Estoril Sol Casino Review

Introduction

Estoril Sol Casino caters exclusively to Portuguese players, although it is open to the world and international bettors who are offered premium sportsbook and casino experience.

The casino, licensed under local jurisdiction of Portugal (Servico de Regulacao e Inspecao de Jogos), was opened in 2017 and its interface offers this country’s native language as well as English in its interface.

While on the subject of website design…

…it went with a full-blown casino color palette – black with gold accents which makes all the content element pop just right.

Essentially:

It’s a decent-looking site with a very simple menu made with user experience in mind and a no-nonsense landing page that gives punters exactly the depth of info they need when encountering the casino for the first time.

However, the lack of some pretty important info in some later stages is sometimes unsettling. For instance, there is no info on wagering requirements in general Terms and Conditions and the site’s bonus page is, most of the times, faulty.

With that said…

…the welcome offer at this casino is as generous as it gets: casino users get a no deposit bonus AND a bonus on their first deposit to play with. There’s something in it for sportsbook users as well – the too get a welcome bonus that gives them free bets.

There’s not much else in terms of promotions, except for the lovely friend referral option, and a few promotions reserved for Portuguese players.

A minimum deposit and withdrawal amount at this casino is quite favorable and the selection of sports to bet on in the sportsbook is quite good.

Tip:  This casino has a demo/free play mode available for testing the games before playing for real money.

Games

Originally, Estoril Sol only had games contributed by EGT and Gaming 1…

…but this has since expanded, and now you are going to encounter the games by the likes of NetEnt and other iGaming heavyweights.

There is, however, a very small variety of table games while live dealer games are nowhere to be found, sadly.

Slot games - Burning Hot, 40 Super Hot, Boost Racers, Mojo Spin, Luck Ness, Secrets of Atlantis, Theme Park: Tickets of Fortune, Warlords: Crystals of Power, Egypt Sky, Twin Spin, Fakir Slot, Reel Rush, Pyramid: Quest for Immortality, Neon Staxx, Starburst, Dead or Alive, Aloha! Cluster Pays, Gonzo’s Quest, Reel Rush, Dazzle Me, Amazon Fierce, Olympus Evolution, Cash of Lords, Pearl Tracker, Plasma Fusion…

Table games – Blackjack, Roulette.

Sportsbook – Soccer, basketball, tennis, ice hockey, baseball, handball, volleyball, beach soccer, cycling, futsal, darts, badminton, cricket, floorball, rugby, motorsport, winter sports, snooker, table tennis…

Mobile Overview

Estoril Sol Casino is fully responsive for operating on portable devices such as smartphones and tablets…

…because that is the main requirement of the XXI century website, with more and more users using mobile phones to access sites. But what sets this casino apart is that it has its own app!

This is especially useful since this casino has a sportsbook. The app is downloadable for both iOS and Android devices. Of course, same as the desktop site, promos and bonuses are there for the taking on mobile version as well.

Both the app and the “regular” mobile version are made with user experience being a top priority and have all the functionality as the desktop version.

Mobile Games

The above applies to games as well. The entire suite of slots, blackjack and roulette games is playable on mobile app. While using the sportsbook is a true pleasure.

Loyalty Program

Casino’s VIP scheme is called Club In…

…and this VIP experience works by awarding a point for every EUR 10 wagered. When a player accumulates 1000 points, these can be redeemed for EUR 10 in bonus cash. As you keep progressing on the loyalty ladder, you will be allowed to collect more points.

Conclusion

All in all, the general feeling of Estoril Sol Casino is that of slight disappointment. Sure, the welcome offers are quite decent and there is a sportsbook. But it doesn’t make up for a very small variety of games and some pretty unclear conditions of playing here.

The banking methods are plentiful enough, that’s for sure…

…but there is a lack of info on withdrawal terms, as well as bonus terms, which is even more important.

Also, T&Cs – generally lacking in important info – state that a hefty fee may be applied to some transactions, which is pretty bad, of course.

There is a general feeling of scarcity of info wherever you look. Even the usually very helpful FAQ section isn’t THAT helpful here. Oh and speaking of help – the support is reachable only via messaging and email – no phone support or proper live support is available.

VIP plan could provide some more exclusive perks as well, instead of just redeemable points. But, as it stands, there is a lot of space for improvement in Estoril Sol – let’s hope that the improvement does take place at some point.
