Onboard Experience
Senja accommodates two to four guests across a master suite and a flexible additional cabin. The master cabin sits on the main deck with air-conditioning, an ensuite bathroom and wraparound windows that fill the space with natural light. Neutral textiles, warm wood and soft tones create an airy, elegant retreat.
French doors open directly onto a private aft terrace furnished with daybeds – a secluded space for reading, resting or watching the horizon drift by. The atmosphere is quiet and intimate, ideal for couples seeking privacy and stillness at sea.
A second cabin on the lower deck offers a twin configuration that can convert to a king bed, making Senja well-suited to couples travelling with a child or families seeking a compact, beautifully designed charter option.
Cabin Overview
Onboard Experience
Senja’s main deck flows naturally between indoor and outdoor living. The foredeck features cushioned seating for breezy afternoons under sail, while the shaded alfresco dining area and comfortable sofas create relaxed spaces for long meals or slow mornings with coffee.
The upper deck is fitted with sun loungers offering 360-degree views of the islands — an ideal setting for sunrise, sunset or quiet hours spent between destinations. The atmosphere is soft and understated, shaped by wood, light and easy movement across the decks.
For exploration, Senja carries full diving and snorkelling gear, nitrox, kayaks, a paddleboard and yoga mats. Days unfold gently — diving among coral gardens, paddling through quiet bays, or enjoying restorative onboard massages as the sea settles into dusk, true to the yacht’s name.

Explore Indonesia
Situated off the coast of West Papua, Raja Ampat is a chain of 1,500 jungle-clad islands with limestone cliffs, white sand beaches and luminous turquoise seas. Known as one of the most biodiverse marine regions on earth, its reefs host an extraordinary variety of coral and fish.
Days unfold between quiet bays, sweeping coral gardens and karst peaks that offer panoramic views across the archipelago. Even above the waterline, the landscapes feel wild, sculptural and untouched, with hidden coves and lagoons only accessible by tender.
Private yacht routes here often extend into neighbouring regions such as Maluku, Triton Bay and Cenderawasih, revealing remote anchorages, serene beaches and moments of deep stillness in one of Indonesia’s most remarkable frontiers.
Situated east of Bali and Sumbawa, Komodo National Park is a rugged chain of islands shaped by volcanic ridges, pink-sand beaches and clear, dramatic seas. Home to the famed Komodo dragon, this UNESCO-listed region offers landscapes that feel raw, ancient and untamed.
Above water, rolling hills, savannah grasslands and quiet inlets create a shifting palette of ochres and greens. Beneath the surface, nutrient-rich currents support manta rays, coral gardens and thriving marine life, making Komodo one of Indonesia’s most varied cruising grounds.
Private yacht journeys here unfold between secluded bays, sunset ridges and remote dive sites, often combining nearby regions such as Sumbawa or Flores. Anchorages are peaceful, the scenery cinematic, and the sense of remoteness unmistakable.
The Spice Islands, known historically as the Moluccas, sit at the crossroads of ancient trade routes and early maritime exploration. Once the world’s only source of nutmeg and cloves, these islands retain a rich cultural legacy shaped by sultans, traders and centuries of seafaring.
The landscapes are gentle and green, with quiet villages, preserved forts and volcanic silhouettes rising over sheltered bays. Coral reefs ring many of the smaller isles, offering warm, clear waters that feel far from the bustle of modern Indonesia.
Yacht itineraries through Maluku often include Banda, Kei or Seram, unfolding between cinnamon-coloured coastlines, historic anchorages and reefs alive with colour. It is a region where history, and natural beauty meet in a way that feels timeless.
West Papua stretches along the far eastern edge of Indonesia, a land of immense cultural and ecological diversity. Its coastline weaves through jungle-clad peninsulas, river deltas and remote island chains, offering a sense of scale and wildness found in few other places.
Inland, dense forests shelter ancient traditions, distinctive art forms and communities whose lives remain closely tied to their environment. Along the coast, limestone cliffs, mangroves and hidden bays create a dramatic setting for exploration by sea.
Private yacht journeys often extend through Cenderawasih Bay, Triton Bay or the remote Bird’s Head Peninsula, revealing whale sharks, karst islands and quiet waters ideal for long, unbroken days on the ocean. West Papua remains one of Indonesia’s most stirring and untouched frontiers.
