Private Komodo to Lombok Cruise with Komodo Yacht Charters

Komodo Yacht Charters, part of Juara Holding Group, has operated private departures from Labuan Bajo since 2015. Our team arranges bespoke Komodo to Lombok cruise itineraries on fully crewed phinisi, motor yachts, catamarans and superyachts, combining the best of Komodo National Park with a relaxed island-hopping passage west to Lombok.

Every voyage is a private charter: your group, your dates, your vessel. We design the crossing around your priorities – diving, relaxed bays, family exploration or a discreet repositioning between Komodo and Lombok to connect with villas or private jets.

Yacht Options for Komodo – Lombok Crossings

You can sail your Komodo to Lombok cruise on several yacht classes, depending on comfort level, group size and how fast you prefer to travel:

  • Traditional phinisi liveaboards (Deluxe to ultra-luxury), ideal for 6–18 guests who want classic Indonesian style and generous cabin layouts.
  • Modern motor yachts for 4–10 guests prioritising speed, contemporary interiors and shorter passages between islands.
  • Catamarans for families or groups wanting stable platforms, wide decks and shallow-draft anchorage options.
  • Superyachts for VVIP groups, multi-generational travel or corporate travel, with full privacy, toys and concierge-level service.

We work across VVIP, VIP and Deluxe tiers. At the top end, our ultra-luxury phinisi charter options are suitable for guests who expect fine dining, large master suites and full expedition support (dive guides, tenders, sea kayaks and more).

Indicative Pricing: Komodo to Lombok Cruise & Related Charters

Charter pricing is always for the entire boat, not per cabin, and varies by vessel, season and group size. We confirm each quote individually on WhatsApp. As a guide:

  • 1-day Komodo speedboat charter: from around USD 400 for the whole boat, typically 4–8 passengers for park highlights from Labuan Bajo.
  • 2D1N private phinisi in Komodo: about USD 200–350 per person when a group of 8 shares a Deluxe-category boat.
  • Motor yacht charters (daily rate): typically USD 1,500–3,000 per day for the full vessel, often working out to roughly USD 250–500 per person depending on group size.
  • Superyachts (daily rate): usually USD 5,000–12,000 per day, approximately USD 830–2,000 per person with a full group.
  • Bali to Komodo crossings (7–10 days): generally USD 7,000–15,000 for the full boat for repositioning-style voyages; Komodo–Lombok crossings tend to fall in a similar budget envelope, depending on the exact route and yacht tier.
  • Private superyachts by the week: typically from USD 50,000 per week for VVIP yachts serving Komodo, Lombok and beyond.
  • Ultra-luxury phinisi tier: commonly USD 15,000+ per night for the highest-end Indonesian sailing yachts.

All figures above are indicative only. Your precise Komodo to Lombok cruise quotation is customised and confirmed directly with our sales team on WhatsApp once we lock in yacht, dates, route and guest count.

Sample Itineraries: From Labuan Bajo to Lombok

Our specialists treat each crossing as a bespoke expedition. Typical durations:

  • 4–5 days: focused Komodo highlights plus fast transit to Lombok on a performance motor yacht.
  • 6–7 days: balanced Komodo to Lombok cruise with time for snorkelling, island visits and quieter anchorages off Sumbawa.
  • 8+ days: extended exploration combining Komodo, Sumbawa and hidden bays approaching Lombok, ideal for photographers and divers.

A 6–7 day private Komodo to Lombok itinerary might include:

  • Labuan Bajo departure and sunset at anchor near Sebayur or Kalong.
  • Padar viewpoints and pink sand beaches.
  • Snorkelling with manta rays at sites that match the seasonal manta calendar.
  • Komodo or Rinca ranger-led walks to view Komodo dragons (subject to park regulations current at the time of writing, reconfirmed before departure).
  • Overnight passages along Sumbawa’s volcanic coast, with selected stops for surfing, fishing or village visits.
  • Final days approaching Lombok, with Gili islands options if sea and port conditions are favourable.

If you are combining your voyage with Bali, our specialists can connect your Lombok arrival with villa stays, flights or helicopter options, and design seamless combinations such as a Bali villa & Komodo yacht itinerary.

How the Booking Process Works

Komodo Yacht Charters operates as a specialised charter house and broker for Labuan Bajo and Eastern Indonesia, with an on-the-ground team and a curated fleet list. The process for a Komodo to Lombok cruise is straightforward:

  • 1. Discovery call or WhatsApp – Share your dates, guest count, preferred yacht style (phinisi, motor yacht, catamaran, superyacht) and rough budget.
  • 2. Shortlist & proposal – We present 2–4 suitable vessel options with indicative pricing, sample itineraries and inclusions, guided by principles outlined in our Komodo yacht charter broker guide.
  • 3. Itinerary refinement – Together we refine the day-by-day flow, discussing park access, diving/snorkelling density, family needs and any special events or celebrations on board.
  • 4. Contract & deposit – Once you choose a yacht, you receive a full charter agreement. A deposit secures your dates; the balance is typically due before embarkation according to the contract terms.
  • 5. Pre-cruise planning – Our concierge team assists with flights, hotel nights in Labuan Bajo, optional yacht helicopter transfers or private jet connections, and coordinates dietary and activity preferences with the crew.
  • 6. On-ground support – From 2015 onward we have operated Labuan Bajo departures with dedicated local staff to assist with boarding, last-minute adjustments and coordination with park authorities.

Frequently Asked Questions about Komodo to Lombok Cruises

How many days do I need for a Komodo to Lombok cruise?

We usually recommend at least 4–5 days for a Komodo to Lombok cruise on a motor yacht, and 6–7 days if you prefer a more relaxed pace on a phinisi or catamaran with multiple snorkelling and island stops. Longer crossings (8+ days) allow additional dive days, Sumbawa exploration and more flexible routing if weather requires adjustments.

What is included in the charter price?

Inclusions vary by yacht, but most vessels in our network include yacht hire, crew, standard fuel for the agreed itinerary, meals on board, non-alcoholic drinks and basic use of water toys. Diving, premium wines and spirits, special tenders or extended fuel for significant deviations are often additional. To understand how these components affect your budget, review our notes in APA & yacht charter in Indonesia explained.

Are Komodo National Park fees included?

Komodo National Park fees and regulations are subject to change and are always described as current at the time of writing, then reconfirmed before your departure. Some yachts include these fees in their charter rate, others list them as a separate, pass-through cost. Our team will outline the approach clearly in your specific proposal and can provide a reference overview via Komodo park fees for yacht guests.

Is a Komodo to Lombok cruise safe for children and older guests?

Yes, provided vessel selection and itinerary are tailored correctly. We favour stable yachts with suitable cabin layouts for families, avoid exposed overnight passages with very young children, and adjust activities (for example, shorter hikes instead of long ridge climbs). Safety guidelines, briefings and lifejacket availability are standard across the vessels we recommend.

Which season is best for a Komodo to Lombok cruise?

Most guests prefer the drier months broadly surrounding June–September for calmer seas and better visibility, though shoulder seasons offer quieter anchorages. Your ideal window will also depend on manta and marine life preferences; our best time to visit Komodo by yacht and manta calendar pages provide detailed seasonal guidance.

Can I start in Lombok and finish in Komodo instead?

Yes. Many itineraries can be operated in either direction, subject to yacht positioning and schedule. Depending on where the yacht is coming from or heading next, it may be possible to secure advantageous rates that resemble repositioning or empty-leg conditions. Our team will advise on any such opportunities at the quotation stage.

How far in advance should I book?

For peak dates such as regional holidays and year-end, we recommend confirming your Komodo to Lombok cruise 6–12 months in advance, especially for superyachts and ultra-luxury phinisi. Our planning notes at when to book a Komodo charter and Komodo yacht high-season premiums can help frame expectations for availability and pricing.
