Amandira — Aman’s 52m sailing phinisi | Labuan Bajo Boat Charter

Amandira is a 52-metre sailing phinisi launched for Aman in 2015, carrying up to 10 guests in five ensuite cabins — three king suites plus two bunk rooms. She charters privately for Komodo National Park out of Labuan Bajo, whole-boat only, with all pricing on request through our curation desk.

Built by Konjo boat builders in Sulawesi and run to Aman’s service standard, Amandira sits at the very top of the luxury yacht charter Komodo market. This is not a phinisi with a hotel logo bolted on: the crew, provisioning and guest handling follow the same playbook as Aman’s land resorts, which is why she is the boat we point to when a client asks what a true komodo superyacht charter feels like rather than a well-dressed liveaboard.

Kristo’s curation note

Amandira is the boat I recommend when the brief says two couples or a three-generation family and the budget conversation starts with service, not price. The honest tradeoff: her two bunk cabins are genuinely for kids or crew-adjacent guests, so treat her as a six-adult yacht and she never disappoints. She also books out far ahead — for peak season I want your dates six to nine months early.

Best for

  • Two couples or a family of six to ten who want Aman-level service afloat
  • Guests combining Komodo with an Aman resort stay elsewhere in Indonesia
  • Celebration charters where the crew quietly runs the whole event
  • First-time Indonesia sailors who want zero logistics friction

A typical 3D2N route in her class

A yacht of Amandira’s draft and pace runs the signature loop without hurrying it. Day one clears Labuan Bajo harbor for Kelor’s ridge walk and a first swim at Manjarite, anchoring near Kalong for the evening flying-fox exodus. Day two is the heart of the park: Padar’s sunrise ridge before the crowds, Pink Beach mid-morning, a ranger-guided dragon walk on Komodo Island, then Manta Point in the afternoon light. Day three closes with the Taka Makassar sandbar at low water and a slow sail home past Rinca. Longer itineraries unlock the south of the park — see our 3D2N Komodo charter page for how this loop is timed against park traffic.

Life on board

The cabin split is the thing to understand before you shortlist her. The three king suites are the yacht’s real estate: full beds, ensuite bathrooms, proper wardrobe space for a week afloat. The two bunk cabins are comfortable but honest bunks — ideal for children, teenagers or a guide travelling with the family, less ideal for a third and fourth couple expecting parity. Days run on the Aman rhythm: the crew reads the group early and stops asking questions you have already answered once. Meals move around the boat — breakfast aft, lunch on the beach the tender found that morning, dinner under the rig — and the water toys and tenders are handled by crew who set up before you think to ask. It is the difference between a boat with good service and a service company that happens to run a boat.

Amandira yacht price: how the quote works

Amandira quotes on request, on a whole-boat per-trip basis — there is no per-person rate and no shared-cabin option. The figure moves with season, itinerary length and route (Komodo versus a longer crossing), and it sits well above the deluxe phinisi class because provisioning, crew ratio and service standard are Aman’s. We hold no inflated rack rates on this page; message us with dates and we return the operator’s live quote, documented, usually within a day. Our operating team at Komodo Luxury — TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice 2022–2025 — handles the contracting and the park permits end to end.
