10 of the most amazing casinos in the world
There are just casinos, and there are casinos from which the head goes round and their luxury dazzles. There are no cheap breakfasts, buffet tables and diluted gin in plastic cups. We’re talking about casinos with Michelin-starred restaurants, and their vibrant nightlife and chic gaming rooms will be remembered by anyone for the rest of their lives! From China and South Africa to Las Vegas, we’ve made up the world’s ten most stunning casinos!
Wynn Macau
Macau
Experienced players say that resort casinos in Macau are much more interesting than in Las Vegas. The resorts boast two Michelin-star restaurants, luxurious hotel rooms and a decadent spa that offers a gentle silk glove massage and cashmere wrap.
A fountain and a water dance show have made this casino famous. Having copied the idea of Bellagio, the owner Steve Wynn does not complain about life, because two thirds of his income comes from this place.

Belladzhio
Las Vegas, Nevada

Rüstenburg, South Africa
There are few places on earth where you can enjoy safari during the day and casino games at night. But that’s how you relax at the Sun City Casino Resort, a two-hour drive from Johannesburg. This is probably the most important feature of this luxury establishment. Among other things, you can play golf, go water skiing and parasailing on an artificial lake, visit an outdoor water park with rivers and waterfalls and, of course, quad bike riding.
Tip: Choose the most extravagant of the five hotels, the Palace of the Lost City, featuring stunning mosaics, frescoes and fountains.
Marina Bay Sands
Singapore
This institution worth $8 billion and opened 5 years ago is the most expensive autonomous hotel-casino in the world. The three towers of the building are united under one roof, which houses the tallest and largest pool in the world. The 57th floor offers stunning views, while the indoor skating rink is a perfect refuge from the hot Singapore sun. There are 12 of the world’s biggest shows and many “star” restaurants.

The huge facility features Universal Studios theme park and the largest oceanarium in the world, as well as thousands of square metres of playground, almost two dozen restaurants and a grand outdoor spa.
Tip: Although not Monte Carlo, the dress code is even stricter: no shorts, sandals, hats, sunglasses or masks.
Atlantis Casino & Resort
Paradise Island, the Bahamas
The Bridge Suites are some of the most expensive in the world, and Nobu and Jean-Georges’ Dune are the best on the island. There are also stunning golf courses, an unforgettable Mandara Decadent Spa, an impressive concert hall with Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars and, in fact, a casino that occupies an enormous area.
Tip: Visit the delightful blackjack gaming pavilions in the cool Caribbean breeze.
Cosmopolitan Las Vegas
Las Vegas, Nevada
When the Cosmopolitan opened in 2010, it was the most sexually relaxed and daring establishment. Since then, nothing has changed. Although it’s not the biggest play area, it has many other advantages. All 3000 rooms have open balconies, and half of them boast breathtaking views of the Bellagio fountains. You will definitely discover the excellent bars and restaurants, where some of the best chefs of the world are working in the kitchen.
