FAQs

  • While we welcome children and teens to Meeples at Sea with open arms, please understand that the vast majority of our attendees each year are adults.

    Additionally, Meeples at Sea offers the Celebrity Classic Beverage Package and Basic Wi-Fi Unlimited as part of the base cruise fare. BGG and Dice Tower sail exclusively on Royal Caribbean, which charges substantially more for these same items.

    Our conference rooms also feature floor-to-ceiling windows, providing our guests with a nice view of the ocean (or the port of call).

    Finally, our conventions at sea are always capped, ensuring that no more than 100 guests are permitted per convention.
