As the morning sun painted Lombok’s coastline in golden hues, we received a thoughtful WhatsApp message from Joel Jackle, a traveler from Canada, eager to arrange a seamless journey for himself and his companions, Sofia Iatrou and Jon Jackle. Their adventure was set to begin at the Lombok Coconut Hotel, with a private speedboat transfer to the iconic Gili Trawangan. From the very first message, it was clear that Joel valued clarity, efficiency, and a touch of local hospitality—values we hold dear at LombokBoat.com. This is the story of how we helped three Canadian explorers experience the magic of the Gili Islands, ensuring every detail was handled with care, from their initial inquiry to their arrival at the turquoise shores of Gili Trawangan.
From WhatsApp to Waves: A Seamless Booking Experience
Our journey with Joel, Sofia, and Jon began with a simple, friendly WhatsApp message:
“Hi Lombok Boat, I hope this message finds you well. I would like to place an order with the following details…”
We always appreciate when travelers reach out with clear intentions, and Joel’s message was no exception. He provided all the essential details—names, nationality, number of passengers, and their preferred departure time. This allowed us to respond quickly and offer tailored options for their fast boat to Gili adventure.
Personalized Options for Every Traveler
Understanding that every journey is unique, we presented Joel with two convenient options for his transportasi to Gili Trawangan:
- Option 1: Private car transfer from Senggigi to Teluk Nare, followed by a private speedboat to Gili Trawangan.
- Option 2: Direct speedboat transfer from Senggigi to Gili Trawangan.
Joel quickly chose the first option, appreciating the comfort and flexibility it offered. Our team confirmed the pickup location and time, ensuring everything was tailored to their schedule. We even double-checked the hotel address and clarified luggage details, demonstrating our commitment to a smooth and stress-free experience.
Attention to Detail: Communication That Cares
Throughout the booking process, our WhatsApp chat was filled with friendly exchanges and helpful clarifications. When Joel mentioned their hiking plans on Mount Rinjani, we reassured him:
“Don’t worry, we’ll save your booking and wait for your payment once you’re ready. Have a safe and enjoyable hiking!”
We understand that travel plans can change, so when Joel requested a pickup change from Jazz Senggigi Hotel to Lombok Coconut Hotel, we updated the booking immediately—no hassle, no extra steps. Our flexibility is one of the reasons travelers trust us for their Lombok to Gili Islands transfers.
Clear Steps for a Hassle-Free Journey
To make the process even easier, we provided Joel with a simple checklist:
- Confirm pickup location and time via WhatsApp.
- Share luggage details for smooth transport.
- Receive booking confirmation and payment link.
- Make payment securely online.
- Receive final confirmation and travel instructions.
Every step was communicated clearly, ensuring Joel and his friends felt confident and cared for throughout the process.
The Day of Departure: Hospitality in Action
On July 31, 2025, our team was ready and waiting at Lombok Coconut Hotel. We sent a friendly morning reminder to Joel, confirming the pickup time and ensuring everyone was prepared. The driver arrived promptly between 11:10 and 11:20 AM, helping with their hiking backpacks and making sure everyone was comfortable for the short drive to Teluk Nare.
Upon arrival at the port, our staff greeted the group with warm smiles and guided them to their private speedboat. The check-in process was quick and easy—just as promised. At 12:00 PM sharp, the boat departed, gliding across the sparkling waters toward Gili Trawangan. The journey was smooth, private, and filled with anticipation for the adventures ahead.
