Experience the Village

The Shops at the Row is Ocean Casino Resort’s retail mecca. From delightful drinks to premium fashion and our own branded accessories, you can get it all within our walls. During the holidays, however, we kick the seasonal spirit into overdrive.

To mark the occasion, The Shops at the Row are transforming into our Holiday Village. With skilled local artisans, sippable samples, and so much more, the Holiday Village is your hub for seasonal cheer on the following dates:

• Saturday, November 30th
• Saturday, December 7th
• Saturday, December 14th
• Saturday, December 21st

The Holiday Village will be open from 11 AM to 9 PM and, if you’re one of the first 100 customers on November 30th, you’ll instantly receive a free Ocean Casino Resort tote. 

Late risers, have no fear! Branded bags aren’t the only freebie to get excited about at the Holiday Village. Every Saturday, the market will also feature craft cocktail tastings from 4 to 7 PM. Come down every weekend to try them all or check the schedule below to decide which you want to taste most:

• Bailey’s Treat Bar – November 30th
• Fabrizio Cello – December 7th

Sensational sips and seasonal cheer abound in the Holiday Village—but that’s not all. You can also shop for bespoke presents, personal souvenirs, and festive items from kind, crafty artisans based in the AC area.

Meet the Vendors

New Jersey is absolutely brimming with local artisans, and selecting only eight for our Holiday Village was harder than squeezing down a chimney. After much deliberation and discussion with many of our favorite local vendors, we curated this can’t-miss lineup:

• Blissfully Liss Jewelry – Beach meets boho at Blissfully Liss. From pearls to metal puka shells and shark teeth, this beloved jewelry brands’ bracelets and necklaces feature whimsical designs that channel the uninhibited, free spirit of a balmy Atlantic summer.
• 2 Chicks with Chocolate – Pumpkin bark, fig caramel, and wine infusions may seem so indulgent that they deserve a direct trip to the naughty list—but they’re also so tempting that even Santa didn’t want to get on the 2 Chicks’ bad side. You won’t find treats like this every day, so be sure to try the craft chocolatier’s holiday sweets before they’re out of season.
• Making Waves – Making Waves is a collection of boutiques specializing in trendy and modern jewelry, clothes, accessories, and more. They curate the hottest brands, latest styles, and coolest threads to optimize your outfits without having to shop around from store to store. 
• The Card Capital – Whether you’re a baseball, football, basketball, hockey, or soccer lover, The Card Capital is your source for trading cards, memorabilia, and more. If you’re a sports fanatic or shopping for one this holiday season, stop by to browse rare items you won’t find anywhere else.
• Hank Sauce – Life is better with a bit of spice! Hank Sauce is a small, artisanal hot sauce maker from Sea Isle City, New Jersey with huge flavors to share. With cilantro, butter, and herb-infused varieties, Hank’s taking the sauce game to new heights that even a flying reindeer could only dream of reaching.
• Bar 32 – What do you get when you combine rich, luxurious Tanzanian cocoa, tart Luxudo cherries, and flakey Maldon sea salt? A dark, decadent bar of chocolate that’ll tempt your taste buds in ways you never thought possible. That’s Bar 32’s specialty. If you’re a cocoa lover, they’re a necessary stop during your shopping spree at the Holiday Village. NOTE: Bar 32 will only make one appearance at the Holiday Village on Saturday, December 7th. 
• Santa’s Sweet Shop – Saint Nick is notorious for his sweet tooth and, while cookies are usually his snack of choice, he’s likely no stranger to candy and other sweet treats. Santa’s Sweet Shop features all your favorite seasonal candies, snacks, and other goodies that remind you of the holidays with every bite. 
• Exhale Spa + Bathhouse – Exhale Spa + Bathhouse is a permanent feature of Ocean Casino Resort and has been voted the best spa in New Jersey. During the Holiday Village, they’re showing off their premium creams, lotions, soaps, sprays, and more. You can also book facials, scrubs, and other rejuvenating treatments—the perfect antidote if all of the seasonal fun has you in need of relaxation. 

In addition to these local vendors and artisans, you can also pick up a variety of Ocean Casino Resort branded merchandise from ShopOcean. From winter apparel to stockings, yoga mats, accessories, and more, you can get your favorite items from your favorite place all while enjoying a fun, festive shopping atmosphere in the Holiday Village.
