It’s well into pool season in Las Vegas, and you need to know where to go. Las Vegas is wild year-round, but it’s epic pool parties — that generally rage from early March through Labor Day — are just the most raucous time in the most raucous city in the world. Booze, bikinis and EDM — the trifecta of debauchery during pool party season. How do you know which pool party is for you? If you’re a day club rookie or a local needing a scenery change, here is a list of the top five pool parties in the city of sin.
Encore Beach Club at Wynn Encore
The indulgent nature of Wynn Resorts carries over to Encore Beach Club, where The Chainsmokers, David Guetta and Diplo performed. The stage, surrounded by dozens of palm trees, includes 26 cabanas with views of the Strip. On the off chance you’re bored — which you won’t be — there’s gaming tables to keep you occupied.
Wet Republic at MGM Grand
Some may say the best part about the seven-acre pool complex is the lazy river, but they are lying. It’s the fact it’s Wet Republic, and big names like Steve Aoki and Tiesto dodge Champagne showers and play afternoon sets under a massive video wall. Order a vodka soda from a 95-foot, marble-topped bar then dip in one of the two large saltwater pools. If you have extra cash lying around, splurge on one of the 10 cabanas or 12 VIP bungalows with panoramic views of the party, bottle service, private pools and comfortable furniture.
Marquee Dayclub at The Cosmopolitan
Marquee Nightclub has its own swimming pool, making good use of it during daylight hours all year-round, including winter when the dome is up overhead. The eight cabanas include various perks like infinity pools and a gaming area, but for the VIP experience, book one of the 10 three-story bungalow lofts with private living quarters and an open-air party deck with a private Jacuzzi and TV.
Rehab at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino
Rehab continues to upgrade and renovate itself, making it feel less like an ultra-contemporary pool deck and more like a tropical oasis with sandy beaches, towering palm trees and swim-up Blackjack tables. The fun continues with bottle service delivered by a pirate ship, shotskis, Champagne showers and Jell-O shot injectors. The DJ booth was recently revamped with large LED screens, smoke machines and water cannons.
Drai’s BeachClub at The Cromwll
Drai’s, located on the top of The Cromwell, has the best, without question, sight lines covering almost all of the Strip. Be sure to try the poolside dining — tuna poke nachos, roasted salmon sandwich or flatbreads. There are two large pools on the main deck, plus five smaller elevated pools shared by the VIP bungalows. For the VIP experience, move up to one of the 15 mezzanine-level cabanas for private pools, showers and restrooms.
