What is Mix at Mandalay Bay ?

It is a Fine dining Restaurant and Lounge/niteclub, I am not sure about dancing but assume there would be some.

Check view from MIX pics in the dining review section of TA.

IMO Best view of strip.

What is Mix at Mandalay Bay ?

That tower (THE Hotel) is shaped like an L, but both sides are the same size. One side is the restaurant and one side is the lounge. The best views are from the lounge side as the window faces directly towards the Luxor Pyramid and down the strip. I don%26#39;t think the views from the restaurant side are very good. I would only say they are good if you eat outside on the patio. Most of the tables against the windows are booths and you sit with your back to the window. The restaurant is expensive and they charge you for everything. 10 bucks for that bottle of water they pour you when you sit down. You would think water would be free, but they serve bottled water for 10 bucks a bottle. Some large tables had 4 or 5 bottles coming. That%26#39;s 40 or 50 bucks. We went to the Lounge side around 10PM. Only took a quick look, but no music was playing nor did I see an area for dancing. Mainly a big bar in the middle with lounge tables all around. There is a patio portion of the lounge with tables and couches.

sunsplash cocktail at Bellagio

I really like the sunsplash cocktail at Bellagio and I make them at home. Contains stoli orange vodka, cointreau, cranberry and fresh orange juice with a splash of sour. Does anyone know of another name for this drink if I order it somewhere other than the Bellagio?

Sounds kind of like a souped up Cosmopolitan with Orange juice.

Will be in Vegas from May 27-30 2005. Need Recommendations

Will be in vegas this May 27-30 @ Treasure Island with a great deal of 79 dollars a night and wanted to know of any great recommendations for a group of 4. Recommendations for activites, shows and GREAT buffets. Any recommendations are welcome. Thanks

Did you book your hotel room with your travel agent? If so, he/she can provide you with a wealth of information on activities, shows, etc. Your travel agent can even pre-book many of those activities for you.

No, I didn%26#39;t book with a travel agent. I got a hell of a deal from the hotel that I book it directly. But can anyone give me recommendations that they have experience in vegas? Activites, buffets, shows that you have been to and have leaved with a AWESOME attitude.

Pool security checking key cards.

I paid for The Flamingo for one Sunday night and will be comped at TI from Monday through Wednesday. I plan on using the Flamingo pool for the entire time if I do not like the pool at TI.

I thought I read somewhere that some hotels have been scanning key cards now for pool access. Is that true?

Pool security checking key cards.

TGIJeff: Any hotel/casino I%26#39;ve stayed in either check your card, especially for towels, or you have to put the hotel room key into the gate before admittance..However, I walked the entire pool area at the Flamingo on my last trip and never was questioned and could have lounged at any of them..JJ

Pool security checking key cards.

TI has redone their pool, and it%26#39;s better now just too small.I know you have to have a key card to use the main pool at the Flamingo, I just don%26#39;t remember them scanning it. Keep your key card from Sunday. We just stayed at the LV Hilton last month, and all they did is glance at the card and gave us a towel. I%26#39;m sure Mandalay Bay and some of the other fancy hotels actually scan the cards (I think the Mirage did when we were there last), but I don%26#39;t remember the Flamingo doing so.

Mandalay scans the card and every person, regardless of age, has to have a key card. Even a 1 month old baby.

They may keep pushing your gorlfriend back into the water.

V-happy

Are you insinuating that my girlfriend, Shanequakeshia, is some sort of water mammal?

The last time we were at Flamingo, little kids were shouting hurtful insults like ';Shamu'; or ';Beached Whale!';

Please keep your snide remarks to yourself otherwise she may have to sit on you.

First Visit to Las Vegas

We will be in Las Vegas for our first visit in September. I do not know where to start picking a hotel as there are so many to choose from. Would be looking at three to four star. Any opinions which I should look at would be much appreciated.

First Visit to Las Vegas

For your first time to vegas, I recommend to people going on their first trip to stay at Mirage or Treasure Island because of it%26#39;s LOCATION and theme of hotel. Hope this helps.

First Visit to Las Vegas

Those are both good choices and you cant go wrong with the center strip location.

It would be easier for people here to recommend a hotel if you provided a few more details like your age(es), if you like to gamble or a specific type of gambling, if you like a party atmosphere or a quiet location, if you want a Spa or really enjoy a pool , your price range - are you looking for $50 a night or $150 a night, are you looking for luxury or just a place to sleep at night, will you have children with you?

Monte Carlo should be on top of your list. 4-star hotel with 3-star price, and 5-star service. It is the best deal on the strip with a great south central location.

Question on a coupon, also low-end hotel question

I have a 2 for 1 menu item at ellis island. Can i get the $4.95 steak special with that coupon even though its ';not'; on the menu? Also should I bring my own shampoo and soap and such if I%26#39;m staying at a lower end hotel? Ill be staying at Cortez and plaza.

Question on a coupon, also low-end hotel question

I am not sure about the coupon, but I always bring my own soap, shampoo, etc. no matter what hotel I go to...I prefer my own brand. If I like theirs I will use it. I love getting Bath and Body Works, Neutrogena, etc. @ hotels, but even all those products aren%26#39;t all good.

Question on a coupon, also low-end hotel question

the el cortez and plaza are both good,

they should have cheap shampoo and soap , check out cheapo vegas for more info on rooms

Ellis Island will let you use the coupon on the steak special

The El Cortez has soap, shampoo, %26amp; mouthwash. I think they also might have lotion, too.

Gnejs: I think you will be surprised at how great the Cortez rooms are...had 2 nights comped and the room is large, with a huge desk, sofa, large bed and very clean with a great view...the casino is also very good and only a short walk to the Fremont Experience...

Yea, Ive read a lot of good stuff bout the cortez, and im getting 2 nights for $35 which isnt shabby :)

Gnejs, just make sure you get ';tower'; rooms at El Cortez.

The rooms they call ';main building double doubles'; are in a motel-like complex built on top of their parking garage. I found it kind of creepy up there after dark, to tell you the truth.

haha, yea, its the tower king for $35 weekday there.

And pretty please post a trip report. I%26#39;ve heard so much about the El Cortez I%26#39;m seriously considering it as our next place to stay.

where did you get the 2 for 1 cooupon for ellis island??
