St Kitts / Casinos

St Kitts boasts one of the largest casinos in the Caribbean in Marriott’s Royal Beach Casino and with the reopening of the Royal St Kitts Casino, the island is one of the area’s main players for gambling. You will also find slot machines in a couple of bars and even in the airport departure lounge, where a row of them will allow you to while away the time between delays.

Island Rhythms, Basseterre - An entertainment venue with a casino-style gaming room which has around 50 video gaming terminals, a restaurant, bar and lounge. Caribbean atmosphere and a popular ‘liming’ spot with young locals for karaoke nights and its range of music for dancing.
