Ilani Casino Resort

Ready for a night out of gaming, dining, and dancing? The Cowlitz Tribe’s new Ilani Casino Resort—located just 20-minutes north of Vancouver off of Interstate 5—offers entertainment options guaranteed to impress everyone from dining denizens and gaming pros to concert-goers and craft drink enthusiasts. 

Meaning ‘sing,’ the name Ilani is a fitting stamp of Cowlitz culture on a world class venue. The resort boasts ground-floor views of three mountain peaks, and the heritage of the Cowlitz sings throughout the 368,000-square-foot space with salmon sculptures and a map of the tribe’s historic territory. 

Eat at Michael Jordan’s Steakhouse or Line & Lure’s cozy patio before catching a free concert at the Muze lounge. Check out upcoming events on their website. Other entertainment and retail options include a locally sourced sushi restaurant, a globally-inspired small plates bar and a women’s clothing boutique.
