Spring is here and the weather is getting warmer — on some days, at least. As Vegas hotels open their pools for the season, there’s no reason for locals to feel left out.
🏝️ Palms
The Palms Pool is open to non-hotel guests who are 21 and over. In a killer deal that’s almost too good to believe, anyone with a Nevada ID can book a free cabana Sunday-Friday (and seven days a week through April 30).
👙 Virgin Hotels
General admission is $20 (via walkup or online through ResortPass) for the main pool and free for the 21-and-over Kassi Beach Club at Virgin Hotels. The latter serves the entire menu from neighboring Kassi Beach House (one of Virgin’s best restaurants) without a poolside markup.
☀️ Sahara
The Pool at Sahara is open daily with free admission for locals 21 and over. And yes, the Sahara remains one of those rare resorts on the Strip with free parking.
🍹 Durango
Locals can hang by the Bel-Aire Backyard pool deck for as little as $30 admission, although there’s no cover when dining at the Backyard Grill. Those who work in hospitality get free admission on Industry Mondays.
🍇 The Resort at Summerlin
Formerly known as JW Marriott, the Resort at Summerlin has a newly renovated pool area to go along with its new name. Cabanas start as low as $200 (or $350 during peak season) with water bottles and a fruit plate included. Regular admission is $20 ($10 for kids under 10), although those prices increase by 10 bucks on May 1. Get a two-for-one admission deal Monday-Thursday.
🏊 The M Resort
Admission to M Pool for non-hotel guests is $15 (Monday–Thursday), $25 (Friday–Saturday), or $35 (holidays) with bottle service beginning at $150. Locals get half-price adult admission on Thursdays. A VIP Season Pass ($199 through April 30, $249 as of May 1) includes unlimited entry to both M Pool and the DayDream dayclub throughout the season.
🥂 Aria, MGM Grand & Venetian
Liquid Pool Lounge at the Aria gives locals free admission on Wednesdays, along with a champagne open bar for the ladies (12:30-1:30 p.m.), $200 bottle specials on tequila and vodka, and buy-one, get-one well cocktails.
- Dare to experience more dayclub fun? Locals get free admission and drink specials Wednesdays at Palm Tree Beach Club (MGM Grand) and Thursdays at Tao Beach (Venetian).
As always, deals can change at any moment 🤑
