Summer is almost here; boy, are we glad, as with it comes the apogee of outdoor partying. Remember how your mom/dad/uncle/aunt always told you not to take a dip after chugging a pitcher of Mojitos? Well, if we listened to our relatives, we would all be wearing one-piece swimsuits, married to accountants, and we wouldn’t be in Las Vegas in the first place. Party at an exclusive pool is the best thing that can happen to you in Las Vegas (well, maybe except for winning in Blackjack). So pull on your sexy bikini—or only half of it— or trunks, and head towards one of the trendy, top-notch pool clubs geared towards nightlife and entertainment. But not before you read our guide to where the combination of popular pools and booze works in the best nightlife unison, as Las Vegas pool party season opens up with Clubplanet on guard.
#8 Best Pool in Las Vegas
Sapphire
3700 W. Flamingo Road
Las Vegas, NV 89103
Sapphire is the newest addition to Las Vegas’ wet side of entertainment, and it immediately spiced up the local market with its policy of better no tops than no tips. Seven fully stocked VIP cabanas with a personal host per each attract the business crowd and those who’d rather authentically relax than show off latest fashion finds at over-crowded Las Vegas nightclubs. The 128,000-gallon Sapphire pool is surrounded by blue and white day beds and padded chaise lounges. Relax in one of the two Jacuzzis in the midst of three cascading waterfalls. As if shapely male and female bodies lingering around you weren’t enough, the staff pampers you with a poolside massage option, food delivery and high-end bottle service. Specialty cocktails include build-your-own Mojitos in flavors like watermelon, guava and raspberry or Caipirinha. Of course, you will have to leave a heavy buck behind-- day bed rentals start at $200; cabanas start at $500 and include admission for up to 8 people. But there is always a price to pay for VIP pampering in Las Vegas.

Wet Republic The Ultra Pool

MGM Grand deserves the title of its grandness (they’re the nightlife mogul behind Studio 54), as Wet Republic The Ultra Pool is yet another venture that strives in daytime entertainment in Las Vegas. Two salty water pools offer a sleek haven to adult adventurers looking for some serious tanning, while the poolside lounge offers a cool hideout for those who’d rather sip one of the signature cocktails and hide from Las Vegas sun.

TAO Beach
3355 Las Vegas Blvd.
Las Vegas, NV 89109
Ever wondered where do they shoot the music videos with insanely sleek and cool pools, insanely hot women, and insanely lucky musicians prowling among them? Once you think the swanky, seductive and one of the best Las Vegas nightclubs, TAO, cannot get any better, you discover TAO Beach and its ultra-trendy, nouveau-Asian decorated poolside lounge. By day, Las Vegas socialites sip signature cocktails (like Tao-tinis and TAO-jitos) on the pool deck, in one of seven luxury cabanas that feature plasma TVs with X-box gaming consoles, a DVD library, internet and customized mini bars. Regular beach chairs are replaced with South-East-Asia style day beds scattered throughout the 18,000 sq. feet ‘oasis’, which includes a 30-feet bar. After dark, the nightclub slant takes rein and established DJ’s spin live to the joy of a chicly dressed Las Vegas crowd.

Bare Pool

Las Vegas, NV 89109
Bare Pool at the Mirage is the real deal when it comes to quality nightlife for real grown-ups, and, as such, it is open to private parties exclusively. There’s a good reason for that-- this sleek poolside lounge encourages the European style of tanning, in accordance to its promising name. Focusing on VIP service, Bare Pool pampers its handsome patrons with a full bar, two luxury dipping pools and private cabanas. Forget bottle service and welcome pitcher service, with pitchers containing ready-mixed cocktails like Mojitos, as well as sangria—all served by the almost-bare-bodied cocktail waitresses.

Flamingo Go Pool

Las Vegas, NV 89109
Another lair of adult-style sunbathing and sipping martinis while hiding from Las Vegas sun in the cool depth of the pool bloomed at the Flamingo Las Vegas hotel. Private cabanas provide a luxurious option while poolside chaise lounges let you catch a tan amidst a crowd clad only in bathing suits. And, of course, there’s the 15-acre pool letting the sexy 21-and-over patrons splash and cool the senses that can reach highest temperatures at Flamingo Go; mostly thanks to the special entertainment. Flamingo Go offers featured games, live DJ’s, and pool dancing from 4pm to 7pm.

Sip one of the colorful cocktails while experiencing a whole new kind of a corporate event or a private party.

Except for the prime crowd, The Palms Pool and Bungalow offers three acres of sun-drenched debauchery next to three azure pools, climate-controlled gaming area and four bars. The VIPs can linger in one of 27 poolside cabanas, and every almost-naked mortal has access to Jacuzzis.
