MSC Fantasia, the new flagship of MSC Crociere, features an exclusive area for the ultimate in luxury cruising. MSC Yacht Club has 99 spacious suites - all with butler service - and exclusive lounge and pool areas. This area is located in the most prestigious part of the ship, on Deck 15 forward, taking advantage of the stunning views. The 4,300 square meters MSC Yacht Club has been designed and furnished in the finest quality materials, while the specially selected amenities were designed exclusively for MSC Crociere by some of the world’s most respected brands. All suites feature Samsung LCD screens and some also provide a Bose system and Nintendo Wii station.
A perfect night’s sleep is guaranteed on the king-size bed with an ergonomic mattress, 300 thread count Egyptian cotton bed sheets and selection from a pillow menu drawn up in collaboration with Dorelan pillow research laboratories. The pampering continues in the marble bathrooms, where guests will find a specially-designed aromatherapy toiletries line by Escents, presented in biodegradable packaging. To ensure a highly personalised stay for all MSC Yacht Club guests, MSC Crociere has introduced a classic butler and concierge service. Available 24 hours a day, guests can call their butler via the simple touch of a pager. Following priority check-in, guests are welcomed on board by the head butler, offering champagne and canapés and introducing their personal butler, who then escorts them to their suite, explains the main features and offers to unpack their suitcases.
The butlers provide a valet service, including shoe care and laundry – a choice of dry or wet cleaning and ironing is available for same or next day delivery. Each morning, even at sea, they will deliver the guests’ favourite newspaper in the original layout with that day’s world news. Butlers can also make priority bookings for tender access and shore excursions, spa packages and a la carte restaurant reservations, reserve front row seats in the theatre for evening performances, select cigars and fine liquors and even arrange for fresh flowers to be delivered in the suite each day, upon request.
For the ultimate shopping experience, butlers can arrange tailor-made shopping packages, whereby the onboard boutiques will open specially, so guests can shop discretely and at their leisure.
The fabulous MSC Aurea Spa, accessible by private lift, offers exclusive treatments in VIP rooms to MSC Yacht Club guests. Alternatively, they can choose an in-suite spa treatment, from a Balinese massage or reflexology, to cranial and four-handed massages.
MSC Yacht Club offers a wide range of dining options, a select range of beverages and a dedicated chef. Special menu selections are available from El Sombrero Tex-Mex Restaurant, L’Etoile French restaurant and the Italian La Cantina Toscana restaurant in the Top Sail observation lounge, or via room service. Alternatively, guests can leave the Yacht Club to dine in the specially reserved areas in Il Cerchio d’Oro or L’Etoile restaurants, or any other restaurant of their choice.
Each afternoon, English high tea is served in the Top Sail lounge or in-suite if preferred. MSC Yacht Club offers the perfect holiday experience for guests looking for something extra, whether to celebrate a special occasion or just enjoy the ultimate in exclusive luxury cruising.
