Every March to September, there is no shortage of must-visit Las Vegas pool parties on The Strip. Which, if you haven’t been to one before, imagine everything you know to be true about a Las Vegas nightclub, but during the day…and with everyone in considerably less clothing! It is generally the same younger crowd, international headlining DJs, big spenders, hot girls, eager men, the occasional celebrity, and no shortage of free-flowing alcohol – all under the hot desert sun.
Since not everyone is looking for the same type of pool party, we’ve broken it all down in as many ways as possible so that you can decide what best fits your taste. If you need any assistance, please contact our free direct pool hosts, post a question in our community discussion boards, e-mail [email protected], or sign up for FREE dayclub guest list.

- Tuesday: Not a great day for any pool party.
- Wednesday: Not a great day for any pool party.
- Thursday: Tao Beach and Liquid.
- Friday and Saturday: All pool parties are solid options on Fridays and Saturdays, so you should narrow them down using our guides based on what type of party best fits what you are looking for in terms of being the busiest, a megaclub, an intimate party, topless, or more relaxed.
Best Las Vegas pool parties by type:
- Megapools: Encore Beach Club, Daylight, Wet Republic, Marquee Dayclub and Ayu are all very large-scale, busy, and high-energy pool parties.
- Medium / Intimate Sized: Liquid, Tao Beach, and Bare Pool.
- Topless: Bare Pool, Moorea Beach.
- Party Pools: By their nature, and their name, most all Las Vegas pool parties are party pools.
- Relaxing: Your hotel pool. Pay attention to the schedules of all other pools as they are slower on certain days of the week;
- For Older: As always, you are only as old as you feel, and it isn’t uncommon to see people of all ages partying at all Las Vegas pools. For this reason, if you feel that you will be uncomfortable surrounded by a much younger crowd, then you may consider sticking to the hotel pools.
Hotel Pools:
As we’ve mentioned, all Las Vegas resorts have a pool of some sort, so just because it isn’t mentioned here, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t grab your towel and spend the afternoon soaking it up. Keep in mind that some hotel pools are reserved only for hotel guests, while others allow for day passes (or, possibly sneaking in). That said, the below hotel pools are the most popular amongst visitors and locals alike:
- Golden Nugget: Located in Downtown Las Vegas, the Golden Nugget has one of the coolest things of any Las Vegas pool: an acrylic shark tank that you can slide through! We’ve all had a great time or two at the Golden Nugget pool, and this is a great option for those looking for an alternative to the pool party. Go, hang out, and enjoy yourself. Just don’t be too judgmental on the crowd, as they aren’t exactly gracing the covers of any magazines in these parts.
- Flamingo’s GO Pool: Another great option for those looking for a stress-free option, Flamingo’s GO pool has plenty of bars, free deck chairs, and is typically pretty busy.
- MGM Grand: MGM Grand’s Hotel Pool is a tropical oasis that features something pretty awesome. Two words, Lazy River!

Frequently asked questions:
What is the difference between a hotel pool and a pool party?
All Las Vegas resorts have hotel pools, which are generally open to hotel guests of all ages, and don’t tend to have much in the way of music or coordinated entertainment. By contrast, Las Vegas pool parties are almost always managed by the same nightlife teams that run the Las Vegas nightclubs. This meaning you will see much more of a concentration of younger people, celebrities, headlining DJs, and an entertainment experience more in line with what you would find in the nightclub after the sun sets.
What’s the big difference? Think older hotel guests lounging poolside Vs. plenty of hot girls in bikinis.
Can I get in for free if i’m a hotel guest?
Sometimes. This depends on the pool and if any special events are going on. Refer to our individual guides for more information, and always make a point to speak with your hotel concierge as they can sometimes offer you unlisted accommodations.
What are the age and dress code requirements?
All Las Vegas pool parties require guests to be able to prove that they are at least 21 years of age. Dress codes can vary depending on the pool and the time of the season, but the general idea is that you want to dress like you are going to a pool. Doormen typically frown upon sports apparel (jerseys, gym shorts, etc), cargo shorts, and wife beaters. Wear a swimsuit!
Are there available guest lists for Las Vegas pool parties?
Yes! Guest lists are usually free for groups of girls, groups with equal amount of men to women and sometimes guys. Still, it never hurts to ask. Visit our free Las Vegas guest list page to sign up and view the guest list rules. Remember, if you are a group of guys, they are definitely going to say no.
How does bottle service work at a pool party?
Most all pool parties, and now many nightclubs, offer purchase minimums rather than the bottle minimums you are used to seeing in the clubs. This means that rather than saying “you can have this area for 3 bottles,” it is instead meaning “you can have this area for the day as long as you spend $1,500.00 in total.” Which gives you the flexibility to purchase food, pitchers, bottles, shots, mixed drinks, and beers.
