Quick Answer

The boat you sleep on decides more about your Komodo trip than any itinerary ever will.

The same three days — Padar sunrise, komodo dragons, Pink Beach, manta rays — can feel like a backpacker adventure or a floating boutique hotel depending on the hull under your feet.
That is why we publish our fleet openly, with real cabin prices in USD, instead of hiding boats behind a generic "contact us" form.
Every vessel is one we actually operate or charter week in, week out as part of Komodo Luxury.
Fleet diversity never means safety diversity: every hull meets the same non-negotiables.

Ayvara

Ayvara

3D2N share trip Superior · Deluxe · Master · Suite Phinisi

The boat that changed what a shared komodo boat tour can feel like. Most open-deck boats in Labuan Bajo treat cabins as an afterthought; Ayvara was fitted out cabin-first. Whatever cabin you pick, the deck experience is identical: all meals cooked on board, snorkeling gear, flying-fox sunset at Kalong, and a licensed ranger-guided dragon trek.

Malca

Malca

3D2N share trip Simple cabins, communal deck Phinisi

Malca runs the same route as boats charging double — Padar viewpoint, Komodo dragon trekking, Pink Beach, Manta Point, Kalong sunset — with simpler cabins and a friendly communal deck. She is not luxury, and we never pretend otherwise. She is clean, crewed by people who have run this crossing for years, and safety-equipped to the same standard we hold every hull to.

Private Charter
Riley

Riley

4–9 guests Whole boat, 3D2N Phinisi

Once your group hits four people, private charter maths start beating share-trip maths. Split nine ways, that is under USD 470 per person for a boat that answers only to your group. Families with children book Riley more than any other boat in our fleet, precisely because there are no strangers’ schedules to negotiate.

Catnazse

Catnazse

Up to 10+ guests Spacious en-suite Luxury Phinisi

The phinisi silhouette with genuinely premium interiors: spacious en-suite cabins, a crew-to-guest ratio that feels like a boutique hotel, and dining that goes well beyond boat food. The boat we recommend for milestone trips — honeymoons, anniversaries, multi-generation family reunions where grandparents need real beds and real bathrooms.

Lady Grace

Lady Grace

2 guests per cabin 4D3N Lombok–Komodo Liveaboard

Most Komodo boats start and end in Labuan Bajo. Lady Grace is different: she runs the 4D3N Lombok-to-Komodo crossing that lets you begin your journey from the Bali side. The route includes the option to swim with whale sharks in Saleh Bay — an encounter no Labuan Bajo day boat can offer. Be clear-eyed about the trade-off: the crossing is long.

Day-Trip Speedboats

Day-Trip Speedboats

Shared departure Shade canopy, open seating Speedboat

Modern twin- or triple-engine speedboats, not converted fishing hulls: life jackets for every seat, shade canopy, and crews who read the Flores Sea daily. Leave Labuan Bajo around 5:30–6:00 AM and return by late afternoon, covering Padar, dragon trekking, Pink Beach and Manta Point in one intense, unforgettable day.

Safety

Safety and Standards Across Every Hull

Fleet diversity never means safety diversity. Every boat we operate or charter — from Malca to Catnazse — meets the same non-negotiables.

The best sailing season is April to November; in the January–February wet season we run conservatively and tell you honestly when a crossing should not happen.

That discipline is a large part of why our rating sits at 4.9/5 from 1,500+ verified guests across Google and TripAdvisor, and why Komodo Luxury has held TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice status in 2025 and 2026.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Which boat is best for a first-time Komodo boat tour?
For most first-timers, Ayvara on the 3D2N share trip is the best balance: private-feeling cabins from USD 400 (IDR 6,000,000), all meals included, and the full Padar–Komodo–Pink Beach–Manta Point route. Budget travelers should look at Malca at USD 215; groups of four or more often do better chartering Riley privately.
How much does it cost to charter a private boat to Komodo?
Private 3D2N charters start at USD 3,950 (IDR 65,000,000) for Riley, which carries 4–9 guests, and range up to USD 6,250–9,000 (IDR 103,000,000–148,000,000) for the luxury vessel Catnazse. Split among a full group, private charter often costs less per person than premium share-trip cabins.
Can I take a boat from Bali all the way to Komodo?
Yes — Lady Grace runs a 4D3N Lombok-to-Komodo route at IDR 22,500,000 (~USD 1,365) per cabin for two, including an optional whale shark swim in Saleh Bay. That said, most travelers fly Bali (DPS) to Labuan Bajo (LBJ) in about one hour for USD 60–120 and board there. Choose the sea route only if the voyage itself is your goal.
Are your boats safe during the crossing to Komodo National Park?
Yes. Every vessel in our fleet carries certified life jackets for all guests, radio and GPS navigation, and first-aid equipment, and is crewed by captains with long Flores Sea experience. We sail conservatively, re-route for weather when needed, and recommend the April–November season for the calmest conditions.
Do prices include the Komodo National Park entrance fee?
No — the national park fee of IDR 650,000 per person (~USD 40) is set by the park authority and paid locally, on top of your boat price. Everything on the boat side — cabin, all meals, snorkeling gear, ranger-guided trekking, and crew — is included. Full inclusion lists per boat are confirmed in writing before you pay any deposit.
