Sunshine, cocktails and long days in the sun. That's right, Las Vegas is calling you to spend some time in the pools that are legendary and if you have never experienced the action you will have plenty of fun. You have plenty of choices from the sandy beach at the Mandalay Bay to the slides for the family at the Flamingo Hotel. You can enjoy beach volleyball at the Monte Carlo or get a taste of luxury at the pool at the Bellagio hotel. There is a pool for everyone in Las Vegas.

Summertime is here! Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial start of the summer season and that means you'll be spending plenty of time at the Las Vegas pools with a cocktail in one hand and your eye on the good looking people in the shallow end. I wouldn't suggest splurging for a cabana but I would stretch the budget for one of those day beds by the pool. They are closer to the water and you can take a nap out by the pool.
Maybe you were not planning on spending Memorial Day weekend in Las Vegas but if summer in Las Vegas sound like a god time for you to getaway why not start early. Find a decent Las Vegas hotel that also has a good pool and jam your friends into a room. If you are beyond the mayhem that is the group trip and you want to relax I would hit the non -gaming hotels for a little relaxation within reach of the Las Vegas action.
Memorial Day weekend nightlife in Las Vegas should be a combination of lounges and clubs. A few drinks to start the evening after dinner and then some dancing into the early morning hours followed by a late meal that can double as breakfast. You'll have just enough energy to head to the pool for an early morning nap by the water.

What is the best hotel in Las Vegas? That is a question with no real right answer, but what is the best hotel in Las Vegas for you? That's easier.
This Week's Best Hotel in Las Vegas Pick: Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino
I really enjoy the Mandalay Bay Hotel because it always seems like they just cleaned the place. I know that sounds weird but it always has a real clean, open and airy feel about it. The food is great, the rooms are spacious, the pool is one of the best and the atmosphere is all fun. It also has some of the best food of all Las Vegas hotels. Have a drink at Red Square or catch a show at the House of Blues.
Things to check out at Mandalay Bay Hotel:
- The pool is one of the best on the strip
- THE Hotel at Mandalay Bay
- Shark Reef Aquarium
- The Blueberry Mojito at StripSteak
- Eyecandy Sound bar and Lounge for a drink
- Red Square

Summer vacation planning just got easier! I have dedicated myself to finding the best way for you to have a great time on the Las Vegas strip this summer. I am full of tips and suggestions and I have had way more cocktails than is safe. I have spent endless hours with food in my hand and the sun on my skin all to give you everything you need for your summer vacation. Use the ideas, share them with friends or send me your own suggestions. For the next few weeks I'll be giving you tips on how best to plan your Las Vegas summer vacation.
Summer in Downtown Las Vegas
In the heart of summer you'll be thinking about how much you need a vacation and then you'll take a look at your bank account and find it hard to imagine doing anything at all. I hear you. That is why you will consider Downtown Las Vegas for your summer vacation. The D Hotel is looking very nice as is the Golden Nugget. Food cost less in Downtown and the action is just as good if not better than the strip. Yes, I said it. If you want a different Las Vegas experience filled with cool bars and a little old school Vegas action you'll head to Fremont Street and spend less this summer.
