Lounge in Luxury at the Bellagio Pools
Spending time at the pool is one of the most popular things to do in Las Vegas during the daytime, so choosing a hotel with a great pool area is important!
I visit Las Vegas quite often and have experienced more than my fair share of resort pools. The Bellagio pool remains a favorite for a variety of reasons, which I will share here to help you plan your visit, as well!
The pool deck at the Bellagio Resort & Casino in Las Vegas is opulent and relaxing, but also offers plenty of space to move around and you won’t feel out of place bringing kids.
There are five pools plus four whirlpools in a lushly landscaped, Italian garden setting.
Many other Las Vegas pools have a party atmosphere – which is great if that’s your thing! But if you are looking for a more relaxed setting, the Bellagio may be the perfect choice.
The Bellagio Las Vegas pool offers a serene, al fresco experience, with fountains, statues, lush landscaping, citrus trees, and tiled pathways that will make you feel like you’re in a beautiful Mediterranean village.
I also love that the Bellagio pools have a misting system that keeps the area cool, especially on those hot summer Vegas afternoons!
The elegant outdoor setting truly keeps with Bellagio Resort & Casino’s overarching theme of European elegance, which starts with the resort’s most famous feature – the iconic Bellagio Fountain Show.
Despite its refined atmosphere, there are always plenty of kids romping in the big pools, and it is never an issue. Somehow, it all works.
More Things to Know About the Bellagio Pool
Here are the answers to some commonly asked questions about enjoying the Bellagio pools on your Las Vegas getaway.
Is the pool free at the Bellagio?
Use of the pools at the Bellagio Las Vegas is free for hotel guests. That is to say – it is included in the hotel’s resort fee.
Is the Bellagio pool heated?
If you are visiting Las Vegas during the winter months, fear not! Although the air can get pretty crispy, Bellagio keeps their pool heated to around 80 degrees year round so you can always enjoy the resort’s amazing pool area.
How many pools are at the Bellagio?
The Bellagio hotel pool area features two lap pools (one is Olympic size) plus three smaller pools.
The smaller fountain pools tend to have more adults just relaxing in the water, so there are definitely places people can go if they don’t want to be bothered by kids.
How Do You Get to the Bellagio pools?
The Bellagio pool deck is easy to access if you are staying at the hotel. From the main tower elevators, make a right and head down the hall to the pool. I love that you don’t have to cross the casino on the way outside the way you have to at many other Vegas hotels.
Is there a Jacuzzi by the pool?
In addition to the five Bellagio pools, there are four large whirlpools located on its expansive pool deck.
Are there slides or other amenities?
The Bellagio does not have water slides, a lazy river, wave pool, or kiddie area (check out the Mandalay Bay Las Vegas Pool if you are looking for those types of amenities!) but it is still very family-friendly in an upscale, comfortable way.
The Resorts World Las Vegas Pool is also a great option for families, as it has a dedicated Family Pool with fun water features among its expansive 5.5 acre pool deck!
