However, don't let that fact scare you away the South Point and El Cortez are as different as night and day.īesides housing a large casino and hotel, the South Point offers bingo, a 60-lane bowling alley, a 16-screen movie theatre, and a large equestrian arena/events center. Shortly after that opening, in October 2006, South Point was acquired by the Gaughn family, owners of the El Cortez. When it opened, it had a striking resemblance to its sister property at the time, the Suncoast. It opened in December 2005 and was known at first as the South Coast.
The South Point is a large casino in the south part of Las Vegas that caters to economy-minded visitors and neighborhood locals.
