Luxury Meets Legend: Why Lamain 1 Stands Out
From the moment Raffi Ahmad and his entourage stepped on board Lamain 1, it was clear that this was no ordinary boat. Dubbed one of the finest luxury boats in Labuan Bajo, Lamain 1 offered the celebrity crew a blend of lavish comfort and authentic seafaring charm. Here’s what made their experience exceptional:
- Stunning Traditional Design – Lamain 1 is a modern phinisi yacht, a traditional Indonesian two-masted ship, crafted with teak and ironwood. Raffi and friends were immediately charmed by the vessel’s classic beauty. It felt like stepping into a rich heritage, yet every inch of the boat was updated with contemporary luxury.
- 5-Star Amenities – The yacht is equipped with six spacious cabins, and Raffi reportedly stayed in the master suite featuring its very own jacuzzi on a private balcony! Waking up in a plush bed with panoramic windows facing the turquoise sea gave the stars a hotel-like comfort even in the middle of the ocean. Each cabin had an ensuite bathroom and air conditioning, ensuring the group remained comfortable throughout the trip.
- Social Spaces & Scenic Views – Much of the celebrity vacation was spent bonding on Lamain 1’s gorgeous decks. From the indoor lounge and dining area to the breezy sun deck, there was no shortage of spots to relax and soak up the view. Ariel, known for his love of music, even strummed a guitar on the top deck as the sun set – a spontaneous concert with nature’s best backdrop. The group could dine under the stars with a gourmet chef preparing fresh seafood, or chill out in the shaded lounge sipping on tropical mocktails.
- Smooth Sailing & Top-notch Crew – For a group used to VIP treatment, the service on Lamain 1 did not disappoint. A professional crew handled everything from navigating the clear waters to guiding the celebs on island excursions. Desta, who loves a good joke, even chattered with the friendly crew members and joked that he got a 5-star hotel service plus ever-changing ocean scenery. Safety was paramount as well – life vests, snorkel gear, and a tender boat were always on hand. The smooth coordination by the captain and crew meant the stars felt secure enough to truly unwind and live in the moment.
This combination of traditional elegance and modern luxury made Lamain 1 the perfect stage for a celebrity getaway. It’s no wonder that their yacht experience in Labuan Bajo is inspiring many others to consider a similar journey.
Island-Hopping Like Celebrities – The Itinerary

Beach Hopping and Snorkeling
Cruise to pristine beaches (like the famous Pink Beach) for swimming and snorkeling in crystal-clear waters. Enjoy a beach barbecue and VIP treatment ashore, all arranged by the crew. -
Komodo Encounter
No Labuan Bajo trip is complete without visiting Komodo Island. Follow a park ranger’s lead to see the legendary Komodo dragons—an unforgettable wildlife experience. -
Hidden Lagoons & Manta Rays
The beauty of a private charter is flexibility. If you hear about manta rays near Taka Makassar, you can adjust course and snorkel alongside these gentle giants. Then unwind on a tiny sand island that emerges during low tide. -
Sunset & Stargazing
Evenings offer pure magic. Anchor near an uninhabited island and watch the sunset paint the sky in brilliant colors. After dinner on the deck, lie back for stargazing—you might even spot the Milky Way away from city lights.
