This has to be my favorite pool in Vegas. It's not the party pool for one. It is reserved mainly…read morefor those that stay in the Sky Suites or 21+ that reserve online. I got a daybed for the day where I could spend all day at the pool from 10-6p. The pool was chilly that day however is was very clean. My pool attendee was very attentive the entire day. Love the food and cocktails. Can't wait to return back.

Nice good size pool area for the general public. There are two other private smaller pool areas…read morefor special suite guests. There are also three jacuzzis with one being bigger than the other two. The pool bar is also open and spacious with the restrooms on the left of the bar. There are plenty of free lawn chairs and a good amount of reserved seating as well. Cute servers walking around quite frequently for food and drink orders. Numerous life guards hanging out in their chairs ready for some action if neccessary. I enjoyed this quaint pool area very much because its not too huge and the BGM is not excessively loud. I will definitely be back for the jacuzzi and some more sunbathing.

Dates of visit: September 7 + 8, 2025…read more We stopped over here on a previous trip to Vegas and noticed how quiet it was. This time when we came back, we definitely took advantage of that, playing for several hours between the two days, making our $41 really last (far more than it ever would on a slot machine!). I think we encountered maybe three people total across the two days so there was never an issue with having to wait to play a game and overall the "swipe" cost per play was very affordable. At the end we pooled our tickets for a bunch of candy that I definitely didn't need but naturally enjoyed immensely and the young lady that helped us with our tickets was very friendly. Definitely worth a couple hours of time if you're in the area!

We originally had a reservation for a lounge daybed (with a canopy) at the Paris pool on a Tuesday…read more However, the Sunday before our reservation I received a call from the Paris pool manager explaining that the Paris pool was going to be closed for maintenance but I could make a reservation at the Blu Pool at Horseshoe. While I was sad I was not going to be basking in the sun under the Eiffel Tower, the Blu Pool turned out to be a great pool. Same chill vibe as Paris & not a party scene like other pools in Vegas. The other guests we talked to while at the pool very friendly & nice. The staff was great & very helpful. Our waitress was attentive & overall amazing. I made a reservation for a lounge daybed, which I thought was the same bed that I had reserved for Paris. However, when we arrived at 11:00am the daybed I reserved did not have a canopy & all the canopy beds were already spoken for + all the shaded spots for non-canopy beds were already taken. I also found out the Planet Hollywood pool was also closed & allowing their guests to come to Blu as well. We had a great time at Blu but we were only able to enjoy it for a few hours due to being in the direct sunlight & heat. I wanted to spend all day at the pool so it sucks that I was only able to experience it for a few hours. My suggestion for those who need shade, get there when the pool opens at 9:00am to choose your spot. Once you choose your spot you are able to leave & come back as you please.

Newly remodeled pool. It's a nice relaxing atmosphere for families and kids. There is music, but…read moreit's not that loud. There aren't too many lounge chairs, so go early to get one. I like how this place is so chill compared to other loud crazy pools in Vegas. So chill you can fall asleep pretty easily. Good size pool. Clean restrooms. Not too many people. There's shade, but it gradually disappears as the day goes on. Food and drinks are for purchase here as well.

First Harrahs lies and says the pool is Olympic sized. But it isn't. It's maybe 4 lanes wide…read more There is no security to get into the pool area. Anybody can walk in. You don't have to be staying at the hotel. But then - who would want to come to this hotel pool? You can reserve a cabana online $250-300 for a morning or afternoon. But no way to reserve a day bed online. If you want any shade you need to reserve a daybed - but I really wanted to know the cost before inquiring. There are only about a dozen chaise lounges available for free. And by 10:30 AM they are in full sun - and since it's May - it's 100 degrees out and you need shade. I asked the lifeguard where the restrooms were and he didn't know.

Environment is low key and away from the pool so only the people trying it out and their families are around. Not sure how much the cost is since someone paid for me, but they give you a wristband that is good for 1 hour and within that hour you take turns with others either boogie boarding or standing up on a board. They teach you how to fall safely and also show techniques on how to stay on the board.

I was really disappointed with my experience at the Horseshoe pool today…read more I got into my bathing suit, got everything together for the pool, took the elevator down 24 floors, walked across the casino, went down the escalator, and then made the long walk across the property to get to the pool. Once I got there, I spent about an hour outside in the hot sun trying to get a pool float. Two weeks earlier they had floats that you could use, and I love that because other strip pools don't allow them. I have a bad back so this was a score for me and this is why I specifically picked this hotel to come back to. I asked three different lifeguards about getting one and kept waiting, thinking someone was bringing one or at least checking for me. No one ever came back to tell me there weren't any available. Finally, I tracked down a manager myself, who told me that all of their floats had supposedly been damaged over the past two weeks and they didn't have any. Eight floats were damaged in a two week. Period? I struggled with that. Regardless Instead, after getting completely ready, making the long trip down from the 24th floor and across the property, and then spending an hour waiting at the pool, I finally just gave up and left. The entire trip to the pool ended up being for nothing. If you're staying at Horseshoe and want a pool float, definitely bring your own and I wish I had known that before I went through all of this.

Came here on a weekday and the views were amazing! My husband and I rented out a daybed for the…read morefirst half of the day. It was $25 pp. the daybed was great! It gave us shade for the whole time we were there. Our waitress Hollie was super nice and prompt with getting our orders in. We ordered a few drinks and a turkey sandwich. The sandwich was suuuuuper hard so we asked to switch it and we got the Hawaiian roll turkey Swiss sandwich instead. It was so much better. However....... The sandwiches were not freshly made. It literally came out of a fridge like from a convenient store and of course it cost $15.99. I guess we expected to be fresh since we were on the strip paying for premium price. The pool was soooo cold. It was not heated at all. I know it's summer, but if you're in the pool at 9am, it should be heated. Another thing that was disappointing was that only one side of the pool was open for all guest. So everyone was crammed to one side. I was surprised by that. The staff said they would open it at 10:30 and that never happened. Then was told they didn't have enough lifeguards and it would be closed for the whole day. The staff were not on the same page and were not being transparent with guests. Again, we are on the strip and people pay good money to go here and it was not available. I have to say, the other guests we spoke to in the pool also were complaining about the amenities that they paid for. There are a lot of suggestions to make the Paris hotel pool a better place. Heated pools, fresh food, and fully open the pool. The best thing that we experienced was the view. Overall, the view was beautiful, but our experience did not match it.

You enter across from the Kitchen Table Restaurant. In the dark at night you'll totally miss it…read more There is no exterior signage. There is a sign in the hallway, but that's it. We tried to scout it out at night and we only found it after asking the security guard. They open at 9am and there is a line to get in. I was maybe the 10th one in. I was just checking it out as 9am is way too early for some pool time. At 9 am there was one woman already with her feet in the pool. The pool water is cool to the touch. Other people had claimed their pool chairs and were laying out. Myself and a handful of people were dressed and scouting out the area. They have 3 beautiful pools. All set up with lifeguards. They have a 21+ pool area and they have a staff member sizing you up as you approach. Apparently I look the age so they didn't card me. I'm feeling old now. They have one nautical pool that's a walk in pool. I was told it was perfect for toddlers. Since I'm toddler less I think I'll pass. My guess is there are lots of swim diapers and peek g I. That pool. Hopefully people are t too drunk and peeing in the 21+ pool. We arrived around 11 am for an actual visit to the beach club wearing our suits under our shorts and Tshirts. There were plenty of beach chairs left, but all the ones in the shade were taken. We found some near the middle pool out in the lounge chair corral. So many chairs lined up in the sun. We laid out between plunges for around an hour. I was turning blotchy so it was time to go back inside. If we had some shade we would have stayed longer. They did have padded lunge chairs with umbrellas and cabanas to rent for a hearty fee. We didn't want to spend the extra cash as we still knew it wasn't going to be an all day activity. I did get a virgin strawberry slush out of their slushy machine. It was very refreshing. I highly recommend them. Sadly they didn't offer whipped cream. We loved the pool area and would go back and stay here again for the lovely pool.

Enjoyed a staycation at The Rio this week (5/31 - 6/2) which meant 2 blissful pool days!…read more Ipanema at The Rio has 4 very sizable pools, one of which is 21+ over which is a perfect place for us childfree folks to relax and is where we spent our time. Thanks to Yelp, I was able to see that the free chaise loungers do not have umbrellas. Since my husband is like a vampire and requires shade, I paid the additional $56 for us to have VIP chaise loungers at the 21+ pool which had thick cushions, an umbrella, and side tables. When we checked in we were escorted to the VIP loungers and told we could choose any pair we wanted. They were very comfortable and offered full shade to my husband and I was able to move my chaise out into the sun. The 21+ was really nice with the pool being perfectly cool without freezing, but we were bummed that the waterfalls weren't on. Yelp reviews were absolutely correct as we did see that 90% of the free chaise loungers were in full sun all day with zero relief, so I'm glad we paid extra for guaranteed shade. We made note though of the areas where there was some shade since we'd be taking advantage of the free loungers on day two at the pool. We got there earlier and practically had the entire place to ourselves, so we were easily able to snag some of the few free chaise's that had some shade from the trees. Vampire hubby was happy with his shaded chaise and I was happily sizzling in the sun. Overall, I really liked this pool (we've been to a total of 8 resort pools over the last 18 months); I'd put this in my top 4. I liked the fact they had a 21+ area that wasn't a day club, just a relaxing childfree pool, the overall layout of the entire pool area was spacious and easy to navigate, and that they allow you to bring an empty Hydroflask / reusable water bottle inside to refill at the water station inside Bar Aqua. A few minor complaints is that this pool isn't open to locals unless you are Tier Azul (minimum) for Rio's player's club or you pay for VIP loungers/cabanas. This is also the only Vegas pool we've been to that had no umbrellas at all for the free loungers and very few side tables for them; very strange and kind of harsh for guests considering how brutal our desert sun can be - I personally don't mind since I love to tan, but my husband and friends don't share that same affinity for tanning that I do and require some shade. You'd also think The Rio would want to prevent guests who aren't used to the desert heat from getting sick with heat exhaustion or heat stroke by having umbrellas placed throughout the free lounge areas; thus reducing their liability, but what do I know I guess. Lastly, the cocktail waitresses were just okay. Service was very inconsistent between the two days and our primary waitress on day 1 was extremely pushy, constantly trying to upsell us when we ordered drinks and food which was annoying. Usually pool servers get the hint when you decline an upsell the 1st time... Despite my minor complaints, I did enjoy our time at the Ipanema Pool and I wish I could go more often as a local.
