Alila Purnama is a luxury yacht that operates between the remote islands of the Indonesian Archipelago, including Raja Ampat and Komodo. The 46-metre long yacht has been beautifully handcrafted in the traditional Phinisi style, used by seafarers from South Sulawesi. At its helm, is the Spanish born Mario Gonzalez Martin, an accomplished diver with extensive knowledge of dives sites across Indonesia. And, with a full-time 16-member crew, you have attentive service on hand.
Spread across three decks of Alila Purnama, are just five cabins, including a master suite, 2 double cabins and 2 twin cabins. All are elegantly furnished with part wood-panelled walls, plush beds draped in fine linen and custom-made teak and rattan furniture. Oversized daybeds, shaded by umbrellas on the main outdoor deck provide a perfect place to relax and enjoy the sea breeze. There is also a library lounge and bar with a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.
Facilities aboard Alila Purnama include a private chef who creates delicious contemporary dishes served in the air-conditioned dining room or on the outdoor deck. During the day, guests can explore the Komodo National Park, as well as the largely uninhabited islands. Water activities include diving, snorkelling, swimming with dolphins, manta rays and a see a whole array of multi-coloured tropical marine life. Back on board, you can succumb to the soothing signature Alila massage.

Location Alexa Private Cruise is docked in Flores, near Komodo National Park.
Getting there All expeditions require a short domestic flight from Bali to some of the smaller outlying islands in the Indonesian Archipelago. As a general rule, due to flight times, you will need to spend a few nights either side of the expedition in Bali. For the Raja Ampat expeditions, fly from Bali to Sorong. For Komodo Island expeditions, fly from Bali to Labuan Bajo.
When to go Straddling the equator, Indonesia tends to have a fairly even climate year-round. Rather than four seasons, Indonesia has two – wet and dry – and there are no extremes of temperature between winter and summer. Given the different climates throughout the archipelago, the vessel is able to operate different expeditions at different times of year. Between December and March, the Alila Purnama operates expeditions to explore the magical waters of Raja Ampat, and from April to November, the expedition changes course for the mythical island of Komodo.
