TUCSON, AZ / AGILITYPR.NEWS / May 15, 2026 / The only Tucson-based property on the list, Casino Del Sol's placement reflects voter-driven recognition of its full-scale resort offering and regional market strength

TUCSON, AZ — May 20, 2026 — Casino Del Sol has been named one of Arizona's Top 10 Casinos in the 2026 edition of Ranking Arizona, Arizona's largest and most comprehensive statewide business opinion poll. The property ranks as the only Tucson-based casino represented on the list, a distinction that speaks to its competitive positioning within a market dominated by Phoenix-area and metropolitan-adjacent properties.

Ranking Arizona, published by AZ Big Media, bases its rankings entirely on public vote, asking participants a single question: with whom would you recommend doing business? For a full-scale resort competing across gaming, hospitality, dining and entertainment categories, placement on a consumer-driven list of this nature carries meaningful weight as a third-party indicator of brand strength and guest loyalty.

"This recognition matters because it comes directly from the public — the guests and community members who choose to spend their time and their dollars with us," said Casino Del Sol Interim CEO Amanda Lomayesva. "For a property like ours, where the experience spans gaming, dining, live entertainment and hospitality, earning that kind of broad-based endorsement reflects the strength of everything we've built here."

Casino Del Sol's inclusion, and its standing as the sole Southern Arizona representative in the category, highlights the property's ability to draw and retain a loyal guest base despite significant geographic distance from the state's largest population centers. The resort's full amenity portfolio, which spans gaming, hotel, food and beverage, sportsbook, golf, and headline entertainment at AVA Amphitheater, positions it as a true destination resort rather than a regional convenience play.

The 2026 Ranking Arizona recognition adds to an established portfolio of third-party endorsements for Casino Del Sol, which holds Forbes Four Star and AAA Four Diamond designations and has been recognized among the Best Hotels in Arizona by U.S. News & World Report. With Casino Del Sol Vahi Taa'am slated to open in November 2026, the property's footprint and market presence are set to expand further.
