Malaillo is a 45-meter Indonesian liveaboard, a traditional Phinisi meticulously crafted from teakwood and ironwood, combining the region's age-old boat-building skills with modern comfort and safety. It accommodates up to 14 guests in seven cabins, comprising a mix of double and twin cabins, all air-conditioned with private en-suite bathrooms. The main deck has a twin cabin with easy access to the dining room, and the upper deck has an 18 m² master suite and a 13 m² twin cabin, both enjoying large windows with natural light.

Malaillo's social spaces are nicely laid out for relaxation and recreation. The air-conditioned indoor lounge is a comfortable spot to gather, and the outdoor dining area and large sun deck provide the potential for fresh-air meals and sunbathing. Guests can lounge on the roomy hammock deck atop the upper deck or merely sit back with a cocktail and enjoy the ocean views.

Onboard dining is full-board with a fusion of Asian and Mediterranean cuisine, buffet-style. Vegan and vegetarian dishes are also on offer, providing something for every taste. Once a trip, guests can partake in a barbecue night, which brings an element of celebration to the tour.

Diving is comfortable and organized because of the custom-built dive deck. Each diver has a personal dive station with gear storage, and tank filling is conducted on the deck. Two 100HP Yamaha-engine fiberglass tenders facilitate quick dive site transfers. Underwater photographers are given an air-conditioned camera room with a personal workstation, charging outlets, lights, and fans. Nitrox is available.

Safety is robust, with four life rafts for 60 passengers, smoke detectors, a fire alarm system, CCTV monitoring, and ENOS Diver Beacon Transmitters. There is also a desalination plant on the boat, so there is a freshwater supply for the trip's duration.

Itineraries encompass Indonesia's finest dive sites, with diving on vibrant coral reefs, walls, and an abundance of marine life, making it an ideal choice for divers who enjoy adventure combined with comfort. Raja Ampat, Komodo, Alor and Banda - all the most well-known diving destinations of Indonesia can be fount in the bot's schedule

Frequently Asked Questions About Malaillo

How do I reach boat’s embarkation points?

The simplest way of getting to Malaillo's ports of departure is by flying into one of Indonesia's major international airports, such as Jakarta (Soekarno-Hatta International Airport) or Bali (Ngurah Rai International Airport). From there, you can catch a domestic flight to the respective airport nearest to your cruise departure. You are recommended booking your return international flight one day following Malaillo's disembarkation, as Indonesian domestic flights can be delayed

When should I arrive or depart to join the liveaboard?

Arrival and departure times are dependent on the specific port of disembarkation or embarkation of your Malaillo cruise. Following are the recommended flight rules:
Raja Ampat - Sorong Airport (SOQ): Arrive latest by 11:00 AM for departures in Sorong. Book a flight in any time in case of disembarking in Sorong.
Ambon (AMQ), Manokwari (MKW), Ternate (TTE), Manado (MDC): Arrive no later than 14:00 on the day of departure. Departure flights can be booked for any time on the final day.
Maumere (MOF), Labuan Bajo (LBJ): Arrive no later than 13:00 on the day of departure. Departure flights can be booked for any time on the final day.
Bima (BMU): Arrive by 12:00 PM (noon) on the day of departure. Departure flights can be booked for any time after disembarkation.
After you have provided us with your flight information through the Malaillo guest booking form, we will arrange airport or hotel transfers on embarkation and disembarkation days to ensure your journey is as comfortable as possible

What is a typical day like on board, and how many dives can I do?

An ordinary day in Malaillo begins with a light breakfast followed by an in-depth briefing by the cruise director of the dive plan, places, and activities if scheduled. You having taken a fast tender to the dive location suit up and descend. The day is spent in a relaxed loop of "dive, eat, relax, repeat." Most days involve three or four dives, the fourth being occasionally a night or sunset dive. Occasional land excursions to explore surrounding islands or vantage points occur from time to time

What amenities are available for underwater photographers?

Underwater photographers will have a dedicated, air-conditioned camera room on the main deck, with each camera station for charging, extra towels, and sufficient lighting. This setup ensures that camera equipment is kept safe between dives

Can snorkelers join a Malaillo cruise?

Snorkelers are also welcome. Both tenders are snorkel and dive available. The cruise director will ensure that the snorkelers see suitable places with shallow reef tops. Snorkelers will not have personal guides unless booked as a chartered snorkeling excursion. Surface markers are, however, provided, and our speedboats and drivers remain in close proximity for safety

What is the dining experience like onboard?

The vessel offers a diverse dining experience with an early breakfast, full breakfast, lunch, afternoon snacks, and dinner every day. The meals are made fresh and offer a mix of local Indonesian and international cuisine. Special dietary requirements, including vegan and vegetarian dishes, can be accommodated with advance notice. Guests also have a special barbecue night to feature on every cruise. Due to the far-flung areas being hot-spotted, we recommend that guests carry along any special food or snacks they may need
