The hotel and its location

Grand Sapphire Resort & Casino is a resort with its own casino in the Long Beach area of İskele (Trikomo), on the east coast of Northern Cyprus. The long sandy shore of Long Beach is a short drive away. Courtyard Long Beach is a few minutes' walk from the resort, and Caesar Resort & Spa and Sea Life Hotel are close neighbours a little further along.

At a resort-casino it helps to arrive at the right door: your driver brings you straight to the main entrance by reception, so you can check in without wheeling your luggage around the grounds. For the return trip, meet the driver at the same main entrance at the agreed time, and the fixed price you booked covers the whole journey back to Ercan Airport (ECN).
