About Spotlight 29 Casino

Spotlight 29 Casino opened in 1995 and operates 24 hours a day at 46-200 Harrison Place in Coachella, California, owned by the Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians. The casino offers 1,600 slot machines, 39 table games, a nightclub, and a restaurant on tribal lands in the eastern Coachella Valley.

Gaming Floor

Spotlight 29 Casino operates 1,600 slot machines and a 39-table pit. The table spread includes 3 Card Poker, Blackjack, Mini-Baccarat, and Pai Gow Poker.

Standard Blackjack anchors the main pit format.

Mini-Baccarat is the no-minimum-commission baccarat format common in Coachella Valley tribal casinos.

Pai Gow Poker rounds out the Asian-format side of the pit.

The 39-table count places Spotlight 29 in the upper tier of Coachella Valley gaming floors by table depth, though the property focuses more on the electronic slot floor than a destination table-game experience.
