I really really reallllllyyy wanted to like this place. My boyfriend and I were there yesterday to see Calvin Harris. We bought our tickets in advanced ( which was amazing) cause then we didn't have to stand in the guest list line which went of for days. It's insanely hot, like Vegas usually is, and there is no shade standing in line until you get to security check, which I think sucks because it's so hot that it's a health hazard to not keep your guests cool. They are really strict at security. I have this medication and I wasn't able to bring it in so I had to ch check it for $20. We showed up at around 1:30 and the place was mega packed. Nowhere to sit so people just lay down towels around the pool and try to find a spot. The line for the drink station took a while because they don't have a menus where everyone can see so you get to the bar as then you start deciding what you want. One the plus side they do serve food, the down side is that it's overpriced and not even good. I am a cook for a living and I spend money on food like its no one business but this was not worth it. My boyfriend and I orders the chicken tenders, better than what I thought but not that good. Again, this is Vegas and I was prepared to spend money. The pool was so insanely crowed that the water was murky and the pool felt like something slightly colder than bath water so cooling off in the water so semi hard. I saw stuff floating in the water as well that I really didn't want to know what it. There are easily 150-200 people in place and only 2 restrooms, both unisex. Not good. No shade for standing in line for the bathrooms. I saw these shower things next to the line for the bathroom so I thought it would be smart to cool off while in line. Hot ass water comes out. I finally make it to the bathroom and it was clean so that was a plus. Basically if you have a cabana then its worth it because you have a proper place to sit, shade and all of that. I went to XS night swim the next day to see diplo and that event was freaking amazing and would highly recommend it. So if you looking for a pool party fuck wet republic and yes to xs
