I'm planning 1 day in Atlantic City and was thinking of staying a the Water Club. Has anyone been there? I"m really looking to spend a couple hours on the beach and then head out to dinner/gambling. Any recommendations???

We didn't stay at the Water Club but at the Borgata in the same complex. It was very nice but neither is on the beach.

Does it have a nice pool area? We might end up just going out to dinner and some gambling. Any restaurant recommendatiosn?

We had a great meal at Fornelletto in the Borgata. I don't know anything about the pool area, sorry. I would recommend walking along the boardwalk. Caeser's has some very nice shopping and restaurants. I've heard that Buddakan is very good. You can park for free there and walk around.

Water Club is nice, not a lot different from regular rooms at Borgata, just quieter, a little more plush, plus you do get to use the pool, the showers in the water club are great, i think it had 5 shower heads. Pools and pool area is nice, both outside and indoors pools, pool deck has a lot of chairs, feels a little crowded. Drinks at pool sort of pricey. Lots of restaurant choices at Borgata.
