All aboard for shipboard meetings
Here’s a meeting venue planners may have missed: The foredecks of the MSC Fantasia and MSC Splendida at the MSC Yacht Club in Fort Lauderdale.
It has 71 Italian-designed suites, a private restaurant offering complimentary fine dining, a private sundeck with Jacuzzi and swimming pool, and an exclusive lounge serving gourmet snacks and drinks throughout the day.
These luxuries “provide the ideal location for a productive meeting or memorable event. Similarly, the business center meeting area and other fine lounges within the body of the main MSC cruise ship can be reserved too, providing ample space for private groups and the ideal combination of some work and some play,” the club says.
Amenities also include:
—24-hour butler service throughout a voyage with white-glove service.
—Outdoor breakfasts and other meetings while being served gourmet food and drinks.
—Use of a private swimming pool and solarium with two hot tubs and complimentary drinks and snacks all day long.
—Tailor-made private excursions and guided tours at all ports of call.
—Karaoke and disco dancing and state-of-the-art theatrical shows.
—Luxurious beds and a pillow menu with bedtime in-room movies.
—A 24-hour concierge.
—A private lounge with afternoon tea service served daily.
