SC Cruises’ flagship MSC World Asia is offering the biggest choice of MSC Yacht Club suites on any ship in the cruiseline’s fleet when she begins sailing in the Mediterranean starting 4 December.
Debuting for the first time is the Royal Duplex Suite, a 53sqm, two-deck suite with two separate bedrooms and 11sqm private balcony with private whirlpool bath. Able to accommodate up to six guests, this new suite is perfect for families or groups, with an expansive living room for the ultimate entertaining space.
MSC World Asia’s MSC Yacht Club spans over 9,900sqm with its bi-level private sundeck featuring luxurious outdoor furniture by Unopiu, along with a pool and grill for al fresco dining on the foredecks of the ship. Guests can enjoy 144 appointed suites across seven different categories.
The MSC Yacht Club is MSC Cruises’ luxury, all-inclusive “ship-within-a-ship” concept, offering a variety of exclusive benefits and facilities including dedicated lounge and restaurant, and 24-hour butler and concierge services. MSC Yacht Club guests also benefit from a premium drink package, unlimited Wi-Fi, priority embarkation and disembarkation, plus access to the Aurea Spa thermal area and exclusive shore excursions.
“MSC World Asia will provide an unparalleled cruise experience when she sets sail in the Mediterranean next year,” MSC Cruises senior director yacht club & hotel services Cristian Comirla said.
“Guests can expect to find all of the facilities and services that they have come to know and love about the MSC Yacht Club, and with the exciting addition of the new Royal Duplex Suite, there’s also something new to discover. This new suite is perfect for larger groups and families to enjoy the benefits of MSC Yacht Club while still having access to the excitement of the ship’s entertainment, dining venues and other amenities.”
As the third ship in the line’s trailblazing World Class series – which celebrates the beauty of world’s continents and oceans, reflecting the global nature of MSC Cruises – MSC World Asia features subtle design elements that reflect Asia’s rich culture, art, and beautiful landscapes. Like her sister ships, she also features seven onboard districts, each with its own atmosphere, facilities and experiences, designed to help guests navigate the ship and choose their own holiday experience.
