Mandalay Bay Beach was my favorite part of my weekend stay at Mandalay Bay. I sneaked in a quick pool session before checkout on the last day. It was early on Sunday morning and the place was empty. I was happy to see the size of the pool/beach/lazy river areas and the abundant lounge chairs all over.
I chose to set up by the lazy river. Other people looked like they were having fun in the river so I decided to purchase an inner tube for $22+tax. For the size, quality, and convenience (they inflate it for you within a few seconds), the price seemed fair for the tube.
Several of my friends came down to join me at the pool and they enjoyed a ride in my tube float as well.
