The river pool @ Monte Carlo isn't much, they have a 'wave' pool as well. Again, not the best when it comes to pools in Vegas.

I checked out MGM's pool area recently - four pools plus the lazy river, all nicely landscaped.

Michelle V:
Yes it is the Las Vegas Hilton. They have a variety of rooms available some which have been recently renovated.

The pool was fine for us, no river running through it but very, very big with plenty of seating.

Also we had one of our best meals at Casa Nicola.

I found some pretty good deals here. I get emails from them all the time, they have some promocode at checkout thing, the code is TripResSun, $50 off $400, it says only in Vegas but I think it works on all their stuff.

Good luck with finding a deal!

I am going to Vegas and I am always looking for the better deals. I am now booked into Caesars Palace at $110 (plus taxes) per night - midweek end June, early July. This has to be fairly good. If you want to do even better, book through www.whatahotel.com.
You should get $20 per day eating vouchers and an upgrade.

Good luck

MicheleVee, just want to chime in that, in my opinion, the Beatles Cirque de Soleil show is terrific!!(though some Cirque De Soleil fans have downplayed it a bit). I am not sure if someone made this point already but if you believe you need to buy the most expensive seats, I suggest you save the extra $$, the show is great no matter where you sit! Hint: When the show first starts, don't worry about curtains that seem to be blocking your view.
