Aliikai has plenty of lounge areas for everybody.

Bringing you to the heart of Indonesia’s spectacular wonders
Refitted in 2019 – 2020, Aliikai reflects Indonesia’s boat-building heritage with a modern barefoot luxury style. Initially built in the small village of Bulukumba, South Sulawesi, it took over 3 years of meticulous craftsmanship and over a dozen carpenters and finishers to complete the design.

An impressive 41-meter wooden yacht with two masts and three decks, it took the owners, Diane and Patrica, three years to refurbish and renovate the yacht, so that the Allikai now embodies modern comfort and classic elegance. The phinisi mixes modern interiors with a neutral aesthetic.

Centuries of rich boatbuilding tradition have transformed what was designed as cargo ships into the ultimate and authentic Indonesian experience. Aliikai was reborn with a focus on luxury expedition voyages, taking guests to the far reaches of Indonesia.

An Aliikai Voyage will uncover the explorer’s soul and feel the spirit of the legendary Bugis tribe run through your veins. Each voyage aims to bring guests to the heart of Indonesia’s spectacular wonders, a diverse country with a colorful history, exotic culture, and nature. At the same time, our passionate and dedicated team creates unique and singular experiences that make every journey come alive.

LIFE ON BOARD
The Aliikai experience centers around the main deck which acts as a meeting spot and a place to hang out. The indoor lounge and dining area is an air-conditioned multiple-purpose space where guests can enjoy a meal or relax while taking refuge from the mid-day sun. The wrap-around windows give the interior lounge an airy, expansive feel while staying connected to the rugged landscape. Folding glass doors open to the covered outdoor lounge and dining area where guests will enjoy al fresco dining under the stars and space to relax on one of the comfortable day beds and sofas.

Aliikai’s Upper Deck Lounge transforms from a mindful space for morning yoga and a relaxing lounge surrounded by the natural breeze. In the evening, the crew turns the lounge into a cinema under the stars where guests can choose from our selection of movies – popcorn included.

Aliikai has a dedicated and highly experienced Indonesian crew of 12 led by an expedition leader who will cater to all your cruise needs as well as guide you through secret spots discovered throughout extensive travels through the archipelago.
