Exuding exotic adventures of Indonesian sailing boats travelling the historical Spice routes, seafaring on the Silolona is a luxurious nautical experience.
Available for private charters, the majestic Silolona is a reincarnation of an ancient Indonesian legend and made with the most spirited journeys in mind. Hand-crafted from tropical hardwoods, the traditional phinisi sailing boat marries old world style and contemporary indulgences including a spacious deck, day beds and five air-conditioned suites.
The Silolona is created for romantic voyaging with highly personalised service. Depending on your preferences, we can arrange for a writer, expert naturalist or photographer to accompany you on your expedition. Roam Southeast Asia including Raja Ampat and Komodo, containing the largest biodiversity of pristine marine life on the planet, Thailand, the Andaman Islands and more. Navigate what feels like unchartered territory and on the spur-of-the-moment, anchor off a secluded beach for a party under the stars, tuck into a deluxe picnic atop hidden ruins or embark on snorkelling adventures in shallow lagoons.
Culinary creations are a speciality on Silolona with personalised menus to satisfy even the most discerning foodies. Delight in Asian fusion cuisine alfresco on the boat's dining deck and enjoy sophisticated set-ups on remote beaches and in wild locations.
Head out to sea on tenders for aquatic excursions guided by the expert PADI dive instructor who knows the best secret dive spots on barely explored reefs thriving with wildlife. From water-skiing and wakeboarding to kayaking and sport fishing, navigate the sea at high speed or enjoy contemplative scenic exploration.
Why We Love It
During downtime, Silolona offers a spa program tailor-made to suit your preferences where we can bring aboard specialists such as massage therapists and yoga instructors.
