Eyecandy bar opens at 11 a.m. daily; eyecandy sound lounge opens at 7 p.m. nightly.

Foundation Room: Accessible only by private elevator, the Foundation Room sits atop the Mandalay Bay on the 43rd floor in an enviable perch. Once a members-only venue, the low-lit lounge is now open to the public nightly with events ranging from dance music nights to burlesque shows. Authentic artifacts from India and Tibet, intricately carved wood-paneled walls and lush fabrics lend an Eastern, mystical ambiance.
