Besides the obvious I would checkout Red Rock. It is beautiful and a fun climb.

I just took my wife to Las Vegas for Valentine's Day!!! We don't gamble (haven't put a quarter in a slot yet, and this was our 4th trip), but there are plenty of other things to see and do. This trip,
we found a fantastic seafood buffet. It is at the Rio hotel/casino,
they have everything imaginable from lobster, to crab legs, raw oysters...on and on!!), and ALL YOU CAN EAT!! And the quality of the food was great!!!! Make sure you go see the Hoover dam, what an engineering marvel!!!!!

Have fun! We're heading there April 29th for 3 days. Staying at Mandalay bay but we'll probably just hang out in the city. This is our first time too, but we don't gamble. We'll be there for the shows, food, booze and spas!

Like christop43 said, Red Rock also Valley of Fire is pretty cool, if you can do the heli ride to the Grand Cannon, that's pretty wild.
I think they also offer atv tour of the cannon as well.
If you can, dinner on top of the Stratosphere is a cool, just make sure it's dusk when all the lights on the strip fire up.
