Encore Boston Harbor will also place a heavy emphasis on locally inspired venues, embracing the diverse array of produce and ingredients from New England and the Atlantic waters.
Wines of the world, hard-to-find spirits and imported beers are integrated on menus, alongside local craft brewers and distillers.
Casino
The 210,000-square-foot casino is divided into two spacious sections, with high ceilings and hand-assembled red Murano glass chandeliers transplanted from their original home at Encore at Wynn Las Vegas. The first-floor features more than 3,000 slot machines, 143 table games and a casino bar centrally located at the heart of the floor beneath a grand staircase.
An 88-table Poker Room on the second floor is flanked by secluded terraces overlooking the gaming floor, offering high-end poker, VIP and private-gaming experiences.
Transportation
Through a robust water transportation system, custom-built water shuttles will transport guests year-round from Boston directly to the resort.
The low-profile European-style boats feature plush seating, gloss-varnished teak wood and a below-deck salon seating area with large hull windows and overhead skylights.
Additionally, luxury park-and-ride services will be available from select locations throughout Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and complimentary shuttle services will be offered from nearby train stations directly to Encore Boston Harbor.
