The experience

What this voyage looks like

The salon sits apart from the public casino floor with its own entrance, its own staff and a strict seat list. Stakes and format are agreed before sailing, blinds are printed for the table, and the evening runs until the last guest asks the dealer to stop. Between sessions, the salon opens onto a private terrace where the sommelier keeps a reserved section of the cellar.

  • Cash game blinds and tournament buy-ins are set privately with the host, from $100/$200 upward.
  • A dedicated dealer, cage and security detail are assigned to the salon for the entire booking.
  • Guests not holding seats relax in the adjoining terrace lounge rather than the public gaming rooms.

Formats

Three ways to run it

Browse the calendar
Format 01

Single-evening salon

One private room, one night, stakes agreed in advance. The classic salon booking for eight players.

Format 02

Salon weekend

Two evenings of cash play wrapped around a Rottnest day call, with suites held on the same deck.

Format 03

Closed invitational

A two-table tournament format for sixteen named guests with a trophy and a winner's dinner.

Flow of the evening

From gangway to final hand

A typical running order. Your producer tunes the timing to your charter length and the mood you want in the room.

Private boarding

Salon guests board through the VIP gangway ahead of general boarding, met by the host and shown the room.

First session

Cards go in the air after dinner service begins. Table-side dining runs until midnight.

Late session

The salon stays open while the table wants it. The terrace lounge serves the room until close.

Settlement and breakfast

The cage settles privately, and a hosted breakfast closes the booking before disembarkation.

They ran a serious game without any of the noise of a casino floor. The dealer never missed, and nobody outside our list knew the room existed.
