How to book

Beyond charter

Owning one
is a different budget.

Chartering and commissioning are separate decisions. A custom phinisi starts with a design consultation where your layout, specification and amenities are set down in detail, before any build price is issued.

A luxury new build is a long-term, multi-million-dollar commitment, priced by size, materials and fit-out. Our build packages set out indicative bands by length.

Charter for the trip; build for the years after it.

FAQ

Pricing
questions.

All figures are indicative and reconfirmed in your written quote.

How much does a phinisi charter cost per day?

From about USD 6,500 a day for a smaller yacht to over USD 22,000 for a flagship phinisi in high season. Season, vessel and trip length set the final figure.

When are rates highest?

In peak season, roughly May to September. April, October and November are often a little more accessible, with the archipelago still at its best.

Are fuel and park fees included?

Yes. Fuel for the planned itinerary and Komodo National Park entrance fees are part of the base rate, along with crew, meals and water-sports gear.

What costs extra?

Alcohol, specialised dive gear and courses, massages, photographers, fishing trips, naturalist guides, helicopter transfers and laundry are quoted separately.

How far ahead should I book?

Eight to twelve months ahead is recommended for set dates or larger vessels.

What happens if I cancel?

Typically half the charter fee is forfeited for cancellations within 60 days of departure, and the full fee within 30 days. Travel insurance is strongly recommended.

Can I pay by card?

Yes. Bank transfer and major credit cards are accepted; card payments may carry a processing fee of about 2–3%.
