Manage your expectations to not be caught in the Mirage

I love Mirage. Period. It may be my favorite club as an east coast guy. But I'm a weirdo who loves layout and decor and I love how Mirage looks and feels inside. And disclaimer, I've never been on a weekend night.

This club is huge inside. Big nice ceilings. The pole on the stage isn't even attached to the ceiling it's so high. Big comfortable seating all throughout the place. It was empty the night I went with at least 12 entertainers and about 7-8 patrons. Bar is well stocked and waitresses check on you as well. Any time I've ever been to this club, I've not been alone long as the entertainers are friendly and will come and work the crowd. They are usually solid 6s-8s every time I've been (~4x now).

But it is so pricey. And I get caught every time. I think it got pricier this most recent time I've visited in June too. $100 for your basic ten minute dance in an area with curtains. $200 to add door (10 mins). $450 for an upstairs villa (30 mins) where you get your own music. $700 for a half hour in the hot tub. I think there are more levels in between and I know there are more levels as it goes up from there. It just kills your wallet. Especially after my recent visit to another area of the country.
