Highlights
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. The onboard cook freshly prepares food customized to guests' tastes. A range of local vegetables, fruit, fresh fish, and a mix of European-inspired and healthy dishes is served.
With flexible itineraries, cruises combine the perfect balance of diving and non-diving activities. Dive with reef sharks, turtles, and manta rays on one day and hike to beautiful viewpoints, walk along pristine beaches, and enjoy island-hopping the next. The large tender makes getting to and from the dive sites nice and easy, and small groups ensure a stress-free dive experience.

Excellent dives, simple but comfortable!
If you want to experience excellent diving in Komodo with small dive groups, great dive guides, amazing nature and friendly crew than this is the liveaboard for you! We did 17 amazing dives, one dive we were the only boat there and saw 15 manta rays all to ourselves! We came in late November and the weather had turned for the season so we were unable to dive the north west of the island however the crew changed plans and made sure to give us great dives! Ed is a passionate dive master and excellent finding all sorts of creatures! I am a marine biologist/ big fish nerd and he took time identifying species with me after each dive and working out what I wanted to find next! The boat is simple but has whatever you need, we only had 5 people on board which was stellar. I have food allergies and the cook made sure I always had things to eat. An extra bonus is the two treks you do, we always went at a great time when there were not many other people! If you want a luxurious boat and food this isn't the liveaboard for you, but if you want to live the 'eat, sleep, dive, repeat' moto and see incredible nature, be sure to book this trip!

- The dive guide Ed was incredible, he obviously is super passionate about what he does. He spent time finding all the fish I was looking for and we talked about them before and after each dive!. Price is really great for the service and dives that you get. A mix of amazing dive sites with days that you dive 4 times and also a day with 2 dives and some trekking!.

Excellent!
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!

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.

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.
