Top 5 Vegas Hotel Pools for Locals

July 2023 – Go here for updated pool info post-Covid. I have calls and emails out to get info for the hotel pools that are open, changes in cost, etc. I’ll update as it comes in.

Pre-covid, locals could splash into the lush Vegas hotel pools around the valley, and sometimes it’s free! I’ll post the free days and specials on the Vegas Kids Zone Facebook page. Have your Nevada ID ready to show and be prepared with your own towels and loads of sunscreen. Most pools don’t allow outside food or drink, so be prepared before you go. 

Check with the hotel if you plan to bring a cooler or large bag with food and drinks to be on the safe side.
