Relaxation Pools vs Party Dayclubs

Vegas has two kinds of water day. The hotel pools below are for swimming, sunbathing and a calmer scene, and most are reserved for hotel guests. The dayclubs and pool parties are the high-energy, DJ-driven version with bottle service and cabanas, open to everyone with a guest-list spot or a table. This page covers the pools; we book the parties and can sort your hotel room too.

The Best Hotel Pools in Las Vegas

Garden of the Gods

Caesars Palace Relaxation + lively

Seven Roman-inspired pools across a sprawling deck, with waterfalls, a swim-up blackjack table, and daybeds and cabanas for rent. The largest and most iconic pool complex on the Strip, and it covers everything from quiet sunbathing to a livelier scene depending on which pool you pick.

The Boulevard Pool

The Cosmopolitan Relaxation, Strip views

A rooftop-perch pool with unobstructed Strip views in every direction, cabanas with shaded seating and a stylish, design-forward crowd. One of the best places to lounge with a skyline backdrop, and it converts to events and dive-in movies on select nights.

Mandalay Bay Beach

Mandalay Bay Family + party mix

An 11-acre aquatic playground with a real sand beach, a wave pool and a lazy river, plus the Tailgate Beach Club party scene on the same deck. The most resort-like water experience in the city, good for a relaxed day or a livelier one.

Wynn & Encore Pools

Wynn / Encore Refined, upscale

The gold standard for Vegas pool refinement: manicured European-style decks, cabanas and a polished, grown-up atmosphere. Wynn's pool club and the Encore side cover both serene lounging and a more social daytime scene.

Venetian Pool Deck

The Venetian Relaxation

A Tuscan-inspired complex of multiple pools surrounded by greenery and courtyards, with some of the better poolside food and drink in town. Spacious and calm, a strong pick when you want room to breathe.

Bellagio Courtyard Pools

Bellagio Relaxation, elegant

A Mediterranean-style courtyard of fountains and several connected pools, manicured and quiet. The choice for an elegant, lower-key day rather than a party.

Vdara Pool

Vdara Hotel & Spa Quiet, adults-friendly

A calm, all-suite, no-casino retreat with a low-key pool deck that skews relaxed and grown-up. The move when you want to escape the crowds but stay walkable to the action.

Stadium Swim

Circa Year-round party

An adults-only, year-round pool amphitheater downtown with multiple heated pools facing a giant screen. The exception to pool season: it runs all year and leans party. We book it directly.

Want the Party Version?

If your group wants a DJ, bottle service and a cabana rather than a quiet lounge, the dayclubs are the move. We book guest list, daybeds and cabanas at Encore Beach Club, LIV Beach, Marquee Dayclub, Ayu and more. Staying a while? We also hold exclusive hotel rates at the resorts that house these pools.

Las Vegas Hotel Pools: FAQ

What is the best hotel pool in Las Vegas? +

It depends what you want. For the biggest, most iconic complex, Garden of the Gods at Caesars Palace is hard to beat. For Strip views, the Boulevard Pool at The Cosmopolitan. For a beach and wave pool, Mandalay Bay. For refined, upscale lounging, Wynn and Encore. And for a year-round party pool, Stadium Swim at Circa downtown. Tell us your vibe and we will point you to the right one.

What is the difference between a hotel pool and a dayclub? +

A hotel pool is for relaxing, swimming and lounging, often free for hotel guests and open to a calmer crowd. A dayclub (or pool party) is a high-energy, ticketed party with a DJ, bottle service and cabanas, like Encore Beach Club or Ayu. Many resorts have both. If you want the party, see our pool parties guide; if you want to relax, the pools above are the move.

Can you book a cabana or daybed at a Vegas pool? +

Yes, for the dayclubs and party pools we book guest list, daybeds and cabanas directly. For the relaxation pools, cabana and daybed rentals are handled through the hotel, and we can help you sort the right hotel and room as part of your trip. Tell us the dates and group and we will set it up.

Are Las Vegas hotel pools open year-round? +

Most outdoor hotel pools run seasonally, roughly March through October, and some close or reduce hours in winter. The main year-round exception is Stadium Swim at Circa, which keeps heated pools open all year, and a few resorts heat a pool in the off-season. We confirm what is open for your exact dates.

Do I have to stay at the hotel to use the pool? +

Generally yes, the relaxation pools are for registered hotel guests. Dayclubs and pool parties are open to everyone with a ticket, guest list or table. If you want pool access without booking that hotel, a dayclub is the way in, and we can also get you an exclusive room rate at the right resort.
