    Zada Zen phinisi exterior in Komodo National Park

    Zada Zen

    The master gets the balcony and the royal gets the bathtub, so the top two rooms trade features rather than rank

    Cruising Areas

    Komodo

    Zada Zen follows the standard three-day Komodo circuit from Labuan Bajo, combining Kelor, Manjarite and Kalong with Padar, Pink Beach, Komodo Island, Taka Makassar, Manta Point and Siaba or Sebayur. Shared departures use a fixed structure, while private charters allow more flexibility in the order and pace of stops.

    Who This Suits

    Best suited to couples, families and friend groups that want a six-cabin phinisi with private sea-view rooms. The standard operator layout is for 12 guests; selected shared departures advertise capacity up to 13 with the departure-specific sleeping arrangement.

    About This Vessel

    Zada Zen is a deluxe phinisi in the Zada fleet, designed for small-group Komodo sailings. The vessel has six private sea-view cabins with a standard operator layout for 12 guests, while current scheduled shared inventory is sold for up to 13 guests using the departure-specific sleeping setup. The boat uses traditional hardwood construction, a Mitsubishi marine engine and a published cruising range of roughly 7 to 12 knots.

    The cabin plan centres on three room categories. One Master Cabin adds a private balcony, sea view and bathtub; one Royal Cabin adds premium sea-view features; and four Suite Cabins complete the six-room layout. Air conditioning and private bathrooms are published across the guest accommodation.

    Zada Zen is sold both by cabin on scheduled 3D2N departures and as a whole-vessel private charter. Snorkeling, trekking, island hopping, kayaking and paddleboarding are the core Komodo activities represented on this listing.

    Komodo is the verified cruise area, with Labuan Bajo as the departure base. Shared capacity and private-charter capacity can differ by one guest depending on the extra-bed setup, so groups of 13 should confirm the exact cabin allocation before payment.
