Whether you prefer horse racing, dog racing, casino games, or are on the market for something different, you can find it near Hollywood Beach, and the place to stay is the Crowne Plaza Hollywood Beach Resort. Terrific amenities like flat-screen TVs with premium cable, complimentary high-speed Internet, and our sophisticated Sleep Advantage Program offer a richer stay than all other South Florida resorts. Make the upscale choice for Crowne Plaza, and you've already won. Gulfstream Park Only a mile from our Fort Lauderdale luxury hotel, The Gulfstream Park Racing & Casino is taking South Florida entertainment to its highest level. In one half you have a Vegas-style casino floor featuring the hottest slot machines, video poker games, and a newly-revamped poker room with tables for Omaha Hi-Lo, Seven-Card Stud, and the popular Texas Hold'em. In the other half you'll find some of the finest horse racing in the state. Several wagering options, including self-service machines, and a hi-tech simulcast plaza let you have a day at the races just the way you want it. Mardi Gras Gaming Another giant on the Florida gambling scene, Mardi Gras Gaming combines 70,000 square feet of festive casino action with the famous Hollywood Greyhound Track, and the Crowne Plaza is your top choice among nearby Hollywood, Florida hotels. The casino floor at Mardi Gras Gaming hosts over 1,400 slot machines and 30 poker tables open 24-hours on weekends. Along with live greyhound racing 7 days a week for most of the year, the Hollywood Greyhound Track facilities include simulcasts for greyhound, thoroughbred, and harnessed events. South Florida gambling with New Orleans flare – it's all happening at Mardi Gras Gaming. Dania Jai-Alai Like the other two, Dania Jai-Alai offers a one-stop Florida gambling experience built around a buzzing casino floor and a unique betting game. However, Dania Jai-Alai goes one step further by keeping a South Florida tradition alive with live and simulcast betting on the world's fastest ball game: Jai Alai. This variation on traditional court and racket sports from Northern Spain sets eight teams equipped with wooden bats and baskets against each other in a racquetball-style game famous for the incredible speed the ball can attain (up to 180 miles per hour). Much like horse and dog racing, betters may wager on which competitor they expect to come out on top. Simulcasting of horse and dog racing events are also featured at Dania Jai-Alai. For all the South Florida gambling entertainment you desire, visit Hollywood Beach and stay at one of the top Ft. Lauderdale, Florida hotels – the Crowne Plaza Hollywood Beach Resort. |
