| - The Pool is free to locals. Not on one specific day, not at a specific time, but all day. I had originally put everyday, but Teri C. brought it to my attention that others have said that it only applies for weekdays. Since I went during the middle of the week, I cannot verify. Next time I go, I will be sure to ask and update.
Instead of doing the reclusive, swimming at a private pool, Jack W. and I ventured out to the M. Instead of paying a ridiculous cover charge for an over packed area, some friends have raved about how nice it was over here. With two long shallow pools, and a hot tub, it is obvious that this is not a place for actual outdoor recreation. It is nice if you are looking for a place to lounge out in the sun, grab a few drinks, and wade in the cool water.
The abundance of lounge chairs will guarantee you a space. Getting one that is in the shade and away from the hot Vegas sun is another story. Every time one cleared there is someone else rushing to take it. Be ready to move quick or push down some families.
The Pool is well staffed with cocktail waitresses. Even though we did not drink, the prices looked reasonable. A 12oz. mixed drink cost $9, 16oz. $12, and a monstrous 32oz. for $15. Food is also available and reasonably priced.
The only downside is that people tend to be careless. Leaving trash everywhere, it is common to step on a cup that has sank to the bottom, or a beer can floating on top.
