Drai's 11th-Floor Rooftop Beachclub & Nightclub

“If you’re looking for the best after-hours spot in Vegas, this is IT. The vibes are unmatched, the staff is amazing, and the energy stays high all night long. Everyone is welcoming, the music is fire, and somehow the party only gets better as the night goes on. One of the few places where you can literally dance until sunrise and still not want to leave. Can’t wait to come back!”

“Absolutely loved Drai’s After Hours — easily one of the best nightclubs I’ve ever been to in Vegas. It’s such a different scenery and vibe compared to the rest of the clubs! I had such a good time I literally had to come back the next day because the vibes were immaculate . Our server took amazing care of us all night and made the experience even better. Now that they have both EDM and hip hop on Saturdays, I already know I can pull up no matter what vibe …”

“We decided to give Drai’s another chance after our first experience wasn’t the best, and I’m so glad we did. Their team reached out personally, genuinely listened to our concerns, and went above and beyond to make things right. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and taken care of. The service was amazing, the atmosphere was everything we expected, and they truly redeemed themselves. It says a lot about a business that values customer feedback and…”

“Drais After Hours got more organized, and I have been there this past New Year's Eve and numerous times since, so it’s time to update my review. The After Hours spot is way more organized than it used to be, with no helter-skelter lines or blatant line-jumping by people with cash to get in. The staff is professional, and manager Tim is as solid as they come. I like the underground red-light vibe and the multi-room experience at Drais After Hours. Like an…”

Drai's 11th-Floor Rooftop Beachclub & Nightclub

“Attended a private evening event put on by a sponsor to a convention I was attending. They have this yearly and it is very popular. Not really my thing, but it's a large place with both indoor and outdoor areas, DJ, dance floor with pools. It was quite cold in January to be outside comfortably even with the heaters. Music gets pretty loud and while they had appetizers there seemed to be only 2 hosts bringing them around to 300+guests. Of course it was fre…”
