As the sun rose over Lombok on September 10th, 2025, we at LombokBoat.com were already buzzing with excitement. Today, we had the pleasure of welcoming Ammarah Vali and her family, a group of seven adults and two infants from the United Kingdom, for a private speedboat journey from Teluk Nare Port to the tranquil shores of Gili Meno. Their story began, as so many of our favorite journeys do, with a simple WhatsApp message—full of questions, hopes, and the anticipation of a seamless island transfer. What followed was a day filled with warm communication, flexibility, and the kind of hospitality that makes every crossing to the Gili Islands memorable.
From WhatsApp to Waves: A Seamless Booking Experience
Our journey with Ammarah started the evening before departure. She reached out via WhatsApp, curious about the details of our private speedboat from Lombok to Gili Meno. Her first question was practical: “Can we not all fit in one?” With a group of nine, including two little ones under one year old, comfort and safety were top priorities.
We quickly reassured her: “Yes, possible fit all on the boat, we can prepare the boat for 7 people.” But as we discussed further, we realized that for the utmost comfort—especially with infants and plenty of luggage—two private speedboats would be the best option. Our team explained, “We recommend to use 2 private speedboats for the comfort with the babies.”
Clear Communication, Every Step of the Way
Throughout the chat, Ammarah’s questions were thoughtful and detailed. She asked about luggage space (“All luggage will fit?”), the safety of the boats, and the best time to cross. We responded promptly, sending photos of the speedboats and assuring her, “This is the safe private speedboat, our captain and team will be together with you to Gili Meno.”
When she asked about the safest time to travel, we offered honest advice: “Morning to afternoon is safe, we do not recommend evening trips with babies.” This flexibility and transparency helped Ammarah feel confident in her choice, and together we settled on a 12:00 PM departure—perfect for a smooth crossing and happy little travelers.

Booking Made Simple: Fast Boat to Gili, No Stress
One of the highlights of our service is the simplicity of booking. Ammarah provided the names, country, and email for her group, and we sent a secure payment link directly via WhatsApp. She appreciated the clarity and speed: “Can we not pay when we get there?” she asked. We explained our process and ensured everything was confirmed well in advance, so there would be no surprises at the port.
Even when last-minute changes arose—waiting for accommodation confirmation, or deciding between a 12:00 PM or 1:30 PM departure—we remained flexible. “You can confirm tomorrow morning about the time schedule,” we assured her. Our goal is always to adapt to our guests’ needs, making tiket kapal from Lombok to the Gilis as convenient as possible.
Travel Arrangements: Comfort and Care for Every Guest
On the morning of departure, Ammarah checked in with us about the weather and the best time to travel. We monitored the conditions and confirmed, “Our captain said the departure time is good and safe, but if you can leave early, it’s better for babies.” This attention to detail is what sets our transportasi to Gili Trawangan and Gili Meno services apart.
With seven large suitcases, one medium, and several small bags and strollers, luggage was no small matter. We coordinated with our captain to ensure everything would fit comfortably, and reassured Ammarah every step of the way. “The captain will use the boat to fit you guys tomorrow, different speedboat,” we explained, always prioritizing safety and convenience.
Arrival at Teluk Nare: Warm Welcomes and Smooth Sailing
As the family made their way to Teluk Nare Port, a small delay occurred—they’d forgotten something at the hotel. Rather than stress, we simply adjusted: “Yes, it’s okay miss, we will inform the captain boat.” Our team waited patiently, keeping communication open and positive.
Upon arrival, Ammarah messaged, “We have met with the person. He said we will leave soon.” Our local team was ready and waiting, ensuring a smooth handover and a friendly face to greet them at the port. This is the heart of our service: real people, real care, and a genuine desire to make every journey special.
Crossing to Gili Meno: The Journey Itself
The crossing from Lombok to Gili Islands is always a magical experience. The turquoise waters, the gentle sea breeze, and the anticipation of arrival on Gili Meno create memories that last a lifetime. Our captain and crew accompanied the family, ensuring everyone—especially the little ones—felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey.
Within a short time, the group arrived at Gili Meno Port, ready to begin their island adventure. We checked in one last time: “Ammarah, have you arrived at Gili Meno?” Her reply was simple and joyful: “Yes.”
