Mandalay Bay

The Strip, Las Vegas

Star rating

The hotel

Everywhere you turn there are awesome spectacles to behold in this exotic wonderland, including the amazing 1.6 million-gallon aquarium known as Shark Reef, world-class nightlife, and top class cuisine makes an appearance in Kumi Japanese Restaurant. More highlights include the whopping five swimming pools, lazy river ride, and a wave pool with a sandy beach, all of which give you a welcome relief in that midday Vegas sun. The fully air-conditioned Casino on the Beach is accessible in your swimwear too, even the dealers wear casual beach outfits! All in all, Mandalay Bay is not so much a hotel as a big, beautiful resort city with everything you need right on property!

Very nice resort. The staff was very courteous and helpful The pools are incredible and the shows are amazing! Their are plenty of food options. Only downside was the location and lighting in the casino and rooms. I highly recommend this resort if you want a pleasant and relaxing experience!

Very nice hotel. As is in Las Vegas, pricing is really high on everything. No need for a bottle of water to cost $25. Pay-outs didn’t seem to be happening on any machines. We normally hear the machines ringing for others, but none of that this entire stay.

Awesome pool, wave pool, and beach. The rooms are clean and larger than most. Many high-end and middle of the road restaurants to choose from. Nice location on the Strip. Just a short walk to Allegiant Stadium too! Be sure to bring your sunscreen!
