As you may or may not know I was on board the MSC Spelndida back in July experiencing the 6* luxury of the exclusive Yacht club they have on board. This experience was amazing and you can read for yourself in my previous blog what my thoughts really were click here but it doesn't really give you the full insight into the day on the life of being a Yacht club passenger.....
So here I want to share a video experience with you which will really make you feel like you are a part of it all. The first section of the video will delve into the finer details of the Yacht Club and then you will be shown around all the exclusive areas you have access to being a Yacht Club member.
The second part of the video shows a typical day of an MSC Yacht Club guest specifying what services are included and what are exclusive with all amenities and comfort that can be found on board.

I really hope this gives you a good insight and of course maybe tempts your taste buds into trying the experience for yourself as take it from me, it really is fabulous!

A Menu to die for!
What did I do on the dull Monday just gone? Well I was sampling a 7 course 6* lunch that's what!
I was lucky enough to travel down to Dover and board the Oceania Insignia which is a beautiful 6* ship, for a full ship tour (perk of the job I know)
The ship was stunning and had a very sumptuous feel to it, but what I wanted to rave about first of all was the 7 course lunch that I was treated to. The menu was simply to die for and I am a rather fussy eater too, so very hard to please!
The Sea Bass was something I had never tasted before in my life....it was baked slowly for 2 hours and covered in a mouth-watering Miso glaze, this is something you would expect to be served in a Michelin star restaurant.
Oceania cruises are all about the food; there no 1 priority is to serve the best food at sea bar no other cruise line! They are also the only cruise line who hangs the Beef for 28 days where it is then vacuum packed and sent to the ship. Then they cook it so slowly (72 hours usually) that by the time it is served to you, you can literally cut it with your fork (I tried and tested this and it is true!)
If for you the food is the most important part of a cruise then Oceania are the only cruise line to do....you really must try it at least once to believe it.
