Plataran Phinisi Malayeka is a 37.8-metre private-charter phinisi built in South Sulawesi in 2021 for cruising Komodo National Park. The vessel accommodates up to 14 guests in seven ensuite, air-conditioned cabins: one Master Cabin with a bathtub and private deck, two Double Cabins, two Twin Cabins and two Bunk Cabins.
Guest spaces include an indoor living room, lounge and dining area with a private bar, an expansive outdoor deck with daybeds and open-air dining, and entertainment facilities. The published service concept includes a private chef, butler, divemaster, yoga instructor and spa therapist. Kayaks, paddleboards, snorkeling gear and diving equipment are available, while diving packages are charged separately.
Komodo itineraries are flexible from three days and can include Rinca, Padar, Komodo Island, Pink Beach, Kanawa and Bidadari.

Komodo National Park tickets, flights, insurance, alcohol, diving packages, Nitrox, spa treatments, laundry and gratuities are extra.
A Malayeka-specific 2026 charter rate is not currently published by Plataran.
