TEMECULA, Calif. – Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, Calif., the largest resort/casino in Calif., was the only Calif. casino nominated to the list of the 10 best casinos in the country, representing Calif. as a whole. By Monday, July 17, four thousand Pechanga team members hope they will continue working for the #1 casino in the nation. Defending its title, Pechanga was voted the Best U.S. Casino in the 2015 USA Today 10Best poll. Since then, Pechanga has broken ground on a $285 million expansion set to be completed by the end of 2017, making the property the largest on the west coast and a massive employer in southern California, hiring nearly one thousand additional team members.
Through initial voting, Pechanga’s rank is No. 2. The tribal-owned casino is running against internationally known, five-star properties across the U.S.
Pechanga is currently joined on the list of 20 resort/casinos by properties in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and the south. Those interested can vote for Pechanga Resort & Casino by clicking HERE.
Casino properties were chosen for the poll by Lisa Robertson-Dziedzic, Editorial Director for Casino Player and Strictly Slots magazine, and by Tony Harrell, a certified destination expert for Las Vegas, New Orleans and Canada.
