Sun Monticello,[1] formerly Monticello Grand Casino, is a casino and hotel, situated in Mostazal, Chile.
History

The casino was severely damaged by the 2010 Chile earthquake, and was closed for five months due to reparations valued in USD 10 million.[5] As a result, it remained closed until July 30 of that year. After its reopening, it received 25,000 visitors in five days.[6]
