So this is what paradise is supposed to look like. Guests at Luxor can relax at one of Vegas' most comfortable—and visually striking—pool scenes. An oasis in every sense of the word, the five-acre pool area at Luxor features four large swimming pools, four whirlpools, an array of palm trees, and the iconic black Luxor pyramid gleaming on the horizon.

Located on the casino level adjacent to Luxor Theater and open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day of the year, the pools at Luxor gives guests everything they need for a day of fun and sun—starting with complimentary towels and lounge chairs and personal poolside beverage service. Turn up the heat and rent a cabana for a day—these babies can accommodate a party of up to four and include top-shelf amenities like a refrigerator stocked with goodies, cushioned lounge chairs for chilling, a dining table and chairs, an invigorating air-cooling mist system, a 37-inch flat-screen television, and an in-house telephone so you can call everyone you know and tell them how cool you are.

VIPs are treated like the rock stars they are here as well; the pool staff will make special guests feel like they're in an exclusive paradise-within-paradise with their impeccable services. The waitstaff hand-delivers treats throughout the day—frozen Margarita popsicle, anyone?—along with pampering touches such as chilled fruit for snacking, cooling mist applications and iced aromatherapy towels to renew and refresh. Even poolside spa treatments are available, so you won't even need to get up to lie down and let your muscles melt away.
