Moz Posted October 4, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Is the top sail deck exclusive to Aureau guests and how is it accessed. Is there a bar there that is exclusive, Which elevator goes there. New to the aureau experience so need information, Also is there a separate dining room on this ship for that experience; Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peder Posted October 4, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Yep, it's exclusive. You can access it from outside and also from the elevator area that would lead to the Yacht Club. There's a bar there that's open most of the time (though it does close a bit early). The exclusive solarium was pretty quiet and typically had open seats when we were there. Sea days it fills up quite a bit. Also yes, there's a separate dining room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is one way the interlopers can access the Yacht Club. This bar is closed Ocean Cay day. Open 9am -7pm sea days and 1pm-7pm port days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted October 4, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 4, 2023 (edited) Just for informative purposes, it should be noted that Yacht Club guests have access to the Aurea area but Aurea guests aren't supposed to enter the Yacht Club area.

Rare morpheusofthesea Posted October 4, 2023 #6 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Here is another 'just for informative purposes', I noticed only the pergolas in the Aurea Top 19 had cushioned furniture and ALL the lounges were the same as gen pop. Yacht Club ALL the deck lounges are cushioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moz Posted October 4, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted October 4, 2023 As a peon would never think of invading the exclusive yacht club, We bid on an aureau from fantasia balcony so just need information on how to access it and do we show our cards as surely don't want to upset anyone especially the yacht club guests, It's a new experience and looking for information, Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Até Posted October 5, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Seaside Evo ships, like Seascape, have a separate dining room for Aurea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saving Up To Be Eccentric Posted October 5, 2023 #11 Share Posted October 5, 2023 As an aside, I would encourage you to look up deckplans for any largish cruise ship you'll be taking. Google.com, Duckduckgo.com, or any other competent engine will be able to find you several sites if the ones on MSC's homepage is being balky. Morpheus' complaint about interlopers is not directed at Aurea-class people going from the forward elevators into Top 19, but those that ascend to deck 19 and then 'tailgate' Yacht Club members, following behind people who open the Yacht Club doors with their wristbands or cards, or just walk in if the doors are propped open.

Moz Posted October 6, 2023 Author #12 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Thank you for the info. Certainly would never impose on another level but this is a first so need to have some indication of the deck and what is included, Is it extremely windy on that deck or is there some shelter. Is this area strictly for aureau guests or do other guests use it. Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peder Posted October 6, 2023 #13 Share Posted October 6, 2023 No, not too windy. Breezy for sure at night, but during sunlight hours I assume they slow down? My wife and I made a habit of hanging out in the cabana things after dark with wine that we had brought from up ourselves after the bar had closed.

The bar was never busy. We had great drink service there! Enjoy your cruise…and don’t forget to visit the thermal suite…it’s included and a great perk!

It varies by ship. In the case of the OP (Seascape), there is a separate restaurant for Aurea (Skyline). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, but the question is was it a few couples and a butler, or an interloper dressed as a butler, and he was sneaking the interlopers into the YC? 😊😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
