The Pool, a quarter-acre entertainment complex within the Harrah's property, was revealed today during a "splashy" ribbon cutting ceremony where more than 50 Harrah's executives and employees -- including R. Scott Barber, senior vice president and general manager of Harrah's Atlantic City and Todd Walter, chief executive officer of Red Door Spa -- took the first dip in the new 23,000-square-foot, 86,000-gallon Pool at Harrah's Atlantic City.
Located under a striking, 90-foot-high glass dome, The Pool complex is a lush, tropical oasis featuring $1 million worth of horticulture dressing an Olympic size pool, six Jacuzzis, 12 cabanas, indoor and outdoor deck areas, as well as The Pool Bar. The Pool complex will offer guests creative water-tainment both day and night with such engaging activities as "dive-in" movies, luaus, pool-side spa treatments and live musical entertainment.
To celebrate the opening of The Pool, the public ages 21 and older are invited to a Harrah's Open House over the Memorial Day weekend. During the Open House, there will be cash sales at The Pool Bar and swimming will not be permitted.
"We are thrilled to welcome guests and visitors to see The Pool at Harrah's Atlantic City over Memorial Day weekend," said R. Scott Barber, senior vice president and general manager of Harrah's Atlantic City. "The Pool complex is unlike anything else in the marketplace and it is bringing entertainment and fun in Atlantic City to an exciting new level. With the introduction of The Pool and new Red Door Spa, Harrah's certainly raises the bar in Atlantic City."
Located adjacent to The Pool complex, the new Red Door Spa -- which opens to the public on Sunday, May 27th -- spans 23,000 square feet with 23 treatment rooms including a couples deluxe suite with an in-room Jacuzzi, fireplace and shower. This well-appointed Red Door Spa offers Elizabeth Arden's comprehensive menu of world-renowned signature spa services and beauty treatments as well as several Harrah's-exclusive spa packages including Windfall Spa Experience, Bet on Red Spa Ritual and Jackpot Therapy. A menu of poolside spa services in private cabanas are also be available. Additional spa amenities include separate female and male "wet zones" complete with steam room, sauna and Jacuzzi pool surrounding a fireplace, as well as a specialty cold shower with rain, mist and turbo jet settings. A full-service fitness center overlooking the pool area can be accessed from the spa.
The first phase of Harrah's $550 million expansion project debuted in February 2007 with a new 620-seat contemporary buffet and a retail promenade offering seven unique shopping outlets. The centerpiece of Harrah's expansion project is a new 961-room, 44-story hotel tower featuring eight super-suites and 104 suites appointed with limestone floors, freestanding showers, fireplaces, in-room theaters and plasma televisions. Upon completion in 2008, the new tower will increase Harrah's hotel capacity by nearly 60 percent, offering a total of 2,272 rooms. The new tower will also make Harrah's the tallest hotel casino in Atlantic City and the second tallest building in New Jersey.
