Pro's ❌ Con's Luxor POOL - Las Vegas Update

[@oldirtydawson]

I like the pool area at Luxor. It's simple, but that's what I like about it. It's easy to get a chair. Never had an issue at Luxor. My pros: -All MGM pools are progressive (Luxor the most progressive) with a relaxed dress code. -It's a laid back, no frills atmosphere. More older couples and solo people just looking for some sun, reading a book, etc. -A lot less kids than say, Mandalay Bay or MGM Grand. -For $15 (more on Sundays), you can access the pool if you're not staying at the hotel. -You can always find a chair. My cons: -The whole pool complex is rarely open. It's fine, cause it's big enough, but it would be cool to have access to all of it. -Reserved seating can be expensive for what you get. There is no option to rent a solo premium lounge chair (you have to get them in pairs). You can get nicer for cheaper or around the same price at another resort, and again, you don't need to book reserved seating at Luxor to get access-just admission.

I'm Just curious but what do mean the "pools are progressive"? Do you mean as in swim attire or something else?

Sunday sounds like a blast!

[@NinthIslandConnection]

It was a lot of fun!

[@vegaslady3732]

Very helpful and informative. I've never been, & after seeing this I doubt I ever will. It's bad enough seeing people at the pool for hours - slugging down drink after drink, and never leaving for a BR break...now add hair, slime, and assorted debris and well, no thanks. Too bad, as it looks like a nice collection of pools. Thanks for the vlog & heads up!

Thanks for watching, glad it was helpful!

Excellent video. Thanks!

Super helpful! Thank you for this, appreciate it

Absolutely, glad it is helpful!

[@sherrischrecengost470]

Love the platforms built in to the pool! Also, the QR codes on the chairs is brilliant!

[@NinthIslandConnection]

We agree!

[@macvince2012]

Thanks! Good to know about the West Tower.

[@NinthIslandConnection]

Our pleasure!

[@johngomillion4872]

Thanks for the review, will be there next week again. I usually don't use the pool, but will because of the extreme heat..

[@rainn5571]

Well done. 👍

[@NinthIslandConnection]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@panjo]

[@NinthIslandConnection]

Yes it was!

[@kevinj2k8585]

I’m gonna be there Tuesday and Wednesday next week!

Can you smoke at the pool?

[@user-un1cj9pi6p]

Will be there in June, 2024, do they have a DJ every day?

[@dantespears713]

I once made the error of staying in the front of the pyramid that faces the sphinx and the airport and made the walk to the pool

[@andrewajreedar]

It's a thing in the middle of water slide

[@andrearin8383]

Do you know if there is a swim attire dress code?

[@NinthIslandConnection]

Great question! We saw women in bikinis and men in speedos to regular board shorts. Hope this helps!

[@andrearin8383]

@@NinthIslandConnection it does and thank you, I enjoyed the video.

[@MyPolicyPro]

Can you bring your own water bottles?

[@NinthIslandConnection]

Not supposed any outside food or drinks, but I have seen people with their tumblers. They do provide free ice water though so you wouldn't need to bring your own. Hope this helps!

[@mathiasvermeulen5490]

question: do the have small lockers to put your wallet/phone in? as a single traveller I prefer this instead of leaving my stuff unguarded at the side of the pool.

[@NinthIslandConnection]

Thats a great question, I have been to Luxor many times and don't recall ever seeing any lockers. Come to think of it, I haven't seen them at any of the pools. Some of the pools will have a safe in the cabanas, but of course you have to rent a cabana to use them. Hope this helps!

[@mathiasvermeulen5490]

@@NinthIslandConnection I know the Venetian has lockers (a bit hidden though), I heard mgmgrand had lockers too

[@SteveBarrientosTest]

How much is the beer bucket?

[@NinthIslandConnection]

Great question! We got buckets of Seltzers that were $55.00 each, but you get 6 drinks - Beer or Seltzer. Side note; MGM Properties give 6 drinks in a bucket and Caesars Properties ONLY give 5 for the SAME price!

[@SteveBarrientosTest]

@@NinthIslandConnection Thanks! I just finished your video about The Linq, which one would you choose (Luxor or The Linq)? Context: simple man, don't care too much about luxury, rather good time (i.e., at the pool, a few drinks, nice food and shows)

Are the pools heated?

Oh noooooo, they are ICE cold! 😂

@@NinthIslandConnection are they really? Some say they are heated and website says heated seasonally. Wondering if I should pack my goggles😂

Note to self: skip Sunday!

[@NinthIslandConnection]

LOL, It definitely is a party atmosphere, but everyone is having so much fun. If you're looking to chill, yes skip Sunday.

[@MLY73]

Lost me at Sunday… shits old!!

[@NinthIslandConnection]

It's not for everyone, but everybody there seems to be having a great time!

[@Master-dk3pu]

Sundays is gay pool day at Luxor. Love it!! 😊

[@NinthIslandConnection]

The only LGBTQ party on the strip! We didn't go in, but it seemed like everyone was having a great time! Thanks for watching and commenting, we appreciate you!

[@sgarcia2710]

Any idea if there is a separate pool that does not have the pride stuff going on on Sunday to the Luxor. Or do I have no choice if I want to use the pool?

[@LexusAllTerrain1]

@@sgarcia2710 side pool is gay pool, you have many pools to play...

[@Jdoggy2448]

Thank you, great video! Glad to learn about the gay day crap! Definately won't schedule a pool day on Sundays with the family.
