Mandalay Bay is a lush, tropical resort. Intricately carved stone statues silently welcome guests to the Valley of the Waterfalls where spectacular fire pots, cascading waterfalls, mythical architecture and verdant landscaping set the stage for discoveries of treasures yet to come. The feeling of a vibrant paradise continues in the hotel’s lobby where visitors find a 14-foot-high, salt-water aquarium reminiscent of the beautiful coral reefs of the South Pacific.
