Celebrate an anniversary on a private boat in Komodo
Updated 26 October 2026
A Komodo anniversary private charter for family and friends fits Carnaby 1, up to 14 guests, with a balcony in the Master Cabin: 7 to 10 guests is IDR 73,000,000 (≈ USD 4,479) for 3D2N. Carnaby 2 takes up to 21 and adds a bathtub to its Master and Suite cabins. Decoration is quoted separately.
Whose anniversary: two people or the whole family
An anniversary on a private boat brings guests along: parents, children, close friends. Decoration, music and the dinner are requested and quoted separately.
For the couple alone, the whole boat is priced at the lowest band: Carnaby 1 for 1 to 6 guests is IDR 70,000,000 (≈ USD 4,294) for 3D2N. That's a lot of boat for two, which is why anniversary groups bring family and friends.
On Carnaby 1, six guests pay what two would. Once the list goes past 10, read on to see where Carnaby 2 starts to make sense.
Which cabin the anniversary couple takes
On Carnaby 1 the Master Cabin is the one: upper deck, ocean view, double bed with an extra bed, and the only balcony on the boat. On Carnaby 2 two Master cabins sit on the upper deck and two Suites on the main deck, each with an ocean view and a private balcony with a bathtub.
One Carnaby 2 photo shows a freestanding bathtub beside an open window with the anchorage behind it. Rose petals and glasses in that photo are staging and are not in the fare.
The cabin details are on Carnaby 1 cabins and Carnaby 2 cabins.
Name the cabin in your first message, and we hold it for the couple while the rest of the guest list firms up.
Run of show: dinner on deck at anchor
Day 1 ends the same way on either boat: Kalong at sunset, between 17:49 and 18:27 through the year, the bats about 15 minutes later, and dinner served on board. The stop order is the captain's call; the 3D2N page shows both routes.
The table on deck, flowers and a special dinner are arranged on request and quoted separately.

A 25th or 50th: the family on one boat
A 25th or a 50th gathers children, grandchildren and old friends. When there's a climb, older guests can skip the hill and stay at the anchorage, with the sundeck and the table to themselves.
The reunion page covers three generations on one deck, including which stops have an easy option. For a milestone year, tell us which one it is. A 25th and a 50th bring very different guest lists, and the guest list is what picks the boat.
The price for 8 and for 16
Eight guests on Carnaby 1 fall in the 7 to 10 guest band: IDR 73,000,000 (≈ USD 4,479) for 3D2N, whole boat. Seven to ten guests share one band, so a ninth or tenth guest costs nothing extra.
Sixteen relatives on Carnaby 2 fall in the 13 to 16 guest band: IDR 129,000,000 (≈ USD 7,914), or IDR 8,060,000 (≈ USD 494) per person. Thirteen to sixteen share one band.
Rates are the 2026 rates. Who pays for what: the fare covers the boat, the crew, the harbour transfer and the meals, with coffee, tea, water, snacks and fruit. You pay the park fees, flights, hotel, insurance, gratuities and alcohol. Decoration, a cake and a photographer are on request, quoted separately.

FAQ
Can we renew our vows on the boat?
Neither boat offers a ceremony package. A private moment on the sundeck at anchor is yours to plan with the guests you bring. Decoration, music or a photographer are requested and quoted separately, and the captain decides the spot and the timing on the day.
Which cabin is best for the anniversary couple?
On Carnaby 1 take the Master Cabin, the only one with a balcony; it sleeps 2 to 3 guests with its extra bed. On Carnaby 2 take a Master (upper deck) or a Suite (main deck): both have a private balcony with a bathtub for 2 guests.
Can we arrange a dinner on deck?
Dinner is one of the daily meals on both boats and is served at the deck table once the boat is at anchor. A special dinner and decoration are services we arrange; we quote them separately, and we confirm the setup and the headcount in writing.
What does an anniversary cost for 10 guests?
Ten guests on Carnaby 1 pay IDR 73,000,000 (≈ USD 4,479) for 3D2N, whole boat, or IDR 7,300,000 (≈ USD 448) each. Ten on Carnaby 2 pay the 1 to 12 band, IDR 118,000,000 (≈ USD 7,239). Park fees and extras are not included.
Is a 25th anniversary trip suitable for older parents?
Yes. Kelor takes 15 to 30 minutes uphill and Padar 25 to 45 minutes, and both are optional. Older parents can stay on the boat while the group climbs; the sundeck, the deck table and the air-conditioned cabins are on board for them.
