On a bright March afternoon, our team at LombokBoat.com had the pleasure of welcoming a truly international group: Maria Emanuella SR from Indonesia, along with her Swiss companions Jean Francois Bessire, Beat Eggimann, and Britta Schmid. Their journey was set to begin at Teluk Nare Port, where a private speedboat awaited to whisk them across the turquoise waters to the tranquil shores of Gili Air. From the very first WhatsApp message, it was clear that this would be a memorable transfer—one marked by warm conversations, seamless arrangements, and the kind of hospitality that makes every trip to the Gili Islands special.
From WhatsApp to Waves: A Journey Begins
Our story started with a simple question on WhatsApp: “Perusahaan kakak baligilifastboat bukan?” We replied with a smile, “iya benar kak,” and instantly, a connection was made. Maria was quick to share her trust, referencing friends in Bali and her familiarity with our services. We responded by sending her our TripAdvisor link and a few glowing reviews from previous guests, ensuring she felt confident in her choice.
Throughout our chat, Maria’s warmth shone through. She appreciated our flexibility, especially when we offered the option to pay a deposit first: “Kalau mau DP 50% dulu boleh kak.” She replied, “Saya transfer yg 400k boat dulu ya. H-1 saya transfer 450k utk mobil.” We assured her, “Boleh DP 400.000 saja,” and soon after, she confirmed, “Done ya 🙏🏻.” Our team quickly acknowledged receipt, and the booking was officially underway.
Seamless Booking: Clarity and Convenience
We pride ourselves on making the booking process for a fast boat to Gili as smooth as possible. For Maria and her group, this meant:
- Clear communication about pick-up times and locations
- Flexible payment options
- Personalized arrangements for luggage (three large suitcases and one cabin bag)
- Real-time updates and confirmations
Maria’s itinerary was carefully crafted to fit her group’s needs. The private speedboat from Teluk Nare to Gili Air was scheduled for 1:00 PM, with our team ready at the Kasmir Speedboat dock (see map). We ensured that all details were confirmed, from the number of passengers to the luggage count, so that nothing was left to chance.
Personal Touches: Hospitality in Every Message
Our WhatsApp conversations were more than just logistics—they were filled with friendly exchanges and genuine care. When Maria mentioned her travel companions’ limited holiday time, we empathized and offered to assist with their return journey as well. She appreciated our proactive approach: “Untuk trip baliknya bisa kami bantu bookingkan kak??” and responded, “Boleh juga.”
We discussed flight schedules, pick-up times, and even lunch plans on Gili Air. When Maria’s flight schedule changed unexpectedly, she messaged us right away. We reassured her, “iya gapapa nanti driver nungguin kak,” and coordinated with our driver and boat captain to accommodate the new arrival time. Our goal was always to provide peace of mind, no matter what changes arose.

Travel Day: Effortless Transfers and Smiling Faces
On March 7th, our team was ready at Teluk Nare Port, ensuring the Kasmir Speedboat was prepared for Maria and her friends. The group arrived with their luggage, greeted by our friendly staff who helped load their bags onto the boat. The sun sparkled on the water as the speedboat set off, offering breathtaking views of Lombok’s coastline and the promise of adventure on Gili Air.
Our captain navigated the route with ease, making the short journey both comfortable and scenic. The group relaxed, snapped photos, and enjoyed the refreshing sea breeze. Upon arrival at Gili Air Port, our team assisted with unloading luggage and offered tips for making the most of their stay on the island.
