Keep the summer vibes going with a stay that will have you jumping, dipping, sliding or cannonballing into all the Las Vegas action. From the city's famous high-energy pool parties to the sprawling waters at Resorts World Las Vegas (the largest pool complex on the Las Vegas Strip), Sin City is just as much a destination for its pools as its casinos and late-night entertainment. Make memorable plans for:

Splash into the biggest pool in Las Vegas

Well, technically, it's the biggest pool complex — Resorts World Las Vegas has not one but seven fantastic pools that span an expansive 5.5 acres. You need to be a hotel guest to jump in, but it's totally worth booking a night here for access alone.

Make reservations for the VIP pool if you want to lounge in an elevated 1,800-square-foot infinity pool and take in breathtaking views of the Strip. Meanwhile, the circular Main Resort Pool features submerged lounge chairs and a full bar just steps away. There's also a roomy kids' pool, which is great even if you're not traveling with kids, as it keeps the other spaces fairly child-free. There's also the Southeast Asian-inspired Ayu Dayclub, which offers a classic pool party vibe, complete with A-list DJ hosts.

Not in the mood to swim? The huge complex also has a few places to eat, grassy areas with lawn games and Papasan chairs, swings, daybeds and cabanas, among other sleek features.

Catch a game

Combine epic Las Vegas pool parties with the best features of a world-class sports bar and you get Stadium Swim. The MVP here is the 143-foot-wide screen that plays everything from basketball to football games. Plus, with six pools, a swim-up bar, daybeds and cabanas all facing the screen, you can cheer on your favorite teams without missing a single play.

Let your troubles float away

At more than 650-feet-long and surrounded by tiki torches, Tahiti Village's lazy river is one of the most relaxing places to spend a day in the sun. (Note: you'll need to be a guest of the hotel to dive in.) Grab a cocktail and an inner tube (they're complimentary for the guests), and you're ready to settle in for the leisurely ride. Four waterfall features, a tropical bar, a palm tree island, tiki statues and plenty of thatched umbrellas and loungers complete the South Pacific aesthetic.

Enjoy poolside pampering

If you're in Las Vegas for a bachelor or bachelorette party, grab your crew and head to Liquid Pool Lounge to experience one of the most intimate and exclusive pools on the Strip. This adults-only space pool includes private cabanas, high-tech amenities and multiple bars, creating a high-end hideaway that won't disappoint. It's a luxury experience, so expect to pay around $550 for even the most affordable reserved space.

Of course, most reservations also come with a generous food-and-drink credit, so if you're sampling cocktails all day, this might be the perfect deal.

Beach party meets pool party

Not a morning person? No problem. Plan a visit to Encore Beach Club and you can stay up late into the evening and sleep in as long as you want. Held three nights a week, this exclusive evening brings the best of pool parties and nightclubs to life. (Plus, the prices are typically more affordable than your standard day rates.)

Anything goes in Vegas — wear your swimsuit and flip-flops or your best clubwear. If you're opting for bottle service, consider booking one of the floating "lily pads," or water couches, for the ultimate late-night hang-out spot.

Dive into temptaion

The pool complex at Luxor is huge — the pool alone covers 20,000 sqaure feet. On Sundays, it plays host to the longest-running LGBTQ+ pool party. "Temptation Sundays" run all summer long and feature themed parties, guest DJs, surprise celebrity guests and more. You don't have to be a guest to soak up the sun. Rent a daybed or cabana in advance and get ready to dive deep into relaxation mode.
