    • Rate notes

      Elrora sells both a scheduled shared trip and private charters. The current operator shared product is 3 days / 2 nights. Published cabin prices are IDR 11,500,000 per person for the Master Cabin, IDR 9,750,000 for Panoramic Ocean, IDR 7,500,000 for Superior, and IDR 6,500,000 for the Family Cabin. Using the project conversion rate of IDR 17,900 per USD and rounding to the nearest USD 5, the lowest complete shared trip is USD 365 per person.

      The current private-charter rate source publishes 2026–2027 group totals by trip length and headcount. The minimum real trip is 2D1N at IDR 81,000,000 for 1–5 guests, IDR 86,000,000 for 6–10, and IDR 91,000,000 for 11–16. The stored charter headline is therefore USD 4,525 for the minimum 2D1N whole-boat trip, not a nightly rate or a three-night equivalent. Longer published packages run through 5D4N.

      The operator's shared-trip page includes three meals daily, documentation by camera, GoPro and drone, snorkeling equipment, life vests, mineral water, coffee and tea, a professional guide, hotel/airport/harbour transfers, a speaker and karaoke set, and Starlink Wi-Fi. The boat amenities page also lists snacks and a paddleboard.

      The shared-trip page excludes flights, Labuan Bajo hotel stays, alcohol, travel insurance and personal expenses. The private-charter rate source additionally lists Komodo National Park fees, crew gratuities and charter documentation as separate, so documentation should be reconfirmed when booking a private trip.
