Water, Water Everywhere and Even More to Drink: The Wet Republic Las Vegas

Water, Water Everywhere and Even More to Drink: The Wet Republic Las Vegas

Imagine a sweaty, summer fiesta at the hottest club-everybody dancing, bottles popping, music bumping, lights on…? (Insert party-stopping, deejay record scratch here.)  No, the party isn’t over-in fact, it is just starting. The MGM Grand Hotel offers Las Vegas the latest and greatest social concept: the daylight party. At The Wet Republic, happy hour is 11 a.m. to dusk.

True to its name, this 53,000-square-foot Mecca of all-things-wet features eight separate pools and spas, (two, of which, are saltwater pools - the only of its kind on the Strip) and six waterfalls. In addition, a covered cocktail lounge accommodates the sun and water shy, while a 4,100-square-foot sundeck serves as a stage for musical guests and celebrity entertainment – a reoccurring standard at The Wet Republic.

Here, where all patrons are freely engaged in sun-drenched and water-splashed activity; designer swimwear is customary and sunglasses are the key accessory - and the bigger, the better. This way, you can work that hard, gym body without having to bare the revenge that last night’s 6th tequila shot has taken on your tired eyes. Behind those polarized goggles, everyone else will look, like, way hotter, too.

Sunglasses aside, the best way to take pleasure in The Wet Republic is with one of the venue’s featured six VIP bungalows or ten party cabanas. Sure, you will have to sell your very soul to pay for it, but we are not playing when we say it is W-O-R-T-H I-T: worth it. Invite 20 of your closest friends and split the cost. This way, you will have first-rate cocktail service at your beckon call and a shaded place to rest your boozy, little heads. Besides, there is nothing that will ruin an afternoon like a half-naked, entirely-intoxicated, 2 PM brawl with the feline incarnate who stole your poolside spot - unless, of course, you are the chair-swiping bitch - then, you are set.

Cat fight or not, cool your sun burnt jets with one of The Wet Republic’s inventive, specialty liquor treats. We suggest a pitcher of Mojito, the Veuve Clicquot Snow Cone and the Red Bull Vodka Popsicle. If the pool scene is adventure enough, there are always the token fruity, beach daiquiris and bottle service to fall back on. The moral of the story is hydration. The temperature will sneak up on you and so will the booze. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
