Another potential resort in wales

Major plans for a "world-class leisure resort" in Merthyr Tydfil which would include a ski slope and tropical water park are set to be submitted at the end of January, developers have said. The circa £300million scheme called Rhydycar West also includes plans for three hotels and around 30 woodland lodges. The project is hoped to create around 1600 jobs in the construction phase, and around 500 employment opportunities once operational.
The 575-acre site, located just off the A470, is owned by Marvel Limited and the plan is to make it one of the premier tourist destinations in the UK. Project chief operating officer Richard Arnold said the team initially hoped to submit plans to Merthyr Tydfil council in June 2022. However, following some delays, he said he was confident the plans would now be ready for submission in January 2023.

The tropical waterpark at Rhydycar West aims to "elevate the UK waterpark experience to match leading indoor waterparks in Europe and North America," according to the plans. It's intended to offer a host of attractions, including slides, tubes, a lazy river, canyon explorations, a standing wave and surf simulators.

Indoor and outdoor adventure centres will also be built if plans go ahead. Possible activities include zip wires, climbing walls, extreme slides, high ropes and more. Three hotels are proposed: a family resort wing containing 198 bedrooms, a luxury spa and fitness hotel containing 100 bedrooms, and a sport hotel with 120 bedrooms, which is the value option.

A possible casino for Uruguay?

As Uruguay debates whether to allow online casinos, a new land-based casino will soon begin to emerge. La Nación reports the project in the city of Punta del Este is getting the go-ahead after years of delay.

The initial project emerged in 2018 through the international development company Cipriani Group and received approval in 2019. Since then, the pandemic and the resulting economic downturn forced a redirection of the project.

Recently, one of the development’s backers, Egyptian businessman Naguib Sawiris, dropped out because it was taking too long. Cipriani threatened to give up as well, which may have forced officials to finally move and greenlight the project.
