MSC Cruises is introducing a two-story luxury villa designed for larger and multigenerational families aboard its upcoming flagship, MSC World Atlantic, which is scheduled to begin sailing from Port Canaveral, Florida, in November 2027.
The Grand Hamptons Villa will be the ship’s only accommodation of its kind and is available to book for sailings beginning with the vessel’s debut. The villa spans more than 2,475 square feet of indoor and outdoor living space and can accommodate up to eight guests.
Designed in collaboration with destination and experience design firm Storyland Studios, the villa draws inspiration from the Hamptons and features a double-height living room, a private cinema lounge, a bar, a dedicated dining area and an expansive oceanfront terrace with a whirlpool bath and lounge seating.
The accommodation also includes a primary suite with a private terrace, a separate twin bedroom, a double cabin and a dedicated children’s suite with custom bunk beds, individual television screens and a private bathroom. Other features include a private library, a digital gaming table, a LEGO wall and an interactive play area.
“As demand for family and multigenerational travel continues to grow, we are constantly looking for new ways to elevate our guest experience to create unique and memorable experiences,” says Gianni Onorato, chief executive officer of MSC Cruises. He adds that the villa reflects the company’s efforts to expand its premium family vacation offerings.
Guests will also receive access to the MSC Yacht Club, the cruise line’s upscale ship-within-a-ship concept, along with 24-hour butler and concierge service. Additional perks include a dedicated cleaning team, a Premium Extra Drinks package, a Fun Pass, unlimited specialty dining and Wi-Fi.
MSC World Atlantic will sail alternating seven-night and 14-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries from Port Canaveral. Planned destinations include Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, the cruise line’s private island in The Bahamas.
The Grand Hamptons Villa is intended for larger families and multigenerational groups, as well as two families traveling together, offering a private living space alongside access to the ship’s amenities and excursions.
