Celebrating the milestone, the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians will open the doors to the Yaamava’ Resort & Casino, formerly the San Manuel Casino, with a VIP invitation-only event for tribal citizens and special guests.

Located in Highland, California, the 432-room hotel is lauded as the “ultimate Southern California get-away” and includes an expansive pool deck, full-service spa, expanded dining options and 24-hour in-room dining. 

The top floor of the hotel tower features an exclusive lounge with indoor and outdoor areas allowing guests to take in views of the San Bernardino Mountains. Moreover, in spring 2022, a 2,800-seat theatre will join the list of amenities.

“In my thirty plus years in the hotel industry, I have never been more excited to open a property than I am Yaamava’ Resort & Casino,” added Afsi Bird, VP of hotel operations

“With the guidance and support of the Tribe, we are building something truly unique that is rooted in exceptional service and dedicated to creating memorable experiences for our guests.”

To commemorate the opening, Yaamava’ Resort & Casino will host a public promotion with prizes valued at more than $120,000 on December 13, 2021.
