Mandalay Bay is nice, it's at the very end of the strip though, so going anywhere is a walk that is deciptively long, keep in mind the pools won't be open that early in March if I'm not mistaken.
I go about 2-3 times a year, usually stay some place midway on the strip, Flamingo, Paris, Imperial Dump, Harrahs, Ballys, Treasure Island and Mirage are all central and reasonably priced, Imperial is in the middle of a construction zone so I'd avoid that for now.
Drinks are expensive if your not gambling, but if you tip the waitress you can sit there and bet a penny every 5 minutes and keep the drinks coming. Casino Royale has $1 Mich, Mich light and lime/strawberry margaritas 24/7
I'm not real big on the clubs, but the Palms has a pretty good deal on entry to 3 clubs on off nights sun-thurs, the clubs are retardedly expensive, as in if you go into one with a grand and think you're baller, forget it lol
This. We go a couple times a year and have stayed more times at the MGM than anywhere else. Drink prices are VERY expensive anywhere in the casinos. Our last few trips we have gotten a cheap cooler to keep in the room and hit a liquor store when we get there and get a 12 pack, a fifth of rum and sodas and water to keep in the room. It saves tons of money. Also look for the big coke bottle on the strip near New York New York, you get half priced show tickets there.
