It's also the home of an annual summer concert series held on its outdoor stage in the wave pool. Cons: This popular summer destination means you'll need a reservation to ensure a chair is available. Before social distancing, this pool was known to get overcrowded with people waiting around for chairs. The hotel also draws a raucous crowd. An 11-acre aquatic destination in its own right, Mandalay Bay Beach in Las Vegas is a zero-entry pool with more than 2,700 tons of sand to mimic the feeling of a beach alongside a 1.6 million gallon wave pool. The four-pool complex also included a lagoon pool and lazy river, flanked by cabanas, day beds, and villa-style pool seating, Mandalay Bay is also home to Moorea Beach Club, a top-optional, adults-only pool experience with its own heated pool.
