Looking for some recommendations on where to stay during a 3-night trip this July. My wife and I will be taking a getaway trip away from the kids for a few days and we're looking for someplace with a great pool - preferably with a swim-up bar. We're drinkers but are NOT into the "South Beach Club" feel of most dayclubs - and nightclubs for that matter. We're much more comfortable relaxing out by the pool with beers in our hands and perhaps playing a couple games of water volleyball during the day and then going to a bar atmosphere at night with pool tables/bowling/darts/etc. Don't really care for places that are so loud its impossible to have a conversation. If forced to look into club atmospheres we'd want a rock/punk atmosphere and not house/hip-hop. Looking for a good hotel (i.e., not cheap) and preferably on the Strip, but open-minded. We've heard good things about a couple places (i.e., the Wynn & Cosmopolitan), but we're worried their too "chic" for our liking. We've also heard good things about Bellagio & Paris LV, but are worried that their a little to laid back and upscale for us. Any thoughts/recommendations from the Vegas experts out there?
