Pechanga Casino Temecula There's Something for Everyone!
With bright lights flashing and non-stop excitement, the Pechanga Casino Temecula is an instant crowd-pleaser, attracting visitors that come from both near and wide to enjoy the amenities. I can't even begin to tell you how many people from San Diego, Los Angeles including Orange County, Riverside and the Chihuahua Valley come to the casino with hopes of wooing Lady Luck.
The history of the Pechanga Casino Temecula starts with the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians, who have called Temecula Valley their home for more than 10,000 years. The casino bears a name that literally translates into "place where the water drips."
To learn more about the casino and the Pechanga people the Pechanga Cultural Center (which protects historical sites and educates the public) demonstrates how casino revenue helps provide for the community.
On a side note, the Luiseno Indians run the Pechanga Cultural Center with an interesting feature that attracts visitors "the Great Oak" the largest natural-growing native oak tree in the U.S. This attraction is believed to have survived for up to 1,500 years.
The Great Oak is known as an important symbol for the people of Pechanga, as it signifies wisdom, strength, and determination.
To take pleasure in this awe-inspiring historical and cultural sight you can book a visit by calling 951-308-9295 to make an advance reservation. I am also told that this exciting tour is arranged for one Friday out of each month.
To bring home the spirit of the Pechanga Tribe, don't forget to stop by the shops and browse the decorative candles; bath and body products; unforgettable giftware; and beautiful Native American art and jewelry.
Shops are found adjacent to the Hotel Lobby; beside the Theater; and close to the South Casino entrance.
After enjoying all the shopping available in the Casino and you're feeling like a bite to eat, try the Great Oak Steakhouse appropriately named after this awe-inspiring ancient oak tree.
The Pechanga Casino Temecula offers everything under the sun with an undeniable versatility. The gaming floor measures nearly 200,000 square feet allowing you to explore the largest betting paradise in California. Just a taste of what to expect when planning a trip to the electrifying setting of Pechanga is listed below:
Gaming
Slot and video machines decorate the gaming floor, as the rush of patrons hover over the more than 160 table games offered at Pechanga. Why not consider doubling-down on a possible '21' at the Blackjack table before tossing the dice during a game of Craps? 3-Card Poker, Pai Gow, and Mini Baccarat are other favorites at the casino.
The Pechanga Poker Room (found on the second floor) offers non-stop action all year round. Dotting the gaming floor, a guest may visit a handful of bars, lounges, and eateries when looking for a bit more than the already convenient cocktail service offered during gameplay.
Entertainment
There is truly something for everyone when it comes to entertainment at Pechanga Casino Temecula, as the typical show highlights the talent of today, yesterday, and the future. One moment Carlos Mencia is creating laughter, while next week is spent traveling back into time with performances by the likes of Teena Marie, Wayne Newton and the Beach Boys.
Pechanga is definitely known for its versatility, offering the intrigue of gourmet
cooking classes;
live championship boxing in the Grand Ballroom (often broadcast on HBO, ESPN, Fox Sports and NBC); nightly amusement at the Cabaret Lounge; and Broadway musicals at the Pechanga Theatre.
Pechanga Improv
With a never-ending collection of comedians, the Pechanga Improv aims to fill your life with laughter that lasts for days.
This comedy club is open five nights a week offering seven shows between Wednesday and Sunday.
Call the Pechanga Box Office at 877-711-2WIN(2946) to reserve your tickets.
Restaurants
What will you eat when visiting Pechanga Casino Temecula as Italian, Asian, Mexican, and American cuisine offers delicious edibles at the food court?
I have to say the menus at the gourmet Pechanga
restaurants
(Paisano's, the Grotto, Kelsey's, and the Great Oak Steakhouse) are to 'live' for with imported cheeses, signature entrees, and the Windmill Mud Pie. And just like most casinos; an all-you-can-eat buffet offers a feast for choosy patrons. What casino is complete without one?
Plan a Luxurious Getaway
Travelers looking for more than just a tour of Temecula gaming often reserve a room at the
resort
and make a full vacation out of their visit. Visions of
Wine Country
greet guests, who peer out of windows connected to a deluxe room, one-bedroom suite, or Jacuzzi comfort.
The Spa Pechanga (on the third floor) encourages pampering like no other with dry saunas and outdoor swimming. Massage therapy is a popular release at Spa Pechanga, where guests can choose from the European full body massage; deep tissue attention for tension and stress relief; and treatments that utilize hot stones and oil.
RV Park
Not everyone visits Pechanga Casino Temecula by way of car or
limousine,
as many guests pile into their recreational vehicle and head for the RV Resort, where 168 sites provide access to full electric, water, cable television, and sewer service. You even get Internet access for no charge at all!
However, it is suggested to make arrangements ahead of time to enjoy this feature of Pechanga, as the RV park operates on a first-come, first serve basis.
To make a reservation or inquire about a special package call 877-997-8386.
