MSC Cruises has been undertaking a comprehensive refurbishment and upgrade programme across many of its ships – a significant investment in continuously modernising its fleet and enhancing the guest experience.

Many of these upgrades relate to the Line’s award-winning, all-inclusive luxury cruising concept, the MSC Yacht Club, which has been added to all four Musica class ships, and now with an enhanced MSC Yacht Club Restaurant on all four Fantasia class ships.

Guests sailing in the MSC Yacht Club will be able to enjoy these redesigned restaurants which will offer a fresh and elegant dining atmosphere. The new interior embraces a contemporary and refined aesthetic featuring a modern layout which incorporates darker tones, soft textures and sophisticated lighting, creating an intimate atmosphere. Vertical elements and subtle partitions add structure to the space, enhancing privacy while maintaining openness and fluidity, while panoramic sea views remain a defining feature.

The newly upgraded MSC Yacht Club restaurant is now available on board following the ship’s completion of her refurbishment at the Palumbo Malta Shipyard and has since began her winter sailings in the Mediterranean. The refurbishment will be rolled out across the line’s Fantasia Class ships with to be completed in December 2026, followed by April 2027 and in February 2028.

Within the redesigned setting, the MSC Yacht Club restaurant on board delivers an unforgettable dining experience, combining exceptional food and personalised service. Guests can choose from a variety of sophisticated menus and enjoy a dedicated 24/7 culinary staff as well as a sommelier on-hand, ensuring an elevated dining experience that reflects the premium identity the MSC Yacht Club experience is known for.
