Tripadvisor reviews emphasize that people stay there for more than the casino action.

“Our stay was great. Our room was clean. We requested a room close to the elevator. We received it. Our drive back to the airport was very pleasant. The bus driver was the sweetest,” one reviewer said.

Beau Rivage is celebrating its 25th anniversary year and continues to receive accolades.

“The initial $750 million investment was a huge gamble, a casino resort built to be a national destination in a regional sized market,” said Mary Cracchiolo, Beau Rivage director of communications. “It is nice to receive this recognition, and to know that 25 years later, we are doing better than ever. It’s a lot of people making that vision come to life.”
