What if sunbathing could be taken beyond the supine absorption of vitamin D, beyond mere solar worship, into the realm of an outdoor club, where “hot” doesn’t just describe the desert’s unrelenting temperatures? Well it can – and does – at Bare, where the name alludes to European-style bathing…and so much more.

Separated from the mob-scene of the average pool on The Strip is Bare, an intimate setting complete with two pools, daybeds, cabanas, a VIP section… and an age requirement. Men and women 21 and over lounge in the sun, enjoy soul, acid jazz and house music spun by a DJ and add steam to the arid air, getting the party started early and often. This is sun worship as it was meant to be.

It’s the kind of innovative indulgence the Light Group pool operators has become famous for at its other hot spots, such as Light at Bellagio and JET and STACK at The Mirage. With their reputation for sophistication and elegance, management, not surprisingly, underscores even the European-style bathing offered at Bare. “You have that option,” says Managing Partner Liam Dwyer, “but there’s no pressure.”

“No pressure” is the theme of this haven, where palm trees tower above and dolphins chatter nearby. The sea creatures leap through the air, creating an exotic backdrop as cocktail servers deliver pitchers of sangria and mojitos to lounging patrons. European-style bottle service is also available.

Attendants are at the ready with cucumbers to soothe tired and sun-kissed eyes, chilled fruit on skewers, popsicles, mini smoothies, cool towels, and custom-made coolers full of beverages. Guests can settle into a floating chair or indulge in a pool-side massage. Here, the decadence that Las Vegas is known for doesn’t stop just because the sun is up.

Bare is open Thursday – Monday from 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. until April 29, when it will be open seven days a week. Music begins at 3 p.m. For additional information and daybed reservations, call 702-791-7442 or visit barepool.com.
