Andamari sits in the boutique tier of the Komodo luxury phinisi fleet: large enough for three families or a full 12-guest group, small enough to anchor in the quieter bays that bigger vessels pass by. Her core numbers:
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Custom-built traditional phinisi |
| Length overall | 30 m |
| Beam | 7.95 m |
| Draft | 3 m |
| Guest cabins | 6 — all air-conditioned, all ensuite with hot water |
| Max overnight guests | 12 |
| Crew | 8–9 |
| Launched | 2019 |
| Cruising speed | 8–10 knots |
| Tankage | 9,000 L fuel · 4,000 L water |
The number that matters most on a multi-day charter is the crew-to-guest ratio: 8–9 crew for a maximum of 12 guests means a dedicated cook in the galley, service crew on deck, and boat crew handling anchoring, tenders and snorkel drops without guests ever waiting.
All six cabins are air-conditioned with ensuite bathrooms and hot water — a master cabin plus a mix of doubles and twins, several with sea views. That layout works equally well for a couples group taking three or four cabins or a multi-generation family filling the boat.
Shared spaces split between an indoor dining room and lounge — with a bar and flat-screen TV for the rare rained-out hour — and three sundecks set with sofas and bean bags. Most guests eat nearly every meal outdoors: breakfast underway to the morning anchorage, lunch after snorkeling, dinner at anchor under a dark-sky horizon. Meals are cooked on board by the boat’s own chef, and the standard Komodo charter format applies: the boat, crew, fuel for the agreed route, all meals, drinking water and snorkel gear are included in the charter rate.
Like most named luxury phinisi, Andamari’s owner prices each charter individually, so published rate cards are rare. The reliable way to budget is by boat class — 30-meter, 6-cabin luxury phinisi in Komodo cluster in a consistent band:
| Item | Figure |
|---|---|
| Indicative nightly rate, 30 m luxury phinisi class | USD 2,500–4,500 per night |
| Per-guest equivalent at 12 guests | USD 210–375 per person per night |
| Included | Boat, crew, fuel for the standard route, all meals, water, snorkel gear |
| Excluded | Park fees (≈ IDR 400,000–550,000 per person per day), alcohol, diving, crew tips |
Season moves the number: July–August and holiday weeks command premium rates, while shoulder months (April–June, September–November) pair calmer pricing with the best sea conditions. Park fees are always billed separately — see the Komodo National Park fees guide for the current per-person figures.
At a cruising speed of 8–10 knots, Andamari runs the classic Komodo liveaboard circuit at a relaxed pace — the same route day boats compress into a single rushed loop:
Groups with more time extend the same route north to quieter anchorages — the 3-day, 2-night Komodo itinerary shows the day-by-day template most first-time charters start from.
Within the luxury phinisi category, Andamari is the boutique option: newer (2019) and more intimate than the large expedition phinisi, without the superyacht pricing of the 50-meter class. For a fully crewed flagship at the top of the market, compare Dunia Baru — 51 meters, 7 cabins and an 18-person crew at a weekly rate roughly ten times Andamari’s class. For the full picture across phinisi, motor yachts, liveaboards and speedboats, start from the charter fleet overview or the consolidated Komodo yacht charter hub.
KomodoBoatCharter is a boat charter group operating in Komodo National Park since 2015, offering phinisi, yacht, liveaboard and speedboat charters, under parent company Komodo Luxury (komodoluxury.com). Booking Andamari works like any vessel in the group: send your dates and group size, receive a route proposal and firm quote, confirm with a deposit — and the operator files your Komodo National Park permits through the SiORA system so entry is arranged before you board. High-season weeks (July–August) on named boats go early; enquire 3–6 months ahead for first choice of dates.
Andamari’s exact rates are quoted on request. Comparable 30-meter luxury phinisi in Komodo typically charter for USD 2,500–4,500 per night, with final pricing set by season, route length and inclusions such as diving.
Andamari sleeps up to 12 guests in 6 air-conditioned ensuite cabins, looked after by a crew of 8–9 — one of the higher crew-to-guest ratios in the 30-meter phinisi class.
Yes. All 6 cabins are air-conditioned and ensuite with hot water. Deluxe and luxury phinisi like Andamari offer private bathrooms as standard, while budget boats use shared facilities.
Yes — July–August and holiday dates command premium rates, while shoulder and wet-season months bring discounts and more availability. April–June and September–November combine calm seas with better pricing.
Andamari is a custom-built 30-meter phinisi launched in 2019. She cruises at 8–10 knots and carries 9,000 liters of fuel and 4,000 liters of water for multi-day Komodo routes.
