Emperor Serenity is a 40-metre Maldivian liveaboard from the Emperor Divers fleet. The vessel has been completely rebuilt and since 2024 sails effectively as a new boat: fibreglass hull, four decks, thirteen ensuite cabins for twenty-six guests.
Cabins are spread across three decks. Seven cabins with portholes sit on the lower deck, while the main and upper decks hold four spacious suites of 17.5–22 m² with a king-size bed and large windows. Every cabin has individually controlled air conditioning, an ensuite bathroom with a shower, charging ports and storage space.
Diving runs from a dedicated 24-metre dhoni: gear stays there, so the yacht’s own decks stay clear. The dhoni carries compressors, oxygen, a full first-aid kit and an AED, three crew of its own and up to four dive guides per group. Nitrox up to 32% is free, S80 tanks are standard with C100 on request, DIN adaptors and rebreather support are available. Photographers get charging stations, rinse tanks, an air gun and a camera table.
Inside there is an air-conditioned saloon with sofas, a TV, a library and board games, an internationally stocked bar and a restaurant serving buffet meals — local and Western cuisine, a beach barbecue and a special dinner. A glass of wine with dinner is included, and most evenings there is a two-for-one happy hour. The upper deck is an open lounge, the sun deck is given over to loungers and bean bags.
Port and park fees, the environment tax, the airport transfer and the fuel surcharge are all in the price — there are no itinerary or fuel add-ons on board. Departures are on Sundays; the core programme is “Best of Maldives” around the central atolls.
