MSC Cruises says its Yacht Club ‘ship within a ship’ concept offers an exclusive holiday sanctuary on board many of MSC Cruises’ ships, providing guests an unique cruise experience with complete serenity, added exclusivity, and privacy that is not lacking in choice.
The privatized, key-card access area of the ship is only accessible to MSC Yacht Club guests, offering stylish facilities and accommodations with a host of dedicated amenities, such as a panoramic lounge, high-end restaurant, elegant pool, and secluded sun deck.
Available on more than half of MSC Cruises’ fleet, guests staying in the MSC Yacht Club are provided a range of privileges and personalized service that are available around-the-clock and are designed to cater to their specific needs and preferences.
The MSC Yacht Club also offers a myriad of dedicated leisure and entertainment possibilities, allowing guests to enjoy the exclusivity of a private club while also having access to the many recreation and entertainment options available throughout the larger ship.
Highlights of the MSC Yacht Club benefits include:
- 24-hour personalized service
An all-inclusive experience personalized with a dedicated 24-hour butler service and concierge, ensuring the cruising experience is tailored to each individual guest’s needs. The butler service will quickly get to know each guest’s personal preferences, providing the highest level of customized service to ensure all guests feel pampered and relaxed. From shoe-shining to 3 a.m. room service, no request is too small. Meanwhile, the dedicated concierge is on hand to facilitate any request, from organizing shore excursions and making reservations for the spa to arranging for the newspaper to be brought to the cabin each morning.
