Bottom line
Different quote units prevent a direct price winner
Crystal's observed median is $773/night on its starting fare, per guest basis; Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection's is $1,633/night on its ritz suite fare per guest basis. Those quote units do not support a direct price winner without a verified normalization.
Each observed price remains useful on its own published basis, but the two amounts are not like-for-like.
