Casino as part of VIP tourism

Why does a VIP guest fly here

Saint Kitts and Nevis form the "short shoulder" of Caribbean luxury infrastructure: SKB International Airport with VIP Meet & Greet and fast-track services, Christophe Harbor Marina superyacht module with accelerated customs clearance, duty-free Port Zanté cluster and resorts 5. Against this background, the casino becomes a natural part of the evening leisure of high-end guests.

Flagship for high-rollers: Royal Beach Casino (Marriott, Frigate Bay)

Scale and status. One of the largest and most modern casinos in the Caribbean, ~ 35,000 sq ft at St. Kitts Marriott Resort in Frigate Bay.

Game floor. 200 + slots on the floor; "one of the biggest picks" of live tables in the region. Lows on blackjack from $5 (range up to $100).

Formats for groups/VIPs. The casino offers custom gaming nights and tournaments (including blackjack/Texas Hold'em) for events and corporate events - a convenient option for closed groups.

Resort ecosystem. On site - restaurants, bars and SKY Ultra Lounge; guests combine beach/golf/spa during the day and play in the evening.

💡 The travel agency emphasizes the size and level of Royal Beach Casino and mentions participation in super high-roller formats (in the context of WPT). This supports the positioning of the site as a point of attraction for the premium segment.

Where the VIP client lives: resorts and marina

St. Kitts Marriott Resort (Frigate Bay). Beach Resort at Royal Beach Casino; a "room-to-table" bundle without logistics around the city.

Park Hyatt St. Kitts (Christophe Harbour). Ultra-luxury accommodation in the southeast of the island, next to the superyacht community; there are suites with private pools.

Four Seasons Resort Nevis. "Quiet Luxury" 15-20 minutes by speedboat from St. Kitts; a popular base for privacy-oriented guests (golf/beach).

Christophe Harbour Marina. A deep-sea marina for superyachts with VIP immigration and customs clearance on site is a seamless entrance to the island for yachting guests.

Port Zanté (Basseterre). Duty-free brands and gastronomy at the cruise terminal; convenient "evening circle" before or after the game.

Typical VIP Day Scenarios

1. Jet → Resort → Casino. Arrival at SKB with VIP escort → check-in at Marriott/Park Hyatt → dinner and evening at Royal Beach Casino live tables.

2. Superyacht → Marina → Fine Dining → Tables. Mooring at Christophe Harbour with expedited clearance → author's dinner → game (or transfer to Frigate Bay).

3. Privacy-oriented Nevis. In the afternoon - beach/golf on Nevis (Four Seasons), in the evening - private dinner; optional - a boat to St. Kitts for a casino session.

What a premium guest values at local casinos

Live tables "Las Vegas style." Regional benchmark for the number and variety of tables at Royal Beach Casino; convenient lows for "warming up."

Slot park with classics and video poker. The library of 200 + games provides a great choice for a "casual" session between dinner and long drinks.

Event-friendly approach. Individual tournaments/evenings for groups and VIP clients simplify MICE scenarios (team builds, closed events).

Integration with luxury services. Golf, spa, author's cuisine, bar lounges and duty-free shopping are available in one radius.

VIP Guest Best Practices

Arrival logistics. For flights in SKB, choose Meet & Greet/Fast Track: saves time on passport control and baggage. For yachts - entry through Christophe Harbor with VIP decoration on site.

Location selection.

"Gaming hub" and convenience - Marriott @ Frigate Bay (step up to casino).

"Calm luxury" - Park Hyatt St. Kitts (suites with pools) or Four Seasons Nevis (privacy, golf).

Time for tables. Better limits and fewer queues - before prime time and on weekdays; Discuss high-limit sessions with the host service in advance. (Min. rates reference: $5- $100 on blackjack).

Combo evening. Shopping and aperitivo at Port Zanté → dinner at the resort → live tables/slots → cocktails at SKY Ultra Lounge.
