Las Vegas guide and MSE thread 2016

Hi, was hoping for some advice.

There's 7 of us going to Vegas in May, staying at the Flamingo for a week. We're all male, and were looking to go to a pool party. What's the best way to arrange this?

Depending on price we were thinking of hiring a daybed/cabana and splitting it 7 ways, so at least we have somewhere where we can "relax" - as I've heard that with General Admission it's absolutely rammed and can be pretty stressful having nowhere to sit.

Does anyone have any experience or guidance on this? How much money might we be talking for this? Should I just start emailing hotels or is there some company that can arrange this?

Thanks!

Surely it's impossible to predict that?

It is impossible to predict, but markets love stability and until June we have zero stability.

Not sure if the link will work but Jessie Gibson has a great pool party guide. https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/vegaspoolseason/2016+Pool+Party+Guide_v2.0.pdf?utm_source=email&utm_campaign=vps_guide

when over 90% of analysts are asked if it goes higher or lower they state lower!

predicting a market in uncertain times is quite easy....90% of them do down.

Not sure of the question however

GC Details

North Rim will most likely be closed

West rim is private and not worth the effort

Toroweap\Tuweep will be impassable

South rim is the place where everyone goes

Hopefully you are planning to stay one night as it's a long drive :cool:

Question answered, thanks!


I am driving there and a friend is driving back, all in the one day I'm afraid

I've been looking into this too, there are 7 of us (guys) going in April and I was looking at getting a table at a pool party.
Apparently how it works is you must spend a minimum (say $1500) to be allowed the table/area. I think the best way to arrange it is contacting a host before you go, I found jackcolton.com quite helpful!
We're looking at Wet Republic which hopefully will be easier as we are staying in the MGM.
Hope you get it sorted and let us know how you get on :beer:

The confusing bit ( to me anyway) was

considering the National Park

AFAIK the Grand Canyon is a national park.

From Vegas it's just less than 300 miles there and back
