One thing I’ve come to enjoy about YC is that butlers who aren’t assigned to your room are always happy to help and YC guest whether it be an escort, drink order or recommendation. It’s like once you put on that YC wrist band anyone and everyone is happy to help.

I think you need to make entertainment a true category to compare. NCL has amazing almost Broadway level shows like Choir of Man. Syd Norman's Pour House venue has such talented bands, the Rumors Fleetwood Mac show is not to be missed. We have been to Syd's on three different ships and the shows are always top notch. Fun fact, if you are in the Haven the concierge will escort you down a crew elevator and you can bypass the line at Syd's and have first pick of seating. MSC entertainment is just strange, trying to be avante garde but just comes across as amateur. Thanks for another fun review!

Very helpful. We were wondering which is better. Heard some disturbing things about “gen pop” behavior on MSC lately, but it sounds like Yacht Club is segregated well.

Impressive how you managed a two camera shoot on location! Nicely done ✅

[micheltravelstheworld]

Well done! Nice video guys. Regarding private elevators for Y/C, all elevators on the ship are private for Y/C. Scan your Y/C card (under) the panel, and choose any floor. The number on the elevator is shown on the panel as usual but the light above the elevator does not blink and is reserved for only you. You have a private trip to any floor. From deck 5 to your Y/C deck or simply from deck 5 to 6. Enjoy your next cruise and surprise us with another nice video.

I love yacht club only did MSC GP once and it is a totally different experience both good but Yacht club is worth every penny. Never going non yacht club again. Combie is amazing he was my butler Dec 2023 at Christmas. Combie never misses a beat and super nice.

[Tray-See]

He was our Butlerrrr! He was amazing! He had a task getting us off the ship but he made sure we passed the line and got us right off the ship.

I just sailed NCL earlier this year, and will be trying MSC YC for my next cruise. Exicted for my first taste of opulence.

[FRM]

Nov will be our 3rd YC experience. Always worth the value and opulence!

NCL's private island does not allow Haven guest to use the private area. You have to pay extra.

Surprised you allowed the Haven butler to be MIA and didn't speak to the manager or hotel director.

Drop your luggage at the Yacht Club tent at the base of the escalator not with the regular porters. You luggage will stay seperated and beat you to the room. It's very opulent!

[christina-mzlp]

Those drinks look awesome, what are they? Just went on msc and there was some mean lady at the smiling fish.

Thanks for this video. January will be my first MSC Yacht Club experience. May I ask...how much did you tip your butler?? And did you tip waiters??

[TheGersh]

That wasn’t my experience with the Haven. I embarked in NYC, from entering the terminal to being in the Haven lounge was about 15 minutes. The longest part of the process was a chatty attendant who was processing our passports and checking us in. Our cabin steward was on point, he asked us when we wanted our room done and had it done at that time, and always very present. As for the thermal spa, I guess it depends on the ship. On the Breakaway the gym was adjacent to the spa and you didn’t hear anything from it. There were always plenty of loungers and it was in front of the ship near the Haven. Looking to try the YC as well.

What drove us away from MSC is their kids sail free, too many kids!
We are black card, and in the near future will try Virgin adults only cruises!

[cheryltracy]

The Haven artwork looks slightly pornographic!

Dang skippy I don't wait. Remember that wind? That tent was like "I'mma blow on over and y'all gonna DIE up in here..." TAKE ME TO DAS BOAT
