A traditional wooden phinisi built in south Sulawesi, the Queenesia liveaboard was custom-built for fantastic dive and adventure cruises in Komodo National Park. Catering to just 8 guests, the Queenesia creates a feeling of comfort in 3 well-equipped cabins. Each room has storage space, charging ports, individually controlled AC, and private en-suite bathrooms. Flexible bedding configuration, which includes a double cabin, a twin cabin, and a quad cabin, is perfect for a small-group charter of family or friends. The large main-deck area is ideal for relaxing in-between activities, enjoying the sea breeze, or taking in the beautiful sunrise or sunset.

Excellent
I had a pleasant time with queenesia. It's not the most luxurious boat but it is very comfortable. I am very lucky to have a boat of diver with similar dive profile. So we explore dive sites with the maximum time allowed. This also allows us to see a healthy Komodo! There was engine issues with generators which others has brought up before. I think management need to take some time back to have the generator serviced rather than having trips from back to back.

I would love to come aboard again.
The facilities on the boat were simple, but they were more than sufficient for a trip focused on diving. Our guide was exceptionally skilled and helped us find many rare marine creatures. Safety was clearly a top priority, and I felt completely comfortable diving at every site. The meals were mainly Indonesian cuisine, but I personally found them delicious. The trip also included a stunning hike in Komodo and an opportunity to observe Komodo dragons, making the entire experience truly fulfilling.

We would book the Queenesia again in a heartbeat.
The crew did everything to make it possible for us to have a perfect stay. The selection of diving spots, the guiding under water, the service on board were a dream. The ship is very nice and you have a large covered outdoor area where you can be protected from rain and sun. The food was typical Indonesian cuisine and very tasty and rich. The cabins are basic but have air conditioning. We were able to go on nice hikes on the islands and even do a bit of fishing in the evening.

Great Diving Aboard a No-Frills Boat
My girlfriend and I had a great time on the Queenesia II for a six-day tour of Komodo. The crew was always positive, fun, and friendly, and they always accomodated us as best as they could. The itinerary covered everything you want out of Komodo, including land-based activities like komodo dragon hiking and pink-sand beach. The dive sites were lackluster at times but other times it was some of the best I've experienced. The boat is cozy and charming on deck, although the rooms were sparse at best. But considering how much we paid, overall it was a great value. Shout out to our Cruise Director Ricky, Divemaster Elon, and Gilbert for making it a memorable trip.

We thoroughly enjoyed this liveboard. The friendly atmosphere and the crew made us feel special and very safe. The dive guide, Za, is excellent and very attentive, and so was the dive master, Bretske. Vivi overviewed the trip with great professionality and a great sense of humor. We all loved the food selection that Richard cooked for us. Komodo Islands are wonderful for diving, of course, but are also a special place to visit on land. Wonderful sunsets and an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

Epic Komodo national park diving
If you are looking for a no frills live aboard but with all of the important stuff like dive master , sites to dive and great and knowledgeable crew then this might be the boat for you. We were lucky and out of a possible 8 people , only two of us made the journey ..: and it was just perfect. The liveaboard continued with no changes, just a lot more flexibility and even more close attention to our needs (7 crew to 2 of us). We did everything we needed, we saw all of the animals that we came for (mantas,sharks,turtles, frog fish, nudibranches etc etc it was fab. Also food was better than expected with lots of local and fresh food.

Amazing diving, excellent value
While the boat is not the most comfortable, the diving is excellent and Ed the dive guide was the best we ever had. There is no hot water in the cabin bathroom, but aircon worked fine. During our liveaboard, there were only four guest, us included. If the boat is full, it might get a little cramped. Food was also great. We felt we got amazing value for money, liveaboard is definetely the best way to do Komodo, we had even the popular divesites almost to ourselves, as the boat got there first. We had a crew of 8 who were amazing and so friendly.

A trip to remember..
This was one of the best weeks of diving my partner and I have ever had. We were welcomed onboard by the most amazing, friendly, happy boat crew. They were there whenever you needed anything, always happy to help with a smile - could not have wished for a better boat crew. My partner was a little ill for a day during the trip, but they had everything she needed onboard and were super attentive. The diving was nothing short of incredible. The dive masters, Edmond and Rickie, were fantastic. They did v good briefings, great in the water, took their time during the dive, felt very safe - zero complaints - they made the trip very memorable. Food was great with prepared snacks in between dives too, there was never a moment either of us were hungry! The treks to see Komodo dragons and sunrise were very nice too. 100% would recommend and we will definitely be going again! Thank you for the amazing trip

Great encounters in Komodo and comfortable boat
The trip was great, we were very lucky to see mantas and sharks very close and for a long period of time. We did south Komodo because the north was closed due to the weather in December. Visibility was good. The crew and the other guests made me have an amazing time, we did karaoke at night, snorkel with sharks... The boat is quite big and clean. The rooms are very comfortable. Everything was well organized, also the trekkings.

The meals and snacks were delicious, and the crew were attentive and friendly. We rented diving equipment and used it, but all the equipment was in very good condition.

A magical trip with excellent staff
I cannot say enough great things about this trip. The diving was incredible and the schedule was perfectly planned. But what makes this trip so unforgettable was how the staff went above and beyond in every aspect. Above all, they made sure we were safe and cared for. Our gear was perfect, the briefings were clear, the dive masters ensured our safety as well as our fun. I would not have seen 90% of the things I did without Mr. Edmond guiding us. Edmond and Vicky were such amazing guides and had such a great sense of humor. The rest of the staff was unbelievable, the Ryans, Gaspar, Mr. Chef, Captain, everyone was top tier. They made even mundane things enjoyable and had such enthusiasm and passion. I really cannot say enough great things, because every moment was perfect. And in the end the staff did everything they possibly could to make sure we saw a Manta Ray and on our final dive we did! This trip was magical. I would highly recommend.
