Rooftop Pools in Las Vegas – Spectacular Views!

Words like luxurious, exorbitant, and stunning are commonly used when describing pools in Las Vegas. While most pool scenes are built to impress, only a select few offer equally impressive views of the city.

With pool season right around the corner, I thought it would be fun to provide a rundown of rooftop pools in Vegas, both on the Strip and on Fremont Street.

Rooftop Pools on Fremont Street

Circa‘s Stadium Swim

While Circa may have a view of surrounding properties downtown, all eyes will be on the gargantuan 143-foot high-definition TV screen that broadcasts sporting events and plays host to watch parties.

In addition to being a sports haven, Stadium Swim offers poolside gaming, 2 swim-up bars, and 330+ loungers.

Best yet, the rooftop pool at Circa is 21+. No kids allowed. The way Vegas was intended to be.

While guests staying at Circa, Golden Gate, and The D get in free, the pool is open to the public for a cover fee that varies from day to day.

Circa’s easily ranks as my preferred rooftop pool experience in Vegas.

Downtown Grand

A mere block away from Fremont Street, the Citrus Pool Deck at Downtown Grand overlooks the Fremont Street Experience and the resorts that comprise it.

While it’s not a “take your breath away” type view, fans of Downtown Vegas are likely to enjoy the scenery.

What I like most about the pool at DTG is the lack of crowds. I’ve stayed at the property multiple times and have never struggled to find a lounger.

Plaza

Anchoring the Fremont Street Experience, Plaza’s rooftop pool deck overlooks several downtown properties.

Sitting in the shadow of Plaza’s main hotel tower, guests will also enjoy the signature 21-story “Behind Closed Doors” mural. Created by artist D*Face, the poolside mural depicts a sinister hand opening a door to the dismay of the woman hiding behind it.

While the pool itself is on the small side, the pool deck offers a bar, pickleball, and blackjack in addition to a view of downtown.

Notably, Plaza is one of the few hotels in Las Vegas with poolside hotel guestrooms.

Binion’s Hotel Apache & 4 Queens

Sitting atop the 25th floor of the Mint hotel tower which opened in 1965, the pool at Binion’s boasts the highest elevation in Las Vegas.

Although the rooms in the tower below remain shuttered, the rooftop pool is available for guests of Binion’s Hotel Apache and sister property 4 Queens across the street.

What the pool deck itself lacks in grandeur is made up for with the view it provides – Easily the best rooftop pool view in downtown Vegas.

Interestingly, Binion’s hotel pool also reaches depths of 8 feet which is uncommon for pools in Vegas.

Rooftop Pools On The Strip

Resorts World

The newest resort on the strip offers a rooftop pool complex that has a little something for everyone.

Spanning 5.5-acres, the pool deck has 9 separate pools that include a zero-depth option for kids and an infinity pool that overlooks resorts to the south on the Strip.

In addition to pools and loungers, the complex has a number of hammocks and yard games that anyone can take advantage of.

Paris

Wedged between Paris’ hotel tower and its replica Eiffel Tower, the Soleil pool deck is certainly unique.

In addition to the uniqueness of swimming in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower, guests also have views of the center-strip properties that surround the resort.

Planet Hollywood

Also located center Strip, Planet Hollywood’s pool area dubbed “The Scene” features 2 pools and 2 separate bars.

Overlooking Cosmopolitan, Aria, Paris, and Bellagio the pool deck also offers access (for a fee) to the Flowrider wave machine enabling guests to surf in the middle of the desert.

Cromwell

Comprised of 2 pools and 6 separate hot tubs, the pool deck at Cromwell is located on the 12th-story rooftop.

Keep in mind that the pool doubles as Drai’s Beach Club on the weekends which is a raucous party atmosphere.

Weekdays, however, tend to be pretty tame and provide some of the best poolside views of the Strip.

Interestingly, the Boulevard Pool deck doubles as a rooftop theater in the summer as part of Cosmopolitan’s “Dive-in Movies” program.

During the colder months, the pool deck transforms into an ice rink, making it one of the more unique winter activities in Las Vegas.

LINQ

On the second-floor roof deck adjacent to the Linq Promenade, LINQ’s Influence pool has limited views of Strip properties Flamingo and Horseshoe.

My favorite aspect of the view, however, is how the High Roller observation wheel peeks out from behind Linq’s hotel tower.

LINQ’s pool is 21+ and tends to have a bit more of a party vibe – It may not be the best option if you’re not a fan of loud bass.

Fontainebleau

The new kid on the north end of the Strip also boasts an impressive rooftop pool deck comprised of 7 pools, a day club, 2 dining options, and poolside gaming.

While I have yet to experience Fontainebleau’s pool, I found the rest of the resort to be awe-inspiring when I visited on opening day.
