MSC Cruises is looking to further enrich the passenger experience. On the company's two newest ships, MSC Virtuosa and MSC Seashore, the exclusive MSC Yacht Club has been further enhanced. Both ships are versions of their sister ships. As such, this has allowed for the expansion of the MSC Yacht Club to provide more public space and even more outdoor area. In particular, MSC Seashore will feature the largest MSC Yacht Club to date, with almost 3,000 square meters of private space.
First launched in 2008, it is now available on more than half of the MSC Cruises fleet. The MSC Yacht Club's "yacht within a ship" concept set a new industry standard for a premium cruise experience, offering passengers the exclusivity and privacy of a private cruise while providing the wealth of leisure and entertainment options of a larger vessel.
Designed to make passengers feel like VIPs, the all-inclusive MSC Yacht Club experience is fully personalized with a 24-hour butler who quickly learns each passenger's personal preferences and provides warm, friendly, and discreet service. Meanwhile, the concierge is on hand to facilitate any request, from arranging private shore excursions or making spa reservations to having your newspaper delivered to your cabin each morning. No request is too big or too small.
An environment accessible only with an exclusive access card for MSC Yacht Club passengers. The Swarovski crystal staircase at the entrance instantly sets the tone for the sophistication and glamour to be expected throughout, particularly in the spacious and beautifully designed suites.
The MSC Yacht Club boasts the best panoramic views from the bow of the ship, where passengers can make the most of their time while relaxing in comfort in the elegant Top Sail Lounge. Unlimited complimentary drinks and gourmet canapés are served throughout the day and evening: simply sit back and unwind with a glass of champagne or your favorite beverage and watch the world go by. You can also enjoy afternoon tea after a morning sightseeing tour or spend the evening with a signature cocktail in hand while listening to live music. The lounge has something special to offer passengers from early morning until late at night. Meanwhile, the private fine-dining restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, featuring an à la carte menu with daily-changing chef's specialties. A wide variety of gourmet dishes are complemented by an extensive wine list, all served in a sublime setting with impeccable service.
Both the private terrace and the pool are spacious and have many different areas to enjoy: from relaxing in the sun on a comfortable sun lounger, in one of the shaded cabanas while reading a book or in the jacuzzi with the relaxing bubbles, to enjoying a cocktail or a light canapé from the bar.
MSC Seashore boasts the largest and most luxurious MSC Yacht Club in the fleet
Spread over four decks, the MSC Yacht Club at MSC Seashore has been upgraded to become the largest and most luxurious in the MSC Cruises fleet, with almost 3,000 square meters of private space.
