| - This is the first day club I've ever been to and I have to say, I had a blast here! If you're taking a cab in, tell the cab driver you're going to the day club at Mandalay Bay. Key phrase: "day club at Mandalay Bay." If you tell them you're going to Mandalay Bay expecting a short walk from the casino to the pool, then you're in for a rude awakening. The lines to get in were a bit confusing. We bought our tickets in advance to come see Alesso perform, and there was no clear sign indicating which lines were for pre-purchased folks, and which line was for people paying at the door. Asked two different staff/security guards and got two different answers.
Once we got in, I noticed that the pool area wasn't as big as the pictures portrayed. But it still looked nice because it was hot as balls that day in Vegas. All the chairs and stuff were obviously occupied, so we found a nice shady spot by the bar area. Ahh speaking of the bar. This is the type of place that'll make a person with a drinking problem go sober. Seriously, $40 for a drink though?! That's more than cover charge itself!! And for $40 you would think you'd get more alcohol. Nope! Oh, and water is expensive too. Granted, it's like Voss or something like that, but still. Thankfully, they got a water station by the exit where you can fill water up with your expensive cup.
Overall, conduct yourself like you would at any other night clubs. Don't be puking cuz they will find you and they will kick you out. The pool itself is nice, but I did notice during my sober moments that the water was kinda..murky, but then again, there was so much people there, I guess that's to be expected.
Otherwise, a great time. I hope to be back to this or any other day clubs out here in Vegas. I'm just a bit bummed I been to Vegas so many times and I've never been to a day club prior to this!
