🏖️💦 Remember when locals had to get creative just to sneak into a Strip pool?
Now, some of Las Vegas’ biggest resorts are doing the opposite — offering free or discounted pool access specifically for Southern Nevada residents.
From Caesars Palace and Flamingo to Fontainebleau, Aria, MGM Grand, The Cosmopolitan, Virgin Hotels, Palms, and more, locals can take advantage of free admission days, discounted day passes, cabana deals, drink specials, and other summer perks.
For many longtime Las Vegans, it’s a major shift from the days when hotel pools were reserved almost exclusively for resort guests.
Whether you’re looking for a family pool day, a relaxing cabana, or a dayclub experience without paying tourist prices, there are more local-friendly options available this summer than ever before.
