Jamaica’s first casino is expected to open for business in 2025, a government official indicated [last] week.

It’s to be built by the Princess hotel chain at its resort complex that’s under development in Hanover. The gambling house is a key component of the second phase of the resort project.

“If all goes according to plan, we expect that the casino at Princess Grand Jamaica will be open mid to late 2025,” said Delano Seiveright, senior adviser and strategist in the Ministry of Tourism.

“They are going through the motions, which are particularly robust and highly detailed. And we are keeping our fingers crossed that they will move to add another 1,000 rooms to the property thereafter, bringing the resort up to over 2,000 rooms,” he said.
