“Our goal with the new Junkanoo Bar and the many new amenities and enhancements we’ve introduced this year is to capture the excitement, fun and island vibe that Nassau offers, and bring it into the casino to share with our guests,” said Kevin McGowen, Vice President of Marketing, Cable Beach Resorts & Crystal Palace Casino.  “We have received some great feedback on the new changes that have taken place, and are certain our guests will love the new Junkanoo Bar just as much, as it keeps players close to the action.”

  Designed with the avid gamer in mind, the new bar is positioned at the very center of the casino floor on an elevated platform that overlooks the casino’s table games, which are easily accessible from the bar.

  The Junkanoo theme doesn’t end at the new casino bar – the Crystal Palace Casino recently unveiled the Bahamas ’ first Junkanoo-themed slot machines. Located near the Passport Rewards Information Desk, the Junkanoo-themed slot machines will host gamers of the Crystal Palace Casino’s Everyone Wins! Slot Tournaments, which are currently scheduled for October 26-27, 2007.

  Guests can enjoy the new Junkanoo-themed amenities and the Crystal Palace Casino with Cable Beach Resorts’ Casino Getaway1 package, which includes a 5-day/4-night stay, with the fourth night free, a romantic dinner for two at any of the resort’s 15 restaurants and lounges, and $100 in Free Play Cash good for any of the Free Play Cash enabled slot machines at the 35,000-square-foot Crystal Palace Casino.  Package prices start at $255 per person for a four-night stay.
