Pricing
These are general estimates. The specific minimums for your sailing will be posted at each table in the casino. Tournament availability, rules, and prizes can vary for each cruise. You will need to check the daily schedule on board for specific details.
Attire
Smart casual attire, such as collared shirts and slacks for men or blouses and pants/dresses for women, is recommended for the casino. Avoid beachwear, flip-flops, or overly casual clothing like tank tops after 6:00 PM.
How to reserve
You cannot pre-purchase casino credits for a Holland America cruise. Casino play is an on-board activity that must be paid for while the casino is open.
How to purchase
Once on board, you have several options to obtain funds for gaming. You can use your stateroom keycard to charge funds directly to your onboard account at slot machines and some table games. A portion of the funds you charge to your room from a credit card may be considered a cash advance, and your credit card company may charge a fee. You can also bring cash to use directly at the tables or to exchange for chips at the casino cage. Any winnings or unspent funds can be cashed out at the casino cage before the end of your cruise.
Age restrictions
The minimum age to enter and gamble in the casino on a Holland America cruise ship is **18 years of age**. This rule is strictly enforced for all gaming activities, including table games and slot machines. Guests who are under 18 are not permitted to be in the casino while it is open for gambling, even to simply observe.
