  • Best Known For: Rio Carnival-themed design and comedy shows
  • Number of Slots: 270+
  • Number of Table games: 13 tables

  • Currencies Accepted: ZAR

The Rio Casino Resort is the only casino outside China and the U.S. to break into the top 10 list of the biggest casinos in the world, with around 270,000 sq ft of gaming floor space. However, despite its massive footprint, it only offers about 270 slot machines and 13 table games.

This is mainly because the original design focused on creating big open spaces to match the Rio Carnival theme, prioritizing atmosphere and visual scale rather than packing the floor with games. On top of that, South African gambling regulations also limit the number of gaming machines and table games that can be licensed.

Alongside its casino floor, the resort offers on-site accommodation, several dining options, bars and lounges, although its hotel inventory is modest compared to many major integrated resorts, with under 100 rooms and just three restaurants.

There is also a dedicated events and convention centre capable of hosting conferences, exhibitions, banquets and corporate functions. In addition to gaming and events, the resort has built a strong reputation as one of South Africa’s notable comedy venues, regularly hosting stand-up nights featuring both well-known local talent and international touring comedians.

Rio Casino Resort leans heavily into its carnival theme, and when it launched, there was a literal Samba Carnival parade on opening night, complete with dancers, floats and drum troupes flown in specifically to match the Rio de Janeiro theme.

#10: MGM Coati,China (200,000 ft²)

  • Built: 2018

MGM Cotai debuted in 2018 and quickly became one of the more recognisable developments on the Cotai Strip thanks to its layered, jewellery-box inspired exterior. The casino floor spans roughly 300,000 sq ft and features around 1,500 slot machines and approximately 200 table games, with baccarat remaining the core draw for premium mass and higher-tier play.

One of MGM Cotai’s most distinctive elements is the Spectacle, a vast central atrium lined with huge LED walls that continuously cycle curated visual art. The MGM Theater is another highlight, designed with transformable seating and staging configurations for different show formats.

The resort also offers close to 1,400 rooms and suites, multiple restaurants, cocktail lounges, retail shops, wellness facilities, and regularly hosts a mix of cultural events, special entertainment programming, and even Masters-level tennis exhibitions.

Our Final Thoughts

WinStar World Casino Resort comfortably sits at the top of the list as the largest casino in the world when measured by gaming floor size and total number of games offered. Other mega-resorts may excel in specific categories, for example, The Venetian Macau has more table games, while Foxwoods is home to one of the largest bingo venues on the planet — but all of these massive properties deliver an enormous mix of gaming options along with world-class non-gaming amenities such as water attractions, concert arenas, luxury dining, live sports events, art installations and themed entertainment.

Interestingly, when comparing these huge land-based properties to the top new online casinos, many of the best online platforms now offer a bigger total selection of games, especially when it comes to slots and live dealer variants. The trade-off, of course, is that digital casinos lack the atmosphere, the resort-style amenities, the physical scale and the full destination experience that you get at these enormous in-person casino resorts.
