How realistic is this?

[iamkhai]

So I'm still planning like mad for my group in June and I realistically want to know about something. We are doing GA at a club on Thursday night so we won't be completely hammered for the daybed at the pool party on Friday. Then we are doing bottle service Friday night. The group is asking for a second pool party on Saturday, so I have it in the tentative plans, but realistically, I don't think all 6 of us are going to be able to wake up before noon on Saturday after near 30 hours of straight partying. One of the guys thinks it won't be a problem while another is expressing his concern that it would be a waste as we would likely be too hung over on Saturday during the day to hit up the pool and be there on time before our daybed or cabana was gone.

Yes I know if we "party smart" we will be fine. But let's be honest here, we don't party smart. I don't want to put down a deposit only to have some of the group not go cause they can't.

I've put an alternate for Saturday pool to just do GA so those that can and want to can go, while the hung over guys can stay back. Think this covers it?

Who is making you place a deposit on a daybed reservation? That is not the norm unless it's NYE or something like that. After partying that much, it's true that it can take a toll, but it's Vegas and how often do you go big like that?

Pool parties go on all day, and your entire group does not need to be there all at once. If you got 6 dudes, and maybe 2 want to sleep in, just make the reservation, whoever is up gets there at opening to claim the spot and then arrange with your host a late entry walkin for the laggers and you'll be good to go.

Trust me, when the laggers roll up later and see you guys having a blast, they will throw down a few real quick and turn the corner in no time. Pool parties go until 4 or 5pm. Your buddies gonna sleep all day?

You shouldn't have to put down a deposit for a pool reservation. It will be challenging though to go pool, club, pool back to back to back...especially if you go hard late at the club. You can show up for the pool after 12, you just won't get first pick of locations.

Go for the two shorter sleep plan. Sleep from 6am-11am, then again from 7pm-10pm.

Most nightclubs run from like 1030pm-5am with the headline dj on around 1am
most pool parties run from like 11am-6pm with the headline dj on around 3pm
also worth mentioning the Saturday pool party will be busier then the friday party- more people in town on saturday then friday

That being said I'm not sure of your stamina- for example if your in the hot sun from 11am-6pm you might be knocked out.

Almost sounds like my future trip

Thursday is up in the air
Friday day club, night club
Saturday day club, night club
Sun, home

I'd do that, but some of these dudes are worse than women in terms of getting ready. And it isn't like they do that much either. I probably have it the worst to get ready as I have to shave my head each night, but still I can get ready in less than 15 minutes while some of the guys take over an hour. It's unbelievable.

Oh come on now. I went once with two girls, one other guy, and me. We managed to do:
Fri: Wet/Surrender
Saturday: Tao Beach/Marquee
Sunday: EBC/XS

If we can pull off that schedule with two women in the group, your guys can buck up.

The pools really start to die down by 5pm, and the clubs die down by 4am usually. You could change it to 5am-10am and 6pm-9pm sleep time Keep in mind that is still a ton of sleep.

I'm preparing for 5 days of back to backs. Three can be done easily. The night clubs die down around 4 by the headliner is usually off by three, and there is no shame in bouncing then to make sure you get up for the next day. Hell I know I have a 36-48 period of no sleep in my future.

The Dayclubs wind down around 4. Again don't think you have to close down every club you go to. It's a marathon not a sprint.

You can do it. The hardest part is getting out of bed. Once you're up, moving around, and grab your first drink you'll be fine. Also, take a look at this thread: http://forums.jackcolton.com/showthr...-hangover-cure

In terms of "pre-paying", I know EBC places requires a per-authorization for the water couches. Reason being that they're in a prime location and there's only 4 of them...which is a pain in the ass, but understandable.

That sleep window 7pm-10pm is the dangerous one...I can't count how many times I overslept after a day party!
I've set alarms, calls from the front desk...all dangerous...tread wisely...good luck with that.

Personally I'd pre sale/GA the pools. Peeps don't want to go, cool. You want to go for a bit and roll. Cool, not much invested in it. Let's everyone run the days they see fit or feel.

Just my opinion... I find it easier to do BS at a club one night then pool the next day VS trying to do a Pool and a Club the same day. After the pool, I'd typically be so smashed that I just needed to crash and not even try to force myself up for the club that night. It may be a good move to do BS Thursday - Pool Fri - Fri Night optional or GA - Pool Sat. This is if you're focusing on hitting the pools. Friday pools aren't that busy so you can usually hit them noon -1pm and still get a spot. The pools go to 6-7pm so you have a lot of time.

Great advice Kaz! It took me many trips before learning that lesson. You are wise.

Try for a pool party and club in the same day. My girls and I do it Thurs-Sun every time we visit Vegas. We pretty much follow chrisbru's recommended sleep schedule. I always down 500 mL of pedialyte or coconut water before knocking out and keep a bottle of water by the bed to drink in case I wake up. No hangovers!
