The Pool At the M Resort

I like this better than the Boulevard Pool at the Cosmo. Layout is better, more spread-​out. Staff is very friendly, great service!

Grrrrr. Come on M!!! You got me back with offering locals in for a very small fee, AWESOME! But you still, after all these years can’t get the pool
Service right! What’s the deal? 1 HR 8 mins to get the rounds of drinks we ordered. You weren’t busy by any means and were over staffed, how is that even possible?! We would have easily spent over $ 100 on food and beverage but couldn’t get the waitress to ever come back. Even the couples on both sides of us got so annoyed they left. Come on M, get it right so I can come back!

Love it here. We come every summer with my husband and now 5 year old son. We are locals and they are very accomodating. Prices aren’t outrageous and very friendly staff. The pool in itself is beautiful and very family friendly. This is our go-​to pool! :)
Updated post June 7, 2016: I’ve come here many times with my family and have always had an excellent experience. Today is the first day ever I’ve had to complain. I visit the pool every month because locals are free before noon and weekends are $ 10 all day. What a steal! My son and husband were playing in the pool all day so I ordered a cheese quesadilla appetizer and 2 ice waters. They’ve always given ice waters out without problems in the past. The server, Ashley, comes about 20 – 30 minutes with our order… no utensils… and two plastic cups of water. No ice. I asked where is the ice? She tells me… she’s actually not supposed to serve ice waters at all bc they’re complimentary and I’m actually supposed to get them myself at the bar so that’s what I should do if I want ice (By the way, I’m 9 months pregnant). Oh, and no straws. Hm… ok. so I said alright… perhaps the rules have changed. No problem. Paid $ 11 for our $ 8.60 bill. Then she leaves for a second and returns to tell me she can bring me some ice on her way back. When she returns I give her another $ 1. Another waitress comes by later, she was so much nicer. Unfortunately I didn’t get her name. She had long brown hair. Anyway, I pre-​tipped her $ 2 and asked for 2 ice waters. She returned in about 5 minutes with 2 iced water with straws. No questions or comments about her doing me a «favor». It’s not that big of a deal but I was disappointed. Now I’m curious as to what the real rules are since never before in the past years have I had an issue.

Awesome for locals. Amazing service. Beautiful pool. We rented a cabana here last weekend at the Daydream Pool (Adult pool). Our waitress was awesome, food was amazing, and heated pool felt great. My only negative thing I could say, would be that the music was a touch too loud. Loud music is fine, but my friends and I had to literally scream to have a conversation over the music.

I am in love with this pool and probably go here once a month during open season. Even with lots of people it’s never too busy, so it’s a super relaxing pool far away from the traffic/​craziness of the Strip.
If you are here with friends make sure to get a daybed or cabana. They only require you spend a minimum charge on food & beverage. Food menu has a good variety, including a full menu with nachos, chicken tenders and burgers, and a quick snack menu with salads & sandwiches. Everything is delicious. Their drink menu is SO REFRESHING — I definitely recommend their bahama mama and watermelon mojito! A pitcher is $ 45 and carries about 4 drinks and the bartenders don’t skimp you on the alcohol content.
I’ve been here on colder days and the pool is always a perfect temperature where you can swim comfortably. They also don’t panic when it lightly rains for a few minutes and shut everything down — if you would like to keep swimming, they will let you. Staff is also lax on people bringing drinks near the pool as long as you’re not right in the middle of the pool, but understandably not so much with food.
Such a nice getaway & relaxing pool — love love love!

This is my favorite pool to go to in Vegas. It’s not on the Strip so I don’t have to deal with traffic and the crowds. The parking lot is really close to the pool and it’s never full when I go. The workers here are generally nice and courteous.
On their website, they stated that they charge locals $ 20 on weekends. A few years ago, it used to be $ 10 for guys and free for local ladies. I can’t remember what I said to the Asian girl but she let me in for free. Cool, I didn’t have to pay $ 20. They also give you a small bottle of water with your towels which is nice.
I like that this is a relaxing, family pool and it’s not crowded. I don’t have to roll my eyes at drunk douchebags or skanky girl tourists screaming woohoo Vegas baby or worry about anyone bumping into me. There are kids here but I’d rather deal with them and they don’t bug me as much as the rowdy tourists.
The cabanas, beds, and drinks are a lot cheaper than on the Strip. They play music out loud but not as loud as the pool parties on the Strip. It’s a perfect place for me to sunbathe and go for a dip in the pool.

I love this pool, I could hang out here every day. Paying 10 bucks on weekdays and 20 on weekends, no problem!
Cocktail servers were walking past me all day without asking if I needed anything. Jokes on you. I was going to order from the bar anyways!
Bathrooms were nice, whoever cleans them is awesome!
Summary: Ended up paying $ 16 for a cocktail from the bar which tasted awful, after being denied service all day and paying a $ 10 entry fee. Bathrooms were clean!
2 whole stars

Had a wonderful and relaxing time poolside Sunday afternoon two weeks ago! It was not crowded which we loved and was family friendly that day.
We did not order food but we did order a couple of drinks: bloody Mary (good), margarita with fruit that the waitress recommended (decent).
There were a few pools and jacuzzis. There are plenty of towels and complimentary small water bottles at the front and plenty of comfortable lounge chairs. Bathrooms were clean. Daybeds were available for $ 150 worth of items of their menu but we passed on that. The kids and adults had a blast!

Bored of the pool in your back yard or apartment complex? This is definitely a great alternative to change it up for a day. Went here for a friend of a friend’s birthday and I absolutely enjoyed it. There are two pools: the main pool for everyone and the 21+ pool. The main pool is a great size and I love that there is a super shallow part where you can put lounge chairs and lay so your tanning but also getting splashed by the water to cool off from the heat.
I don’t know what the cabanas are like since we didn’t stay in one, but our group did get day beds and had to spend a certain amount to be able to stay there. Definitely worth it though! The 21+ pool is pretty small and was pretty crowded while we were there, but it was a nice change of pace from the family filled main pool.
The main issue I had with this place was the service. First of all, we were required to spend a certain amount and it might have taken forever to get to that amount because of how long it took for us to get anything. We were clearly there to party and it would take a ridiculous amount of time for us to get something as simple as a round of straight shots. If they were busier and there were more people ordering, I could understand… But it just wasn’t. Our drinks were pretty simple (no specialty cocktails or crazy mixtures here) and there really was no reason for us to have to wait as long as we did to get our orders. Also, the kitchen closed pretty early especially in comparison to the pool close time. If you’re there and you’re drinking, you’re gonna need a bite at the end of a booze filled day and an early kitchen close does not help with that.
Definitely an easy place to take the group and have a good time, but certainly room for improvement.

This pool is great for locals! I went on a Tuesday and Wednesday, there were lots of kids but I didn’t mind them. Daybeds had a minimum of $ 100 for food and beverage! Which is great since we planned to spend the day drinking.
Day 1:
Josh helped us book the daybed. He was very helpful in picking a spot to match all our needs. We had a daybed to the right of the pool, it was very spacious with curtains that helped block the shade. The best part about it was that the seats reclined! For a daybed it was so relaxing being able to sit up comfortably. Marissa was our server! She was AWESOME! Very personable. Her customer service made our experience 100% better. The drinks took some time to come out but they were all delicious. She also brought us lemon drop shots with sugar on the rim which made them so much yummier!
Day 2:
On our second day we chose a daybed on the pool. It was a tad bit smaller but we liked being able to be right on the water. I am sad to say our experience wasn’t as great as the first. Our server was mediocre. I don’t remember her name. She was friendly but not personable. She just took the orders and left. Drinks took forever to come out! Probably 15 – 30 mins for our drinks. When they finally got to us they were very watered down. The food isn’t that great either.
My 4 star review was based off the first day and Marissa. Because of that day I would come back again!

I am so impressed with everyone who works here. I’m a local and this is the best pool for service, kids, and fun (my opinion of course).
They pay attention to detail… Towels and bottles of water handed to you as you walk in. Not overcrowded during the week. Restroom facilities are clean and staff helpful. Cabana’s are a great deal… spend $ 250 on food/​drinks (so easy to do with a group) and its free for whole day!!! So worth it!
Cabana’s had couch-​bed and amenities like fridge, freezer, safe, t.v., complimentary chips, juice, water. Kaylee our waitress was wonderful! Watermelon mohitos are great!

Being a local Hendersonite, it’s great to take some time during the summer to cool off that The M Resort Pool. For locals, it is $ 15 – 25 for the day (depending on the day of the week) and you can use the spa as well to shower, shave, relax in the sauna or private jacuzzi’s (you even get your own private locker, sandals, and a robe to use).
The main pool area is relaxing and has plenty of casual lounge chairs to lay on. If you plan on spending $ 50+ on food/​drinks, you can relax in one of the double-​wide pool beds. Cabanas are even available for rent with their own 3-​person jacuzzi, fridge, TV, safe, couch, and lounge chairs. This pool area has two outdoor hot tubs and a couple of restrooms to use without having to go inside to the spa. The bar area is a great place to sit under a covering and enjoy your lunch. There is also a cafeteria that is open from time to time for different types of snack foods.
The private pool is for those over 21 and allows a more party feel to the environment.
Overall, I enjoy the quiet atmosphere and the services offered at this pool. It is a great place to relax and get tanned while having food and beverages served to you by the waitresses.

The food here was satisfactory and decent for a Grill by the pool.
Before ordering, I had questions about the menu items and asked Rosie the girl cashiering. Rosie was not well trained and did not know about any of the menu items I asked about. The prep cook Erica was very knowledgable and very helpful. Without her being around to answers questions I don’t think I would have ordered any food from the Grille. I guess while we were still figuring out what we wanted Rosie put through an order and I told her I hadn’t ordered anything yet. She said «You did order and now I have to void this order» acting like I had seriously inconvenienced her. I ended up ordering the turkey burger and my friend ordered the grilled chicken sandwich. I liked that the turkey burger came on a wheat bun, but the turkey party was under seasoned and the accompanying cranberry mayonnaise way too sweet and tasted artificial. The side of fruit was sad and not fresh at all. About 15 minutes later my stomach started to hurt because I know my stomach didn’t like the food I put into it. At this point I wanted some type of compensation because of the service and because I was unable to enjoy the pool and which is why I came here in the first place.
We went back to the Grille and asked to speak with a manager. The Assistant Manager named Mike asked why we had called him down. I explained the whole situation to him and he said he can’t give any type of refund without showing the food to the chef. I had already thrown the food out and was not going to dig through the trash can. I told him I was in the hospitality industry and he was handling the situation in a poor manner. He once again he said unless we have the food their was nothing he could do. To me it’s a simple situation to handle. You know the customer is upset and not enjoying their time at your facility so the worst way to handle it is to say there is nothing you can do.
After this, I was even more hot and bothered so I made my way to the front desk where I spoke to Krista. She listened to my concerns and said she would call another manager up from the pool. Once again Mike shows up and the Pool/​Nightlight Manager. Pool Manager said I would have to fill out an incident report before receiving any money back. I did it even though I had no type of food poisoning and all I needed was a little Pepto. Both men once again apologized and said we hope to see you again.
This should have been an easy fix to a simple issue but instead it took an additional 30 min to get any type of compensation.
I wanted to check out Jayde Fuzion and the Spa but after what had happened I was ready to leave.

What a great hidden gem in Las Vegas! A little bit away from The Strip, The M Resort has a gigantic pool for everyone to enjoy, and a 21+ area, too! It’s $ 10 per person for locals and definitely worth the price. Awesome service, delicious food, and strong drinks, too! My girlfriend and I were there this past Sunday and it turned into quite the party, with an awesome DJ and champagne sprayed everywhere. We went to the Caesars Palace pool the next day and my girlfriend’s first remark was that M Resort even has them beat!

What a great pool! We were in the VIP Cabanas up by the stage. The service was great and timely. The pool area was kept very clean. The temp of the water was perfect and not too cold!
I ordered a club sandwich which comes on a flaky & butter croissant, with turkey, lettuce, tomato, bacon, Swiss & avocado. You had a choice of sides, French fries, fruit and one other I don’t remember. I chose the fruit, which was fresh & refreshing. I felt the prices were reasonable for a hotel pool.
Overall a great day!

I went to the M Resort pool back on Memorial Day. The place is great for locals and families and apparently lots of others already knew that as there were plenty of people around. We got a daybed and had to spend at least $ 150 in food and beverages, which wasn’t a hard with a total of six of us. The food was decent — typical bar-​type food… the wings were hot and crispy, the southwest chicken wrap was basically a chicken caesar salad in a wrap. There was nothing «southwest» about it. The caipirinhas were good and strong but the white sangria was way too sweet.
It was an excellent way to spend the day. Despite the large crowds it never felt too busy. There was always room to swim. For adults who don’t want to deal with the kiddies running around, the adults-​only pool is steps away in a fenced off area.
Excellent pool, mediocre food.

When it comes to love for locals, most hotel pools have none. You either have to be a guest or pay an outrageous entrance fee that takes some money out of your booze funds. The Pool at the M has many wonderful qualities, but the fact that locals can get in for $ 10 is number one.
Sure The M is a bit out of the way, but totally worth the drive and $ 10 to get in to a pool that doesn’t look like a human Petri dish. If you like the Petri dish experience, their club pool Daydream is an option, but since I’m over the age of 25 and look at poolside drinking as a marathon and not a sprint, it really doesn’t interest me.
There are technically two pools side by side which is nice if you want to hop out of one to avoid screaming, splashing children which they have an abundance of, but not enough that make me not want to come back here. The lifeguards are pretty good at keeping wild children at a minimum. The pool is surrounded with generous seating, cabanas that are reasonably priced and a few in-​pool lounge chairs that you can probably only get if you’re there first thing in the morning. You can probably get as many towels as you’d like upon check-​in, but I usually just get two.
The only draw to this place is the painfully slow service. While the attendants are pretty friendly, they are slug slow and I’m not sure if it’s because they’re inattentive or the bar is just backed up. The bar menu is reasonably priced and has a variety of pretty standard poolside food and beverage. My strategy is to pick up a menu on my way to find seating, determine what I want before I sit down and be ready to order as soon as you can flag a waitress down. An even more efficient strategy is just to order all of your drinks at once, or at least two at a time, so that you’re not waiting in the balance for upwards of 40 minutes.
Overall, I love this pool. Despite the mediocre service, it’s a chill (and CHEAP) scene for boozy summer tan sessions.

One of those best kept secrets of Vegas. IE the pool here is awesome.
We went to their day club for a birthday. No hassle at the door.
The music volume was perfect so you aren’t going deaf.
The staff was great.
It wasn’t overly crowded.
And the day beds that fit 4 people were only like $ 150 (which counted towards the drinks).
I would definitely come back here.
Btw when you walk in to the casino from the valet, just keep going forward and down the stairs and the pool is right there.

One of the advantages to being a Las Vegas local, are access to the resort pools. The M Resort has an awesome deal for locals in the summer. $ 10 for locals, but women can put their name on a list, and it is free entry for the rest of the summer. Sorry guys, you still need to pay every time. However, the last time I came, a friend had rented a daybed, and it was free but there was a minimum of $ 200 in food and drinks. Well, a huge group of friends came out and did not have to pay entry because we all said we were there for the daybed under our friend’s name. And between the 20 of us, we definitely spent way more than the minimum requirement. Best of all, the food and drinks were delish! The pitchers of margaritas and mojitos were pretty potent. They did not skimp on the alcohol at all.
I also love that it is so kid friendly. There are these huge entrance sections with only 10 inches of water and is the perfect place for the little ones to just wade in and splash. The crowd is also a lot more laid back and chill than the strip resort pools. There are also a ton of families. But, my favorite perk is the fact that it is not a long hike to get to the pool from the parking structure.
The servers are super friendly and we rarely waited to get anyone’s attention. And if you are a guest of the hotel, definitely make time to relax poolside, soak in the vegas rays, and enjoy a cocktail.

Cisco Live 2011 customer appreciation concert featured two bands I actually like — OK Go and Train. Just imagine thousands of geeky middle-​aged white men in blinking sequined hats by a huge pool at a rock concert. It was a sight to see for sure. I’ve never been to a concert and gotten this close to the performers. Somehow I always knew OK Go was a great live band and they showed it with well-​meaning nerd jokes to boot.
Between bands, there was a Cirque du Soleil-​esque show in the middle of the huge pool that got everybody’s attention. Minus the thundering soundtrack, shimmering laser lights, and skillful acrobatics, I think it was more the barely-​clad teenagers’ tasteful pole dancing that attracted all the eyeballs. It is Las Vegas after all.
Then Train began their set. They rolled through the hits like «Meet Virginia,» «Calling All Angels,» and «Hey Soul Sister» but really geared up for «She’s On Fire» with an all-​girl chorus from the crowd. Did I mention there was free alcohol at this event? The girls rocked it out though. Train’s signature song «Save Me San Francisco» rang true at an event sponsored by a company based out of and named for the Southern California town. Then Train threw down a red-​hot medley of Led Zeppelin’s «Ramble On» and Lou Reed’s «Walk on the Wild Side» which was unexpected and truly spectacular. I’ll never forget it.
