생일 기념으로 탄 피니시, 최고의 선택이었어요
40th birthday를 맞아 Princess Nabila Phinisi에서 3박 trip을 계획했어요. 오직 저와 best friends 4명뿐인 friends getaway으로서, 이 boat은 luxury와 privacy를 동시에 충족시켜 줬어요. Rinca Island에서의 trekking은 wild하면서도 majestic했고, guide가 Komodo dragon을 자연 상태에서 안전하게 관찰할 수 있도록 리드해주셔서 좋았어요. Manta Point에선 swim도 했는데, mantas가 정말 gracefull하게 우리 주위를 뱅글뱅글 돌았어요. drone shot으로 찍은 영상은 now my pride in Instagram. 모든 meal이 chef’s tasting menu처럼 thoughtfully composed였고, especially the grilled lobster with lemongrass butter는 next level이었어요. 다만, 마지막 날인 Castle Rock에서의 diving time이 다소 짧았던 게 아쉬웠어요—다음엔 꼭 one more day 추가하고 싶어요. crew들이 예약된 spa treatment도 정확히 timing 맞춰 준비해 줘서, 생일 감성도 완벽하게 살았죠. 자연과 luxury가 조화된 진짜 authentic한 experience.
Family Time, Far From the Noise
Taking our three children—ages 7 to 13—on the Princess Nabila Phinisi was a leap of faith. It paid off. The crew had games, snorkel guides who doubled as kid-charmers, and even a floating trampoline off the stern. We spent a morning at Bidadari Beach, building sandcastles and spotting reef sharks in the shallows. One afternoon, the captain rerouted slightly so we could watch the Kalong Island bat colony emerge—it felt like a private nature documentary. Cabins were spacious enough for family spread, and the air-con worked flawlessly. Meals were varied—my youngest ate grilled mahi-mahi without complaint, which is saying something. Wi-Fi was spotty, but honestly, we didn’t miss it. Only thing? A dedicated kids’ activity sheet for longer sails would’ve helped. Still, rare to find luxury that doesn’t sacrifice authenticity.

Luxo sereno nas ilhas Komodo
A experiência a bordo do Princess Nabila Phinisi foi exatamente o que precisávamos após meses intensos em Paraty. Escolhemos o roteiro de 4 dias como parte de nosso wellness retreat, buscando paz e imersão na natureza — e encontramos ambas em cada detalhe. O master suite, com deck privativo, permitiu momentos íntimos ao som das ondas, especialmente na noite ancorados perto de Kalong Island, onde milhares de morcegos voam ao pôr do sol — um verdadeiro drone shot da vida real. A parada em Batu Bolong foi perfeita para snorkeling leve, com águas calmas e cardumes vibrantes, ideal para desacelerar. A equipe entendeu o tom da viagem: discreta, atenciosa, nunca intrusiva. O café da manhã com frutas locais e pães artesanais servido no bow foi um ritual que espero replicar em casa. Um leve ponto de melhoria: o sinal de wifi é limitado — não é um problema para mim, mas alguém em viagem de trabalho pode sentir falta. Ainda assim, essa desconexão foi, em retrospecto, um presente. O barco, recém-lançado em 2024, tem linhas clássicas com toques modernos, e os 33 metros se expandem de forma surpreendente em conforto. Se o objetivo era renovação, o Princess Nabila Phinisi entregou com elegância silenciosa.
Princess Nabila的摄影奇遇
作为摄影发烧友，我策划这次Komodo国家公园的摄影expedition已久。Princess Nabila Phinisi完全超出了我的预期——尤其是那间顶层的master suite，落地窗正对日出方向，清晨自然光洒进来，简直是dreamy。我们在Taka Makassar停留了整整两个黄金时段，船长特别懂摄影节奏，提前半小时就定位，让我们抢到完美的逆光剪影。无人机升空那一刻，碧蓝海水与风化岩层交织，连调色都显得多余。唯一的minor critique是Wi-Fi信号在Kalung Island附近几乎归零，不过…这或许正是disconnect的本意？服务团队全程双语沟通流畅，每日 itinerary灵活调整，甚至为我延迟靠岸一小时补拍星轨。这趟4天3夜不仅是拍摄，更是一场视觉冥想。Princess Nabila重新定义了luxury liveaboard的质感。

مغامرة بحرية مع أصدقاء لا تُضاهى
أنا وزملائي من محبي الطبيعة والرُفاهية، وPrincess Nabila Phinisi وفّرت التوازن المثالي بين الاثنين. بدأنا الرحلة من Padar Island، حيث تسلقنا التلال لالتقاط صورة بانورامية مذهلة – لا شيء يُضاهي منظر البحر الأخضر الزمردي من الأعلى. ثم توجّهنا إلى Kanawa Island للسباحة مع السلاحف. الـcabin الخاص بي كان فاخرًا بحق، مع إضاءة خافتة وأثاث من خشب الأرو، مما يجعل الاسترخاء أمرًا لا مفر منه. الطاقم كان ودودًا وسريع الاستجابة، خاصة عندما طلبنا جلسة باربكيو خاصة على الشاطئ. الـdrone shot الذي صوّرته أثناء الغطس أصبح محتوى مثالي لإنستغرام. أتمنى لو أن الـitinerary ضمّن رينكا لفترة أطول – كان يمكننا رؤية الكومودو بطريقة أعمق. لكن كتجربة جماعية مع الأصدقاء؟ ممتازة. الرفاهية، الطبيعة، والمغامرة – كلها في مكان واحد.
Celebrating Love and Legacy at Sea
My fiftieth birthday unfolded on the Princess Nabila Phinisi like a dream I didn’t know I’d had. We began at Kalong Island, watching the bats spiral into dusk, then sailed to Pink Beach, where the sand glowed underfoot. The crew arranged a private dinner on deck—family-style, with dishes inspired by the archipelago. One afternoon, we kayaked to Sebayur Island, where the reef rose like a cathedral beneath us. The yacht’s newness is evident—clean lines, intuitive systems—but it’s the crew’s warmth that anchors the experience. My daughter, usually glued to her phone, didn’t touch it for four days. Only critique? More storage in the cabins. But that’s a small note in a week of profound presence.
Princess Nabila Phinisi 上的極致靜謐
這次30歲生日，選了 Princess Nabila Phinisi 安排 milestone birthday trip，與六位摯友從 Labuan Bajo 出發，走訪 Gili Lawa 和 Crystal Rock。船體是2024年全新打造，33米的 phinisi 設計融合傳統工藝與現代線條，尤其 master suite 的木紋拼接與隱藏收納，細節到位。Gili Lawa 的浮潛令人驚艷——水流穩定，珊瑚群密集，我們的 dive group 看到礁鯊與龜群巡游，導覽解說專業且低干擾。Crystal Rock 則是 drone shot 的絕佳點位，岩壁在夕照下泛著琥珀光，船長特意延後半小時停泊，讓我們拍夠。七間 cabin 容納25人仍顯寬敞，每早 fresh tropical fruits 與 cold-pressed juice 準時送上甲板。唯一小遺憾是 wifi signal 在外海偏弱，若想完全 disconnect 也算是一種 luxury。行程四天三夜剛好，若能增加半日探索 Batu Bolong 的潮間帶會更完整。整體 itinerary 設計有呼吸感，不趕景點，晚餐的 grilled lobster with truffle oil 與 sommelier 搭配的白葡萄酒，讓朋友連說『這才是 experience』。船員安靜而敏銳，總在需求出現前就準備好。下次帶孩子來，應該會是另一種靜謐。
A Birthday Anchored in Beauty
Turning forty on the Princess Nabila Phinisi was exactly the reset I needed. The week unfolded with a kind of gentle precision—waking in Nusa Kode’s sheltered bay, coffee on deck, then a guided snorkel through its coral ridges. One afternoon, we drifted past Kalong Island as the fruit bats began their exodus—a slow, graceful pulse into the twilight. The boat’s design balances elegance and ease: low-slung sofas, shaded lounging, and a galley that produced ceviche as crisp as any in Baja. My husband and I took a private paddle to Bidadari Beach at sunrise, the sand still cool underfoot. Staff remembered my favorite gin; that kind of attention lingers. Only wish? A longer itinerary. Four days felt like a prologue.

Family Adventure, Refined
Travelling with two young kids and my parents, I worried about pace. The Princess Nabila Phinisi balanced it perfectly. Days began with pancakes and ended with bathtime stories. We spent a full morning at Bidadari Beach—safe swimming, sandcastle contests, and a surprise visit from a curious monitor lizard. One afternoon, we motored to Sebayur Island, where the kids snorkeled alongside parrotfish and clownfish. The yacht’s layout meant grandparents had quiet corners, while children had freedom to roam under watchful eyes. The 2024 build feels fresh but not clinical—the woodwork has soul. Staff anticipated needs: extra towels, chilled water, even a spare inhaler when my son’s asthma flared. Only wish? A bit more variety in kids’ meals. Still, a rare win for multi-gen travel.
