Komodo Phinisi Charter — Traditional Wooden Yacht Hire

The phinisi is Indonesia's legendary two-masted wooden sailing vessel, hand-built by the Konjo shipwrights of South Sulawesi using techniques passed down for generations. Chartering one for Komodo gives you the romance of traditional sailing with the comforts of a modern boutique hotel. Our phinisi feature air-conditioned en-suite cabins, sun decks, lounge areas and a dedicated crew and chef. With the whole vessel to yourself, you set the pace — sunrise at Padar, a long lunch at anchor, or a quiet night under the stars far from any other boat. Private phinisi charters start from around $5,300 per boat, all-inclusive of meals, crew, fuel, snorkel and dive gear, park fees and Labuan Bajo transfers.
