content: Beautiful hotel, grounds, pools, decor... everything.  I havent stayed here as of yet but I have at The Wynn and I'm sure Encore being newer is just as top-notch as its predecessor. I did have a good friend that used to work here and she showed me around. I especially liked the pools including the european style pools. Yes, guests can go topless. No, it's not like going to the Playboy Mansion and what you would expect hanging out at Hef's infamous grotto. It was the middle of summer and it was mostly older folks. I didnt hang around long enough to be traumatized. I was fine with the other pools. They are immaculate and service is great. \n\nSurrender is located inside Encore and is a great layout for a club that attracts some of the most well-known DJs from all over the world. It's a big club with a big a space that includes the pools of Encore Beach Club.\n\nTaxi line can be such a long wait here. Valet is efficient but their pick-up/drop-off area is so congested and unclear that during the height of summer, it can be such a mess. \n\nWill update my review once I've been an official guest here.
