Pala Casino and Resort

The Pala Casino and Resort in beautiful northern San Diego County, Pala is located 15 miles north of Escondido, 12 miles south
of Temecula. Pala is nestled in the mountains in a beautiful desert setting. It is relatively easy to get to, however some of the roads are narrow with lots of curves. We found drivers tend to travel very fast on these roads compared to someone who has never driven these particular roads before. If you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the place to come to relax. Have a good meal and enjoy the entertainment along with the usual gambling opportunities. We found the casino to be very clean, modern and enjoyable.

Pala Casino and Resort

Pala casino has over 2000 slots of all varieties along with table games, penny machines to the high roller slots that many people enjoy. There is a good number of video poker machines and keno machines as well. The floor is rectangular which means that few people will get lost in the casino. This is actually a problem in many of the larger casinos with floor layouts that are not in a rectangular layout. Smoking is allowed, although that did not appear to be a problem when we were there. There is good ventilation.

Pala Casino and Resort – Restaurants

There are several restaurants including coffee shops and deli’s, fast food takeout. As well as sit down areas with great service. We found the portions large and very tasty. Patrons can also share meals if they find that the amounts are too large for them. We spent the day at Pala and enjoyed it very much. There was one exception. Wine can be expensive if you do not order the house wine. Most casinos offer inexpensive refreshments, however, this is not the case with Pala. Be prepared to pay a little more for your drinks than you would at other Indian casinos. Certainly a lot more than at Vegas casinos.
