Mandalay Bay Las Vegas: Map, Layout, Towers, and Self-Parking

8 min read|Last updated: May 2026

Quick summary: Mandalay Bay is three hotels stacked into one campus — the 43-story Mandalay Bay tower, the 43-story W Las Vegas all-suite tower (rebranded from Delano in December 2024), and the Four Seasons Las Vegas on floors 35 through 39 of the main tower — all sharing one casino, one convention center, and one beach-style pool. Self-parking is the six-story garage off Frank Sinatra Drive on the west side. The free tram to Luxor and Excalibur boards on the north end. The Mandalay Place skybridge to Luxor is the climate-controlled walking option.

Mandalay Bay opened on March 2, 1999 as the south anchor of the Strip and has been quietly absorbing new buildings ever since. THEhotel arrived in 2003 with 1,117 suites; the Four Seasons moved into the top five floors of the main tower with its own separate entrance; the Convention Center expanded; W Hotels rebranded the all-suite tower in late 2024. The result is a property that looks straightforward from the outside — one big golden building — but is a small district. Knowing which hotel your reservation is in, which tower entrance to use, and where self-parking lets you out is what separates a smooth arrival from a 20-minute detour.

Most navigation friction at Mandalay Bay is geographic, not architectural. The Casino Level is mostly one floor; the corridors are wide and the signage is decent. The challenge is that the property runs nearly a quarter mile from the south Strip-side porte cochere all the way to the Mandalay Place skybridge on the north. Get the orientation right and the rest is straightforward. Here's how it's organized.

How Mandalay Bay Is Laid Out

Mandalay Bay reads as a single property from the outside, but inside it's organized around three distinct hotels and a long north-south spine. Get the spine right and everything else falls into place.

The main Mandalay Bay tower (south end). The 43-story golden Y-shaped tower visible from the Strip. About 3,200 standard hotel rooms reached through the main hotel lobby on the Casino Level. Pool rooms face north over the Beach pool deck; Strip-side rooms face east over Las Vegas Boulevard and the airport beyond.

W Las Vegas (north end, formerly Delano). A separate 43-story all-suite tower attached to the north side of the main building. About 1,117 suites. Its own ground-floor entrance and lobby off the Strip side, its own pool, its own restaurants. There is no casino floor inside W Las Vegas itself; W guests walk a connecting corridor to the Mandalay Bay gaming floor when they want to gamble, eat at a Mandalay Bay restaurant, or board the tram.

Four Seasons Las Vegas (floors 35–39 of the main tower). About 424 rooms occupying the top five floors of the main Mandalay Bay tower as a hotel-within-a-hotel. The Four Seasons has its own separate ground-level entrance and lobby on the south end of the building, with private elevators that bypass the casino entirely. Once inside the Four Seasons footprint, you would not know Mandalay Bay's casino is downstairs unless you went looking for it.

Casino Level — the central public floor. A roughly 148,000-square-foot gaming floor sits in the middle of the main Mandalay Bay tower. The race and sports book, Center Bar, the main hotel lobby and front desk, the porte cochere, several restaurants, and the connecting corridors to W Las Vegas, the convention center, the Mandalay Place skybridge, the pool, the convention center, and Shark Reef all branch off this level. If you're going from anywhere to anywhere on property, you're probably crossing the Casino Level.

Convention Center (north side). Opened in 2003 and expanded in 2021, this is one of the largest convention centers in the U.S. and drives a significant share of Mandalay Bay's overall foot traffic. Convention attendees enter from a dedicated north entrance off the parking-garage skybridge or directly from the Casino Level. Worth knowing even if you're not at a convention — the convention center exits dump foot traffic onto the Casino Level on busy days.

Mandalay Bay Beach (north-central, outdoor). An 11-acre pool deck with 2,700 tons of imported sand, a wave pool, a lazy river, and a concert stage. Reached through a dedicated pool corridor signed from the Casino Level. Open seasonally; check at the front desk for current hours.

Shark Reef Aquarium (south end, Casino Level). A 1.3-million-gallon aquarium — the largest on the Strip — with sharks, rays, sea turtles, and a walk-through acrylic tunnel. Entrance is past the Mandalay Bay Beach corridor toward the south side of the property.

Mandalay Place (north end → Luxor). A 310-foot enclosed skybridge that links Mandalay Bay's north end directly to Luxor. About 40 shops and restaurants line the corridor, including retailers you don't see elsewhere on the Strip. This is the indoor walking route to Luxor and, by extension, Excalibur. Open 24 hours.

North end — the connectors. Almost everything that leaves Mandalay Bay is on the north end. The free tram station to Luxor and Excalibur, the Mandalay Place skybridge to Luxor, the connecting corridor to W Las Vegas, the convention center entrance, and the parking garage skybridge all cluster on the north side. Heading north on the Casino Level means heading out.

The Three Towers: Mandalay Bay, W Las Vegas, and Four Seasons

The three hotels look unified from the Strip, but they operate as three separate properties with three separate front-desk experiences and three separate price points. Pick the wrong tower at booking and you'll spend your stay walking through the others to reach yours.

Mandalay Bay tower. The main 43-story Y-shaped hotel that opened in 1999. Standard rooms and suites, all reached through the central hotel lobby on the Casino Level via the main elevator banks. The most common reservation type and the easiest to find on arrival. If your room number is listed without a brand qualifier, you're in this tower.

W Las Vegas (formerly Delano, formerly THEhotel). The all-suite 43-story tower attached on the north side. Opened December 17, 2003 as THEhotel at Mandalay Bay, rebranded as Delano on September 1, 2014, and rebranded again as W Las Vegas on December 18, 2024. About 1,117 suites with separate W-branded amenities, restaurants like Caracol, and a separate pool deck. W Las Vegas does not have a casino; you'll walk through a connecting corridor to reach Mandalay Bay's gaming floor. The legacy “Delano” name still appears in older signage, search results, and rideshare destination lists; the building is the same one, just with new branding.

Four Seasons Las Vegas. A hotel-within-a-hotel occupying floors 35 through 39 of the Mandalay Bay tower. About 424 rooms with separate Four Seasons branding, a private south-side entrance and porte cochere, a dedicated lobby, and private elevator banks that go directly from the Four Seasons lobby to the Four Seasons floors without ever touching the Mandalay Bay casino floor. The casino is one elevator ride away if you want it; the Four Seasons experience is structured so you don't see it unless you're looking. The Four Seasons opened in 1999 alongside Mandalay Bay and was the first AAA Five Diamond property in Las Vegas.

Booking takeaway. The cheapest option is almost always the Mandalay Bay tower; the largest rooms are W Las Vegas; the highest service is Four Seasons. All three share the property's pool, convention center, restaurants, Mandalay Place, and tram, so amenity access is the same regardless of which front desk you check in at — the experience differs in the bedroom, the lobby, and how much casino noise you choose to encounter.

Self-Parking, Valet, and Rideshare

Mandalay Bay's parking situation is straightforward once you know where each option enters the property — and frustrating if you don't. Three pickup or drop-off zones sit at three different ends of the building.

Self-Parking

Where it is. Mandalay Bay self-parking is a six-story garage on the west side of the property, accessed off Frank Sinatra Drive (one block west of Las Vegas Boulevard). From the south, exit Tropicana Avenue to Las Vegas Boulevard, then turn west onto Hacienda Avenue and follow the signs. From the north, take Las Vegas Boulevard south to Hacienda and turn west.

How you enter the building from the garage. A covered, climate-controlled skybridge connects the garage to the Casino Level on the north side of the resort. You enter near the convention center corridor, with the tram station, the Mandalay Place skybridge to Luxor, and the connecting walkway to W Las Vegas all close by. From the parking-garage skybridge, the main casino floor is a 2-to-3-minute walk south; the Mandalay Bay tower elevators are about the same distance further on.

Cost. Self-parking is paid at Mandalay Bay for both hotel guests and the general public. Rates vary by day of week, length of stay, MGM Rewards status, and event schedule (concerts, conventions, and major fight nights all increase prices). Confirm current rates on the MGM Resorts site before you arrive. RV and oversized-vehicle parking is available at a separate lot; ask at the parking-garage entrance booth for routing.

If the garage is full. The Excalibur self-parking garage is two stops north on the free tram and often has lower rates and more availability during major events. Park at Excalibur, ride the tram south, and you'll arrive at the same Mandalay Bay tram station as if you'd parked here.

Valet

Valet uses the main porte cochere on the east (Las Vegas Boulevard) side of the property. From the casino floor, the valet exit is the most direct path to the Strip. Valet is paid for both guests and the general public, with separate rates for self-parking. The Four Seasons has its own valet at the south-end Four Seasons porte cochere, used by Four Seasons guests; Mandalay Bay valet is the option for everyone else.

Rideshare

Uber and Lyft pick up at a dedicated rideshare zone — not at the main Las Vegas Boulevard porte cochere. The rideshare zone is on the north side of the property, off the convention center area, accessed through the same corridors that lead to the parking-garage skybridge. From the casino floor, follow the Rideshare signs north past the convention center entrance. Drop-offs typically use the main porte cochere on the Strip side.

For Four Seasons guests, rideshare drop-offs and pickups happen at the Four Seasons' private south porte cochere. Don't request a Four Seasons pickup from the Mandalay Bay rideshare zone; they're a several-minute walk apart.

Three hotels. One casino. Different rideshare zones.

Finding What You Need

Hotel Check-In

Mandalay Bay tower: the main hotel lobby and front desk are on the Casino Level, behind the porte cochere on the Las Vegas Boulevard side. A bank of standard elevators behind the lobby runs to all guest floors. W Las Vegas: a separate W lobby and front desk on the north end of the property, off its own porte cochere. Four Seasons: the Four Seasons lobby is on the south side with its own porte cochere; private elevators take you straight to floors 35–39 without crossing the casino. Confirm which hotel your reservation is under before you arrive — otherwise you may end up checking in at the wrong front desk and walking the property.

Restaurants

Mandalay Bay's restaurants spread across the Casino Level, the convention-center corridor, and the W Las Vegas tower. Casino-Level options include the Citizens Kitchen sports bar, the Border Grill on the Beach corridor, Libertine Social on the north end, Kumi for Japanese-Korean, and the Race & Sports Book bar. The convention-center corridor adds quick-service grab-and-go counters for breakfast and lunch. W Las Vegas has Caracol on the all-suite tower side. Four Seasons has its own restaurants accessible only from the Four Seasons lobby (Charlie Palmer Steak, Veranda for breakfast). Always confirm both the tower and the level before walking, especially for Four Seasons reservations — the Four Seasons restaurants are not reachable from the Mandalay Bay casino floor without doubling back to the Four Seasons lobby.

Mandalay Bay Beach (Pool)

The 11-acre pool deck behind the main tower is the centerpiece pool experience: 2,700 tons of imported sand, a 1.6-million-gallon wave pool that produces six-foot waves, a lazy river, and the Mandalay Bay Beach concert stage that hosts summer shows. Access is through the dedicated pool corridor signed from the Casino Level on the north side of the casino floor. Pool hours are seasonal — check at the front desk on arrival. Day-pass access for non-guests is available when capacity allows.

Shark Reef Aquarium

The Strip's largest aquarium — 1.3 million gallons across multiple exhibit halls including a walk-through acrylic tunnel where sharks and rays swim overhead. Entrance is at the south end of the Casino Level, past the Mandalay Bay Beach corridor. Plan a 5-minute walk from the casino floor to the box office. Tickets are timed; book online or at the kiosk to skip the longest lines on weekends. Allow 60 to 90 minutes inside.

Shows and Entertainment

Mandalay Bay houses two major venues. Michelob Ultra Arena (formerly Mandalay Bay Events Center) is a 12,000-seat arena that hosts concerts, championship boxing, and UFC fights; entrance is at the north end of the property near the convention center. House of Blues is a 1,800-capacity two-story music venue with a restaurant on the lower level; entrance is near the Mandalay Place skybridge on the north side of the casino floor. Carlos Santana's long-running residency wraps in May 2026, after which the room returns to a touring schedule. Michael Jackson ONE, the Cirque du Soleil production, plays in its own theater near the casino floor.

Convention Center

Most leisure visitors won't enter the convention center directly, but it's worth knowing it exists because conventions reshape foot traffic on the Casino Level when major shows are in town. The convention center entrance is on the north side of the property, with its own escalators down to the Casino Level corridors. If you're visiting during a large convention, expect the casino-floor corridors to be busy mid-morning and at lunch.

Restrooms

Casino-floor restrooms cluster near the race and sports book on the south side, near the main hotel lobby in the center, and near the convention-center corridor on the north side. Pool-area restrooms are inside the Mandalay Bay Beach corridor; Mandalay Place has its own restrooms along the skybridge. Restrooms in the W Las Vegas lobby and the Four Seasons lobby are reserved for guests of those hotels.

Exits and the Three Porte Cochères

Main Mandalay Bay porte cochère: on the east (Las Vegas Boulevard) side, behind the main hotel lobby. Used for valet, drop-offs, and arriving by Uber/Lyft. W Las Vegas porte cochère: on the north side off Las Vegas Boulevard, with its own valet for W guests. Four Seasons porte cochère: on the south side, with its own valet, drop-off, and pickup zones for Four Seasons guests. Parking-garage skybridge: on the west side, connecting to the Casino Level near the convention center on the north end. Mandalay Place skybridge: on the north side, opening into Luxor across the property line. Picking the wrong porte cochere can cost 10 minutes; checking the porte cochere your reservation lists before arrival saves it.

The Tram to Luxor and Excalibur

Mandalay Bay anchors the south end of a free tram that connects three south-Strip MGM Resorts properties: Mandalay Bay on the south end, Luxor in the middle, and Excalibur on the north end. The tram is free for everyone — you do not need to be a hotel guest.

Where the Mandalay Bay tram station is

On the north end of the property, near the convention center and just past the Mandalay Place skybridge entrance. From the Casino Level, follow signs for “Tram” or “Luxor and Excalibur” north past the front desk and the convention center entrance, then take the escalator or elevator up to the elevated tram platform. From the south Strip-side porte cochere, expect a several-minute indoor walk across the casino to reach the platform.

Tram routing — the two-track quirk

The tram runs on two parallel tracks. The western track is the local: Mandalay Bay, Luxor, Excalibur, Excalibur North. The eastern track is an express that connects only Mandalay Bay and Excalibur, skipping Luxor entirely. When both tracks run, all four stops are served. When only one track runs — common during off-peak hours — the train going from Mandalay Bay north can sometimes be the express, meaning it skips Luxor in that direction. Northbound from Mandalay Bay to Excalibur is reliable either way; if you're bound for Luxor specifically, walk the Mandalay Place skybridge instead and save the wait.

Tram hours

The tram operates approximately from late morning to late night, with frequencies of every few minutes during operating hours. Exact hours can shift seasonally and during property events — the bell desk at any of the three properties will have the current schedule. Plan walking the Mandalay Place skybridge as the late-night fallback when the tram has stopped running.

Full step-by-step directions to Luxor specifically are in the Mandalay Bay to Luxor walking guide.

The Mandalay Place Skybridge to Luxor

The Mandalay Place skybridge is the indoor walking option to Luxor and the climate-controlled fallback when the tram is closed or running express. The 310-foot enclosed corridor opened in October 2003 with about 41 retailers and restaurants; today it remains a destination in its own right with shops not found elsewhere on the Strip and a handful of sit-down restaurants. From Mandalay Bay's Casino Level, head north past the front desk and follow signs for Mandalay Place or Luxor. The walk is flat, climate-controlled, and takes about 5 to 7 minutes door-to-door. The corridor is level the entire way with no stairs, so it's scooter-, wheelchair-, and stroller-friendly. Open 24 hours.

Common Navigation Mistakes

Treating the three hotels as one. Mandalay Bay, W Las Vegas, and Four Seasons are three separate operations with three separate front desks, three separate porte cocheres, and three separate room-key systems. Confirm which hotel your reservation is under before arrival; pulling up to the wrong porte cochere with luggage means a long walk to the right one.

Searching for “Delano” on the property and getting confused. Delano was rebranded to W Las Vegas on December 18, 2024. Older signs, search results, and rideshare lists may still say Delano; the building hasn't moved, the rooms are unchanged, and the same connecting corridor links it to Mandalay Bay's casino floor. If your reservation is at “Delano,” head for the W Las Vegas lobby on the north end.

Defaulting to the main porte cochère for rideshare pickup. Uber and Lyft pickup is at the dedicated rideshare zone on the north side of the property, near the convention center area — not the main Las Vegas Boulevard porte cochere where valet runs. Walking to the wrong spot is the most common rideshare delay at Mandalay Bay.

Assuming Four Seasons restaurants are reachable from the casino floor. Charlie Palmer Steak and Veranda are accessible only through the Four Seasons lobby on the south side. From the casino floor you can't walk into them; you have to exit toward the Four Seasons porte cochere first, enter the Four Seasons lobby, and find them from there. Build the extra 5 minutes into your reservation timing.

Trusting the southbound tram to stop at Luxor. If you're heading from Mandalay Bay to Luxor specifically and only one tram is running, it may be the express that skips Luxor. Walk the Mandalay Place skybridge instead — same direction, no waiting, climate-controlled.

Getting to Nearby Casinos

To Luxor: Two indoor options. The Mandalay Place skybridge is the most reliable — about 5 to 7 minutes through Mandalay Place from the casino floor. The free tram is a 2-to-3-minute ride if running local, but with platform walking and waiting the total is comparable. Full directions are in the Mandalay Bay to Luxor walking guide.

To Excalibur: The free tram is the right tool here. Two stops north on the local track, about 7 minutes total. Or take the Mandalay Place skybridge through Luxor and the second indoor connector through to Excalibur — about 10 to 12 minutes walking, all indoors with moving sidewalks on the Luxor-to-Excalibur portion.

To MGM Grand: Tram up to Excalibur, then take the elevated pedestrian bridge over Tropicana Avenue and Las Vegas Boulevard to MGM Grand. Total time 15 to 20 minutes. Some bridges around the Tropicana intersection have been affected by demolition and construction near the former Tropicana site, so check signage on arrival. For more south-Strip walking distances, see our guide to walking the Las Vegas Strip.

To the central Strip (Aria, Bellagio, Cosmopolitan): The free tram doesn't run that far north. Your options are rideshare from the dedicated rideshare zone, the Las Vegas Monorail (nearest station: MGM Grand, reached via tram + walk), or the Strip sidewalk if you have time. For the full breakdown, see our guide to getting around Las Vegas.

Navigation Tips

North means out, south means in. The Strip-facing main porte cochere is on the east. The casino floor sits in the middle. Almost every connector that leaves Mandalay Bay — tram station, Mandalay Place to Luxor, parking-garage skybridge, W Las Vegas connector, convention center exits — is on the north end. Heading north on the Casino Level is the answer to most “how do I get out of here?” questions.

Match your booking to your activities. If you're here for the pool and restaurants, the main Mandalay Bay tower is closest to the Beach corridor and the casino floor. If you're here for a nightclub or convention with late nights, W Las Vegas suites are quieter and have a separate elevator core. If you're here for a quiet stay where the casino vibe is a feature you've opted out of, the Four Seasons is structurally separated from everything else on property.

Park at the garage and skip the casino on arrival. If your room is in the Mandalay Bay tower and you don't need to gamble or eat right away, the parking-garage skybridge drops you onto the Casino Level near the convention-center corridor — a shorter, quieter path to the elevators than coming through the main porte cochere on a busy night.

For Luxor, walk; for Excalibur, ride. The Mandalay Place skybridge is the better option for Luxor (no waiting, open 24 hours, retail you'd enjoy passing). The tram is the better option for Excalibur (two stops north, 7 minutes, no walk through two connectors). Picking the right tool for each direction saves cumulative time across a multi-day stay.

Confirm rideshare pickup before requesting. Mandalay Bay-side rideshare uses the dedicated north-side zone; Four Seasons-side rideshare uses the Four Seasons porte cochere on the south side. The two are about an 8-to-10-minute walk apart. Check which side your driver is being routed to before you start moving.

Facts in this guide (room counts, casino square footage, opening dates, the W Las Vegas rebrand timeline, Four Seasons floor placement, Mandalay Place size, Shark Reef aquarium volume, self-parking access, tram routing) are drawn from the Mandalay Bay and W Las Vegas Wikipedia entries, MGM Resorts public materials, the Four Seasons Las Vegas property descriptions, and on-the-ground reporting. Last verified: May 2026. Tram hours, rideshare pickup zones, and parking rates can change; confirm with the bell desk if you're relying on a late-night ride or planning around an event.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Mandalay Bay Las Vegas laid out?

Mandalay Bay is a single connected campus with three hotels sharing one casino. The 43-story Mandalay Bay tower holds the main hotel rooms. A second 43-story all-suite tower attached on the north side is W Las Vegas, rebranded from Delano in December 2024. The Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas occupies floors 35 through 39 of the main Mandalay Bay tower with its own separate entrance, lobby, and elevators. The Casino Level is the central public floor and connects all three hotels, the convention center, the Mandalay Bay Beach pool area, Shark Reef Aquarium, and the Mandalay Place skybridge to Luxor.

Where is self-parking at Mandalay Bay?

Mandalay Bay self-parking is a six-story garage west of the resort, accessed off Frank Sinatra Drive. The garage connects to the property by a covered walkway that drops you onto the Casino Level on the north side, near the convention center and the elevators to the Mandalay Bay tower. Self-parking is paid for hotel guests and the general public; rates vary by day of week and event schedule. Valet uses the main porte cochere on the Las Vegas Boulevard side.

Is W Las Vegas the same as Delano at Mandalay Bay?

Yes. W Las Vegas is the new name for what was previously Delano Las Vegas, which was previously THEhotel at Mandalay Bay. The 43-story all-suite tower attached to the north side of Mandalay Bay opened as THEhotel in December 2003, rebranded as Delano in 2014, and rebranded again as W Las Vegas on December 18, 2024 under MGM Resorts and Marriott Bonvoy. The building, the rooms, and the connection to the Mandalay Bay casino floor are unchanged from the Delano era.

What is the difference between Mandalay Bay, W Las Vegas, and Four Seasons?

The Mandalay Bay tower is the main 43-story hotel with about 3,200 standard rooms and direct access to the casino floor. W Las Vegas is a separate 43-story all-suite tower attached on the north end with about 1,100 suites; it has its own lobby and pool but no casino, so guests use the connecting walkway to reach the Mandalay Bay gaming floor. Four Seasons Las Vegas occupies floors 35 to 39 of the Mandalay Bay tower with about 420 rooms, a private ground-floor entrance and lobby on the south side, dedicated elevators, and no gaming inside the Four Seasons footprint at all.

Where is the Mandalay Bay tram station?

The Mandalay Bay tram station is on the north end of the property, near the convention center and the Mandalay Place skybridge. From the Casino Level, follow signs for Tram or Luxor and Excalibur, head past the convention center entrance, and take the escalator up to the elevated platform. The tram is free and connects Mandalay Bay, Luxor, and Excalibur on a two-track route. From the Mandalay Bay Strip-side entrance under the porte cochere, expect a several-minute indoor walk across the casino to reach the platform.

Where is the indoor walkway from Mandalay Bay to Luxor?

The indoor walkway from Mandalay Bay to Luxor runs through Mandalay Place, a 310-foot enclosed skybridge with about 40 retailers and restaurants. From the Casino Level, head north past the front desk and follow signs for Mandalay Place or Luxor. The walk is climate-controlled, flat, and takes about 5 to 7 minutes door to door. Mandalay Place is open 24 hours, so the walkway works overnight when the tram is not running. Full step-by-step directions are in the Mandalay Bay to Luxor walking guide.

Where is the Shark Reef Aquarium inside Mandalay Bay?

Shark Reef Aquarium is at the south end of the Mandalay Bay property, past the Mandalay Bay Beach pool area. From the Casino Level, follow signs for Shark Reef through the convention area corridor, past the pool entrance, to the aquarium box office. The 1.3-million-gallon aquarium is the largest on the Las Vegas Strip and houses sharks, rays, sea turtles, and a walk-through tunnel exhibit. Plan about a 5-minute walk from the casino floor to the entrance.

Where is Mandalay Bay Las Vegas located?

Mandalay Bay is at 3950 South Las Vegas Boulevard at the south end of the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. It anchors the southern end of the Strip with Luxor immediately to the north, Excalibur one stop further north on the free tram, and Harry Reid International Airport about 1.5 miles to the east. Mandalay Bay opened on March 2, 1999 and is operated by MGM Resorts International.
