    I was "stuck" with bottle service outside at XS last July and it sucked... First off Vegas is either too hot or too cold... In my case it was too hot... there was also a never ending line of people flowing threw the outside tables... Now traffic I like but a strait line passing by the tables at all times is not my idea of prime real estate... The inside has much less of a flow problem... We had 3 guys on 2 bottles they wanted a 300 handshake to get us inside... It worked out we paid 400 each 1600 total including tax & tip and a 100 handshake for our host who said he would get us a "good" outside table... BS

      I agree with JSki, I was there last July (4th long weekend)) and got an outside table. Granted my party was small the non-stop stream of people got annoying enough. If you do get an outside table I'd say make sure its not close to the any major entrance way.

        I would kinda have to disagree with some of the comments. It really depends where you are outside. Granted the flow of traffic does become annoying but this weekend traffic flow inside was a lot worse then it was outside.

        I think the best table outside to get are the ones that are considered outside but facing in towards the dance floor. Reason why I think those are the best tables is cause you get both inside and outside experience and it's really close to the dance floor so if you get tired or really hot with the amount of body heat generated on the dance floor then you can just walk out and get fresh air. Inside got really hot and clustered by 11:30-12 and it was hard just walking to the restrooms.

        It really depends on whether you want to be close the dance floor or away from it. That's how people rate outside tables cause there were tables that were on the opposite end of the pool which i dont think anyone really goes over that way unless you have a table over there.

          I have never sat outside. I'm sure its fine but, I feel like the energy is centered inside this club on the dancefloor. Security also does a good job of keeping people out of your space if you have a table (without be overly intrusive) and in helping the girls get to the bathroom. It is busy and between midnight and 3 AM downright insane.

            $400 each x 3 dudes = $1200?

            For a good table inside near the dance floor, I heard that it can be a steep min which I've never been inclined to pay ($8K). I've always been quoted 3 bottles for ok tables on the inside but nothing great (by the bathroom). For the inside handshake tip, you'd be somewhere on the steeper side as well.

            Can anyone verify if they've ever gotten a great table inside XS and what the min bottle was? I would also expect a grease of around $400 - $500 but want to ask that as well.

              I have been fortunate to be seated at the snakeskins several times and once on the back wall on a holiday weekend. If you want a spending minimum it can be difficult to say because there can be different people involved in the reservation. Once it went through casino and we were never told a minimum per se but, I think think 2 bottles of goose and 2 bottles of cristal were ordered off the bat. Another time they were slaiming to be sold out for a Saturday but, upper managment can approve the sale of one of the tables they hold back-magnums of goose, dom, cristal, "nice" tequilla were ordered. Also management seems to keep close tabs on all the tables there, which in my opinion is a good thing. Everyone there has always been awesome to us. For the best tables you are really competing with people ordering 5k worth of product and sometimes more. I was not aware on how common it was to see so much high end product is being popped there until recently i.e. good champagne. At the end of the day if a host doesn't know you then they need to insure you will be matching what their known premium customers are doing for a premium table.

                  Love the snakeskins. All the energy of the dancefloor (with a better view) and without people falling into your space.

                    How far back are the snakeskins from the dance floor? Are they the ones near the stripper poles?

                      I was at XS last Friday and to get a booth inside, we were quoted a 3 bottle min and an extra $500 (I'm assuming this was the grease our host was asking for?)...unless XS started charging a base price for tables that I'm unaware of. For a 2 bottle min and an extra $200, we got a round booth outside near the entryway between the club and pool. With just a 2 bottle min and no extra $, our host was going to put us at this "table" way in the back corner of the pool area. It was pathetic as it was just one little round table with 4 patio chairs surrounding it. There was no way we were going to take that since we had a group of 9, so we just paid the extra $200 & tipped our host a bit more since he did walk all of us in despite the 1 bottle per every 3 person rule of thumb.

                      As for our table, it seated 6-7 of us comfortably and was not too cramped since people went off to roam the club. I didn't notice that much traffic around us and the weather was perfect...not too hot or too cold.

                        Snakeskins have yellow/gold leather imbosed with a snakeskin print. They are the level of tables immediately above the dance floor. They share the space with the dancefloor tables where the stripper lamps are mounted.

                          Oh, I should add that I've also been stuck in a cabana outside in the dead of winter last December with a 2 bottle min and party of 10+ since we were almost an hour late showing up. It sucked and was freezing cold, but the cabana had its own heating system so that wasn't too bad. Far away from all the action, but we had enough people to start our own party
