As the sun rose over the turquoise waters of Gili Trawangan, we received a friendly WhatsApp message from Mark Hoekx and Sara Dijkink, a couple from the Netherlands eager to experience the seamless journey from the Gili Islands to Lombok. Their request was clear: a private speedboat transfer, tailored for comfort and efficiency, with a smooth connection to their next destination in Kuta Lombok. From the very first “Hi” in our chat, we knew this would be another memorable journey—one where our dedication to hospitality and clarity would shine through every step.
From WhatsApp to Waves: The Start of a Seamless Journey
Our story with Mark and Sara began with a simple inquiry: “What’s the price for a transfer from Gili T to Lombok?” We responded promptly, asking for the number of passengers and confirming their preference for a private speedboat. Their reply was quick and decisive—“2. Private speed boat transfer right?”—and our answer was just as swift, confirming the details and providing all the necessary information.
Throughout our WhatsApp conversation, we made sure every detail was crystal clear. Mark and Sara appreciated our transparency and flexibility, especially when it came to timing and logistics. Here’s a snippet from our chat that captures the spirit of our communication:
Mark: 11:00 am departure from Gili T. Where is the pick-up and what is the dropoff?
Us: Boat depature from Gili Trawangan to Teluk Nare Port. Do you need hotel transfer in Lombok also?
Mark: We need to go to Kuta Lombok. What’s the transfer price?
We guided them through every option, ensuring they understood the route, the timing, and the convenience of combining their fast boat to Gili transfer with a private car to their hotel in Kuta Lombok. Our goal was to make their journey as effortless as possible, so they could focus on enjoying the beauty of the islands.
Easy Booking, Clear Information, and Flexible Arrangements
One of the highlights of our service is the simplicity of the booking process. After confirming the details—names, country of origin, and hotel address—we sent Mark and Sara a secure payment link. They appreciated the straightforward approach and the speed with which we handled their request:
Mark: Payment is done. Can you confirm?
Us: Thank you for your payment. Your private speedboat from Gili Trawangan to Teluk Nare is confirmed for 11:00 AM tomorrow.
We also provided a detailed itinerary, including:
- Departure: Gili Trawangan Port, 11:00 AM
- Arrival: Teluk Nare Port (Jun Speedboat)
- Private Car: Transfer from Teluk Nare to Lina Boutique Villas & Spa, Kuta Lombok
To ensure a stress-free experience, we shared Google Maps links for both the harbor and their hotel, and offered direct contact with the boat captain should they need assistance. Our proactive communication meant Mark and Sara always felt supported, even before they set foot on the boat.
Travel Day: Smooth Sailing and Warm Welcomes
On the morning of March 2nd, we checked in with Mark and Sara to make sure everything was on track. Their reply was music to our ears: “Already on the boat.” Just minutes later, they messaged again, “We are in the car now. Everything is very well organized thank you 🙏.”
For us, these words are the ultimate reward. Our team coordinated closely with the boat crew and the private car driver, ensuring a seamless transition from sea to land. The speedboat glided across the Lombok Strait in just under ten minutes, and our driver was ready and waiting at Teluk Nare Port to whisk them away to Kuta Lombok.

Our instructions were simple: “Tomorrow, boat departure 11.00 AM, please check in 10.55 AM at Gili Trawangan Harbor. If you have trouble finding the boat captain, please contact us and we will be happy to assist you.”
After their arrival in Kuta Lombok, Mark and Sara’s gratitude was evident. They even asked for a link to leave us a review, which they promptly did. Their feedback—“Everything is very well organized thank you”—is a testament to our commitment to making every transfer smooth, safe, and enjoyable.
