is there a reason you’re going to Vegas instead of someplace nicer? I mean you could rent any number of gorgeous air bnb mansions with a pool for that much.

Yes, but we’re going there for a concert to see The Weeknd. We have the Diamond VIP Lounge ticket package and four seats near the main stage. Our DD is in love with this guy and all his songs.

Interesting flex. You could've just left it at we are there to see a concert. Nobody cares about your VIP lounge and floor seats.

We were in Vegas last 4th of July weekend for shows. It was oppressively hot and the pool was miserable. Even with a cabana with AC, I can’t imagine you will want to be there all day or even a half day. TBH I’d focus on finding fun indoor activities and skip the whole cabana idea all together.

A plunge pool in Vegas in July will most likely be 90+ so not as refreshing as you think. Any shallow pool is going to be hot.

I've been to a few pools with cabanas like that but I wouldn't go just with the family. It's basically just your hotel room right next to the pool.

Not refreshing. In the Middle East, instead of heated pools, they have cooled pools. Wonder if this would ever be needed in Vegas?

Either way, cabana sounds pretty excessive. My kids last at the pool for about two hours. Not that I would rent a cabana (or could afford one), but it would be a waste for us. Also, on top of the $3,000 cost, I’m sure a fat service fee is thrown onto the bill and then there’s gratuity, but if you can drop 3k for a day at the pool, this probably isn’t a concern.

How do you feel about your kids seeing butt cheeks and major cleavage?

I love me a shellfish tower, but I don't think that is going to push them anywhere near that food/drink min.

Who doesn't love a shellfish tower in the Vegas heat next to the pool!

Well ... there's ice. A lot of it. Iced stuff is nice in the heat.

This is not bad reasoning. I support you getting the cabana under these circumstances. Without copious amounts of liquor, you are going to eat some of that food/drink minimum. Just accept that.

Wait, didn't that guy just say he isn't "The Weeknd" anymore?

I love summer and water of any kind and always discounted the "it's SO HOT" naysayers. Until we went to Arizona last summer. Even with shade and buckets of ice water, the pool water is like bath temperature and I just could not stand the heat. I had to flee back to the boring (but beautiful) hotel room to cool off. For the same money, take a private helicopter tour with touchdown in the Grand Canyon. Or check out the best seats for a great show (check out the Sphere or Colosseum). Have a family outing to a suite at Chase Field (covered ballpark).

Good chance no one will be at the pool because it's so hot. I vote for the private helicopter tour w/ touchdown. We used Maverick.

It goes without saying that we’re flying business class. Nonstop IAD-LAS on a Boeing 777 – lie-flat seats, of course. Plus we have reserved seats for the 4th of July fireworks at the Eiffel Tower restaurant and we’re staying in multiple Penthouse Suites at the Venetian. Not sure what the big deal is or why this is perceived as some sort of flex. Isn’t all this par for the course for DCUM?

Then why are you spending a day in basically a hotel room/cabana with a door to the pool with water temps over 80 degrees. Surely you can come up with a better activity. No seafood tower could be worth it.

Old business class lie flats. They don’t call them “coffin class” for nothing. You’d be better off on a newer narrowbody plane in first.
