The Most Extravagant Casinos in the World

posted in: World  |  posted by: Jennifer Gregory on August 20, 2008  |  3 Comments

Casinos all over the world are well-known for their glitzy appearances, bright lights, and the incredibly loud sounds of coins dropping into winning machines. While most casinos attract their gambling clientele from anywhere within a few hours driving distance, other casinos have the distinct ability to attract a more elite group of gamers.

Not every casino is concerned with having the loudest and gaudiest glitz. Some would prefer to be known for their stellar customer service and superior gaming, dining, and lodging amenities. Look no further for our favorite, and quite possibly the most extravagant, casinos in the world!

Atlantis Paradise Island Resort & Casino

You might prefer to spend your days exploring the beaches of the lost island of Atlantis, but be sure to save a few hours of your day or evening to enjoy the Atlantis Paradise Island Casino as well. The Atlantis Casino is, by far, the largest casino in the entire Caribbean and you won’t want to miss out on this incredible gaming experience.

The Atlantis Casino features over 800 slot machines, 75 gaming tables, and an elite racing and sports book. There’s no need to sign up for an extra players card; simply use your room key in the slot machines and you’ll immediately start earning points towards complimentary rooms and meals, discounts, and special events. Unlike most casinos, the Atlantis features a gorgeous design that will allow you to look outside and continue to enjoy the scenery while you play.

The Bellagio

Bellagio Casino

The Bellagio is one of the most elegant resort casinos you’re going to come across in Las Vegas. You’ll enjoy passing the time during the day by taking in a show, touring the botanical gardens, or relaxing in the spa. Your evenings, on the other hand, will be filled with entertainment and glamour amidst the glorious casino floor.

The main casino floor at the Bellagio features over 2,400 slots and table games. The elite Poker Room has earned its place as a stop on the World Poker Tour. Bobby’s Poker Room is reserved for high stakes players, boasting the perfect atmosphere for concentration in a place where a $20,000 buy-in is the minimum!

Grand Casino Beograd

The Grand Casino Beograd in Belgrade, Serbia features over 230 video slots and 25 live gaming tables. Games include American Roulette, 3-card Poker, Texas Hold’em, and more. Punto Bunco is the Serbian name for Baccarat, and the game is played with the same rules that have existed since the 18th century!

The Grand Casino is limited to gaming only and does not have a resort hotel like so many other casinos around the world. They boast some of the loosest slot machines in the country, claiming you can win up to 1,000,000 dinars after playing only 1. Despite its lack of hotel accommodations, there are dozens of fine-dining establishments and shops throughout the Grand Casino in which you can spend the dinars you win at the gaming tables!

Holland Casino

Holland Casino

The Holland Casino not only provides an elaborate gaming experience, but has the esteemed reputation for being the only company in Holland to be issued a license to open a legal gaming establishment. The Netherlands did not revise their gaming laws until 1974, after World War II, at which point casinos were allowed to open. Holland decided to issue only one license in order to be sure that gaming remained as fair as possible. That license was won by the corporation that trades as the Holland Casino group, and they can now be found across the country.

Enjoy the slots and gaming tables in style, and keep your eyes peeled for special events such as Ladies Day, when gaming is reserved for ladies only during certain hours. The Holland Casino currently boasts 14 locations throughout the country, with at least 5 more in the works, so keep your eyes peeled for the closest gaming hall on your next visit to the Netherlands.

Crystal Palace Casino

Wyndam Nassau Hotel

The Crystal Palace Casino is part of the Wyndham Nassau Resort in Nassau, Bahamas. The elegantly decorated casino brings all of the comforts of Las Vegas to the Bahamas, where you can play in between beach, spa, or snorkeling trips!

The casino features over 400 slot machines and 40 gaming tables. Any game you usually find in an American casino can be found in the Crystal Palace. Visitors who join the Passport Rewards Club can earn points towards complimentary rooms, meals, and more! Unlike the United States, the minimum age for gambling here is only 18!

No matter which casino you visit, you’ll enjoy luxury amenities, dining options, and hotel accommodations like no other. The staff at these casinos will bend over backwards to make sure you are as comfortable and happy as possible during your visit or stay. Please gamble responsibly and enjoy your stay!

    these places are really awesome. Aside from the luxury and 5-star treatment, the Casino is worth dying for.
