figures listed for cities farther across the United States and Canada.

Its documented room count is 2,885, and publicly published reference sources say the resort opened on October 26, 1993. Those figures describe a documented point in time; property counts and physical layouts can change as venues are rebuilt, expanded, or reconfigured.

Documented straight-line distances

The table below reproduces the full set of documented venue-to-place pairs available for this property. Every figure is a great-circle measurement, which means a straight-line reading between fixed coordinates rather than a road route.

How to read these numbers correctly

A straight-line distance is the shortest geometric separation between two coordinates. It is useful for orientation, for comparing relative closeness among reference points, and for checking whether a place is in the same local area or far across the country.

It is not the same thing as a trip you can physically make on roads. Publicly published reference sources for this article expressly treat these as great-circle distances, not driving miles, so they should be read as map geometry rather than route planning.

Why actual road mileage is longer

Road travel has to follow a network rather than a ruler. Even when two places look close on a map, the available roads may bend around developed blocks, terrain, limited-access corridors, or natural barriers before connecting with the destination.

For longer trips, the gap between straight-line and real-world route length grows because highways and local streets do not run directly from coordinate to coordinate. Water crossings, mountain systems, urban street patterns, and cross-state route choices all add detours that a great-circle figure does not capture.

That is why this article keeps the measurements in their original form instead of trying to convert them into informal road estimates. If you need a route, use the venue's fixed coordinates in a mapping service and compare that output with your own starting point.

What the published figures do tell you

The shortest documented pair in the table is Las Vegas at 3.5 straight-line miles, with Henderson at 12.3 straight-line miles. That places the property firmly in the Las Vegas-area geography rather than as a standalone remote resort.

The western reference points in the table are much closer than many eastern ones: Palm Springs is listed at 176.6 straight-line miles, Los Angeles at 225.4, Phoenix at 255.1, Reno at 345.4, San Jose at 381.3, Sacramento at 386.4, and San Francisco at 415.9. By contrast, many eastern and southeastern references are above 1500.0 straight-line miles, including Chicago at 1524.2, Atlanta at 1744.0, Washington DC at 2084.7, Philadelphia at 2174.9, and Boston at 2372.4.

Those comparisons do not give a route, but they do show relative spatial position. They also help readers avoid a common mistake: reading a low straight-line figure as if it were a door-to-door travel commitment.

Name ambiguity and why the city-state pairing matters

The phrase “Treasure Island” can point to more than one property in ordinary conversation. For that reason, the safest way to identify this venue is by the full property name together with Paradise, Nevada.

If you are checking a booking page, map listing, or event page, confirm that it matches the Paradise, Nevada location before relying on any physical-property detail. That step matters more here than with names that are unique nationwide.

What to confirm before you go

Before travelling, confirm the current map pin, arrival instructions, parking arrangements, hotel inventory, and any on-site access details on the property's own official pages. Room counts, branding, and some wayfinding details can change over time even when the underlying location stays fixed.

If you are trying to plan a route from your own starting point, use the published coordinates rather than a name search alone, especially because this name can be confused with other properties. For route length, follow the result in your chosen map service, since that is where current road mileage and route conditions are maintained.

This article also does not publish opening hours, event schedules, or live operating information. Those belong on the venue's own official pages or through its guest-service contact channel, which will hold the current answer closest to your travel date.
