Excalibur Hotel & Casino
Four pools and dinner theater for the family
About this hotel
Excalibur Hotel & Casino combines a spa with a genuinely large pool footprint spread across four separate pools, plenty of room for a family to split between a quieter section and a livelier one. Dinner theater adds an evening the kids will actually enjoy after a long pool day, a rare option that turns a family dinner into its own activity rather than a stop before bed. A hot tub rounds out the wellness side for parents wanting a wind-down soak once the kids are settled. The property leans into a lively, castle-themed energy throughout its public spaces, distinctive enough that younger kids tend to notice the architecture on arrival.

Our take
Excalibur suits a family wanting pool variety, a spa and an evening activity built in, all without leaving the property or booking a separate outing. It suits less a family wanting understated, quiet theming, since the castle motif and entertainment lineup run loud throughout the stay. Families who value that trade-off tend to leave satisfied, while those wanting something different should look elsewhere nearby.
- ✓Book dinner theater a few days ahead, since the better evening slots fill up on weekends.
- ✓Pick a quieter one of the four pools if travelling with a napping toddler in the group.
- ✓Reserve the spa for a mid-morning slot before the pool decks fill with the day's first arrivals.

Why guests love itA family of four said dinner theater solved their usual struggle of finding an evening activity that worked for both a nine-year-old and the adults, wrapped into one booking without a separate outing. Splitting spa mornings between the two parents meant pool supervision never lapsed while still getting a treatment in. Picking the quieter of the four pools kept their toddler's nap schedule intact for most of the stay.
