Chances are you already know the name, but what you may not have heard about the iconic Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas is the celebrated pool is undergoing a $20 million transformation of its GO Pool.

The new GO Pool complex covers almost 1.5 acres, with five separate temperature-controlled pools, 33 stylishly furnished V.I.P. cabanas, cool-deck surfacing, night lighting, a state-of-the-art sound system and a variety of experiences. At the main pool, guests have access to a swim-up, canopied bar with in-water seating for 30 people, a 50-foot rain curtain waterfall and a grotto pool that pours into the main pool.

DJs keep things lively seven days a week, and guests can maximize the relaxation component with in-water couches, daybeds and cabana rentals. Food and beverage services include cooling favorites such as frozen daquiris and signature mojitos.

Located in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip, the hotel’s GO Pool offers complimentary general admission on a first-come, first-serve basis to hotel and non-hotel guests ages 21 and up.

“For decades, the famous GO Pool has been a destination favorite during pool season, and we recognize our guests’ loyalty to the brand,” said Dan Walsh, SVP and general manager, Flamingo Las Vegas. “This project is not a renovation; it’s a completely different pool complex that was constructed from the ground up. The team has worked tirelessly for months to develop a new GO Pool that honors the rich history of the Flamingo with a stylish and modern aesthetic inspired by the resort’s origins. We look forward to offering an elevated pool experience and exceptional VIP service to our guests.”

Recharge with a Hollywood-Ready Spa Day at L’Ermitage Beverly Hills

While cooler and milder weather in Los Angeles means a pleasanter travel experience (particularly for a Floridian accustomed to humid summer heat), the drier weather also often means lingering and visual effects on the skin, something I began to feel the moment I stepped off my plane in the City of Angels. Low humidity and winter weather might be great for my hair, but my skin was tired and dry and eager for some much- needed nourishment and hydration.
