| - Wow... Loved it!
We stayed here just 1 night for a quick weekend getaway and had a great experience. The Tower King Suite on the 56th floor was very spacious large suite with lots of mirrors so it felt even bigger.

We loved the super comfy bed and tons of pillows. The couch/chaise in the suite was comfy and the automated curtains were gorgeous. The bathroom was very nice with great linens (super soft!), nice robes to use, adjustable pressure on the shower, dual sinks, a lighted makeup mirror and everything you would expect from a luxury hotel. I didn't get to try the tub, but hopefully next time. We had a pool view to the Wynn and it was really nice. While checking in, the desk clerk warned us about the bass sound from the clubs at night and offered to put us on the other side of the tower if we wanted. I didn't think the bass was too bad since my husband & I are both heavy sleepers, but if you are a light sleeper you might want to request the opposite side of the tower. No indulging in the mini bar-- there are lots of notes saying that anything you pick up for more than 60 seconds will be charged to the room. We took advantage of late checkout at 1pm.
The rooms also had a Do Not Disturb button you could turn on so that the maid service won't disturb your room. Love the free Wifi-- why don't all hotels have this? In staying on the 56th floor, the elevators were great except the fact that my ears popped every time we went up or down? WTF? I would then spend a few minutes opening my mouth & dropping my jaw to make the popping stop and then looked like a moron I'm sure. Oh well!
The decor of the hotel was classy overall. Lots of red with flowers and butterflies in jewel tones. The red and purple is really nice together and there was some great art throughout the whole property.
Blackjack table was fun and the cocktail waitresses had nice uniforms, especially compared to some of the other hotels. It was really funny to see a 5+ month pregnant belly of one of the cocktail waitresses and she was still in the same little dress as the other ones!
POOL:
Pretty mellow at the main pool on the Sunday we were there. It was probably because Lil John was at the Encore Beach Club that day. After determining it would cost $97 just for my husband and I to get in, we determined that we didn't want to spend that much. We wandered over to the European Pool and it's "21 and over -- No Cameras" sign. I didn't realize that meant topless... Ha! It wasn't *that* private, so only a few ladies were actually topless. The "toptional" pool at the Mandalay Bay has more security out making sure that no one is taking pictures of the topless ladies. The cocktail waitress we had was a bit slow, so we only ended up having one cocktail each. My favorite poolside drink is a Lava Flow-- strawberry daiquiri mixed with a piƱa colada. YUMMY! It was a good time, but I wouldn't head to Encore just for their pool.
The hotel is immaculate and such a great luxurious experience. Hopefully my husband will treat me to it again!
