The pool at the Green Valley Ranch Resort is also a winner. It has foliage, a sandy beach, and gambling in the water. Because of its distance from the Strip, it doesn’t get as much business.
Perhaps the best pool to get wet at, but not swim in is the Mirage Dolphin pool. They have several dolphins you can see and they are working at breeding some more. You can come down and toss a ball to the dolphin and the will bring it back as well as give you a splash just to get you wet. Playing with a dolphin is enough to make anyone’s day.
