Emperor Serenity launched in 2016. At 40-meters (131-foot), she accommodates 26 guests in 13 cabins. Serenity focuses on Best of Maldives cruises and Hanifaru & the Northern atolls.
A word from Dom: "Leisure space galore. In spite of accommodating 26 guests, Serenity ensures quiet spaces for everyone. She offers a holiday ambience and focuses largely on the central atolls where you'll get an overview of what makes the Maldives an idyllic archipelago." ... Dominick Macan
