Location
Situated at the southern end of the Las Vegas Strip, Mandalay Bay is about 3950 Las Vegas Blvd S. It is a bit farther from the central Strip action, but the hotel offers a free tram connecting to nearby hotels like Excalibur and Luxor, making it easier to access other attractions. Nearby dining options within a few hundred meters include Bayside Buffet (34 m), Panda Express (311 m), and Subway (317 m). The location is praised for its quieter atmosphere compared to mid-Strip hotels, although some guests find the Uber pickup zone inconveniently far from the lobby and elevators. The resort’s private beach area and pools provide a more relaxed environment away from the busiest parts of Las Vegas Blvd.
Tips
- Book a room with a strip view for better scenery and more space.
- Use the Marriott Bonvoy membership to access priority check-in and restaurant benefits.

Cleanliness and Comfort
From the moment we entered our room, we were impressed by the standards of maintenance. The rooms are notably clean and well-appointed, featuring modern furnishings and a bright, airy aesthetic that complements the resort’s beach theme. The floor-to-ceiling windows provided a stunning view, and the linens felt fresh and high-quality, making for a very comfortable home base between excursions.
The Marriott Bonvoy Advantage
One of the highlights of our stay was the seamless integration with the Marriott Bonvoy rewards program. Because of this partnership, we were able to utilize the priority check-in line. Anyone who has visited Vegas during a peak weekend knows that the standard check-in lines can be daunting; bypassing the wait felt like a true VIP perk and allowed us to start our vacation significantly faster.
Connectivity and Location
While Mandalay Bay is a bit further down the Boulevard, the resort makes it incredibly easy to explore. The free tram to Excalibur was a lifesaver—it’s quick, runs frequently, and drops you right at a central hub where you can easily walk to New York-New York or Luxor. It essentially erases the "distance" factor, giving you the best of both worlds: a quiet, clean room and easy access to the heart of the action.
Whether you're there for the legendary wave pool or a convention, Mandalay Bay delivers a polished experience that feels both professional and fun.
The bathroom is big and spacious.
The lobby is nice
We tried the cafe and Japanese restaurant on the ground floor
The only thing is the uber zone is quite far from the hotel lobby and lifts.

Barbara, who looked after us, was very helpful, polite & attentive.
There’s a wide variety of food to choose from too. From salads, fish, sausages, pastas, meats, etc etc
The service is great too. From the people up front to the food preparers to the bus boys. Everyone has a great attitude and that makes for a great experience!
To the owner.... Clean up your store!!!
