Moroccan-inspired pool deck with daybeds, cabanas, and brunch
"Let’s start big picture here. Guests staying at The NoMad Las Vegas , a boutique hotel within the larger Park MGM Resort, have access to their very own rooftop pool on the 6th floor. Inspired by the Majorelle Gardens of Morocco and designed by Jacques Garcia (the interior designer for NoMad), the intimate pool deck ditches the usual Vegas poolside furniture of plastic chairs and glass tables for rattan loungers topped with plush padding and wooden Morroccan side tables. There’s just one pool, but with well-made drinks from the NoMad bar team and delicious small plates created by Eleven Madison Park ’s Daniel Humm, you won’t need much more. Any standout features or must-sees? For now, the pool is only open on the weekends but it has put its weekend party scene on hold as well. Guests can thankfully still order up gourmet bites from the restaurant and slurp clever cocktails from NoMad’s star mixologist Leo Robitschek while they lounge poolside. Yet the most standout feature might just be having a gorgeous and intimate rooftop pool free of wild Vegas partiers. Was it easy to get around? NoMad guests can access the pool through the spa, but on weekends they will have to go to a different entrance just off the Park MGM front desk and past the Primrose restaurant. All said and done, what—and who—is this best for? The limited space of the rooftop ensures that you won’t be participating in some overrun pool party. But it is a pricey way to spend a weekend by the pool. If you can, soak up the sunshine and peace during the week." - Juliana Shallcross
"Every Friday through Sunday, the NoMad Pool, a part of NoMad Hotel inside Park MGM, throws an intimate yet wild pool party known as JEMAA. This boutique dayclub is fueled by an upscale Champagne list, Instagram-worthy cocktails designed to serve 15, plus much-loved fare from NoMad bar including fried chicken with chili-lime yogurt, fava bean hummus, and milk and pina colada soft serve." - Krista Diamond
"Located on NoMad’s third-floor roof deck, the NoMad Pool combines Jacques Garcia’s Moroccan Majorelle Garden–inspired design with daybeds and cabanas and a poolside restaurant by Make It Nice Hospitality that serves an all-day brunch menu featuring many NoMad dishes — fava bean hummus, avocado toast, chia pudding, mushroom omelet, and a breakfast burrito stuffed with suckling pig, eggs, potatoes, spinach, and chile de árbol — as well as pool-friendly items like a truffle chicken club, lobster roll, frozen piña coladas, and magnums of Champagne; the pool also hosts a new pool-party series called Jemaa." - Eater Staff
"The roof deck at NoMad Pool hosts the evening’s social hour at 6:30 p.m., where participants gather for cocktails before the dinner portion of the event." - Susan Stapleton
"I learned that the NoMad Pool at the NoMad inside the Park MGM is getting ready to open on Monday, April 8; its Pool Restaurant plans to offer an all-day brunch menu featuring many of NoMad’s dishes, including fava bean hummus, avocado toast, chia pudding, a mushroom omelet, and a breakfast burrito stuffed with suckling pig, eggs, potatoes, spinach, and chile de arbol. A seafood section will include salmon salad, scallop ceviche, a lobster roll, and a daily selection of oysters served with a champagne mignonette. The food lineup also includes fried chicken and truffled chicken club sandwiches, plus a dry-aged beef burger featuring a special sauce. NoMad’s bar director Leo Robitschek created a cocktail menu that includes Ma Cherie (Fino sherry, lime, falernum, green chartreuse, celery, cucumber, and salt); Berried Treasure (Antiguan rum, Aperol, Fino sherry, strawberry, orgeat, and lime); the Detox Retox (blended Scotch, rums, aged cachaça, and coconut water); and Tropicana Avenue (Elyx vodka, Campari, lemon, strawberry, vanilla, and mint). There will also be a frozen Piña Colada menu, bottle service featuring Armand de Brignac Ace of Spades, Moët et Chandon, Billecart-Salmon and others, table-side cocktail service, and a cocktail fountain that can be delivered to a cabana. Designed by Jacques Garcia with a Moroccan Majorelle Garden inspiration, the pool sits on the resort’s third floor with daybeds and cabanas and free access for hotel guests. Jemaa, the NoMad Pool party, debuts April 12 with Mayer Hawthorne, followed by Mark Ronson on April 13 and DJ Five on April 14; locals with a valid Nevada identification get into Jemaa for free before noon." - Susan Stapleton
