Pinball machines and arcade games take center stage at new Brigantine Airbnb

A new Airbnb in Brigantine is turning heads — and flipping paddles! The Pinball Palace, a one-of-a-kind pinball-themed Airbnb in Brigantine welcomes guests to relive the golden age of arcade games – all with stunning waterfront views.

The three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is an arcade lover’s dream. The space features multiple working pinball machines, a Seeburg Jukebox, classic arcade games and even a pool table — all included for guest enjoyment.

But it’s not just about fun and games. With a waterfront backyard, modern amenities and room for up to nine overnight guests, the Pinball Palace also offers a welcoming retreat for families and friends visiting the Jersey Shore.

Homeowner Ken Schaffer partnered with local Airbnb co-host Krista Baum, owner of KB Luxury Home Hosting, to bring his unique vision to life.

Inspired by the excitement surrounding Baum’s successful Taylor Swift-themed Airbnb in Absecon, Schaffer saw an opportunity to open his home – and his extensive pinball collection – to guests. The result is a uniquely immersive stay that celebrates classic arcade nostalgia with a modern coastal twist.

“This collaboration allowed us to turn a personal passion into a memorable experience for visitors,” said Baum. “We wanted to create a special place where guests of all ages can relax, play, and make lasting memories. As a breast cancer survivor, I believe the best gift we can give is time, and knowing our guests are creating those memories makes all the hard work worthwhile.”

Located just minutes from the beach and Atlantic City, the Pinball Palace is the perfect mix of nostalgia and luxury in one of New Jersey’s most charming shore towns. It’s part of a growing movement toward experiential travel — where the stay itself becomes the destination.
