Scarlet Pearl Casino

Scarlet Pearl Casino Resort is a casino and hotel in D'Iberville, Mississippi.

The resort has 300 hotel rooms, 68,000 square feet (6,300 m2) of gaming space, and amenities including a 36-hole miniature golf course, a buffet, and three other restaurants.[1]

The project, originally named the Can Can Casino Resort and Spa, gained site approval from the Mississippi Gaming Commission in February 2010,[2] but development stalled because of the Great Recession.[3] Revised plans for the casino, by now known as the Scarlet Pearl, were approved by the commission in December 2013.[4] Groundbreaking was held in July 2014.[5] The property opened on December 9, 2015, at a cost of $290 million.[1]
