Mandalay Bay Reviews
The Mandalay Bay takes up residence on the south side of the Las Vegas Strip, and is a tropically themed bastion of delight. A pool complex with a wave pool, and rooms with great amenities are the highlights of Mandalay Bay.

Mandalay Bay
I go to Vegas a couple of times a year and The Mandalay Bay is my favorite hotel The standard rooms are the best in town, spacious with a huge bathroom that include a double sink, toilets with a separate door, and the bedrooms are just as huge. we got a free upgrade to a pool view room, the windows go from ceiling to floor, the pool is great but it does get crowded also, we got a rate of $89/night that week. amazing price. The restaurants are good but it would be nice to have a few mid-price options.

World Class!
I've stayed in 6 different resorts in Vegas, and Mandalay was by far the best. I never left the resort for three days and had the best time ever in Vegas. The room was beautiful, the food was great and I loved the floral smell everywhere you went. The spa was like heaven, just perfect. The pool area was paradise, and the casino was great!

Very nice renovated rooms
Very nice renovated roomsGreat experience all around. Only negative was too few cocktail waitresses in the casino. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and newly renovated rooms were perfect. There was a big boxing match during our stay, and security did a great job keeping the wild crowd in check. Highly recommend staying here to anyone except seniors or limited mobility patrons (it's HUGE).

One of the best in Vegas
One of the best in VegasThis is truly an excellent hotel. Everything from the service to the food is worth the stay and every penny. Rooms are spacious and airy, bathrooms are very roomy with tons of mirrors, my wife really appreciated this feature, the wave pool was a nice refreshing perk and if offered an upgrade, it's well worth the extra money. Beautiful hotel, beautiful people, beautiful atmosphere.

Mandalay Bay
We stayed at the Mandalay Bay for 5 nights in January and overall, I'd say our stay at this hotel was just a little better than OK. The room was clean but dimly lit. The shower stall had a little mildew in the corners. The bed was comfortable. The window valance had water marks. Food in the buffet was good. $35 will get you food all day. Plenty of cabs to get you where you like. Costs about $22 to take a cab to Freemont Street. Local bus, the Duece costs $7 for 24 hours but is very slow and some times very crowded. The airport is very close to this hotel The concierge offers a 6 hour bus tour of Hoover Dam, Ethel M's candy factory and a cactus garden. Actually an excellent tour.

Loved the Mandalay Bay!
Our only complaints were that the front desk staff seemed to be understaffed most of the time and the door to our room didn't block much hallway noise.
The pool/beach, yes there was actually a sandy beach, is PHENOMENAL, and that is the only way to describe it.
We could have stayed at The Mandalay Bay for a week and never leave the hotel grounds. However, the restaurants are rather pricey so depending on your taste and budget, you will be able to find plenty of restaurants in or around the hotel.
The casino in the Mandalay Bay is the lease smokiest out of all of the other casinos we had been to.
Our room was the standard (550 DR) room on the 23rd floor with a poolside view. Very spacious and well appointed. I didn't post any pictures but will figure out how to upload them and post them soon.

Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino is a deal
It was bargain to be able to get the same rate at the Mandalay Bay as seven years ago. It is good to see the climbing wine angels are still at Aureole restaurant. One of the better features of this hotel casino is that you don't have to walk through the casino to get to guess room elevator or any of the public areas. You can use the monorail to get to other hotels which are located in the center of the strip. I love the spacious lobby and suite, and the exceptional service from the time that I checked in to checked out. There is no reason to leave the hotel because everything you need is here.

Mandalay Bay perfect for MAGIC
I was one of the lucky attendees of the MAGIC tradeshow to get a room at the Mandalay Bay! I booked as soon as I knew the dates of the convention. It was worth the money. The show was being held in two locations, one being the convention center at Mandalay Bay, the other at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The walk to the show was a little long, but much better than waiting in a line for the shuttle to the other location.
Apparently, there is a Four Season's in the building. From the minute I walked into the hotel, the staff was excellent. They must train the regular hotel staff the same curteous manners the Four Season's staff demonstates. The service and treatment I was shown felt like 5 star service without the 5 star price. My room was big and well laid out. The bathroom was nearly as large as the room itself.
It's Febuary and I still was able to enjoy the pool for a couple hours one afternoon...I loved the meandering flow of the river pool. The entire pool area was beautiful and relaxing. I wish I had more time to lounge there.
I had zero complaints on this lovely hotel and can't wait to come back again during the next tradeshow.

I loved the Mandalay Bay
I love the Mandalay Bay in Vegas. The staff were so helpful and polite, especially the Concierge who arranged tickets and dinner reservations for us.
The room was spacious with a huge bathroom. We had a view of the mountains which was quite relaxing!
We ate at the buffet which was what we expected and has just about every type of food to suit everybody's desires. We also ate at Aureole which was excellent in every way!
The casino here is much quieter than a lot of the others in Vegas. The pool areas are great and our favorite was the adults only pool, The Morea Beach Club, or something like that. (It did get a bit crazy up there).
My only small issue with this hotel is that I would have liked to have been further up on the strip. Mandalay Bay is just about the first hotel/casino you get to on the strip from the airport. Actually, we really never left the hotel grounds so I guess it wouldn't have mattered if we were further up on the strip or not.

Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino
We were excited to be staying in such a glamorous hotel. However, we quickly learned that THEhotel at Mandalay Bay does not provide the complimentary services that many high-end hotels now provide. We couldn not exercise in the hotel gym unless we wanted to pay a significant amount per person per day. REDICULOUS!
Also, there is no coffee maker or complimentary coffee in the room.
Our other disappointment was that the lobby to THEhotel was underwhelming, as opposed to the amazing lobby at Mandalay Bay. When the taxi dropped us off, I felt like we were coming in thought the employee entrance. Some guests might like this quieter locale but if you like to be able to walk out of your hotel into the excitement of the Vegas strip, you might want to consider staying in the main part of the Mandalay Bay Hotel.

My stay at THEhotel was absolutely amazing! I LOVE this hotel.
I invited 8 girlfriends to join me in Vegas for my 30th birthday! I wanted to treat myself and my friends to a better than average weekend...so i booked the upgraded suite and paid for the room as a surprize to them! They're expressions were priceless!!!
It was expensive, but what the money paid for was very worth it! We were greeted at the airport with a limo, nice touch for my girlfriends that aren't used to that kind of treatment.
One super cool touch was our sheets would be turned down both nights...it felt like they were lurking outside waiting for us to leave the room that evening.
We got line passes to all the nightclubs at Mandalay Bay...which we used! Mix Lounge was my favorite!
The spa was beautiful...a few of us, got massages, but all of us enjoyed the spa facilities.
I am so glad I chose to stay at THEhotel at Mandalay Bay. It was a lovely and wonderful birthday weekend! I'll be back!
