    Master balcony cabins, large double beds and shared bunk berths

    Cruising Areas

    Komodo cruises

    Komodo National Park out of Labuan Bajo, pick-up eight to ten in the morning.

    Route details

    The published package is a single 3D2N loop: Kelor for the trek and Rinca for the dragons on day one, closing at Kalong for the flying foxes; Padar at first light on day two, then Pink Beach, Manta Point and Taka Makassar; a final snorkel on day three before returning to port.

    At seven to eight knots she is on the slower side of this tier, so the schedule is tight rather than leisurely.

    Who This Suits

    Suits: couples looking for large double beds and a private balcony in a master cabin.

    Also works for: solo travellers and friends booking a berth in a sharing cabin on a scheduled 3D2N trip.

    Consider before booking: the published private package is 3D2N. Ask the operator about other durations. No dedicated diving package or onboard compressor is documented.

    About This Vessel

    Aimar Cruise is a traditional phinisi built in 2024, with a 27-metre body plus a seven-metre bowsprit, a six-metre beam and 136 gross tons. Seven cabins carry up to twenty-two guests.

    The bed sizes are what stand out. Both master cabins and both deluxe cabins have double beds measuring 200 by 200 centimetres. The masters add private balconies, and all four are sea-view cabins.

    Below those sit two sharing cabins, each with four single bunk beds of 120 by 200 centimetres, and one superior cabin on the same bunk arrangement. That gives solo travellers and friends a berth without buying a whole room, and it is where most of the twenty-two-guest capacity comes from.

    She carries twelve tons of water, runs a Mitsubishi 8DC11 at seven to eight knots with two 40 kVA dynamos, and navigates on GPS, AIS, radio and sonar. Safety equipment covers two twenty-five-person life rafts, life jackets, life buoys, fire extinguishers and first aid kits.

    Onboard there is full air conditioning, hot water showers, an indoor dining area, TV and karaoke, a mini bar and a rooftop deck. There is no dive centre, compressor or diving package.
