Red Rock Resorts CEO Frank Fertitta denied rumors of a possible sale of the Palms last May. Palms, located on Flamingo Road just west of the Strip, has remained closed since Nevada's COVID-prompted gaming shutdown in March last year.Įven after casinos were cleared to reopen in June, Station Casinos has opted to keep the Palms dark, along with three other locals-focused properties. Vital Vegas was the first to report the sale agreement. The Tribe currently owns and operates the San Manuel Casino in Highland, California, east of San Bernardino. 'On behalf of the Tribe, we are thankful for the opportunity to join a community that we have come to know and appreciate.' 'Today represents an important step for the Tribe and its long-term economic diversification strategy,' San Manuel Chairman Ken Ramirez said in a statement.

San Manuel said in a press release it expects the sale to close later this year. The deal is subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions. Red Rock Resorts, the parent company of Station Casinos, and the Tribe both announced the sale agreement Tuesday. LAS VEGAS (KSNV) - Station Casinos has agreed to sell the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas to the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians for $650 million in cash.
