The Venetian Resort on the Las Vegas Strip has recently announced a partnership with Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California, marking the first-ever marketing agreement between a major commercial casino resort and a tribal-owned casino resort. This collaboration allows rewards members of both properties to use their loyalty points at either location and gain access to exclusive events, promotions, and experiences.
The strategic partnership between The Venetian and Pechanga aims to provide guests with unparalleled luxury and seamless access to world-class amenities at both destinations. Danny Ruiz, chief gaming officer of The Venetian, expressed excitement about welcoming Pechanga guests to their resort and offering Venetian Rewards members the opportunity to experience Pechanga’s top-notch casino offerings in Southern California.
Ken Perez, president of the Pechanga Development Corporation, emphasized the commitment to delivering exceptional experiences and luxury to guests through this landmark partnership with The Venetian Resort. Both properties are renowned for their superior gaming options, culinary experiences, entertainment offerings, and retail shopping opportunities.
The Venetian Resort, with 7,100 hotel rooms, 44 restaurants and bars, and 2.3 million square feet of meeting space, boasts a vast gaming area spanning 225,000 square feet. On the other hand, Pechanga features over 5,500 slots and 150 table games across 200,000 square feet, along with a High-Limit Salon and an outdoor pool complex equivalent to five football fields.
In a significant ownership change in March 2021, Las Vegas Sands sold The Venetian Resort and Palazzo to Apollo Global Management and Vici Properties for $6.25 billion. Apollo assumed operational control of the resort, while Vici acquired the physical assets, leasing the property to Apollo for $250 million annually. This partnership marks a new chapter for The Venetian Resort and sets the stage for enhanced guest experiences and collaborations in the future.
