Picture this: The sun is shining, palm trees gently swaying overhead in the breeze. You’ve got a refreshing beverage in hand, a view of sparkling waters and the whole day before you. There’s nothing quite like a dreamy, relaxing day at the pool. Add a luxurious cabana to the mix and your pool day just became next level. Whether you’re checked in as a hotel guest or visiting our Five-Star resort for the day, here’s your guide to selecting and securing just the right Wynn or Encore cabana for your day in the sun during any season.
Pick Your Pool
The pool decks at Wynn Las Vegas include; Wynn and Encore resort pools open to all ages, Wynn Tower Suites pool exclusively for Wynn and Encore Tower Suite guests, Encore Beach Club with top-name DJs fueling the day party and two European pools (21+, topless optional). There are cabana selections available at all pools as well as other amenities like premium chairs with umbrellas, lily pads and daybeds.
Cabana Cliff Notes
There are three types of cabanas at Wynn and Encore: standard, premium and bungalow. "We’re proud to provide amenities in each cabana for our guests that go beyond the industry standard,” says Ashlie Vandever, Director of Pool and F&B Operations. “This ensures our guests enjoy a truly elevated experience that includes complimentary non-alcoholic beverages, a hand-selected fruit platter, a variety of gourmet snacks, WiFi, a private living area with a flat screen television, personalized host service, and special extras designed to make their cabana day unforgettable.“ As an extra perk, says Vandever, “Guests can also live-stream the same sports packages that we have on property–like what we’re showcasing at our Sportsbook for example–including live events in soccer, baseball, football and hockey.”
So if all Wynn and Encore cabanas are equipped with the same suite of exclusive amenities, what distinguishes the premium cabana from the standard cabana? “The difference,“ says Vandever, “is location. We offer second-story cabanas with panoramic views, poolside cabanas just steps away from the water, or options that range from tucked-away and private to perfectly placed in the center of the excitement. The choice of location is entirely based on guest preference. For ultimate privacy, we offer our bungalow style cabana. This exclusive bungalow has a separate gated entrance and a private jacuzzi”

Friends and Refreshments
Nothing quite says pool party like a cabana and each can accommodate six to eight of your favorite pool pals. The cabanas have dedicated servers who will assist you and your party throughout the day. While there is no minimum food and beverage spend as a cabana guest, there are definitely some must-try cocktail and food items. The cabana menus feature selections from two of the resort’s guest-favorite restaurants, Jardin and Terrace Pointe Café. Dig into the crispy buttermilk chicken sandwich from Jardin with hickory smoked bacon, pepper Jack cheese, jalapeño dill pickles and buttermilk ranch slaw on a challah bun. Be sure to order a round of Wynn's signature poolside cocktails like the refreshing Watermelon Fresca, made with tequila, watermelon juice, lime, and agave.

Locking it Down
Now that you're completely cabana-savvy, it's time to pick your dates and reserve your own little piece of poolside paradise. Guests can go to the website to book online with 24-hour access allowing anytime reservations whenever inspiration strikes. A Wynn cabana team member will follow up to discuss specifics and answer any questions. Guests may reserve lily pads and daybeds online as well.
Cabanas are one of the most popular pool amenities at Wynn and Encore, especially on weekends and holidays, so it's advisable to reserve as much in advance as possible. However, the cabana team will do their best to accommodate all requests. Cabana inventory is typically more abundant Monday–Thursday, so if you want to start the party early or break up the week, you may have more cabana locations to choose from.
Think Outside the Box
The good news is, Las Vegas has an extended pool season well beyond the summer months; in fact, cabanas are available for reservation year-round. Why not get creative–who says you can't have a pumpkin-spiced fall kick-off celebration in September, a football party streaming your favorite play-off teams, or a “Galentines” get together in February with the besties? The options are limitless when pool season is perpetual at Wynn Las Vegas.
