Pricing
$1 - $2 per play
The arcade on your Margaritaville ship features a small selection of video games (think classic and modern titles like racing or shooters), but it’s not free-to-play. Games typically range from $1–$2 per play, payable via your stateroom keycard, which you swipe at the machines. No unlimited-play package is advertised, so expect to spend $5–$20 for a decent session, depending on how long your kid wants to game.
Attire
The Arcade venue on your Margaritaville cruise ship has the following recommended dress attire: Casual kids’ clothes—shorts, T-shirts, sneakers, or sandals. Swimsuits with cover-ups work if they’re pool-bound. Teens might go for trendy casual (jeans, graphic tees).
How to reserve
There’s no strict age restriction for the arcade itself, making it open to all ages, including kids, teens, and adults. On Islander, it’s part of a lounge with teen-focused activities (like karaoke), but the arcade games are accessible to everyone.
