Rates are the current published charter rates for each vessel and are read directly from that liveaboard’s own page, so they stay in step with reservations. Several vessels are quoted in rupiah instead of dollars — Delilah from USD 1,550 per night, Santemako from USD 2,200 and Giona Cruise Liveaboard from USD 2,450. Peak season, Christmas and New Year sailings are quoted separately, and 2027 rates are already open on part of the fleet.
| Liveaboard | Cabins & capacity | Cabin price per person |
|---|---|---|
| Ahsana Liveaboard | 9 cabins, up to 25 guests | Family Cabin USD 300 · Superior USD 310 · Deluxe Cabin USD 400 · Deluxe Balcony USD 480 · Signature USD 510 · Master USD 560 |

| Package | 1–5 pax | 6–10 pax | 11–15 pax | 16–20 pax |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3D2N | USD 9,500 | USD 10,200 | USD 11,250 | USD 12,200 |
| 4D3N | USD 12,650 | USD 13,650 | USD 14,550 | USD 15,400 |

Published diving-package rates for Magika Liveaboard (9 cabins, up to 22 guests), covering the whole vessel with dives, tanks, weights and dive guides included. Non-diving private packages on the same liveaboard run from USD 4,700 for 2D1N to USD 13,850 for 6D5N depending on group size. Komodo National Park fees are excluded from every package.
Best for solo divers & couples on a budget
A cabin on a shared departure. Ahsana Liveaboard from USD 300 per person, Magika Liveaboard from USD 310, Sundari from USD 330 — the same reefs and the same crew as a private charter, at roughly a tenth of the whole-boat rate.
Best for a dedicated dive group
Magika Liveaboard, the only vessel in the fleet with a published diving rate card: 3D2N from USD 9,500 and 5D4N from USD 15,750 for the whole boat, 2026 rates. Arfisyana 2 (USD 4,700 per night, up to 22 guests) gives the lowest cost per diver on larger groups.
Best for families and mixed snorkel groups
Balaraja or Flores Utama from USD 3,400 per night, and Naturalia at USD 7,800 per night for up to 24 guests. Enough cabins for three generations, calm snorkel sites at Siaba and Manjarite while the certified divers work the pinnacles.
Best for groups of 20–28
Mutiara Cruise Phinisi (47 m, 10 cabins, up to 28 guests, USD 8,250 per night) or Lasha Phinisi Cruise (52.5 m, 10 cabins, up to 26 guests, USD 9,800 per night) — both keep the per-person cost of a private liveaboard close to a shared cabin.
Best for remote and southern Komodo routes
Kudanil Explorer (50 m steel expedition hull, 8 cabins, USD 26,000 per night + 12% VAT). Range and stabilisation to reach Manta Alley and the southern sites on a 5D4N or longer itinerary, in conditions day boats and smaller phinisi will not attempt.
Best for a flagship charter
Lamima (65.2 m, 7 cabins, 14 guests, USD 27,000 per night + 11% VAT) or Prana (55 m, 9 cabins, 18 guests, USD 20,000 per night) — the two largest luxury sailing phinisi operating out of Labuan Bajo.
Not every group wants a dive-first schedule. Guests who care more about the hand-built ironwood hull and the sail rig than about tank counts usually charter a traditional Indonesian phinisi sailing under canvas, where the same crews run a slower, more topside-led route through the same anchorages. Groups who want the whole vessel to themselves on a shorter, tighter schedule should compare whole-boat private charter pricing out of Labuan Bajo.
Divers who finish a Komodo circuit and want the next step almost always look east. The same fleet and dive team operate extended Raja Ampat cruise itineraries on 6D5N to 10D9N routes, where the trade is fewer strong-current pinnacles for a far higher species count. For travellers still deciding between a multi-night cruise and a series of day sailings, the shorter Komodo boat tour departures cover the signature circuit without the overnight commitment.
Other Signature Charter Experiences
Every voyage with Komodo Luxury is a private affair. From the handcrafted elegance of a traditional phinisi to the sleek performance of a modern catamaran, our fleet is curated for guests who expect nothing less than extraordinary. Choose your vessel, define your itinerary, and let the Indonesian archipelago unfold entirely on your terms.
The fleet behind this page: 9 owned vessels — led by Komodo Signature (78.2 m) — plus 200+ vetted partner liveaboards across VVIP, VIP, Deluxe and speedboat tiers, every one sailed with our own crews and standards. Fleet favourites include Navila, Elbark Cruise and Naturalia.
Batu Bolong, Castle Rock, Crystal Rock and Manta Alley anchor the dive programme from 7D6N upward; gear, divemaster and site windows are arranged at booking. Not certified? Every site pairs with a snorkel alternative.
Pink Beach's shallow reef, Taka Makassar's sandbar lagoon, Siaba Besar's turtles and the Manta Point drift — all four sit on every route from 3D2N up, no certification required.
The 2027 liveaboard calendar is open across the duration ladder above — and multi-night departures are the first to close, because cabins compound: one family booking removes four cabins at once. September-December 2026 remains the quiet stretch our crews recommend to returning guests: smaller groups, and mantas still at Karang Makassar (Komodo in September).
