Chumash Casino Resort

Chumash Casino Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The CHUMASH CASINO RESORT was better than 90% of the Las Vegas Casinos. CHUMASH CASINO RESORT is beautiful indoor and outside. It’s beautifully landscaped throughout the entire resort property. The Resort Lobby is absolutely gorgeous with its 5-star casino decor, comfortable lobby furniture and interior wall decor. Our room was even more beautifully decorated and the two queen size beds made us feel as if we were sleeping on a cloud”. Every resort employee from the valet parking, front desk lobby, bell service and casino area were friendly, courteous, and respectful. They worked as a team to provide the resort guests more than a 5-star service. I am honored to recommend the CHUMASH CASINO RESORT as the best place to stay in the Solvang, Santa Ynez area. If fun and hot casino action is what you’re looking for, you will not be disappointed by staying here."
