Wynn Palace resort is set to open on August 22, according to an announcement made by Wynn Macau yesterday.
“The company expects that the opening of Wynn Palace will help launch a new era of prosperity for Macau, attracting more international tourists to the city and further supporting its development as a world center for tourism and leisure,” the statement reads. It adds that the resort has started accepting room reservations.
The announcement follows the postponement on the opening of Wynn’s newest casino in Macau, which is currently under construction in the Cotai Strip.
In November 2015, Wynn Resorts Ltd. said the opening of Wynn Palace would be postponed by three months to June 25, 2016, because of construction delays. The general contractor, Leighton Holdings Ltd., notified Wynn at that time that it couldn’t complete the Wynn Palace by the previously announced March date.
According to plans disclosed previously, the Wynn Palace will feature 1,700 hotel rooms, a lake with gondolas and fountains, meeting spaces, a casino, a spa, stores and food-and-beverage outlets. This is the first resort in the Cotai area for the company. MDT/Bloomberg
