At the 'wet' casinos, which include most, the cocktail waitresses will serve you alcoholic drinks, but expect to pay bar prices.

As with every casino in California, only nonalcoholic drinks are free to players.

I suspect they also have a larger than average Hispanic clientele, as evidenced by lots of Latin music concerts and promotions for Mexican Independence Day. In general, Palm Springs casinos attract an older clientele and are not as flashy and loud as those in Las Vegas. The exception is the Tortoise Rock casino wasn't open at the time, which I visited in October, 2014. Most of this page was based on a visit in September, 2013. I consider this blog entry a follow up to my San Diego Trip Report of 2009, given the reasonably close proximity. After some procrastination, I finally decided to pay most of the seven casinos in and around Palm Springs a visit. Located a five-hour drive from Vegas, and only two from Los Angeles (in good traffic), there is a cluster of casinos scattered around the Coachella Valley, where Palm Springs and neighboring desert communities are found.
