The Waterside Restaurant is the main dining room, with the Marketplace providing an alternative for passengers preferring buffet-style dining. The renovation saw all suites on the ship reimagined, with fixtures and fittings including Italian marble and modern furnishings. Divided into areas including a lobby, lounge, dining room, bedroom and extra-large bathroom, these accommodations measure up to 1,065 square feet with a 107 square feet balcony. The largest suites on Crystal Serenity are the four Crystal Penthouse Suites on Deck 11. All of the suite categories from the 323-square-foot Aquamarine Veranda Suite and above have a separate bedroom and living area. Veranda suites begin at a similar size, plus a 54-square-foot balcony. The cabins, all of them outside, lead in with oceanview single and double staterooms measuring up to 215 square feet. As a result, the ship now has a high passenger to space ratio of one person per 93.1 cubic feet and almost one crew member per passenger. This has been achieved by remodelling and decreasing the number of suites, with some accommodations merged to create larger staterooms. In its previous guise Crystal Serenity carried 980 passengers and on the revamped vessel that number has gone down by nearly 250 to 740. Crystal Serenity Deck Plans Feature High Passenger Space Ratio and Multiple Venues Crystal fans can expect all the trademarks of the previous line on an enhanced ship. The ship was first launched in 2003 for the former Crystal Cruises, which ceased trading in early 2022 following the bankruptcy of the Genting Group parent company. The ship was acquired by the A&K Travel Group in 2022 - along with older and smaller fleetmate Crystal Symphony - and underwent a refurbishment that has seen the number of suites reduced and enlarged to carry a maximum of 740 passengers. The relaunch of Crystal Serenity in the summer of 2023 marks the return of the luxury Crystal brand.
