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!

My stay at Mandalay Bay was extremely disappointing and, unfortunately, one of the worst hotel experiences I've had. The check-in process was incredibly slow, disorganized, and frustrating. After a long day of travel, the last thing guests should have to deal with is an inefficient and stressful check-in experience. The most serious issue, however, was finding mold in the bathroom of my room. Seeing visible mold in a hotel bathroom is completely unacceptable, especially at a property that markets itself as a premium resort. It's not just unpleasant—it raises serious concerns about cleanliness, maintenance, and guest health. Overall, the room did not meet the standards I expected from Mandalay Bay. Between the terrible check-in experience and the unacceptable condition of the bathroom, I left feeling disappointed and concerned. I cannot recommend staying here unless the hotel significantly improves its cleanliness standards and overall guest experience. Read less

Great service every time we’ve gone, rooms are always specular, atmosphere is fun and great for gambling
Image of the Tripadvisor rating Not worth the price, need to do better. You're better staying off strip than staying here. Amenities in room were not working. P

Not worth the money. Hidden fees everywhere. Parking is horrible... Key card to get out did not work. Room amenities did not work. Slow wifi. Horrible experience all round. Stay elsewhere.
