Quench Your Thirst with New Pour-It-Yourself Libations
Forget vying for the bartender’s attention, self-service spirit dispensers offer a new, trendsetting way to keep the fun and drinks flowing all night long.
* Guests of New York-New York’s authentic Irish pub Nine Fine Irishmen now can enjoy pouring themselves pint after pint of Guinness or Harp at the new DraftMaster™ table. The best seats in the house offer an inventive “pull-your-own-pint” system that allows guests to run a tab and only pay for what they pour.

The DraftMaster™ table can be reserved and seats up to six guests, making it a great option for groups and special events.

Award-Winning Spas Offer Relaxation and Rejuvenation
To balance the non-stop action of the Las Vegas Strip are tranquil sanctuaries where guests can relax, refresh and unwind. Offering innovative treatments and top-quality amenities, our resorts’ spas take pampering to a whole new level – and the readers of SpaFinder magazine agree, recently recognizing Spa Bellagio, Spa Mandalay and MGM Grand Spa as three of the world’s Best Casino Hotel Spas. The magazine asked readers to vote for the best spas in 27 categories and this year’s Readers’ Choice Awards received more than 300,000 votes – the highest number ever received.
The award-winning spas feature complete menus of massage, facial and body treatments, including signature treatments specially designed to provide a truly memorable experience:
* A tropical escape awaits guests at Spa Mandalay. Among the lush treatments offered, the Coconut Crème Body Scrub provides total body refreshment. Using a blend of fresh coconut milk, natural oils and fine granules of sugar, the therapist gently brushes away dry skin, leaving only luxuriously soft and smooth skin.
* The Watsu® Massage is one of Spa Bellagio's globally inspired treatments, fusing traditional Zen Shiatsu stretching methods and modern aquatic massage to promote rejuvenation of body and mind. Throughout the treatment, warm water relaxes the muscles and supports the spine as guests alternate between moments of stillness and rhythmical flowing movements. Guests enjoy the gentle, yet deep stretching that occurs, thereby releasing tension and stress.
* Those in search of a supremely relaxing spa service look no further than The Dreaming Ritual at MGM Grand Spa. The renewing, tribally inspired service features indigenous healing elements derived from Australia and authentic aboriginal music. A soothing foot soak is followed by a body mask and exfoliation, scalp treatment and concludes with a unique Australian aboriginal massage. At the end of a soothing two hours, guests slip into a plush robe and enjoy hot tea in a private spa suite to help bring them back to the present.
