MSC are really on the UP with some fantastic new ships which look fabulous and they are sailing from the UK too! MSC are the Marmite of the cruise world though, some people really love them and others well, they just do not like them (I love them). If you are thinking of sailing with MSC and normally go for the higher grade of cabins are you aware that MSC have their very own “posh” suite of cabins called the Yacht Club?
The Yacht club is not available on every ship but on the following – Preziosa, Divina, Splendida, Fantasia, Meraviglia, Seaside, Seaview, Bellissima and finally the Grandiosa. If you are looking for something really special, I urge you to try it. So, what do you get in the Yacht club? How about –
- Dedicated priority check-in and check-out
- Butler service available 24 hours
- Dedicated concierge 24 hours a day
- Relaxation amenities in each suite (including bathrobe and slippers)
- Unlimited drinks in all MSC Yacht Club venues or from your mini-bar
- Complimentary beverage selection in all onboard bars and restaurants according to the drink selection available in the venue
- Complimentary access to the Thermal Suite in the MSC Aurea Spa
- 24-hour room service
- Access to all ship’s amenities (bars and lounges, specialty restaurants, pools…)
- Premium 20-hours-a-day buffet (gourmet menu for every moment of the day)
- Varied programme of Broadway-style theatre shows available almost every day
- Entertainment activities for adults, infants and children (Clubs…)
- Recreational activities for children:
- Open-air sports facilities (Power Walking Track, Basketball…)
- Extremely well-equipped gym with panoramic view
I must admit I love the idea of my own personal butler, the Yacht Club restaurant (eat when you want), the concierge service, the private lounge, the private pool, and your very own private pool deck. The entrance to the Yacht Club is via your own key fob too – so very private IF you want that.
Finally the cabins are very well appointed as you would expect being in the “posh” bit!
Try them, you will not be disappointed!
Till next time x
