As the sun began to dip behind the palms of Gili Air, our WhatsApp chimed with a message that would soon become a memorable journey for both us and our guests. Rowan Högman reached out from Sweden, inquiring about a private speedboat for his family—Sofia, Liv, Lucas, and Leo—seeking a seamless transfer from Turtle Beach, Gili Air, to the tranquil shores of Gili Meno. Their excitement was palpable, and from the very first “Hi Lombok Boat,” we knew this would be a special crossing. With two big bags, five carry-ons, and a spirit of adventure, the Högman family was ready to experience the best of Lombok to Gili Islands transportasi, and we were determined to make every moment smooth, simple, and unforgettable.
From First Contact: A Seamless Booking Experience
Our journey with the Högman family began with a friendly WhatsApp message:
“Hi Lombok Boat, I am interested in your private boat service from Gili Air to Gili Meno. I would like to go tomorrow morning at 11 am from Turtle Beach on Air to Mahamaya on Meno. I understood from your web that the price is 400k? Kind regards, Rowan”
We responded promptly, greeting Rowan and confirming availability for their preferred time. Our goal is always to provide clarity and flexibility, so we quickly assured him:
“Yes, we still have seat available for tomorrow from Gili Air to Gili Meno at 11.00 am, sir. The price is IDR 400.000/speedboat/way (Private speedboat).”
Rowan’s next concern was practical—could we help with their luggage? With two big bags and five carry-ons, it was important for them to feel supported. We reassured him:
“Yes, that’s possible. Our captain will help you arrange your luggage to the boat.”
It’s these small touches—anticipating needs, offering help, and responding quickly—that set our service apart for those seeking a fast boat to Gili or tiket kapal from Lombok.
Personalized Arrangements and Flexible Solutions
As the conversation continued, Rowan confirmed the names of all five family members and clarified their needs. When he asked if the departure could be shifted to 11:20 am to accommodate a last-minute laundry pickup, we were happy to adjust:
“Yes, that’s possible, sir.”
We understand that travel plans can change, and our flexibility is part of what makes booking transportasi to Gili Trawangan or Gili Meno with us so convenient. Even when there was a brief confusion about the price for five people, we handled it with care:
“Okay sir, special for you we give IDR 400.000.”
Our aim is always to honor our commitments and ensure our guests feel valued. Rowan appreciated the gesture, and we quickly sent a payment link for his convenience, offering both online and cash payment options.
Clear Communication Every Step of the Way
Throughout the booking process, we kept the Högman family updated. When there was a delay in payment confirmation, Rowan messaged:
“We paid it now to PayPal but I did not get a confirmation mail. Can you check on your end?”
We immediately checked our records and kept him informed, promising:
“If we have received double payment, we will refund the first payment, sir.”
Once the payment was confirmed, we sent a detailed summary of their booking, including pickup and drop-off locations, boat time, and a reminder that our captain would be ready to assist with their bags. This level of transparency and support is what makes us a trusted choice for Lombok to Gili Islands transfers.
Departure Day: Effortless and Enjoyable
On the morning of July 22, 2025, our team was ready at Turtle Beach, Gili Air (see location). The Högman family arrived, greeted by our friendly captain, who helped them with their luggage and ensured everyone was comfortable aboard the private speedboat. The weather was perfect, the sea calm, and the anticipation of reaching Gili Meno’s Mahamaya Resort (see location) added to the excitement.

Arrival at Gili Meno: A Warm Welcome
The crossing from Gili Air to Gili Meno is short but scenic, with turquoise waters and views of the Lombok coastline. As the speedboat approached Mahamaya Resort, our captain carefully helped the family disembark and unloaded their bags. The Högmans stepped onto the soft sands of Gili Meno, ready to enjoy their island escape.
We always check in with our guests after their journey. Later that day, we reached out:
“Hi Rowan Högman, how was your experience today? Is there anything we could improve for your next visit?”
Rowan’s reply was simple and satisfying:
“Our trip went well. I am interested in booking our return to Bangsal as well.”
There’s no greater compliment than a guest who chooses to travel with us again.
