Changed name from FIESTA HOTEL CASINO to FIESTA RANCHO when Station Casinos bought Fiesta in 2002.
In Las Vegas history, the Fiesta is the first casino the Maloof family owned. It also is the first hotel/casino in North Las Vegas. George Maloof Jr. was the person who had the idea for the family to have a casino in Las Vegas. He is the former owner of the Sacramento Kings and Monarchs. For the Fiesta, the idea was to put a casino away from the Las Vegas Strip near neighborhoods that had higher income levels and property values. The cost for the Fiesta was somewhere between 25 to 35 million dollars. It opened on December 14, 1994. The theme for the resort was Mexican.
