Amandira
Moyo Island
Explore two of the Indonesian archipelago’s most stunning areas aboard Amandira; the second addition to Aman’s exclusive fleet off Moyo Island. Amandira offers 7-day expeditions to UNESCO protected Komodo National Park and to Raja Amput - one of the most spectacular marine habitats on earth with 40,000 square kilometres of protected sea and rich marine life.
The 52-metre, two-mast Phinisi sailing vessel is custom built in the inimitable Aman style and boasts 600 square metres of sail. Amandira can travel under sail as well as motor; under full sail, she cruises at an expeditious but leisurely 9 knots. The spacious deck of elegantly-dark, varnished wood is fitted with loungers and is the perfect place to enjoy a sundowner drink from the bar or to appreciate the haute cuisine provided by the staff who are as accomplished in international cuisines as they are in Indonesian.
There are five spacious cabins with a crew of 14 and the top deck master cabin provides stunning open sea views from wall to wall windows on either side of the king-size bed. The other four are simple but stylishly fitted cabins consisting of one cabin fitted with a king-size bed, one fitted with a queen-sized bed or twin beds, and two further cabins with double bunk beds. All the cabins feature graceful marble and wood fitted bathrooms.
The dive facilities include Nitrox enabling more experienced divers to submerge for longer. One of the 14 crew is a dive master and will help you explore the pristine underwater world that divers across the globe dream of. Amandira can also be chartered alongside Amanikan for the ultimate Indonesian odyssey.
My favourite thing is to go where I've never been.
