Luxury cruising on a phinisi in Indonesia

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Indonesia‘s premier private-charter phinisi line, Rascal Voyages, has teamed up with luxury all-inclusive resort Nihi Sumba to offer travellers a unique seafaring expedition to remember. Forget about routine domestic flights: with the new partnership, a private cruiser from Rascal will take you straight to Nihi Sumba’s posh shores in unparalleled comfort.

Situated on the shores of the grand Indian Ocean, Nihi Sumba offers upscale villas styled after rustic Indonesian huts, all without skimping on the luxury quotient.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

It makes it the perfect way to traverse Indonesia’s bounty of unexplored archipelagos, offering intrepid travellers the chance to go on their own off-the-grid adventure.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Onboard chefs serve up a bevy of delicious, fusion cuisine on the ship’s al-fresco dining areas, which transform into mesmerising chill-out spots during the night. Its the perfect place to stretch out with a cocktail from the Rascal’s bar, and to take in the expansive views of the quiet ocean.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
