The most prestigious entertainment for adults in Deauville is going to the casino. Most of the visitors here are French millionaires of retirement age, who have nothing to lose a couple or three thousand euros a night. The casino building is a huge snow-white palace in the Empire style. Hall and halls are decorated with marble floors, staircases with gilded railings and crystal chandeliers. 24 gaming tables are covered with scarlet cloth.
What is unusual: croupiers at the tables do not stand, and sit. Entrance to the casino is free, minimum bet on roulette is 1 EUR. You can also try your luck on one of 325 slot machines: from modern "one-armed bandits" to ancient poker machines. It is said that one visitor managed to win as much as 200000 EUR!
Casino is the center of Deauville nightlife. The aristocratic public is not in the mood to dance at foam parties or rock out at auto-parties. Night bars and pubs work at some hotels. And on weekends (in summer - daily) one of the most pathos nightclubs in Deauville and all France - Le Regine's - opens its doors. The establishment is not for "mere mortals". There is a strict dress code and face control. And if the club is frequented by Hollywood stars, it is closed to ordinary tourists.
Among other entertainments there are six golf and polo courses, as well as Algotherm Thalassotherapy Center. Here you can undergo a course of seaweed treatment, cryo- and pressotherapy, take a pearl bath, do gymnastics in the pool or simply work out on exercise machines.
