The Pool at Formerly The Mirage Hotel & Casino

"The public areas downstairs remain impressive, the pool complex is nicely laid out, and you get to watch the volcano from your bedroom window"

"The adult-oriented Bare Pool Lounge allows for European-style sunbathing (read: topless) and is a nice oasis in its own right"

"The Spa offers challenging (but almost offensively expensive) pool- and dolphin-side yoga classes on weekends"

"Conveniently located in the center of the Strip, the Mirage is famous for its tropical atrium, pretty pool with cascading waterfall, and Siegfried & Roy’s white tigers"

"And do make time to stop by the gorgeous pool area, which comprises a series of blue lagoons, inlets and waterfalls, plus two islands exotically landscaped with various palm trees and tropical flowers"

"The sprawling pool complex is big enough to resist crowds, with multiple pools and cabanas, as well as a water slide for the kid in you and the Bare VIP pool lounge for the adult"

"“World-class entertainment” (think big-name comedians and a Beatles-themed Cirque du Soleil show) that’s “in the middle of all the action” makes this “elegant” Strip property “worth every penny”, as do the “wonderful” pool area, “fun” casino, numerous restaurants, “beautiful” atrium with foliage and waterfalls, a dolphin habitat, a 20,000-gallon lobby aquarium and the iconic erupting faux volcano; the “super” rooms boast “amazing” views, while “helpful and knowledgeable” staffers deliver “excellent” service"

"An elder statesman among the Strip's megaresorts, the 3,044-room Mirage relies less on thematics and a booze-fueled party scene for its appeal -- opting instead to emphasize comfortable, well-designed rooms, an enormous pool, diverse dining options, and attentive service"

"Spacious rooms are sophisticated, romantic hideaways, and the vast pool complex might make you swoon"

"The building's shape allows for views of the mountains, Strip or pool through picture windows"
