Did you know?
The Suncoast Casino represents the largest single property development investment on Durban's beachfront.
As you walk north along Durban’s Golden Mile early one morning, you will suddenly feel you’ve landed up in the middle of a Miami Art Deco dream.
You’ve arrived at the strikingly designed SunCoast Casino & Entertainment World, complete with pastel colours and palm trees.
For the gamblers in our midst, SunCoast is tops. More than 1 000 slot machines and 50 gaming tables combine with an exclusive Salon Prive to bring in the punters, the day-trippers and those with long pockets.
The lucky gamer gets to walk away with the R1-million SunStruck Progressive prize as well.
Once the gambling’s over, you can take some time out for a drink and perhaps catch your favourite sport on TV at the Casino Lounge Bar.
Near the casino are 18 restaurants and fast food outlets, a movie complex and a large number of retail shops. For the kids, there’s an entertainment arcade close by. There are also child-minders, doctors and dentists on call for last-minute emergencies.
Part of the Suncoast complex is the SunCoast Hotel & Towers, another Art Deco masterpiece offering stunning views of the Indian Ocean. The hotel sports 128 rooms and on the 9th floor is a massive health and beauty spa for those gamblers who sat at the tables all through the night.
The restaurant at the SunCoast Hotel & Towers is all about curries (the Durban theme) and seafood – but don’t miss out on their famous English Breakfast either.
In the evenings, the cocktail bar is humming with business and live music as gamblers and regular visitors rub shoulders in style.
Beachside at the SunCoast complex is the SunCoast Boardwalk, an amphitheatre has hosts regular shows and performance
