Las Vegas for Kids

When many people are considering a family vacation, they don't think of Las Vegas. Many people consider Las Vegas to be a good vacation spot for adults only. However, Las Vegas can also be a great vacation spot for families. Many of the newer as well as a few of the older resorts in Las Vegas offer a wide selection of recreation for the entire family.

One of the best family resorts in Las Vegas is the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. The resort offers beaches and a wave pool to keep kids and parents alike entertained. The pool is a large swimming hole that sends out a wave every ninety seconds. Encircling the beach is a river ride where you can float on the many floatation devices available for rent.

The resort also features the Beach Bar & Grill right near the pool that serves great burgers, sandwiches and salads. For nighttime dining, there is the option of the Raffles Caf , which is next to the casino floor and features a wide selection of food on the menu. However, for kids you may decide it is better to visit the Bay Side Buffet.

Mandalay Bay also features the Shark Reef, which is an aquarium that features very exotic sea creatures. The resort also features more than forty stores for those who prefer to shop.

For the parents there is the option of the spa. In addition, Mandalay Bay features very nice rooms that are five hundred square feet with floor-to-ceiling windows and large bathrooms.
