The superb rooftop pool at The Joule hotel in Dallas
Mandalay Bay
While Las Vegas's popular, glitzy pool parties have inspired some new aquatic innovations on The Strip, the Mandalay Bay remains the ultimate desert oasis for a cool, refreshing plunge. The fantastic 11-acre pool area combines a lazy river, several lagoons, and an extensive beach (with 2,700 tons of sand, undertow, and 6-foot swells for hanging ten). Luxurious private cabanas, the stylish 21-and-over Moorea Beach Club, and a three-story, climate-controlled beachside casino complete this poolside paradise. www.mandalaybay.com
