A 2,800-seat entertainment venue is set to be completed next year. The tribe this year expanded the casino to include more than 6,500 slot machines, an additional high-limit gaming room, three shops and new bars and restaurants.

The hotel represents the second of a three-phase expansion project. The hotel will feature 432 guest rooms, 127 of which will be suites, a pool deck with seven private cabanas and more food options. Yaamava’ Resort’s new name debuted ahead of the property’s new 17-floor hotel, expected to open in December. The $650-million sale is expected to close later this year. In May, the tribe announced it had struck a deal with Red Rock Resorts to buy the Palms off-Strip resort in Las Vegas. “We are immensely grateful to our tribal citizens, the thousands of San Manuel team members and millions of valued guests over the years, all of whom helped make this moment possible.” “Today marks a new chapter of rebirth and boundless potential, so we have given our property a new name - Yaamava’ - the Serrano word for ‘spring,’” San Manuel Band of Mission Indians Chairman Ken Ramirez said in a written statement. The San Manuel Entertainment Authority said the property’s new name and logo - yucca plant fronds in a Y-shaped, woven-basket pattern - pay homage to the San Manuel Band’s ancestral lands and people. The tribe is reintroducing its San Manuel Casino in Highland, California, as Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel, the casino’s operating group announced Friday. The San Manuel Band of Mission Indians is rebranding its flagship casino as the tribe eyes future growth.
