Soe Besar Vanrei VIP Charter for Komodo National Park

Soe Besar Vanrei is a VIP-class phinisi built for larger groups who want to keep the party and the boat on the same deck. Seven cabins accommodate up to 16 guests, the common areas include a jacuzzi and a proper karaoke room, and the dining layout is split across indoor and outdoor zones so meals can shift with the weather. Boat Komodo Trip runs the vessel as a private charter out of Labuan Bajo, with itineraries shaped to each group.

Cabins and sleeping arrangements

The seven cabins are named after fairytale figures and sorted by comfort level: Cinderela is the Master Suite Ocean, Tiana is the Master Ocean View, Mirable and Tinkerbell are Deluxe Ocean View rooms, Pocahontas and Mulan are Superior Cabins, and Merida is the Sharing Room that handles larger parties or kids grouped together. Every cabin runs air conditioning around the clock, and the mix of double and twin beds suits families, couples travelling together or corporate offsites.

Entertainment, dining and deck areas

The main deck carries an indoor dining area that seats the full group for plated meals, and a second outdoor table on the aft deck for casual dinners. A dedicated karaoke room and lounge keep the evenings lively. The top deck mixes daybeds, shaded chill-out zones and a jacuzzi that is the first stop for most guests after a long trekking day. The kitchen handles three meals a day with snacks between, along with unlimited water, coffee and tea.
