Elia Beach Club 2026 Guide
A current 2026 guide to Elia Beach Club at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas — who it fits, how it compares with the bigger Strip dayclubs, and when an off-Strip pool party is the smarter call.
Elia Beach Club is one of the most interesting newer Vegas dayclub queries because it sits at Virgin Hotels and gives travelers a real off-Strip pool party that does not feel like a downgrade.

Why this guide matters
Built for the actual summer booking decision
Elia Beach Club is strongest when the group wants a Mediterranean-styled, design-forward dayclub experience and does not need to be physically on the Strip. It is one of the smartest answers for couples and mixed groups who want a quieter, more aesthetic pool party with real production value.
Frames Elia as the off-Strip pool answer that does not feel like a compromise.
Useful for couples and mixed groups who want design over scale.
Clarifies who should choose Elia over the bigger, louder Strip rooms.
Planning notes
How to use this guide
Elia is at its best when the group is open to staying off-Strip at Virgin Hotels, or willing to commit to a one-day pool trip out of the main corridor.
It is not the right answer for groups that need maximum scale or the loudest possible EDM dayclub — pick TAO Beach or Encore Beach Club for that.
Pair Elia with a calmer overall itinerary rather than stacking it next to a big nightclub night.
