As the sun began to rise over the tranquil waters of Gili Air, our WhatsApp chimed with a friendly message from across the globe. “Hello, how are you? I need a couple of info about transfer from Gili Air to Lombok…” It was Alessandro Adamo, traveling with Giulia Fontana from Italy, seeking a seamless journey from their island paradise to the mainland. Their request was clear: a private speedboat, a morning departure, and a smooth, worry-free experience. From that very first message, we knew this would be a journey to remember—not just for our guests, but for us as well.
From WhatsApp to Waves: The Start of a Seamless Journey
Our story with Alessandro and Giulia began with a simple, heartfelt exchange. Their message was warm and polite, and we responded in kind: “Hello Good morning. Thank you for contacting us. Yes, we still have seat available private speedboat from Gili Air to Lombok (Teluk Nare port) on 14 August at 09.00 am.” We made sure to provide all the details they needed—departure time, pick-up location, and the short, scenic 8-10 minute crossing that awaited them.
What made this booking special was the genuine connection we built through our chat. Alessandro’s quick confirmation—“Hello, that’s perfect…confirmed”—set the tone for a smooth process. We asked for their names, country, and luggage details, ensuring everything would be ready for their comfort. “Of course: Alesssandro Adamo and Giulia Fontana from Italy. We have 2 small suitcases and one bigger, plus one very small bag.” Their attention to detail matched our own, and we knew we were in sync.
Effortless Booking: Clarity and Convenience at Every Step
At LombokBoat.com, we believe that booking your fast boat to Gili or arranging transportasi to Gili Trawangan should be as relaxing as the journey itself. For Alessandro and Giulia, the process was designed to be clear and convenient:
- Quick Confirmation: Immediate response to their inquiry, with all options and times clearly outlined.
- Personalized Details: We collected their travel information and luggage needs to ensure a tailored experience.
- Easy Payment: A secure payment link was provided, and we kept communication open until payment was received and confirmed.
- Booking Recap: We sent a detailed summary of their booking, including pick-up and drop-off points, and a reminder to check in at 8:55am for their 9:00am departure.
Throughout, our WhatsApp chat was filled with friendly exchanges and reassurances. When Alessandro wrote, “Thank you! I will pay in the few hours,” we replied, “That’s okay, no problem. We’re waiting for your payment.” Every message was met with patience and positivity, reflecting our commitment to hospitality.
Flexibility and Hospitality: Adapting to Our Guests’ Needs
Just two days before departure, Alessandro reached out again: “For the 14th morning do you think is possible pickup us in a drop point close to Bel Air Hotel? We saw many boats going through those lines.” We immediately checked with our speedboat provider and confirmed, “Possible pickup in front of Bel Air Resort, sir. Do you want we change the pick up location?”
His response was enthusiastic: “It is great my friend.” We updated the booking and sent a new confirmation, ensuring their morning would start right at the doorstep of Bel Air Resort and Spa, Dusun Gili Air, Desa Gili Indah. This flexibility is at the heart of what we do—adapting to our guests’ preferences and making every journey uniquely theirs.
Departure Day: Smooth Sailing from Gili Air to Lombok
On the morning of August 14th, we sent a gentle reminder: “Good Morning Alesssandro Adamo. We would like to reconfirm for tomorrow. Boat departure 9:00AM, please check in at least 8:55AM in front of Bel Air Resort and Spa.” We double-checked their luggage count and provided a direct contact for the boat captain, just in case. Our goal was to ensure that every detail was covered, so Alessandro and Giulia could simply enjoy the ride.
As they arrived at the pick-up point, we greeted them with a smile and a wave. The private speedboat was ready, the crew prepared, and the sea calm. In just under ten minutes, they glided across the sparkling waters, leaving Gili Air behind and arriving at Teluk Nare Port, Lombok—refreshed and ready for their next adventure.
After the Journey: Lasting Impressions and Warm Memories
We always follow up with our guests, and Alessandro’s feedback warmed our hearts: “Hello! Everything was perfect! Thank you.” Even a playful exchange about TripAdvisor reviews brought laughter and camaraderie—“3 stars review for you.” “I’m joking! Have a great evening😊 5 stars for you.” These moments remind us that travel is about more than just logistics; it’s about connection, trust, and shared joy.
