The Malca Voyages 2D1N price, as of September 2026, is USD 5,300 for a private whole-boat charter with 1-12 guests, USD 6,000 for 13-18 guests, plus USD 250 for each guest above 18, according to Komodo Luxury’s official Malca page. The overnight trip is sold as a private package only; the shared cabin product is 3D2N.
Malca Voyages is a 30 m VIP-class phinisi built from iron wood and teak, owned and operated by Komodo Luxury with its own in-house crew, departing Labuan Bajo. Komodo Luxury notes its rates were checked on 11 September 2026. Treat every figure here as subject to change until the reservations team confirms your date.
What does each Malca Voyages private charter length cost?
The table below reproduces the private whole-boat rates Komodo Luxury lists for Malca. Its 2026 and 2027 rate tabs showed identical figures when read on 15 September 2026.
| Package | 1-12 guests | 13-18 guests | Each guest above 18 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2D1N | USD 5,300 | USD 6,000 | USD 250 |
| 3D2N | USD 6,000 | USD 6,700 | USD 300 |
| 4D3N | USD 9,000 | USD 10,050 | USD 450 |
Longer charters (5D4N to 7D6N) are on the full rates page. These prices apply to Malca only. Older rupiah listings for this boat on third-party sites are out of date, so ignore them.
How much is Malca Voyages 2D1N per guest?
Divide the package by headcount and the overnight trip gets cheaper per head as the group grows. Our arithmetic below uses Komodo Luxury’s table, rounded to the nearest dollar, before park fees and extras.
| Group size | Rate band applied | Package total | Approx. per guest |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 guests | 1-12 | USD 5,300 | USD 883 |
| 12 guests | 1-12 | USD 5,300 | USD 442 |
| 18 guests | 13-18 | USD 6,000 | USD 333 |
| 21 guests (full boat) | 13-18 + 3 extra | USD 6,750 | USD 321 |
Watch the step at guest 13. The package jumps by USD 700, so a group of 13 pays roughly USD 462 each, more per head than a group of 12. Past 18, each extra guest adds only USD 250 until Malca’s 21-guest limit.
Why is 2D1N only available as a private charter?
Komodo Luxury runs Malca’s shared (open trip) departures on a fixed 3D2N rhythm: Friday to Sunday and Monday to Wednesday, priced per person by cabin. There is no shared one-night product. A 2D1N trip means the whole boat, all seven cabins, is yours, with the date agreed with the desk subject to availability.
What could a 2D1N route on Malca look like?
Komodo Luxury does not publish a day-by-day 2D1N plan. The routing below uses only stops from its published 3D2N itinerary. It is indicative; the final route is set with the desk by weather and time.
Day 1
- Hotel or airport pick-up on the Labuan Bajo mainland, arranged 08:00-09:00
- Kelor Island trek
- Lunch on board
- Snorkelling at Manjarite
- Sunset at Kalong Island as the bats fly out
- Dinner on board
Day 2
- Early Padar trek (the 3D2N plan starts it at 06:00)
- Breakfast, then Pink Beach
- Komodo Island dragon trek
- Lunch and return to Labuan Bajo, with timing confirmed by the desk
Komodo Luxury states destinations may change for weather, field conditions or force majeure, and guests follow the guide on the day. Compared with 3D2N, the short trip drops Manta Point, Taka Makassar and the Sebayur snorkel.
Who is the 2D1N short escape right for?
- Travellers with tight flight schedules. Labuan Bajo (LBJ) has direct flights from Bali DPS (Garuda, AirAsia, Batik), Jakarta CGK (Garuda, AirAsia, Citilink, Batik) and Surabaya SUB (Batik, Super Air Jet), per Komodo Luxury. Check your arrival against the 08:00-09:00 pick-up before you book.
- Guests staying on the mainland. Pick-up covers hotels or the airport on the Labuan Bajo mainland near the harbour, not other islands or Manjaga.
- Families and company groups who want Padar, Pink Beach and the dragons without a second night.
- Groups of 10-12, where the per-guest cost falls to about USD 442-530.
Every one of Malca’s 7 cabins has a private bathroom and air conditioning. The Master Ocean View sleeps 4 with a private balcony, and there’s a jacuzzi, sunroof and a panoramic indoor lounge on board.
What is and isn’t in the 2D1N price?
| Included | Not included |
|---|---|
| Stay on board and meals | Komodo National Park fees (per government regulation at trip time) |
| Mineral water, coffee, tea | Optional park drone permit (request 7 days ahead) |
| Guide, snorkel gear, life vests | Crew gratuities |
| Raw drone, GoPro and mirrorless footage | Flights |
| Mainland hotel or airport pick-up and drop-off | Alcoholic and soft drinks, personal snacks, personal expenses |
Budget separately for park fees, tips and drinks. None of them are in the USD 5,300 figure.
When does 3D2N make more sense?
If you can spare one more night, the Malca Voyages 3D2N charter costs USD 700 more for the same group band (USD 6,000 for 1-12 guests). You gain Manta Point, Taka Makassar before sunset and a Sebayur morning snorkel. Couples and small parties can also join the shared 3D2N from USD 300 per person (Triple) to USD 580 (Master).
How does booking a Malca Voyages 2D1N charter work?
- Send your request. WhatsApp +62 811 3823 875 or email sales@komodoluxury.com with your date, “2D1N private” and guest count. Komodo Luxury says the desk replies within 24 hours.
- Confirm the details. The desk checks availability and confirms your rate band, indicative route and pick-up point.
- Pay the deposit. 50% secures the booking. Booking a year ahead? Pay 30% first, a further 20% 120 days before, and the rest 30 days before.
- Settle the balance. Pay no later than 30 days before departure; inside 30 days, pay in full.
- Prepare to sail. Request any drone permit 7 days ahead and be ready for your 08:00-09:00 pick-up.
Know the terms first: deposits are non-refundable, and a cancellation forfeits payment, though you may nominate a replacement guest. Force majeure can change or cancel a trip without refund. Bank charges fall on the sender, and guests are liable for lost or damaged gear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Malca Voyages 2D1N price per person or per boat?
It is per boat. The USD 5,300 figure covers the whole vessel for 1-12 guests, rising to USD 6,000 for 13-18 guests and USD 250 for each guest above 18, per Komodo Luxury’s September 2026 rates. Only the shared 3D2N trip is priced per person, from USD 300 to USD 580 depending on cabin.
How much does a 2D1N on Malca cost for just two people?
A private 2D1N is still USD 5,300 for two guests, because the package covers the whole boat for up to 12 people. Couples watching the budget often compare it with the shared 3D2N, where a Double Room is USD 400 per person and the Master Ocean View USD 580 per person, as of September 2026.
Does the 2D1N price include Komodo National Park fees?
No. Komodo Luxury lists park fees as excluded and charged according to government regulation at the time of your trip, so the amount can change. Crew gratuities, alcoholic and soft drinks, personal snacks, flights and the optional park drone permit are also outside the USD 5,300 package.
Do children count toward the guest number on a 2D1N charter?
Komodo Luxury’s policy states children aged three and above pay the full rate. In practice, count them as guests when working out whether your group falls in the 1-12 band (USD 5,300) or the 13-18 band (USD 6,000). Confirm younger children’s arrangements with the desk when you send your request.
