The pool at Wyndham Grand Desert is one of the highlights of the resort. The Mediterranean themed atmosphere offers a secluded feeling with lots of lounge chairs, umbrellas, and comfortable outdoor seating. There are several pools on the complex. One is for adults-only and offers a fun area for adults to relax away from the noise of children. The surrounding gardens are lush and well kept but no overwhelming as to take away the natural beauty of the desert landscape.

Several hot tubs and a large lagoon pool are usually very busy during the summer months. Guests include anyone from children and families to young couple and college students. There are also several areas on the deck that are shaded and away from the water for those just looking to sit outside and enjoy a book without swimming or sunbathing. The hotel towers surround the pool on several sides creating a private atmosphere would be almost impossible to create on the busy Las Vegas Strip.
