Too bad because it is a beautiful building (the second tallest in NJ I’m told) and interior is impressive. Another nail in the coffin is, it is the northern most casino on the boards and the now defunct Show Boat is between it and the newly (5 billion dollar) renovated Hard Rock. The summer season here is, at most, 12 weeks and the beach in front of the casino is only about 30 feet wide.
If they think that the beach is going to draw people they are badly mistaken. A bit of free slot play would have been nice or a show or promotion or two. They never offered any comped rooms like Hard Rock or established a website to inform their card holders as to any inducements to come there to play. īut back to Ocean… Their website is useless as far as a loyalty card information source. Which was the coconscious till now, unless the purchase by MGM sparks some interest in saving Bally’s after they buyout Caesars Entertainment. So here is what we think…Ocean Resort Casino will likely be the next casino to close, before Bally’s. So they demoted us! We would have made an attempt to use it if there was any hint from them that it was in peril. Since the time we got the Black Card we didn’t find the time to use Ocean’s much.
We originally qualified because they honored Hard Rock’s Rock Royalty Card. We went back to Ocean Casino to get a replacement for our Black Card and were told that we are no longer eligible for Black Card status.
