Mandalay Bay

The Strip, Las Vegas

Virgin 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!

The room was a very nice size and the bathroom was very big as well. I loved the double sinks. The bed was extremely comfortable. The staff were very professional and friendly. It was an easy walk to the Allegiant Stadium. I liked that we didn't even need to drive and fight the parking.

Came here to use the pool(as we were guests of a sister property) I hated every minute there Loud reggae music nonstop No shade unless you want to pay a premium for a cabana Really bad It’s a very young scene with little to offer someone over 40 The towels smelt like a farm

Mandalay Bay is a very nice resort with all the amenities you need in Las Vegas. The rooms are nice and clean. The public areas are well maintained. There are many restaurants of several varieties. the tram that takes you to Excaliber is nice to get you farther north on the strip if you want to visit other resorts.

Dec 11, 2024 markd673

Lots of minor problems with the room and hotel-- like access to hot water after 8am, malfunctioning card readers, lack of integrated rewards programs and automated check-in not working. None of these are big deals in and of themselves, but add up to a "meh" expereience
