There’s a special kind of anticipation that fills the air when we receive a WhatsApp message from travelers planning their escape to the Gili Islands. On a bright morning in early June, our team at LombokBoat.com was delighted to hear from Ms Rachael Millar and Mr Wynand Strydom, a couple from Singapore, seeking a seamless, private speedboat journey from Teluk Nare to Gili Meno. Their attention to detail and thoughtful questions set the tone for a journey that would be as smooth as the turquoise waters between Lombok and the Gilis. This is the story of how we helped make their island dreams come true, from the very first “Hi!” to the final wave goodbye.
From WhatsApp to Waves: A Journey Begins
Our story with Ms Rachael and Mr Wynand began with a simple WhatsApp message:
“Hi! I am looking to book private speedboat to & from Gili Meno. Arrive: Wednesday May 27th, flight lands 12:10, we will have private car transfer to Teluk Nare to meet boat at 2pm. Leave: Monday Jun 1st. Need 6am pickup, to meet 6:30 car at Teluk Nare, to get to airport by 8am for 9:30am flight. 2 adults, small luggage. Is above all ok to book please?”
We always appreciate clear communication, and Ms Rachael’s message made it easy for us to tailor the perfect transfer. Our reply was swift and reassuring:
“Hello Good afternoon. Thank you for contacting us. Yes, that’s possible. Do you already have transport from airport to Teluk Nare and from Teluk Nare to airport, right? Private speedboat around 8-10 minutes only on the sea.”
We could sense their excitement, and we were determined to make every step effortless. Our team provided all the details, from the fast boat to Gili arrangements to the convenience of a private car transfer. We even offered recommendations for airport transfers, ensuring every leg of their journey was covered.
Personalized Planning: Every Detail Matters
One of the highlights of our service is flexibility. When Ms Rachael asked:
“And on Meno we will stay at Bask. Can the speedboat drop there, or at main public jetty only?”
We immediately checked with our captain and confirmed that, depending on the tide, a direct drop-off in front of BASK Gili Meno was possible. This attention to detail is what sets our private speedboat from Teluk Nare to Gili Meno apart from standard transfers.
We also made sure to clarify all travel arrangements, confirming flight numbers, luggage details, and even the best time for their return transfer to ensure a stress-free journey back to the airport. Our transparent communication and willingness to adapt to their needs made the booking process not just simple, but enjoyable.

Arrival Day: Seamless Transfers and Warm Welcomes
On May 27th, everything was set. Our driver waited at the agreed meeting point—right in front of KFC at Lombok International Airport—holding a sign and ready to greet Ms Rachael and Mr Wynand. We had already exchanged photos and confirmed luggage details, so the pickup was smooth and stress-free.
The private car whisked them away through the scenic landscapes of Lombok, heading north to Teluk Nare Port. There, our team was ready with tiket kapal from Lombok and the private speedboat, “The Princess Boat,” gleaming in the afternoon sun. The couple’s excitement was palpable as they boarded, knowing that in just 8-10 minutes, they would be stepping onto the sands of Gili Meno—right in front of their resort.

Island Time: Enjoying Gili Meno
We love hearing from our guests after their arrival. Our follow-up message was simple:
“Hi Ms Rachael, how was your experience today? Is there anything we could improve for your next visit?”
Feedback like this helps us continually refine our transportasi to Gili Trawangan and Gili Meno services, ensuring every journey is memorable.
During their stay, we also shared recommendations for activities—horseback riding along the beach, snorkeling tours, and guided kayaking trips—so they could make the most of their time on the Gili Islands. Our guests always have the option to reach out for last-minute bookings or special requests, and we’re happy to help with a smile.
Return Journey: Early Morning Efficiency
As their holiday drew to a close, we reconfirmed all details for their early morning departure. The captain was ready at 5:55 AM in front of BASK Gili Meno, ensuring a punctual start. Our driver awaited them at Teluk Nare Port, ready to transfer them back to Lombok Airport with plenty of time for their flight.
Ms Rachael’s final message warmed our hearts:
“Thanks very much, great service, everything on time! Much appreciated 👍”
