    Location

    Guests joining Malaillo will embark in either Maumere or Ambon, depending on the itinerary. Both towns serve as key gateways to some of Indonesia’s most remote and spectacular dive regions. Transfer to the boat can be arranged upon request.

    Dive Overview

    Diving from Maumere or Ambon opens the door to some of Indonesia’s most diverse and remote underwater environments. From the critter-rich muck sites of Ambon to the clear, current-swept reefs of Alor, the region offers exceptional variety. The Banda Sea adds dramatic walls, schooling fish, and seasonal encounters with hammerheads, while Raja Ampat delivers unmatched biodiversity with vibrant coral reefs and a mix of macro and pelagic life.

    [See: Alor Dive Travel Guide, Banda Sea Dive Travel Guide & Komodo Dive Travel Guide]

    Accommodation Overview

    Malaillo Liveaboard accommodates up to 14 guests in seven comfortable cabins spread across three decks. Each cabin is air-conditioned and features a private en-suite bathroom. The lower deck hosts four cabins—two twins and two doubles—each 14 m² with porthole windows. On the main deck, a 13 m² twin cabin offers easy access to the restaurant and outdoor dining area. The upper deck features a spacious 18 m² master suite and a 13 m² twin cabin, both with large windows and an interconnecting door.

    Food & Drinks

    Aboard Malaillo, guests can expect a refined dining experience with a focus on fresh, flavorful cuisine. Meals are thoughtfully prepared by an experienced onboard chef and typically include a mix of Indonesian specialties and international favorites. Daily menus feature locally sourced seafood, fresh produce, and homemade desserts, with vegetarian and special dietary options available upon request. Complimentary water, tea, and coffee are also always available, while soft drinks, beer, and a curated selection of wines and spirits are for sale.
