Destination: Sumbawa
This is not a place of polished paths or crowded coves. Here the volcanoes rise from quiet shores, and traditions endure without performance.
At 31 metres, ALEXA is a handcrafted Phinisi designed exclusively for two. Be ready to be awed by open decks, a single main suite, and interiors filled with soft light, aged wood, and curated details. Spend your days onboard barefoot and unhurried, where the horizon feels like yours.
Aboard your private Phinisi yacht, you can trek volcanic hills, dive into vibrant reefs, or simply drift between uninhabited islands. This is a voyage without crowds, clocks, or compromise. Just extraordinary landscapes, quiet luxury, and the freedom to explore your way to the Whale Sharks.
We extend you a rare invitation to explore one of Indonesia’s wildest islands — in comfort, solitude, and effortless style.
When you’re ready to escape the ordinary, Sumbawa is waiting.
Your Journey. Seamlessly Planned.
Life aboard ALEXA doesn’t follow a fixed plan. You lead with your mood. Your crew quietly shapes the rest.
Your private chef crafts every meal to your preferences — from fresh, wholesome dishes to indulgent seafood feasts, paired with fine wines. Dine barefoot on deck as the sun sets, or enjoy a candlelit dinner beneath an open sky. As night falls, stretch out and stargaze in perfect stillness.
Every indulgence is second nature.
Ease into the day with yoga on deck as the ocean stirs to life around you. Later, explore vibrant underwater worlds with your personal dive instructor, or simply surrender to bespoke spa treatments from your private wellness therapist.
Here nothing is timed. Yet everything arrives when you need it. The sea becomes your sanctuary. And ALEXA, your quiet companion.
With ALEXA, you cruise a journey that moves in harmony with you.
Sumbawa by Land and Sea
ALEXA Private Cruises offers a unique chance to swim with whale sharks in Sumbawa — one of the few places in Indonesia or the world where you meet them on their terms, in open water.
Unlike more tourist-heavy islands, Sumbawa remains quiet and untouched with the opportunity for year-round whale shark sightings. And that’s what makes this experience exceptional.
A dedicated dive instructor is with you from the start. You can dive, snorkel, or simply watch from the deck.
Beyond the encounter, you can slow down and reconnect with yourself. Your certified spa therapist is on board, offering personalised treatments and sea-view rituals that help you unwind between swims. Every choice is supported with the moment being entirely yours, and in complete comfort.
The stillness, setting and privacy is as rare as the encounter itself. Some are lucky to witness it. Most never come this close.
Traditions Off the Map
In remote inland villages of Sumbawa, rituals still honour the earth, the ancestors, and the passing of time. There are no ticketed ceremonies or crowds with cameras.
With ALEXA, you are respectfully invited. A village elder might welcome you. They might quietly show you how master weavers create intricate ikat patterns, dyed by hand with natural pigments. This visit isn’t pre-planned or promised. It happens because of the trust and connection your crew shares with the community.
These moments aren’t curated. They’re real and rare. Through your crew’s care, discretion, and deep local ties, you witness a side of Sumbawa that remains hidden to most — and unforgettable to those who do.
