Tulalip tribe plans destination resort

WASHINGTON -- As reported by the Snohomish County Bureau: "The Tulalip Tribes long have anticipated the new international destination resort being built at Quil Ceda Village. The Tulalip Casino became a highly successful gamble for the tribes, but they always knew the casino alone wasn't enough to support Quil Ceda Village on its own, even with its 2,000 gaming machines, 50 table games, a Championship Poker room and live music and comedy in the Canoes Cabaret.

"Adding the 100-store Seattle Premium Outlets mall at the north end of the village helped, too, as well as bringing celebrity entertainers to the 2,400-seat outdoor amphitheater. But those weren't enough of a boost to create the kind of major attraction the tribes needed.

"Next June, all of that will change. After two years of construction, the $130 million, 12-story, 363-room multi-star luxury hotel, spa and convention center will put the final piece in place for that international resort when its doors swing open. For the soft opening in early June, at least one floor of rooms will be open, with 200 rooms ready by the end of June.

"...With the presence of the luxury hotel and convention center, with a landscaped oasis pool that doubles as a venue for receptions and weddings, a large ballroom with breakout rooms, a destination day spa, a garden terrace, new restaurants and one of the region's largest and most successful casinos, the new Tulalip Casino Resort becomes a global magnet for recreation and entertainment..."
