Practical tips for families staying at Flamingo
For families traveling with children, reserve a room with two beds or a suite if you need more space; confirm crib availability and any fees with the hotel before arrival. If you plan pool time, check pool season dates because outdoor pools are seasonal.
Bring or have ready government-issued IDs for any adult guests, especially if you plan to visit the GO Pool, casino areas, or bars. Factor in the resort fee and separate charges for parking, meals, and spa services when budgeting your stay.
- Book a room that lists 2 Queen Beds if you need separate beds for children
- Ask the hotel about crib availability and any setup charges before you travel
- Check pool season dates and daily hours (typically 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.)
- Carry ID for anyone 21+ planning to use adult-only areas
| Before you go | Action |
|---|---|
| Confirm bedding/cribs | Request in advance with the hotel |
| Budget for extra fees | Resort fee, parking, meals, spa and pool extras |
| Plan pool days | Verify seasonal openings and family vs. adult areas |
