SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - June 7, 2010) - San Diego's Barona Resort & Casino is betting that its new marketing relationship with two world-class resorts, The Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino and The Palazzo Resort-Hotel-Casino in Las Vegas, will be a big winner with its exclusive Club Barona members as well as draw a full-house of new Las Vegas casino guests to San Diego.
In the new relationship between Barona, The Venetian and The Palazzo, San Diego's leading resort casino and the two luxurious Las Vegas destinations will offer their loyal customers reciprocal complimentary hotel, dining and gaming deals.
"It's a win-win-win for all of us," says Barona Resort & Casino General Manager Rick Salinas. "Our frequent casino guests occasionally want the Las Vegas experience and their gamblers occasionally want the San Diego experience.
"To our thinking, this is a great way to reward our most valued Barona patrons. It gives our guests special privileges at two of the most luxurious casino properties in Las Vegas, and it gives their guests the opportunity to experience the leading gaming resort in California," he noted.
In a bid to attract more Southern Californians to brightly lit Las Vegas, The Venetian and The Palazzo, owned by Las Vegas Sands Corp., are inviting Barona's burgeoning customer base to visit their exclusive Las Vegas properties with hard-to-refuse offers of complimentary suites, meals, gondola rides and more.
"We're not competing with Las Vegas any more, we're actually complementing Las Vegas and Las Vegas is complementing us," said Salinas. "Our players want the same luxurious amenities and superior customer service during their visit to Las Vegas as they've come to expect here at Barona."
The Barona-Venetian-Palazzo relationship is a good deal for all properties.
A perfect venue for The Venetian and The Palazzo casino guest, the Barona Resort & Casino has its own high-limit gaming areas and ultra-luxurious private gaming rooms. In addition, Barona has a spectacular hotel with gorgeous suites, a selection of award-winning restaurants, a beautifully intimate spa and a world famous18-hole championship golf course, Barona Creek.
