Samara 2 Cruise
Samara 2 is a traditional Phinisi reinterpreted for modern small-group cruising. The VVIP-class vessel carries up to 8 guests across 4 cabins and is built around open, light-filled interiors and a prominent sundeck. It runs 3D2N Open Trips and private charters from Labuan Bajo through Kelor, Padar, Komodo, Manta Point, Pink Beach, and Taka Makassar, keeping the guest count low enough for an intimate crew-to-guest ratio.
About Samara 2
Samara 2 is the modern sibling in the Samara line, with interiors styled to draw in natural light for a brighter, more relaxed onboard feel. The stylish main deck pairs traditional Phinisi carpentry with cleaner lines and softer finishes. The shaded foredeck is used as both a seating area and an outdoor gathering point for briefings, sunset drinks, and casual meals. Samara 2 works well for couples travelling together, small families, or two couples on a shared private charter who want VVIP-level privacy without a 14-guest liveaboard.
Onboard Facilities
Every area on Samara 2 is finished for comfort. The sun deck is the go-to spot for sunbathing and relaxing in open air with panoramic views of the Flores Sea. Indoors, a stylish lounge offers a cozy alternative when the sun is strongest or the wind picks up at anchor. The dining area serves plated meals prepared onboard, while the bar handles drinks for evening gatherings. The outdoor area gives guests a quieter space for reading or watching the horizon between stops, keeping social and private zones clearly separated.
Cabins and Capacity
Samara 2 offers 4 cabins sleeping up to 8 guests. The cabin names draw from Indonesian islands, with the Bali & Flores Room and the Sulawesi & Rote Room featured prominently. This capacity gives each guest noticeably more space than higher-capacity boats, which suits travelers looking for a relaxed pace and VVIP comfort. Groups can easily charter the whole boat without needing to fill every bed, keeping the trip private even for a party of 6 or fewer.
Trip Options from Labuan Bajo
The standard 3D2N Open or Share Trip on Samara 2 runs the full Komodo loop: Kelor Island, Manjarite, Kalong, Padar Island viewpoint, Pink Beach, Komodo Island dragon trek, Manta Point, Taka Makassar sandbar, and Sebayur. Private charters can extend to 4D3N or longer and can rework the order of stops based on weather. Because Samara 2 is a smaller VVIP boat, it handles quieter anchorages and shorter transit times well, giving private groups more flexibility during peak season when popular sites are crowded.
