Luxury cruise line Crystal has announced a new partnership with Monte-Carlo Societe des Bains de Mer (SBM) to introduce the first Casino de Monte-Carlo at sea. The collaboration aims to bring high-end gaming experiences to Crystal's oceangoing vessels, starting with Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity.
The new casino will debut on Crystal Symphony during the Chairman's Cruise departing from Venice on November 14, followed by Crystal Serenity in December. The gaming facility will also be featured on Crystal's future oceangoing ships, excluding expedition vessels.
"We are excited to join forces with Crystal to deliver the unique Casino de Monte-Carlo experience at sea," said Stephane Valeri, chairman of the board and CEO of Monte-Carlo SBM. "With our combined expertise, we are confident that we will provide a gaming moment unlike any other in the cruise industry."
The Casino de Monte-Carlo will occupy over 1,000 square feet on both Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony, replacing the current Bridge Lounges. The Bridge Lounge will be relocated to the Library on Crystal Serenity and The Lounge (previously the casino) on Crystal Symphony.
The new casinos will offer a variety of gaming activities, including slot machines, blackjack and roulette.
