VENUS POOL CLUB @ CAESARS PALACE

Tucked within the sprawling Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis at Caesars Palace, somewhere behind a screen of palms and olive trees, you’ll find Venus Pool Club. This secluded tropical paradise caters specifically to adults 21 and older with a sophisticated retreat where European-style sunbathing is allowed except during special events.

The 10,000 square foot space is large enough to allow guests to feel like they have some personal space yet intimate enough that the attentive staff can cater to the clients with specialized services designed to indulge the senses.

Fourteen luxury cabanas offer personal bars, flat-screen TVs and comfortable couch seating in a shaded area. Day beds, couches and lounge chairs provide additional seating options for soaking up the sun in comfort. Icy cold towels, frozen fruit and personal misting from a chilled bottle of Evian every hour are just some of the personal services in store for guests when they lounge around at Venus Pool Club. For an additional fee, a personal suntan assistant from Qua Baths & Spa will make sure your suntan lotion it applied in all the right places and evenly so you won’t burn.

The air-conditioned bar offers relief from the summer heat and guests can watch the game of the day on the flat screen TVs. The poolside dining menu offers a variety of light dishes, including homemade pizza, burgers fresh from the grill, a selection of sushi and salads made to order with the freshest produce. Signature cocktails include the Venus Mojito, the Julio Caesar Margarita, and Cleopatra’s Kiss.

If you get a sudden urge to gamble, swim-up blackjack is available in the Fortuna Pool, also located within the Garden of the Gods Complex. This pool also features a dedicated bar serving margaritas, mojitos and light snacks. The Temple, Neptune and Apollo pools complete the property’s complex of public pools. Lounge in the sun or take a dip surrounded by majestic Romanesque columns and stunning reproductions of classic sculptures.

Regardless of what kind of poolside experience you crave, Caesars Palace’s Garden of the Gods has something to suit your sunbathing and poolside party needs. Venus Pool Club is a great alternative for sunbathers who are looking for a more refined atmosphere and smaller crowds than the larger pool clubs elsewhere on the Strip.
