See New York From Top of the Rock
Make Room for a Skyline Moment
Take your Rockefeller Center visit above street level at Top of the Rock. Its observation decks offer panoramic views across Manhattan, including the Empire State Building and Central Park.
Choose a daytime visit to pick out the landmarks or book an evening admission to see the city light up. Check ticket options and availability before planning the rest of your day.
After taking in the views, return to Margaritaville for a change of pace. Settle into your room, freshen up and head out for dinner without needing to travel across the city.
Step onto the ice at The Rink at Rockefeller Center and experience the plaza from a different perspective. With Rockefeller Center’s buildings rising around you, a skating session brings a memorable New York moment to a family vacation or a winter weekend for two.
Build your visit around time on the ice, then browse the shops around the plaza or stop for something warm. During the Christmas season, pair your skate with a visit to the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree and a stroll past Fifth Avenue’s holiday windows.
Margaritaville Resort Times Square is within walking distance, making it easy to return to your room to warm up and change before dinner or a Broadway show.
The Rink operates seasonally, with a schedule that differs from the Christmas tree display. Check Rockefeller Center’s official website for skating dates, session availability, skate rental options and ticket details before your visit. Skating admission is booked separately from your hotel stay.
For couples, it is an easy way to carry a sightseeing day into a night out. For families, on-site dining keeps dinner simple before everyone settles in for the evening.
Rockefeller Center fits naturally into a longer day of exploring New York. Browse its shops, stop for lunch or look out for public art around the complex before continuing through Midtown. Ideas for your stay include:
Fifth Avenue: Browse the stores near Rockefeller Center, with holiday window displays adding another reason to visit in winter.
St. Patrick’s Cathedral: Make time to see the cathedral across Fifth Avenue from Rockefeller Center.
Times Square: Return toward the resort for bright lights, people-watching and an evening in the neighborhood.
Broadway: Pair a daytime visit to Rockefeller Center with a performance in the nearby Theater District.
Leave a little space between plans. Staying in Times Square gives you the option to return to your room before heading out again.
