This was my first time ice skating which is unbelievable since I am from Wisconsin originally. I am grateful and proud that I did not fall on my butt or at all for that matter.
Located on the 4th floor of the Cosmopolitan Hotel Casino on the Las Vegas strip. Provides magnificent views of the Blvd. Normally this area is home to wild pool parties and debauchery and mischief but during the off season they have an ice rink covering the main pool. What fun! At times they even have a manufactured snow store to make it feel like a magical winter wonderland even though the outside Temps are much warmer. When I went it was in the 60's and some were even skating in shorts. The new equipment made it easy for all skill levels to enjoy an evening on the ice with beautiful views of LVB.
The staff was very friendly and we're even providing guidance and coaching to those in need. When adults and children fell to the ice they were there to assist and make sure guests were ok to continue. Also available were plenty of fire pits to keep you warm an toasty and even s'more's kits to roast marshmallows in between laps on the ice. Food and alcohol were available for purchase to provide nourishment and energy. Cocktails to warm you up and numb the pain if you crashed on the ice.
What a great way to spend an evening outdoors with the family during the holiday season. Without the bitter cold of the upper midwest.
Enjoy! I sure did.
