The goal was to create an upscale experience that was close to home for New Mexicans, while encompassing Southwestern pride and culture for out-of-state visitors. Now there are approximately 25 tribal casinos in the state, including Sandia. Owned and operated by the Pueblo of Sandia, it was the very first Indian casino in New Mexico at its opening.
Since it first opened in 1994, The Sandia Resort and Casino has undergone extensive developments to its property to provide a truly all-inclusive and luxurious experience for visitors. The Sandia Resort and Casino is situated on the Northeast corner of Interstate 25 and Tramway Road in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
