This casino has recently renamed South Point and reacquired by the original owner, Michael Gaughan, from Boyd Gaming. Room rates are moderate with frequent bargains since it was built in anticipation of future development in the immediate area. Another major obstacle is its location some 6 miles south of the nearest casino, Mandalay Bay, and absence of ready access from I-215. The hotel is new and was apparently built with the same design plan as the Suncoast. Rooms are spacious and nicely appointed though there is not an overbundance of furniture thereby giving an air of roominess. A nice feature is the 42"" plasma TVs and over the bed lighting allows one to read comfortably. The pool and jacuzzi area is very nice although I understand the odor from the nearby equestrian center is noticeable when there is an event. We were surprised one late afternoon when an announcement was made over the PA system that the pool area would close a 6PM. There is surface and a garage which are equidistant (long) to the rooms and casino. Live ntertainment is currently limited to dueling pianos on weekends though a showroom is in the plans. Other entertainment optiions include a bowling area and movie theatre.
Pros: Low priced, high quality, well rounded amenities
Cons: Poor location
