What to Wear: A Gentle Guide to Casino Dress Codes

Smart casual means different things in different rooms. Here's how our venue reads it, floor by floor.

The dining room

Smart casual, with the collar preferred after 6pm. Think what you'd wear to a good restaurant — because that's what it is. The signature room skews slightly dressier on weekends; the terrace stays relaxed all night.

Guests arriving at the evening entrance

The gaming floor

Neat casual works — clean shoes, no beachwear after 8pm. Nobody needs a jacket; everybody benefits from looking like they meant to be here. Tournament nights at the card room are famously come-as-you-are within that range.

"Dress for the last room you plan to be in, not the first."

The suites

Private spaces mean private standards — your party sets the tone. That said, a suite evening tends to pull people toward cocktail attire, and the photos always justify it.

What to leave behind

Singlets, thongs and high-vis workwear stay on the beach side of the door after 8pm. Hats come off inside. And the one rule we never bend: guests must be 18+ on the gaming floor, whatever they're wearing.

Key takeaways

  • Collars preferred in the dining room after 6pm
  • Neat casual covers the gaming floor
  • Suites set their own tone
  • 18+ on the gaming floor, always

When in doubt

Dress for the last room you plan to be in, not the first. If the night might end in the lounge, the extra ten minutes at the wardrobe is worth it.
