Featured Best Pools in las Vegas

It probably doesn’t come as a surprise that The Flamingo Pool is considered one of the best in town. The entire hotel boasts a tropical theme that will have guests longing for a beach the second they walk in. Although far from the tropics, the Flamingo delivers an island paradise like none other in Vegas. Many hotels offer themed pools that are relaxing and fun, but none offer the Caribbean feeling that seems to come almost effortlessly at the Flamingo Pool.

The Flamingo Las Vegas has one of the most stunning and memorable pools on the Strip. Fifteen acres of tropical fantasyland and wildlife habitats are open year round. The luxurious landscaping includes four pools (including the original oval-shaped pool from Bugsy Siegel’s era), two whirlpools, waterslides, and a special upper deck pool with swim-up blackjack.

Real penguins, flamingoes, swans and exotic birds wander the oasis as people swim beneath stone grottos and waterfalls, overshadowed by palm trees. The plush surroundings are also a popular landing-ground for families and kids. There are a series of waterslides and children’s pools that separate a special area perfect for families. There are also rafts and pool toys available.

The Flamingo Pool isn’t just for families. It’s also a perfect spot for a romantic get away. Couples can rent side by side lounge chairs on one of the “islands” (partially surrounded by water) at the lagoon pool. Poolside service includes food and drinks from a bar that specializes in frozen drinks. Towel service is also included.

There are several cabanas available for rent and they are all complete with the normal Vegas poolside extras like TVs, fruit trays, and rafts. Cabana rates vary based on weekday, weekend or holiday times, and you must be 21 years of age or older to rent them. However, be sure to get the pool area early during the summer. It is not unlikely that even open areas of concrete will be occupied completely by around noon.

There is also a European (topless) sunbathing area called Go Pool on a higher level of the hotel that is for adults-only. It is in hidden spots like these, where the true flavor of Sin City comes alive.

Best things about the Flamingo Pools:
- Gigantic oasis with amazing tropical landscaping
- Unique wildlife habitat

The Pool at the Venetian Las Vegas Hotel

The Venetian Hotel and Casino offers a taste of Italy both inside and out. The pools at the Venetian offer a sophisticated five-acre environment with great amenities and service. The main pool area has a spa and three pools- two standard pools and one lounge pool. There are 25 cabanas available and four partially enclosed pavilion beds. Poolside amenities include cocktail service and a full-service bar with televisions for watching sports while enjoying the atmosphere of the pool deck. Food is available at the poolside eatery, Riva by Wolfgang Puck. There is a great pool retail store and sizable hot tub. The environment at the Venetian pool deck is both soothing and relaxing. The main pool area has an oversized rectangular pool that is perfect for laps or just relaxing in the shallow areas. The pool is surrounded by beautiful columns and perfectly manicured gardens made to resemble one of the many bathing areas seen in Venice. There is also a very shallow lounging pool with water levels that barely cover the bottom of sunken lounge chairs. This area is perfect for relaxing in a lounge chair while still feeling the refreshment of the water. Ladies can relax in the pool, without even getting their hair wet. This is also a great area for adults and kids because it’s shallow enough for children to play in without moms having to worry. There is also a quieter, more secluded pool which can only be accessed through a separate entrance at through the Venezia Tower. This pool is small and is slightly shaded for those looking to enjoy a book, instead of bake in the sun. For a pool experience on a different level, Tao Beach is a seasonal private outdoor club located poolside at the Venetian. The party here can get a little crazy early in the day and this is one of the main reasons that Venetian is on our list of Best Pools. There is a special entrance to this trendy scene and it’s only open to adults 21 and over. Tao Beach is a great place for Vegas visitors to start their afternoons drinking to carry them through the night and give them a taste of the intensity of Tao Nightclub. And for the snow birds, enjoy the select pools that are heated and open even during the “cooler” fall and winter months. Check with hotel for pool hours; varying season to season. Best things about the Venetian Pools: - Relaxing, comfortable and luxurious environment - Everything you need in one area including great food and bar - Great service - Trendy hotspot at Tao Beach - Spacious surroundings with spa

- Great poolside services
- Lifeguards on duty at all times, in pool season

The Wynn Las Vegas is considered by many as the best hotel in Las Vegas so it’s only fitting that the pool area at Wynn has made our Top 10 list. Just like the impressive resort, the pool is equally as special with two spacious, circular pools that are connected by a long channel of water, which is always at the perfect temperature. Magnificent architecture and planning are behind this outdoor masterpiece that offers a new level of elegance when it comes to rest and relaxation.

Cabanas are available for rent and there is a special VIP area for those staying in the Tower Suites. The cabanas at the Wynn are different than anywhere else- they are permanent fixtures with concrete walls that act as mini guest rooms that even offer central a/c and ceiling fans. Plasma televisions, sofas and exclusive personal service come with cabana rentals. But make sure to get there early for a cabana as they can get booked quickly.

There is no pool in Las Vegas that has more young hip people than the Hard Rock and it’s no wonder that it is in our Top 10 when it comes to Las Vegas pool scenes. Named by the Travel Channel as one of the Top 10 pools in the world, the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino offers layers of soft sand, both in its pools and on the lushly landscaped beach, making guests feel like they are partying like a rock star on a Polynesian island. The Hard Rock Las Vegas Hotel and Casino throws some of the most amazing pool parties on the planet. Most notably, Rehab, the Sunday pool party brings the fun out of everyone as the fun continues long into the evening.

So what makes the Hard Rock pool so special? Well first of all, it’s almost not fair to call it a pool. The Hard Rock offers a full size man-made beach and if the underwater sound system doesn’t impress, then the mermaids swimming in the pool or the go-go dancers might. The cabanas, that resemble Tahitian huts, come equipped with private refrigerators, personal misting systems and exclusive amenities. The cabanas, however, are hard to get so reserve in advance.

Those looking to swim a few laps should take the lazy river to one of the more traditional pools at Hard Rock. However, swimming is really not the name of the game at the Hard Rock Pool. It’s more about chilling out in the water and people watching.
This grownup party scene is usually packed with women in their 20’s and 30’s in barely-there bikinis. Food and drinks are available throughout the day, and the bar is often the place to be.

Best things about the Pool at the Hard Rock Las Vegas:
- One of the Top 10 Pools in the World, named by the Travel Channel
- People watching
- Rehab Sundays
- Great music, food and bar
- Swim-up gambling and bars
- Exclusive amenities like private cabanas

The secret behind this tropical oasis is right in the name. What is a Mirage? Well, in most cases, it’s water! The too-good-to-be-true pool area at the Mirage has two main pools that are connected through a series of dramatic waterfalls and lagoons. Just like the hotel, the lush, tropical landscaping of the pool area is much more than expected for the desert or the middle of a busy Las Vegas Strip.

Jacuzzis and very comfortable lounge chairs make a day at the Mirage pools a soothing one. Unique underwater lighting, very large palm trees and classic fountains give this pool area the reputation as one of the best landscaped pools in Las Vegas.

Poolside massages, very nice bungalows, and a variety of different levels of services are available for guests to enjoy. This way everyone can make the most out of an afternoon at the pool. A poolside café is available for great food and drinks to cool off from the hot sun.

Also available through a separate exclusive entrance is Bare, the VIP beach club located poolside. This trendy setting, with a full bar and hip vibe, caters to guests who are looking for the nightclub party scene during the day. At Bare- guests will enjoy very comfortable day beds, VIP bottle service, and special pampering- all while enjoying European-style (topless) sunbathing. Separate admission may be required.
