One of Las Vegas’ hippest spots, Tangerine Lounge & Nightclub, features an indoor lounge, outdoor deck and burlesque revues. Nightlife abounds at Kahunaville – a tropical-themed restaurant and bar, Breeze Bar – a sophisticated lounge in the heart of the casino action – and the resort’s stylish lounge Mist.
