If you enjoy casinos as well as exotic and luxurious locations, and are lucky enough to be able to fund both of these things, then you should definitely combining the two for an absolutely unforgettable holiday, that might just pay for itself! In this article, we will be listing some of the most idyllic locations for casinos in the world that offer a change to the regular online sites.
Divi’s Flamingo Beach Resort and Casino
This Resort and Casino is in Bonaire, a tiny Caribbean island that is often called a diver’s paradise. The waters surrounding it are immaculate and the wildlife is easily observable, especially because the resort has direct access to the water for snorkelling or diving.
The resort itself is luxurious, and has two pools, a twenty four hour fitness centre, live events, buffet nights and even a life sized chessboard. The resort is colourful, warm and welcoming and all the rooms are air conditioned. There is both typical Caribbean food and drinks on offer as well as cuisine from all over the world.
If you have not been convinced already, then the casino should be enough to sway you. It occupies three thousand square feet, with live games of roulette and blackjack as well as over 60 options for slots and video poker machines. The entire resort was renovated as recently as 2015, so it truly is an idyllic place to enjoy both sandy beaches and the thrills of the casino.
Atlantis Harborside Resort
This Resort is also situated in the Caribbean in Paradise Island. It is located just next to a golf course and is perfect for groups of around eight people. Scuba diving and snorkelling are of course available, as well as activities such as parasailing and windsailing. There are several restaurants within a ten minute walk, as well as other attractions like Versailles Gardens, Water Tower and Fort Fincastle, all within a ten minute drive.
If you are travelling with kids, a big plus is the complimentary water park that your children are sure to love. It features several waterslides and a Lazy River. There are also six tennis courts and a full service spa, with activities such as body wraps and facials available.
There is also of course a casino with all the games that you would expect such as roulette, blackjack, slots and video poker. There are live versions of blackjack and roulette for you to experience all the highs and lows of gambling with other people, and customers have described it as a “very complete international level casino”.
The Reef at Atlantis
Another Resort on Paradise Island, the Reef at Atlantis is one of the island’s more expensive options but there is plenty of reason for the increased cost. You can stay in units that come with a kitchen area, which means you can whip up some meals for yourself or go out to the many restaurants within walking distance. The resort is in a secluded part of the island and there are only hotel residents on the beach.
There is also a large pool that is exclusive to the Reef and the Cove guests, free access to the waterpark Auquaventure as well as marine exhibits, a Starbucks on the property and a free shuttle that can take guests pretty much wherever on the island. There is also a meal plan, which coupled with the kitchen is a good plan to avoid the very expensive restaurants.
There is also of course a casino. The casino is not exceptional of itself compared to the rest of what you can expect from the hotel, but it is still a worthy option for all your gambling desires. It has live blackjack and roulette options as well as slots and video poker machines if you prefer those.
Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Punta Cana
The final resort on this list is located in the Dominican Republic and is truly an idyllic destination. Its list of benefits is quite frankly incredible. There are 12 different dining options, 23 bars and lounges as well as a nightclub and it is all inclusive. There are 13 swimming pools with an adults only one and a more kids friendly one that includes water slides.
The rooms are impressive in terms of size and amenities, as they come with furnished outdoor spaces, two person jetted tubs and minibars. There is also an eighteen hole golf course that was designed by the golfer who was the most majors in history, Jack Nicklaus and a huge spa that has a hydrotherapy centre and a total of 46 treatment cabins.
Finally, while other resorts on this list have a casino on the side as an appeal, for this resort it is one of the main appeals. The casino is forty five thousand square feet and is the largest in all of the Dominican Republic, so almost anything you could imagine from a casino is there: live table games, slots, video poker and much more.
