The Komodo Yacht Fleet: Every Vessel You Can Charter With Komodo Yacht Tour
The Komodo yacht fleet available through Komodo Yacht Tour counts nine owned vessels plus vetted partner vessels operated under Komodo Luxury since 2015, spanning four tiers: share-trip phinisi from $390 per person, deluxe private charters from $2,100 per day, Ayvara and Malca, and the ultra-luxury flagship Komodo Signature. All prices are quoted transparently in USD.
Most operators in Labuan Bajo make you WhatsApp them just to learn what a boat costs. We do the opposite. This page is the complete hub for the fleet you can book through Komodo Yacht Tour — every tier, every headline vessel, and the official website of each boat — with real USD pricing published up front. The fleet is operated under Komodo Luxury, the TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice winner in 2025 and 2026 rated 4.9/5 from 1,500+ verified guests across Google and TripAdvisor and featured in Forbes, CNN Indonesia, Yahoo Finance, The Globe and Mail, and Benzinga.
How the Komodo Yacht Fleet Is Organized
Every vessel in the fleet is a licensed liveaboard sailing the same core route — Padar, Komodo Island, Pink Beach, Manta Point, Taka Makassar, Kanawa — inside Komodo National Park. What changes between tiers is cabin comfort, crew ratio, food, and privacy. The park entrance fee of IDR 650,000 per person is the same regardless of which yacht you choose, and the dry season (April–November) is prime time for all of them.
| Fleet Tier | Best For | Typical Boats | Price Guide (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Share Trip (Open Cabin) | Solo travelers, couples on a budget | Deluxe phinisi, shared itinerary | From $390/pax — 3D2N |
| Standard Private Charter | Friend groups, families | 4–6 cabin phinisi | $1,400–$2,000/day |
| Deluxe Private Charter | Comfort-first travelers | Ayvara, Malca class | $2,100–$3,800/day |
| Luxury & Ultra-Luxury | Honeymoons, VIP groups, incentives | Komodo Signature class | $4,500–$10,000+/day |
Deposits are 50% to confirm any vessel, with the balance due 14 days before departure (H-14). If you want to see how these daily rates translate into a total trip budget with park fees, fuel, and crew included, our Komodo yacht tour cost breakdown walks through real examples line by line.
The Share Trip Fleet — Best Seller at 91%
The 3D2N share trip is the single most-booked product across the entire fleet — 91% of open-trip guests choose it. You book a private cabin on a deluxe phinisi and share the itinerary with a small group of international travelers. It is the lowest-cost way to sleep aboard a real yacht inside the national park without chartering the whole boat. Departure schedules and cabin availability are published on the official Komodo open trip schedule.
| Share Trip Package | Duration | Cabin Type | Price (USD, per person) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Open Trip Deluxe | 3D2N | Private cabin, ensuite | $390–$520 |
| Open Trip Superior | 3D2N | Master cabin, sea view | $520–$650 |
| Open Trip 2D1N | 2D1N | Private cabin | $290–$390 |
Well-Reviewed Charters: Ayvara & Malca
Two names come up again and again in 1,500+ verified guest reviews across Google and TripAdvisor behind the fleet’s 4.9/5 rating.
Ayvara
A modern deluxe phinisi with air-conditioned ensuite cabins, a wide sundeck, and a crew-to-guest ratio that consistently earns it “best boat we’ve ever stayed on” feedback. Ayvara is the go-to recommendation for groups of 8–14 who want private-charter comfort without flagship pricing — typically $2,400–$3,200 per day, all crew and meals included.
Malca
Malca pairs classic Bugis phinisi lines with a contemporary interior fit-out. It is the fleet’s most-requested honeymoon and small-family charter: fewer, larger cabins, an open-air dining deck, and a chef whose seafood barbecues are a recurring theme in guest reviews. Expect $2,100–$2,900 per day depending on season and route.
The Flagship: Komodo Signature
At the top of the fleet sits Komodo Signature, the ultra-luxury flagship — a full-service superyacht-standard phinisi with suite-class cabins, dedicated service crew, curated dining, and itineraries built entirely around your group. This is the vessel for milestone celebrations, executive retreats, and guests who want the national park experienced at five-star resort level. Flagship charters are quoted individually; budget from $7,000 per day and plan 3–6 months ahead for dry-season dates.

Which Vessel Fits Your Trip Style?
If you only have one day in Labuan Bajo, several of the faster vessels run full-day island circuits — see the day yacht tour options for routes that hit Padar and Komodo Island between sunrise and sunset. If you can stay overnight, a liveaboard is categorically the better experience: you wake up anchored at Padar for sunrise before the day boats arrive. Our guide to multi-day yacht tours compares 2D1N, 3D2N, and 4D3N itineraries across the fleet.
| Your Situation | Recommended Fleet Choice | Budget Guide (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Solo / couple, flexible dates | 3D2N Share Trip (best seller) | $390–$650 per person |
| Group of 6–10 friends | Standard or Deluxe private phinisi | $1,400–$2,800 per day |
| Honeymoon or anniversary | Malca or Ayvara private charter | $2,100–$3,200 per day |
| VIP group / celebration | Komodo Signature flagship | From $7,000 per day |
Booking Any Vessel in the Fleet
Booking works the same across all nine owned vessels plus vetted partner vessels: tell us your dates, group size, and tier, and we confirm live availability across the whole fleet — something individual vessel sites cannot do. A 50% deposit secures your boat; the balance is due 14 days before departure. During the April–November dry season the well-reviewed vessels sell out 6–10 weeks ahead, so early inquiry matters more than early payment. Reach the team on WhatsApp at +62 811-3823-875 or by email at sales@komodoluxury.com. More common questions — cancellation terms, wet-season sailing, what to pack — are answered on our yacht tour FAQ.
