#5.  Wynn Las Vegas

The pools at The Wynn Las Vegas are known for its architecture, landscaping and level of service.  The private cabanas at the Wynn are actually permanent fixtures, instead of the more typical movable tents, and even have air conditioning and ceiling fans to cool off you and your guests while outside in the middle of a hot Las Vegas afternoon.  The cabanas also include HDTVs and a personal server to keep drinks in your hand.

#4.  Hard Rock Hotel & Casino

The original party pool is still one of the best.  The Hard Rock has 37 private cabanas, swim-up blackjack and craps tables and an underwater sound system, so you can still rock out while you swim. The Palapa Hut features four more blackjack tables on dry land as well.  During the week, the pool at the Hard Rock is a relatively easy going swimming hole, but it gets wild on the weekend when the infamous Rehab Beach Club takes over.

#3.  Flamingo

After all these years the Flamingo still has kept up it’s reputation as having one of the most famously great pools in Vegas hidden inside.  Here you’ll find five swimming pools on 15 acres, connected by waterslides, lagoons, and an 18-foot waterfall.   All of this is surrounded by a lush tropical paradise with Koi ponds and real flamingos hanging out with you.

#2.  Caesars Palace

The pool at Caesars was first made famous for it’s decadent and opulent atmosphere.  Today it’s still one of the biggest and best pools in Las Vegas with a lot going on.  The Fortuna Pool offers swim-up blackjack tables, the Sun Lounge has a martini and Scotch-tasting menu, and the Venus Pool allows guests to do a little “European style” (topless) sunbathing.   There’s a mobile margarita and mojito cart that makes its way around the pool so you’ll never be far from a tropical adult beverage.  Admission to the Venus Pool costs extra (and men even more extra), while the five other pools are available at no charge to guests.

#1.  Mandalay Bay

The pool at Mandalay Bay is not just a pool, but it’s an entire beach, with sand, surf, and sun. In this 11-acre complex, you’ll find a lazy river, three swimming pools and of course, the famous Mandalay Bay wave pool.  Overlooking the action is the Beachside Casino, where you can gamble with a poolside view.  For adults only, the secluded Moorea Beach Club lets sunbathers lose those pesky tan lines in topless bathing area.
