تجربة بوت فاخرة في كومودو
كانت رحلتي مع Princess Nabila Phinisi جزءًا من wellness retreat مع أربع صديقات، وكل شيء كان مُحكمًا بعناية. الـitinerary شمل Nusa Kode وTaka Makassar، حيث استمتعنا بجلسات يوغا على الشاطئ في الصباح، تليها سباحة هادئة بين الأسماك المرجانية. الـmaster suite كانت واسعة جدًا مع شرفة خاصة، وديكورها يمزج بين الفخامة البسيطة واللمسات التقليدية الإندونيسية. الطاقم كان دقيقًا دون أن يكون متطفلًا — نوع من الخدمة التي تشعرك أن كل شيء تم تنظيمه خصيصًا لك. وجبات الإفطار من المطبخ العربي المعاصر كانت مفاجأة سارة: كفتة بالزعتر مع لبنة طازجة. قارب بطول 33 مترًا يعطي شعورًا بالاتساع رغم وجود 18 ضيفًا، لكني أتمنى أن يكون الإنترنت أكثر استقرارًا خارج نقاط الرسو. في Padar Island، التقطت drone shot رائع من القمة، لكن الإشارة ضاعت بعد النزول. رغم ذلك، التجربة برمتها كانت متوازنة: لا مبالغة في الفخامة، ولا إهمال للتفاصيل. نحن نُخطط لرحلة أخرى، لكن مع إضافة يوم إضافي في Manta Point — السباحة مع الـmanta rays كانت الأجمل.

Diving Beyond Expectation in Komodo
As an experienced diver, I’ve explored many liveaboards, but the Princess Nabila Phinisi stands apart. Its 2024 build means every system is modern, from the dive platform to the compressor room. We dove at Taka Makassar and Batu Bolong—both sites teemed with life. At Taka, I hovered above the current line as eagle rays soared past; at Batu Bolong, a whitetip reef shark cruised beneath me. The dive guides were exceptionally knowledgeable, briefing us with precision and care. The yacht’s layout allowed for quiet decompression lounging on the upper deck, where I sipped ginger tea and watched the horizon. Cabins were spacious, though I’d love slightly better blackout curtains for deep rest. Still, the food—think miso-glazed tuna, local mango chutney—was Michelin-level. Princess Nabila balances adventure and indulgence perfectly, a true gem for discerning divers.
Seamless Luxury for Discerning Families
Taking our two children (ages 9 and 12) on the Princess Nabila Phinisi was one of our boldest travel moves—and the most rewarding. From the moment we stepped aboard, the crew treated the kids like junior explorers, with custom snorkel fittings and a treasure hunt at Long Beach that had them grinning for hours. The yacht’s layout is brilliant: three en-suite cabins ensured privacy, and the shaded upper deck was perfect for afternoon reading while the kids napped. At Kalong Island, we watched the bats spiral into the twilight—a moment of pure magic. The kitchen deserves applause: they prepared allergen-free meals without compromise, even crafting a birthday cake for our son mid-cruise. My only critique? A slightly steeper step between decks gave our youngest a moment’s pause, but the staff were instantly attentive. This isn’t just a boat; it’s a floating haven where family wonder is nurtured with grace and discretion.
Komodo, Crafted for Connoisseurs
The Princess Nabila Phinisi is a masterclass in nautical design. From the moment I stepped aboard in Labuan Bajo, I knew this wouldn’t be ordinary. The 33-meter hull exudes timeless grace, yet every amenity is contemporary—especially the ensuite bathrooms with rain showers. We explored Taka Makassar, where the current brought pelagics close, and Bidadari Beach, where I kayaked through glassy water. The dive team was impeccable—gear prepped, tanks filled, guidance precise. Evenings were elevated: wine pairings with seared duck breast, live jazz softly played under the stars. The crew remembered my preference for single-origin coffee by day two. My only suggestion? A small gym or yoga deck would make it perfect for longer charters. But as it stands, the Princess Nabila Phinisi is the gold standard in Indonesian luxury sailing.
家族での贅沢な4日間、完璧なバランス
Princess Nabila Phinisiでの家族旅行は、まさに理想的なラグジュアリー体験だった。子どもたち(8歳と11歳)にも十分なスペースがあり、crewの配慮が随所に感じられた。Bidadari Beachでは家族でカヤックを出し、Taka Makassarの周囲は透明度が高く、子どもたちも初のスノーケリングを楽しめた。船内はモダンなインテリアで、特に2階のmaster suiteはプライバシーが保たれていた。食事は毎回、地元の食材を使ったコンテンポラリーなプレゼンテーション。朝食のタパススタイルが特に印象的だった。wifiは島間で弱めだが、それもOFFになるにはちょうど良い。4日間は少し短く感じ、もう1日延長すればitineraryがもっとリラックスできた。Padar Islandのトレイルは少しキツいが、頂上からのdrone shotは価値あり。家族全員が『次は冬に来たい』と口を揃えるほど。日常の雑音から完全に解放された、静かで洗練された時間だった。

A Masterclass in Island Elegance
Sailing the Komodo archipelago aboard the Princess Nabila Phinisi was nothing short of transcendent. As a solo traveler, I craved both solitude and connection—this yacht delivered both effortlessly. The crew anticipated needs without intrusion, and the open-air lounge became my sanctuary with a book and a G&T as the sun bled into the horizon at Batu Bolong. Snorkeling at Crystal Rock was a revelation; the visibility was otherworldly, and the dive master took time to point out pygmy seahorses I’d have missed alone. My only minor note: the Wi-Fi, while understandably limited, could be clearer about availability upfront. Still, that disconnection became a gift. The cabin was a study in understated luxury—teak finishes, crisp linens, and blackout curtains that made for deep, restful sleep between stops. Dinner one night was set up on Bidadari Beach—tropical lanterns, fresh lobster, and the sound of waves. It felt less like a cruise and more like a private expedition with soul. For those seeking serenity wrapped in sophistication, this is it.

Private Getaway with Style
Sailing dengan Princess Nabila Phinisi itu seperti punya private island yang bisa bergerak. From ID, I value discretion and quality — and this yacht delivers. The woodwork, the linen, the way the staff folds your towel into a swan — everything screams elegance. We spent a full day at Gili Lawa, swimming, napping, just being. Then a surprise BBQ on Long Beach, curated by the chef. So personal. One note: more yoga/stretching sessions would be great for post-hike recovery. But overall, this is slow luxury at its finest. If you want to disconnect in style, this is your escape.

プライベート感が最高のハネムーン
『Princess Nabila Phinisi』での4日間は、まさにperfectなハネムーンでした。2024年に建てられたこのVIPクラスのphinisiは、33メートルの堂々としたボディに7つのキャビンを備え、特にmaster suiteの内装は和モダンとラグジュアリーが融合。Kalong Islandの夕暮れは印象的でしたが、Pink Beachでのシュノーケリングが圧巻。珊瑚礁と熱帯魚の群れが目の前を泳ぎ、まるでアクアリウムのよう。船のスタッフが朝食をビーチまで運んでくれるなど、ホスピタリティは一流。一点だけ言うなら、Wi-Fiはやや弱め。でもそれが逆にデジタルデトックスにはちょうど良かったかもしれません。ドローンショットで撮ったPadar Islandのパノラマは一生の宝物。また来年、記念日に戻りたい。

Escape dari Jakarta, Butuh Ini
As a busy lawyer in Jakarta, I need escapes that are truly disconnecting—Princess Nabila Phinisi offered exactly that. The design is minimalist luxury, no over-the-top gold or chandeliers, just clean lines and natural materials. We spent a full afternoon at Long Beach, walking for what felt like kilometers without seeing another soul. The sand is powdery, the water like glass. Later, we snorkeled at Batu Bolong—current was strong, but the guide stayed with us the entire time. The chef surprised us with a rijsttafel-style dinner one night—Indonesian classics with a modern twist. Loved the tempeh croquette with mango salsa. The only thing missing? Stronger Wi-Fi for quick email checks. But again, maybe that’s the point. The crew treated us like family, not guests. One night, they brought out telescopes and pointed out Orion’s Belt. Felt like we were the only people on earth. This is what slow travel should feel like.
