We checked into the Mandalay Bay on the morning of my boyfriend's birthday - Aug. 1. The check-in was incredibly fast with almost no lines - one of the advantages of a non-weekend stay. As is often the case at 9am, a clean non-smoking King room wasn't yet available. We said we'd be OK with putting our things into a room and checking back later. Although we were willing to wait until the afternoon for our room, upon learning it was my boyfriend's b'day we were upgraded to a beautiful 1BR suite overlooking the pools and we were able to check in immediately. The suite was beautiful with wonderful amenities including a jacuzzi tub and wet bar! We spent the day at the Moorea Beach Club (the adults only pool area) which was beautiful and tranquil - a nice alternative to the madness of the main pools. European sunbathing allowed and NO children. Area also has it's own bar and food service. Service was OK - not great in this area - surprising considering that there were relatively few people. In the evening we enjoyed dinner at rumjungle. Food was much better than expected. A few rounds of blackjack, cocktails and we called it an evening. Breakfast at the Raffles Cafe was a disappointment the next morning. Service was SLOW even though the restaurant was empty. When it finally arrived, the food was lukewarm and my boyfriend's order was incorrect. To top it off, it was expensive. Overall we had a really nice stay, with the only letdowns being in the food service area at both the pools and at the cafe.

Room was your typical 2 queen beds, desk and chair. We didnt have a great view, but didnt expect one. However, being a woman..I loved the bathroom. Big sucken tub with seperate glass shower with seperate toilet and a door for privacy. Another door can close off the whole bathroom. Beautiful double sink vanity and all of the basic toiletries provided. Great restaurants and food. Wonderful spa but a bit pricey. Nice Wave pool and Lazy river. VIVA LAS VEGAS BABY!

I'll keep this short and not so sweet....
This place is TOO CROWDED!!! We were there during the week (not on the weekend), and could not get chairs at the pool, had to wait in line for elevators, restaurants, and check in/outs. Pool chairs at the wave pool/beach (MB's most popular attraction) are arranged so tightly that the pool area resembles a can of sardines. There's 6 inches between the chairs, and there are hundreds of them. Also the temperature of the casino was so cold that we wished we had brought sweaters (not likely when it's 105 outside...). Our room was very nice - it had sewing kits and bath salts, but a coffee maker would have been much more appreciated. A pot of room service coffee was about $15. Everything is expensive here - gambling ($15 bet minimums?), food ($75 entrees??), shops ($175 blue jeans???). $200 per night and they make you RENT/BUY an inner tube or water raft at the pool!
You really need to be pretty well off to enjoy Mandalay Bay - it is definitely for the well-to-do crowd. And I do mean CROWD.....

9/13 found this review helpful

I recently stayed at the Mandalay Bay from July 24th to the 27th. The hotel itself was just beautiful. We stayed on the 34th floor which is the top floor. For some odd reason they gave us a handicapped room which took away the beauty of the bathroom, but we had beautiful view of the pool area. We did not have too much trouble with the elevator as other people posted. The elevator we took serviced floors 17 thru 34. The only thing I do recommend with the rooms is a COFFEEMAKER. For such a fancy hotel I can't believe they do not have the convenience of a coffeemaker in the room. In the morning had to go all the way to the casino level and go to a Starbucks which cost $4.00 a cup, what a rip-off.

The pool area was beautiful, they did have enough towels for everyone. One problem I did encounter was not enough shaded area and if you got out to the pool after 11:00 AM good luck finding a chair. To go on the lazy river you had to either buy a tube for $9.99 or rent one for $20. I think that would have been a nice convenience if they just let people borrow them just for the day, like they do at water parks.

“good hotel shame about the price and a few other anoying things”

7/11 found this review helpful

stayed at the mandalay bay for a week and it cost me about a £1000 pounds or bout $1700 bit more then i really wanted to pay there are many things to enjoy about the hotel but i feel that it is more geared up for high rollers the waitress at the tables often asked if I would like a drink and sometimes were never to be seen again now I know some of the following points might seem petty but for the price you just expect better the staff often seem unintrested in your quesions and are often unwilling to help the beds were obviously designed to last about 20 years as they are very hard the carpets down the corridors looked like they were laid by a blind man as i nearly triped and fell over as they are raised in the middle. the que for the elervators gets a bit tedius as its every time even at 4 in the morning, the slots dont pay out that much and to be told by the valet parking that the valet parking is full as there was a rock concert on that evening was the final straw surley the paying guests should take priority generaly a gud hotel but i wish id have stayed at the mgm grand
