text: I went to Talking Stick Resort Release Pool Party last weekend for my bday This place is pretty cool It is open to the public for and older and you get in for free They have a huge spacious pool with lots of seating and cabanas around the outer perimeter along the gate Each cabana can be closed off for privacy had bottle service and each has their own TV They have a DJ every Saturday and Sunday a full bar and a nice little menu to choose from if you get hungry The Release Pool Party is from to about but the DJ does not really start until or We got here early so we could find a spot with shade and wanted to check things out before it got crazy The older crowed and people who want to kind of chill were there the crazy party people really did not start pouring in until about Literally every seat in the house was taken by people are swimming people are chit chatting people are dancing eating drinking its basically a huge bar with a pool its pretty coolnnA few tips make sure you bring shoes because the walk to the bathrooms and the bar are pretty long and you will burn your feet They have servers who come around and take care of food and drink orders but once it gets busy they take too long So walking to the bar and standing in line is easier Also come a little early if you want a chair in the shade it gets hot and the sun can definitely do a number on your skin I really wish they would invest in a few more umbrellas or at least have umbrellas that shade portions of the pool because I definitely was burnt when I left That was applying sunscreen at least once an hour toonnOverall the prices for drinks and food are not bad what you would expect from a casino or bar the DJs are pretty cool and the atmosphere is fun It is a good time to be had
