If you are not staying at the hotel you can still rent a cabana or daybed.
Why is that important? Well, as a native it's nice to contribute to business but it's also a wicked awesome pool.
I rented a cabana just after memorial weekend and had a blast! Marcy (hope I spelled her name right) was our cocktail waitress and she took good care of us. All of the staff was friendly.
The only issue was with the slide. I'm a huge fan, but it seemed that there was trouble with it. Please fix it ASAP Golden Nugget. That was the whole reason I came to your pool and I'm sure it's a huge draw for other guests.
