10 Best Pool Parties in Las Vegas

Las Vegas is famous for its wild parties held at its lavish hotels with over-the-top pools, which are generally hosted in the hot summer season as a way to help everyone keep cool while having an unforgettable time. Let’s just say it’s definitely not about the swimming, and you probably wouldn’t be able to do much of that with bodies often packed in the pool like sardines – although some do offer a quieter scene. These are private pools where Champagne showers pop up when you least expect it, famous DJs are spinning tunes until well after dark, and the food goes way beyond your typically poolside fare.

The longest-running dayclub in Las Vegas, every year, Wet Republic at the MGM Grand is one of the top spots for pool parties, complete with VIP bungalows that have their own misting systems, private whirlpools, flat-screen TVs, drink service and chaise lounges. There are amazing DJs along with plenty of Champagne showers. Crowds are packed in for one of the biggest and wildest parties on The Strip, lines are long and space is very tight, but it’s the ultimate nightclub, just during the day, and with lots of water.

Tao Beach has been around for years, and while the venue is a bit smaller than some others, it’s still legendary. Situated on the rooftop of the Venetian’s Tao complex, which includes a nightclub, lounge and restaurant, it offers lots, including a 30-foot bar, a dozen luxurious cabanas, daybeds and DJs. It became one of the most popular pool parties in the city thanks to the LMFAO video for Lil John’s “Shots Shots Shots.” Guests can enjoy the pool party, taking breaks in between in cabanas to enjoy some of the tasty food from Tao Bistro. It’s renowned for some of the best poolside sushi in Las Vegas and topless sunbathing Mondays through Wednesdays.

Guests enjoy splashing around with the inflatable flamingos and pizza slices, chugging from Champagne bongs and ordering crazy drinks from the “cocktail explosion,” perhaps the “Porn Star,” which features Champagne and Absolut Elyx topped with a Barbie doll or a Ken doll, it’s up to you. There’s even a kind of alcohol fondue – an insane cocktail fountain that serves around 150 drinks. There’s always more simple options too, but they’ve taken it up a notch, including the best Pina Coladas you’ll find in the area.
