Re: Best pool in LV?

Adult (topless): Bare at Mirage, Club Moorea at Mandalay bay. Looking forward to seeing the new ones at Aria and Golden Nugget this year as well, as well as the M resort.

Non adult: Hard to beat Mandalay bay for overall, but I hope you like LOTS of little kids around.

Really any of the mega resorts have great pool areas. Cannot really go wrong with any of them.
I have been to the new one at the M resort as well. Very beautiful there.

Flamingo

Overall vibe:

This hotel hosts a 15-acre tropical oasis with four pools amid pounding waterfalls and mature foliage.

Wow factors:

• A 150-foot water slide that drops into a series of terraced pools.
• Swim-up blackjack and refreshment bars within paddling distance.
• Decorative ponds (not for swimming) are stocked with koi and contain a mini-park of Chilean flamingos, tropical birds and turtles.
• An 80-foot-long heated pool, flanked by 10-foot-high pink flamingo fountains.




Golden Nugget

Overall vibe:

A downtown venue that teems with real sea life and a three-story water slide.

Wow factors:

• A 200,000-gallon saltwater tank with five species of sharks and several types of game fish.
• The clear-tubing slide that tunnels straight through these shark-infested waters.




3. MGM Grand

Overall vibe:

This big hotel has five pools in a 6.6-acre water complex.

Wow factors:

• Three whirlpools, fountains, bridges, waterfalls, plenty of garden shade.
• A 1,000-foot-long lazy river ride that takes 10 minutes to meander.
• Areas to play table tennis and water volleyball or rent inner tubes, rafts or other pool toys.




4. Mandalay Bay

Overall vibe:

Wave power? This resort gets kudos for putting 6-foot-high swells in the middle of the desert.

Wow factors:

• The "back 11" for energetic kids.
• Waves as high as 12 feet have been sighted, although 2 feet is the norm. (No surfboards here, but body surfing is sublime.)
• 1,700 tons of sand imported from California.
• Lush foliage enveloping four pools, including the Euro-bathing Moorea Beach Club.
• Lazy river water ride.




5. Mirage

Overall vibe:

A little Tahiti and a little Disney right at center Strip, with slides, six waterfalls pouring over shaded grottoes and lushly landscaped pool lagoons.

Wow factors:
• Six Atlantic bottlenose dolphins (including a baby) live near the pool area. Cost: $15 buys you a ticket to enter Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and the Mirage Dolphin Habitat ($10 for kids 4 to 12, 3 and younger free).
• A quarter of a mile of swimming options with two pools, lots of gullies and coves and three slides in varying shapes and heights.
• Pool rafts for rent.




Also check out Caesars.

Depends what you are looking for?  

From a pool alone standpoint Mandalay is the best with the river, wave pool, and sandy beach but very crowded.

Was at Aria recently, pool itself is just ok but the eye candy at the pool was top notch.  Actually the eye candy at that resort was off the charts all over.  The bars inside late a night were just packed with beautiful women.

MGM pool is good with the river and waterfalls. Wave Republic wasn't that great, not worth the money.  Not much eye candy.

Flamingo has a nice pool but hotel needs some work.

Bellagio has very large beautiful pools, pretty quiet.

Venetian pool is nice

Monte Carlo actually has pretty nice pools.

Mirage pool is nice but the whole place could use an updating.  No eye candy.

Paris pool not so good.

Planet Hollywood pool is not so great either.

The pools at the resort hotels/casinos are usually not heated, so therefore are only open during the summer months, sometimes in to early fall.  From reading your post, you may not need to worry about this.

What is much more frustrating is that the swimming pools are only open during daylight hours, the hotels close their pools before the sun goes down.  On its face, this doesn't make sense.  When it's a hot summer day (around 110 degrees F) the best time to swim or otherwise be at the pool is after the sun goes down.  However, the hotel/casinos do not want people at the pool at night time.  If you are laying around the pool (or swimming), you are not at the tables gambling, you are not at the shows buying admission tickets, and you are not at the restaurants buying food and drinks.  In other words, you are not spending money!

I like M Resort's Pool or Red Rock..

they are smaller scale and the ladies don't have to wear makeup and ugly stripper heels to hang in the sun!
