Review of Bare at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas

If you are looking for some more adult oriented activities while staying at The Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, you may want to consider Bare.

Review of Bare At The Mirage Hotel and Casino - What is Bare?

Bare is a secluded pool area at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas that offers European style sunbathing. That's a fancy way of saying women can take off their tops. Thongs are permitted as well for women and men, however when I went, I did not see any men baring their bottoms. The cost to get in is $20 for men/$10 for women on weekdays and $40 for men/$20 for women on weekends. I am more than positive I saw free ladies passes to Bare at the hotel gift shop. Must be 21 or older to get in.

Review of Bare At The Mirage Hotel and Casino - What service can I expect from Bare?

If you choose to go to Bare, expect a relaxed poolside experience with VIP service. There are two small wading pools to dip in. Cabana boys and gals are very attentive to guests wanting drinks, food, and even cigarettes (yes you could smoke at Bare.) Lounge chairs have thick comfy cushions and every time I got up from my chair, a cabana boy straightened out and neatly folded my towels. For an extra fee, you can have a daybed or cabana. Daybed prices ranged from $250-$650 and cabana prices ranged from $550-$1500. Bare also provides complimentary snacks like fruits and mini smoothies and even chilled towels to cool you down. Personally, I didn't take advantage of these freebies. There is food service and the pricey menus have mostly burgers, salads, sandwiches and drinks by the pitcher. Be warned: the menu was NOT vegetarian friendly. There is a private bar for Bare customers and DJ service with music ranging from hip hop to classic rock.

Review of Bare At The Mirage Hotel and Casino - What types of people are at Bare?

I saw a wide range of people at Bare from college kids to couples in their 30's, 40's, 50's, and even older. And yes, some of those middle aged and elderly women did go topless. There were a few stray single men around Bare and if they were there for looking at the ladies, they did so very inconspicuously. Between the hunky cabana boys and security guards, I doubt any shenanigans would be tolerated.

Review of Bare At The Mirage Hotel and Casino - The overall experience?

I think if you are not prudish and don't mind the entrance fee, Bare at The Mirage Hotel and Casino is something for you to experience. I liked being in the company of mature adults at a very uncrowded private pool area. What I didn't like was attitude my boyfriend and I got because we didn't have our IDs with us. I understand checking ID, but we are 38 and 46 years old and not that young looking! There should be signs outside Bare telling you to have ID before you get in. And if you are wondering if I practiced 'European style sunbathing'.......ahem, I'm not telling!
