Is a Casino Hotel the Right Destination for You?
As long as you are the kind of person who is aware that they are not going to go home owning the casino, you should treat yourself to the awesome spectacle that these places have become. Whether it is Thanksgiving, Christmas, or you just want to bring in the new year in a new way, few things match the excitement of staying at a hotel that provides gaming, as well as shows and concerts.
Over the years, competition had driven these resorts to become much more than a place to gamble, drink, and rest your head for a few minutes. Indeed, these palatial villas are as much amusement park, as they are resort and gaming spots. So much so, that in fact these places have become wonderful destinations to take the children, as well.
Whether or not you are by yourself, a partner, or the family, you will not be saying, Blah, humbug, if you are staying at the Excalibur. In fact, you may never make it to the casino if you start out in the Fun Dungeon. This is a recreation of an old midway carnival that you may have experienced as a child, or never did but always wanted to. Full of games, arcade games, rides and fun food you can feed your inner-child with. Throw in Excalibur’s enormous swimming pools, castle environment, not to mention the feasting and jousting, and you will be lucky to get in any time at the casinos at all.
Of course, taking your children into the gaming areas may not be a good idea, but the gambling resorts these days offer delightful attractions to keep your kids entertained, while you enjoy some cards or roulette. In fact, even if you are not a gambler, you may want to take the kids to places with rides, water parks, and their own (video) gaming lounge. If you are riding a poor streak at the tables, the best way to break out of it is to visit some of the attractions that the hotels offer, yourself. In fact, you will forget about everything in the world if you are staying at the Mandalay in Las Vegas, and walk the acrylic tunnel into their 1.6 million gallon aquarium teeming with predators. This staggering experience will imprint itself upon your memory bank for life, and nearly overload your sensory capabilities. You will find yourself in a lost world of 2,000 animals, sharks, giant stingrays, a rare golden crocodile, and so much more. If you get back to the gaming room and start winning, you can really try your luck and schedule a diving trip for later with those same predatory animals. After an experience like that, the high stake crap tables are going to seem boring.
The golfing at a casino hotel is beyond comparison, and some of the world’s top rated courses can be found at casino resorts. The links are meticulously landscaped, and wickedly challenging. After playing nine, or eighteen holes, you may just find yourself looking around at your surroundings, taking a deep breath of fresh air, and saying that you just love the holidays, because, as you now know, it is the most wonderful time of the year.
