MSC Yacht Club Offers Free Upgrade to MSC Cruises Yacht Club

MSC Yacht Club Offers Free Upgrade to MSC Cruises Yacht Club

MSC Yacht Club is one of the most enjoyable cruise experiences I have taken in the last ten years.

I was totally blown away by the service, the wide age group (from 30's to 60's), the food and the private pool with the wide range of complimentary druinks throughout the day and into the evening.

I loved the fact that you are on a very modern luxurious ship with all its amenities in the knowledge that you could go and retreat back to your suite or the concierge Top Sail Lounge at any time - maybe for afternoon tea..!!
