I had a good experience here. The rooms were clean, the beds comfortable and the staff pleasant. Overall, it was a good stay. Lots of restaurants in the hotel to eat at too and a good food court for cheaper options. While you could still smell the smoke a little, it wasn’t nearly as overpowering as the rooms at the…

The short version
What visitors say about Mandalay Bay
Mandalay Bay sits at the far south end of the Strip, and nearly every review is about the hotel rather than the tables. The pool area carries it. Families like the sand beach and the lazy river, though a couple of guests found the wave pool produced barely a ripple. Rooms get good marks for cleanliness and comfort, and the food runs to sit down restaurants and a food court for cheaper meals.
Service draws most of the complaints. Guests describe hour long check in lines, long waits for keys and rooms, and elevators that were slow or out of action. The minibar catches people out: fridges arrive fully stocked, and several guests were billed after shifting items to fit their own food. Budget for resort and parking fees on top of the rate. Smoke on the casino floor bothers some visitors, while others found it faint.

Far end of the strip so you either have an unobstructed view of the airport or the Allegiant stadium. The rooms are newer and well kept, services top-notch specially if you have MGM status. Visit during in or around summertime while the
I had an exceptional stay at the Marriott at Mandalay Bay, and I want to give a special thank you to Maritza for providing truly outstanding customer service. From the moment we arrived, she greeted us with a genuine smile, a warm welcome, and a professional attitude that immediately made us feel valued.

First…. Our housekeeper, Elvira, was an absolute joy. She kept our room spotlessly clean. Very personable and works very hard with great customer service.
Maria was a staff member that helped us check in. AWESOME!!!! Very helpful and
Fast and friendly check-in. Accommodating us about two hours early.
Rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable.
Pool was well maintained and a nice cool temp.
Casino floor smelled like vanilla, and not like smoke.
Would stay here again.
I enjoy this place. The vibe is awesome and people are not of low class or anything. Plus they aren’t like snobs you know.
Critical reviews6
My wife booked a couple nights at Mandalay Bay for a family trip. The building is beautiful and the rooms were good. However, it was hard to find time to experience the resort when every trip on the elevator involved a +30 minute wait. On top of that, the wave pool (which is honestly a sorry excuse for a wave pool)…
This used to be our favorite hotel. It is still a lovely location, rooms or OK, it is fairly clean. Pool is fun when it is open. Restaurants are all pretty good. However, the service has gotten to be ridiculous. Our trip was interrupted
We chose to stay at the Mandalay Bay based off of reccomendations, as well as good reviews. It unfortunately turned out to be my least favorite stay in Vegas, all while celebrating my birthday this weekend. It took an hour to check in, and
Very disappointing. Read this beware before booking here.
I brought my daughter to Mandalay Bay to celebrate before the summer ended and she starts her final year of school, but the hotel experience itself was a major letdown.
While the property is nice, they seem determined to nickel-and-dim you at every corner.…
