Why Nexira
Nexira is the Netherlands' definitive guide to casino resorts — born from a passion for exceptional hospitality and a commitment to responsible, informed entertainment.
Every resort in our guide is hand-selected by our editorial team against strict criteria for luxury, service, and gaming experience.
All featured establishments hold valid KSA (Kansspelautoriteit) licences, ensuring full compliance with Dutch gaming regulations.
Unbiased, editorial assessments drawn from real visits. We rate atmosphere, cuisine, service, and gaming floors with equal rigour.
"True luxury is not loud — it is felt in the weight of every detail,
the warmth of every welcome, the thrill of every moment."

The Experience
Gaming
Step into gaming salons where tradition meets modernity. From classic roulette and baccarat to private poker rooms — each hall is designed to exhilarate.
Wellness
Restore body and mind in world-class spa sanctuaries. Thermal pools, signature treatments, and serene retreats complete the resort experience.
Gastronomy
Michelin-starred chefs, sommeliers, and curated tasting menus elevate every evening into a culinary event worthy of the finest European traditions.
Our Philosophy
The casino resort tradition is one of Europe's great contributions to the art of hospitality — a place where the pleasures of leisure, gastronomy, wellness, and the thrill of chance converge in architectural splendour.
In the Netherlands, this tradition has found a uniquely sophisticated expression. Under the watchful eye of the Kansspelautoriteit, Dutch casino resorts offer guests an experience that is at once world-class and responsibly managed — where enjoyment and integrity are equally prized.

Guide
The Netherlands occupies a unique position in Europe's casino landscape. Unlike neighbouring countries with fragmented markets, the Dutch gaming sector operates under the consolidated brand of Holland Casino — a state-owned enterprise whose fourteen locations across the country are each distinctive in character while unified by a commitment to responsible, elegant entertainment.
Since the liberalisation introduced by the Wet Kansspelen op Afstand (KOA) in 2021, the Dutch market has evolved significantly. Today, visitors to casino resorts enjoy world-class facilities within a framework that prioritises consumer protection, transparency, and harm prevention — standards that Nexira wholeheartedly endorses.
Amsterdam's flagship casino is a destination in its own right. Located on the Max Euweplein, steps from Leidseplein, it welcomes guests with an expansive gaming floor featuring European and American roulette, blackjack in multiple variants, baccarat, and an extensive array of slot machines and electronic table games.
The property's restaurant, Lido, has earned considerable attention for its contemporary Dutch cuisine — sustainable ingredients sourced from regional producers, presented with technical precision and genuine warmth. The cocktail bar, situated above the gaming floor, offers an exceptional selection of Dutch jenever spirits alongside international classics.
Rotterdam's casino reflects its city's design-forward character. Occupying a prime position near Weena, the property draws a cosmopolitan clientele — business travellers, design professionals, and international visitors drawn by the city's acclaimed architectural heritage and gastronomic scene.
The poker room hosts regular open tournaments and invited private events, making Rotterdam a focal point for serious players in the western Netherlands. The adjacent brasserie provides an ideal setting for pre-game dining or post-evening conversation.
Perhaps the most atmospheric of all Dutch casino properties, Scheveningen combines the timeless elegance of a grand seaside resort with the excitement of a full-service casino. Set on the famous Scheveningen promenade, the evening panorama across the North Sea is genuinely breathtaking.
Its event programme — regular live music, themed evenings, and an annual poker series — ensures Scheveningen is never merely a casino, but a social and cultural event. For guests staying in the adjacent luxury hotels, the resort experience extends around the clock.
The Netherlands has developed one of Europe's most sophisticated frameworks for responsible gambling. The CRUKS self-exclusion register, administered by the KSA, allows individuals to voluntarily exclude themselves from all licensed gambling providers across the country — both online and land-based.
At every Holland Casino property, trained staff are on hand to provide information about responsible gambling tools, deposit limits, and self-exclusion options. Nexira encourages all visitors to familiarise themselves with these resources and to approach gaming as a form of leisure — always within personal means and limits.
You must be 18 years or older. Valid EU identification or passport is required at entrance.

Smart casual is required at most properties. Sportswear and flip-flops are not permitted.
