LAS VEGAS, June 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- It's going to be more than 100 degrees Fahrenheit this summer in Las Vegas (as usual), but rather than an air-conditioned sanctuary, a splash in a cool pool is the best way to beat the heat. From child-free escapes and beachside betting to the ultimate daylife party and family-friendly fun, MGM Resorts offers pool environments that appeal to all types of sun-seekers. Here are the top five pool experiences to dive into this season:

Child-Free Escape
There's no need to worry about noisy kids running and splashing around at Cypress Pool at Bellagio. Instead, a luxurious, Cypress tree-enclosed escape from reality awaits. This adult-only haven provides personalized services from a poolside massage to a personal host and complimentary amenities such as customized chaise lounge chairs and daybeds, chilled towels and Evian misters – pampering at its best.
Ultimate Pool Party
Calvin Harris, Steve Aoki, Tiësto…there's always a world-renowned DJ spinning at WET Republic at MGM Grand. Known as the king of daylife, this is the ultimate pool for sun-seekers to cool off in while the party heats up. Want to lounge like a rockstar? Try one of the six new VIP Bungalows with three private plunge pools at The Strip's perennial favorite dayclub.
Beachside Bash
If you're looking for a pool that can please all ages, Mandalay Bay Beach is your destination. There are endless activities to choose from – body surf in the 1.6-million-gallon wave pool, float down the lazy river, lounge on the 2,700 tons of real California sand or try your luck at the indoor Beachside Casino. If you're at the Beach on a Summer Beach Concert Series night, you can even catch live performances by famous artists such as Gavin DeGraw and Counting Crows.
European Seclusion
Are you ready to lose your inhibitions (and your tan lines)? If so, then BARE Pool Lounge at The Mirage is just for you. You'll be able to experience European-style sunbathing without leaving the comfort of Las Vegas. Don't forget to stay hydrated with specialty cocktails including frozen drinks and a variety of mojitos. If you're still too hot, slip into one of the VIP dipping pools to refresh.
Tropical Paradise
It's easy to imagine you're in a lagoon in the middle of the jungle at the Pool at The Mirage. Lions and tigers roar from behind the foliage in Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and cascading waterfalls offer a serene escape from the heat. Need a break from the sun? Make sure to claim a spot in the shade of the overhanging palm trees or in a private cabana for a cool pool experience.
