As the sun began to dip behind the hills of Lombok, painting the sky in hues of gold and lavender, we received a WhatsApp message that would soon become a memorable journey for both us and our guests. Stijn Ver Eecke from Belgium reached out with a simple yet exciting request: a private speedboat transfer from Teluk Nare Harbor to Gili Trawangan for four people, with four sturdy backpacks in tow. The evening timing, the anticipation of island adventure, and the warmth of our digital conversation set the stage for a seamless and personalized travel experience—one that truly reflects the spirit of LombokBoat.com.
From First Hello to Smooth Booking: Our WhatsApp Journey
Our story with Stijn and his group began in the early hours, with a friendly message:
“Hello, I would like to know if it would be possible to travel from Teluk Nare to Gili Trawangan on September 11 around 19u30-20u in the evening. It would be for 4 personnes.”
We replied promptly, eager to help:
“Hello good morning, yes possible take private speedboat around 7.30-8.00pm.”
Our goal is always to make the booking process as easy and transparent as possible. We provided all the details—departure time, check-in instructions, and a clear summary of the trip. Stijn appreciated the clarity, confirming, “That would be okay for us.”
Personalized Service and Flexibility
We know that every traveler is unique, and so are their needs. When we asked about luggage, Stijn replied, “We would bring 4 backpacks of 15 kilo as luggage.” No problem at all! We assured him that our private speedboat could comfortably accommodate both guests and their belongings.
Simple, Secure Payment—With a Human Touch
Sometimes, international payments can be tricky. Stijn encountered a few hurdles with online transfers, but our team was there every step of the way. We offered multiple payment options—PayPal, bank transfer, and even considered cash or credit card on arrival. Our WhatsApp chat was filled with understanding and patience:
“Sorry for late response, so if I pay now everything will be booked.”
“Yes sir, and a day before departure we will reconfirm again to you and send link address for check in.”
Even when PayPal was uncooperative, we quickly generated a new payment link and sent it directly to Stijn’s email. His gratitude was clear: “Thank you for your patience.” For us, it’s all part of the service—ensuring every guest feels supported and valued.
Preparing for Departure: Clear Communication and Guidance
As the departure date approached, we sent a friendly reminder with all the essential details:
- Departure: 11 September 2025, 20:00 PM
- Check-in: Before 19:50 PM at Teluk Nare Harbor (Google Maps link)
- Drop-off: Gili Trawangan Port
- Luggage: 4 backpacks (15 kg each)
We also provided a direct contact for the boat captain, ensuring that if there were any last-minute questions or if Stijn’s group needed assistance at the harbor, help was just a message away. Our commitment to hospitality means we’re always available, from the first inquiry to the final wave goodbye.
The Evening Voyage: Private Speedboat from Teluk Nare to Gili Trawangan
On the evening of September 11th, the harbor at Teluk Nare was alive with anticipation. Our team was ready, the speedboat gleaming under the soft lights, and the captain prepared for a smooth crossing. We checked in with Stijn’s group via WhatsApp, confirming their arrival and ensuring everything was set:
“Good Evening Stijn Ver Eecke. Is it your group right?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you.”
With a gentle breeze and the promise of adventure ahead, Stijn and his friends boarded the private speedboat. The crossing from Lombok to Gili Trawangan is always magical at night—the sea calm, the stars bright, and the silhouette of the Gili Islands growing closer with every wave. Our captain navigated expertly, making sure the journey was not only fast but also comfortable and safe.
