The vessel
Nataraja takes nine guests in four cabins, and she asks for at least four nights. Both numbers tell you what she is for: one family, or two couples travelling together, on a voyage long enough to reach somewhere a weekend could not.
From USD 4,830 a night for the whole boat, she is among the most affordable ways to have a crewed phinisi entirely to yourself in Indonesia — closer to the cost of a villa with staff than to a superyacht, for a week that looks nothing like either.
Nine guests is an unusual number. It means a family of five can bring grandparents and a cousin without splitting across two boats, and it means the dive deck never has a queue. Her four cabins include a master suite, and she carries diving equipment, snorkel gear, paddleboards and kayaks, with an Indonesian chef aboard.
She sails Komodo and Raja Ampat, the two waters her operator names — Komodo for the dragons and the pink beaches, Raja Ampat for the soft corals. The four-night minimum matters here: Komodo can be done in four, but Raja Ampat needs a week or more, and any honest broker will tell you so before you book flights.

Aboard
Four things to notice
1
A crew you remember
A crew who run the season, not the season's first charter. They know the bays you haven't asked about yet.
2
Galley, not menu
No printed card. Tell the chef one thing you love and one thing you hate. The rest is a kitchen, not a kitchen of compromise.
3
The third anchorage
The famous sites are famous for a reason. The quiet ones are why you charter privately. We plan for both.

Nothing to download
Charters are not booked through an app. Your concierge holds the dates, the captain confirms the route, and we send the file.
The voyage
Cruising grounds

Charter questions
How do I confirm a charter?
Send your dates and the brief — we hold them while the captain confirms the route. No card is taken at this stage. A signed charter agreement and a deposit — set by each vessel and confirmed in your proposal — confirm the booking; the balance is due before embarkation, per your charter agreement.
What is not included?
Fuel surcharge for the actual passage, port fees, food and beverage, marina dues, ground transfers, and travel insurance. We quote APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) up front so there are no surprises.
Can the itinerary be changed?
Yes. The route is a starting point — the captain runs the final call based on weather, your party's appetite, and what the season is doing. Most guests change something on day three.
How big should our party be?
Nataraja carries up to 9 guests across 4 cabins. Smaller parties get more space; larger ones still get a private charter.
