when you think New York, inevitably Manhattan, Brooklyn, Times Square or Central Park are some of the first names that come to mind. But the state has so much more to offer than cities filled with skyscrapers, shopping malls or Broadway shows. About 150 kilometers from the Big Apple, less than two hours by car, we find the so-called Catskill region, rich in nature, mountains and landscapes to enjoy in the open air. And there, in the midst of a setting of absolute peace and relaxation, the Resorts World Catskills welcomes us.
The route to Monticello is fantastic, with a highway surrounded by trees, bushes and various vegetation, in an environment that becomes mountainous as we arrive at our destination.
The complex offers a more than attractive combination for tourists and locals, since it has one of the few casinos located in the state of New York, with more than 10,000 square meters dedicated to action, with more than 150 table games . 1,600 slot machines, a poker room, private games and a bookmaker.
The luxurious hotel located within the Resorts World Catskills, has more than 330 suites spread over the 18 floors of the fully glazed building that stands out against the horizon.
Each of the oversized bedrooms has expansive floor to ceiling windows, offering expansive views of the Catskills Mountains.
The suites are so spacious and comfortable that there is enough space for a desk and sofa, as well as a large bathroom with a full complement of amenities.
If we think about the proposals for relaxation, the Crystal Life Spa also has various treatments, two heated indoor pools and two gyms.
Added to this are ten gastronomic experiences in bars and restaurants. From a typical American breakfast, to restaurants specializing in meat and pasta, to others with oriental or Mexican cuisine.
We will also have Epicenter, an immense function room with a capacity of 2,500, which can be customized for both large recitals and private events, including weddings.
And if you want to immerse yourself in the culture of the area, there’s nothing better than visiting the Bethel Woods museum, opened to the public in 2008, located at the top of the hill where the Woodstock festival was held in 1969, commemorating all that that happened in that decade, retracing the history of fashion, music, society and the arts, in a didactic and captivating way.
For all the hotel’s proposals, VIP clients have at their disposal the service of a butler, a chauffeur and even a private helipad.
Undoubtedly, New York is much more than shopping malls, museums, theater shows. And a stay at Resorts World Catskills will allow us to enjoy a region that also has a lot of nature, places to ski in the winter and a casino all year round. What else? Here we are.
