If you’ve ever wanted the perks of a private yacht without giving up the entertainment and amenities of a big cruise ship, MSC Cruises may just have the guest list for you.
Beginning summer 2026, the MSC Magnifica will become the latest vessel in the MSC fleet to host the MSC Yacht Club, the line’s premium ‘ship-within-a-ship’ luxury enclave.
The MSC Yacht Club offers travellers a high-end, all-inclusive experience inside some of the fleet’s largest ships. With private suites, dedicated facilities, and white-glove service, it’s designed for guests who enjoy a little more seclusion.
The MSC Yacht Club offers travellers a high-end, all-inclusive experience inside some of the fleet’s largest ships…
Ultimately, the MSC Yacht Club is about balance. You enjoy all the benefits of a large, resort-style ship (lavish entertainment, wide-ranging dining, and grand itineraries) while retreating to a personal oasis with its own restaurant, lounge, sundeck, and pool.
And now, as part of the most extensive refit in MSC Magnifica’s 14-year history, the ship will be joining this exclusive club.
What’s new on MSC Magnifica?
When MSC Magnifica re-emerges from dry dock, she’ll look and feel like a different ship. The transformation includes a five-deck expansion dedicated to the Yacht Club, featuring 63 all-new suites.
These will range from ocean-view balconies to connected options for families, and a flagship Royal Suite complete with private whirlpool and sprawling 78 sqm terrace.
Other highlights promised include a private sundeck with whirlpool, grill, and chic cabanas, the Top Sail lounge with floor-to-ceiling windows and sweeping views, exclusive Yacht Club restaurant, an upgraded spa and state-of-the-art Technogym fitness centre.
Where and when can you sail?
Bookings are now open: For Summer 2026, Yacht Clubbers can choose from Warnemünde, Germany, through the Baltics and Scandinavia, including Stockholm, Helsinki, Riga, and Tallinn; Winter 2025/26 itineraries include Short Mediterranean sailings to cultural gems like Barcelona, Marseille and Rome.
And if that’s not enough, Yacht Club service will be available on MSC’s World Cruise, a 121-night odyssey to 45 destinations in 25 countries, in 2027. To book visit MSC Cruises here.
