So, what makes our cruise casino so special?

  • Admin

Casinos in movies aren’t always the most relaxing places. Maybe they’re the setting of a James Bond film, where Bond — in a debonair but decidedly uncomfortable suit — is engaged in a life-or-death poker match, wiping beads of sweat from his brow. Maybe they’re the backdrop of a heist movie, where millions of dollars are at stake and every character looks paranoid. Even in buddy comedies, like Swingers, casinos aren’t exactly temples of relaxation. But our cruise casino is different.

Cruise casino experience

You might be playing the same games at sea as you are on land, but there’s something about watching the water drift by out the window that makes all the stress wash away. There’s also something about wearing a tank top and sandals, rather than a Bond-esque suit, that brings the anxiety level down a few notches. Our cruise ship casino isn’t an exclusive Monte Carlo experience — it’s an inclusive gaming experience that’s designed to capture the fun and thrills of Vegas without sacrificing ExclusiveDealPicks casual atmosphere.

What to expect at our casino

Even if you’re not a gambler, just strolling down the rows of slot machines and checking out all the different themes can be a fun way to kill some time. And if you are a gambler — well, buckle up, because we’ve got game variety in spades (sometimes literally).

Electronic slot machines

We’ve got 115 slot machines on our gaming floor — 104 on the main floor and 11 in the smoking room — that range from traditional slots to multi-line and even video poker. We stay as up-to-date as possible on the latest games so there’s always something new to try out, whether it be Lightning Link, Buffalo Gold, Adventure Alley, or Little Asia. You could easily spend a whole day losing yourself in the immersive electronic worlds of our slot machines (not that we’d, you know, recommend that).

Table games

If simply pulling a lever or pushing a button isn’t quite enough stimulation for you, there’s nothing like playing blackjack on cruise ships. Well, except poker, craps, Texas Hold ‘em, and roulette, of course. We’ve got it all. Here’s a breakdown of all the games we offer: blackjack, single deck blackjack, craps, three-card poker, Ultimate Texas Hold’em, baccarat, and double zero & single zero roulette.

Complimentary casino gaming lessons

If you’re scratching your head about what those words even mean, don’t worry. We have seasoned gaming pros on hand to show you the ropes. That’s the beauty of our cruise casino vs. a typical Vegas casino — we want to give you the best chance to win. That’s why, on embarkation day, we offer complimentary gaming lessons on the casino floor. You’ll learn the ins and outs of games like craps, poker, blackjack, and the best ways of tilting the odds in your favor.

You might win, you might lose, but you'll have fun

But like most games, it’s not really about winning (though that’s obviously the goal), it’s about having fun and maybe even meeting new friends. Nothing brings people together like going on a 7’s streak in craps, or cheering on the guy next to you as he doubles down a huge blackjack bet. So wear your lucky socks and walk into the casino with cautious optimism. You might win, you might lose, but the real victory is meeting and connecting with fellow cautious optimists. You might make a voyage-long friend. After all, the casino has a bar and cigar lounge – so it’s easy to segue into a more social setting.
