The short answer, before anything else: a cabin on Lady Grace’s Komodo open trip costs between IDR 5,250,000 and IDR 8,500,000 per person for the 3D2N (three-day, two-night) route in 2027, depending on which of our five cabin grades you choose. Ten cabins, five grades, one 34-metre hull — and every grade sails the same itinerary and eats from the same galley. If you would rather not share the vessel at all, a full private charter is published at IDR 123,000,000 to IDR 129,000,000 for up to 22–24 guests. The rest of this page explains what the gap between the bottom rung of that ladder and the top one actually buys, because it is not a better sunset.

Why We Sell Komodo by the Cabin, Not by the Seat

An open trip is a shared departure: you join other travellers on a fixed date instead of chartering the whole vessel. Most operators price that per seat, as though a boat were a bus. We price it per cabin, because on a phinisi — a wooden ship built in the Bulukumba shipwright tradition of South Sulawesi, not a fibreglass day boat — the rooms are genuinely different rooms, in different places, with different amounts of sea outside the glass. A liveaboard trip means you sleep aboard for the whole route, so the room is most of what your fare buys. The dragons cost the same whichever bed you wake up in.

Every one of the ten cabins has its own page on this site, with photographs and a note on whether it can be taken privately or shared. The grades below are the map; the cabin pages are the territory.

The Five Cabin Grades, Compared

As you climb from IDR 5,250,000 to IDR 8,500,000 per person, three things change: where the cabin sits on the ship, how much daylight and sea view it gets, and how much floor you have to yourself. Three things never change: the route, the cooking, and your place at the bow rail — or in the jacuzzi on deck — when Padar appears at first light.

Grade one — the entry cabins

The lowest fare on the ladder, at IDR 5,250,000 per person for 3D2N. These are the compact cabins, set lower in the hull where the boat is quietest under way. If you treat a cabin as a bed between islands — and on a Komodo route, most waking hours happen on deck or in the water — this is the rational choice, not the consolation prize.

Grade two — the first step up

The first step above entry buys breathing room: a more generous berth and more of the hull’s daylight. It suits travellers who want a real gain in comfort without paying for position higher in the vessel.

Grade three — the middle of the ship

The middle grade is where couples who want a proper room rather than a bunk usually land: better placement, more glass between you and the water, and layouts that vary enough from cabin to cabin that the ten individual cabin pages earn their keep here. Two cabins in the same grade can feel like two different rooms.

Grade four — almost the best room aboard

The second-highest grade collects the remaining advantages of position: upper placement, a sea view from the bed rather than through a porthole, and enough floor that two people can unpack without negotiating. It exists for guests who want nearly everything the top grade offers while leaving the final step of the ladder to someone else.

Grade five — the top of the ladder

At IDR 8,500,000 per person, the top grade is the largest, most private accommodation on board, with the best outlook Lady Grace can give a sleeping guest. People choose it for anniversaries, and for the honest reason that they intend to spend time in the room rather than merely sleep in it.

A rule of thumb from our crew: pick your grade by how much time you truly spend in a cabin, not by the photographs. Deck-dwellers should keep their money for the trip itself; room-dwellers should climb the ladder.

The Published Price List, Grade by Grade

These are the operator-published open trip rates for the 3D2N Komodo route — per person, two-guest minimum, exactly as listed on the Lady Grace price list. Komodo National Park entrance fees are charged separately. Each grade name links to its cabin page.

Cabin gradePosition & viewOpen trip rate (per person, 3D2N)
Suite Ocean ViewUpper deck, private balcony with private jacuzziIDR 8,500,000
Junior SuiteMain deck, private balconyIDR 8,000,000
Grand DeluxeSea-view cabinIDR 7,750,000
DeluxePorthole-view cabinIDR 5,750,000
SuperiorSea-view cabin, twin bunksIDR 5,250,000

The Open Trip with a Private Jacuzzi

One line of that table deserves its own paragraph. Every guest aboard shares the jacuzzi on Lady Grace’s sun deck — that is part of what any grade buys. The Suite Ocean View goes a step further: a private balcony with its own jacuzzi, attached to your cabin. That makes it a rare thing in Komodo — an open trip with a private jacuzzi, at the published IDR 8,500,000 per person, instead of the whole-boat charter bill such privacy usually demands. Couples weighing this grade tend to start with the honeymoon suite guide and the first-hand notes on what the jacuzzi is really like at sea.

What the 3D2N Fare Actually Buys

Lady Grace publishes hour-by-hour itineraries for the 2D1N, 3D2N and 4D3N routes, so you can see exactly where the boat is at 5:30 a.m. on day two — usually below Padar, with coffee going around before the ridge walk. A typical 3D2N takes in the Padar viewpoint at first light, Pink Beach, a ranger-led walk among the Komodo dragons, snorkelling at Manta Point, and the evening exodus of flying foxes from Kalong. What is and is not included in the fare is itemised on each itinerary page rather than summarised here, because the three routes pace the national park differently.

Per Cabin or the Whole Boat: When a Charter Wins

The full-vessel charter is published at IDR 123,000,000 to IDR 129,000,000, with Lady Grace carrying 22 to 24 guests. If you are travelling as a large family or a full group of friends, do the arithmetic: divide the charter figure across your actual headcount and set it beside the cost of buying cabins one by one. Beyond the arithmetic there is a change of character. With only your own people aboard and the itinerary bent to your preferences, she stops being a shared cruise and starts behaving like a private yacht — one of the few occasions where that word is used precisely.

Two Facts Worth Knowing Before You Plan 2027

The 1,000-visitor daily cap

Since April 1, 2026, Komodo National Park has limited entry to 1,000 visitors per day. This is good for the park and mildly demanding of your calendar: departures now sit inside a daily quota, so peak-month dates reward earlier planning than the old walk-up era did. It also strengthens the case for the per-cabin model — a confirmed cabin on a scheduled departure is a cleaner position than an unticketed intention.

The August 2026 earthquake, plainly

On August 15, 2026, a magnitude 7.7 earthquake struck the region. There was no destructive tsunami — the recorded wave was 0.36 metres — and the national park reopened the same day. We put this on the record because guests planning 2027 deserve facts rather than headlines: the park is open and the fleet is sailing.

If Our Dates Don’t Fit Yours

Lady Grace sails within the fleet of Komodo Luxury — a registered Indonesian PT under Juara Holding Group Limited with 1,500+ verified guest reviews (4.9/5) — and that has one practical consequence for you: alternatives held to the same standard. Catnazse, a sister vessel in the same fleet, runs her own Komodo departures, as does Yumana; the full line-up is on Komodo Luxury. To weigh shared departures across many boats before deciding, the Labuan Bajo liveaboard listings lay the field side by side. And if Komodo is one chapter of a longer Indonesian journey, the trip planners at IndonesiaJuara cover the rest of the archipelago.

2026 Departure Calendar, Month by Month

The published 2026 open trip pattern is a weekend 3D2N departure, roughly every Friday to Sunday, all twelve months. The dates below are from the operator’s published 2026 sailing schedule; since April 2026 every departure also sits inside the park’s 1,000-visitor daily quota, so the month you pick matters less than how early you confirm the cabin.
