Silolona
The Komodo Islands

Top 10s logo 

Silolona is one of Ampersand's Top 10 Luxury Sailboats.

Silolona is a 49-metre wooden sailboat hand-carved in the traditional "Phinsi" style following the ancestral traditions of Konjo boat builders and luxuriously fitted out with crisp white cushions, one-off Asian artefacts and a stunning sundeck. The beauty of the islands she explores is legendary, the underwater landscape is the most bio-diverse in the world and the rich tapestry of cultures and the warmth of the people all makes for a holiday of a lifetime. The five luxurious  en-suite bedrooms are styled on Indonesian islands and cultures. All journeys, be they private charters or highly specific "private journey expeditions", are tailored to the greatest level of detail according to your specific interests by Silolona's destination specialist, who has over 20 years of experience throughout South-East Asia.

You can explore mythical Komodo Island, meet indigenous Papuan tribes, zig zag through the paradise islands of the Banda Sea, scuba dive in Raja Ampat or relax on your own hidden, pristine beach in the Mergui Archipelago. The dedicated crew of 16 on board Silolona (including a 5 star chef and a dive master) offer some of the best hospitality in the world: discreet and warm and with an intimate knowledge of the areas they cruise. As they work the sails and whip up gourmet meals from fresh local sources, you can while away your time in pristine blue waters, scuba diving, sea-kayaking, waterskiing and fishing. Each day ends watching the sunset turning from orange to pink to purple as it dips over remote, exotic islands. Silolona sails in Indonesia from April to November every year, before going up to the West Coast of Malaysia, Thailand and up to Myanmar from December to March.

Culture, luxury, soul-stirring natural beauty and adventure... this journey is simply out of this world and this is reflected in the price. It is expensive, but if you are looking to really treat yourselves, this exclusive sailing adventure will provide memories to last a lifetime - the perfect multi-generational experience for the whole family. Here is a BBC Knowledge short film featuring Silolona :

Client Testimonials

We really enjoyed the trip and were happy that we squeezed so much into a few short days. The Burmese people were lovely and the sites were fantastic. We really enjoyed the balloon ride and would highly suggest it to others in the future. The trip went super smoothly and a good time plus learning happened for all. Yangon was nice as the Strand was quite amazing and we of course loved the giant gold temple. Many thanks for all of your help and look forward to future travel with you.

Difficult to articulate just how good the service from you and your team really was. We know you will continue to do well and hope we have the chance to seek your assistance again before long.
- Mr & Mrs Manson, North India
We have just returned back from a wonderful trip. Thank you very much for organising everything. The transfer was excellent – for once they had perfect car seats. The villa was lovely, just what we needed and the hotel had helpfully put us as far away as possible from everyone else. The breakfast buffet was the best I have ever seen – and I am slightly obsessive over breakfast!! There was an incredible choice, something for everyone and so beautifully presented. A real highlight of the trip. Thank you again for sorting everything - and at such short notice!
