    efficient and professional
    From the easy online booking procedure to the final drop off at our accommodation all went smoothly, apart from the slightly bumpy crossing which was only to be expected travelling at high speed. The check in procedure was smooth, all our bags were taken care of, the staff were all friendly and our transfers were all quick and efficient. A good team of staff thanks for all your attention.

    Professional, well organised and safe.
    Very well organised and professional. We had excellent communication with the company throughout. We booked boat only but they dropped us at our hotel in Lembongan free of charge. When we booked the return journey online, they contacted us to see if we wanted a pickup from the same hotel. All was on time and felt safe. More expensive than some of the others but worth it for us as we’re not keen sailors. Would definitely choose again.

    Great Service
    I booked my ticket in advance through the internet. I also booked transfer from hotel vv. From Kuta to Lembongan and back. The sea was peacefull so it was a smooth ride. The contact via WhatsApp was perfect. I even changed the time of my return ticket without a problem. Would recommend Arthamas!

    Nice ride, slow office.
    Nice boat. Comfortable ride with no technical issues. The only negative is that it took way too long to collect our tickets at the office. There were 6 people in front of us and took about 20 minutes to get our tickets. They need to improve their process.

    Great ferry company!
    Arthamas Express is a reliable ferry company to use for traveling from Sanur to Lembongan. They took care of our luggage and were always on time. We also used them for transportation to and from our hotels. Highly recommend!

    Arthamas Express is the best.
    Everything went very smoothly, from pick up in the morning to drop off in the afternoon. The Arthamas staff will help you get on and off the boat on the island. My daughter and I were very pleasantly surprised to find the Arthamas Office on Lembongan has a pool, sunbeds, palm trees and a cafe and bar. Nice way to wait for your boat home. Everything ran like clockwork, would definitely go with Arthamas again and would recommend.

    It is a good boat to get to nusa lembongan
    No air conditioning, small fans not working. Staff were good, helped us with suitcases, and helpful and quick on WhatsApp. They work hard. There is a free shuttle to our hotel in nusa lembongan it is a flatbed trailer without a roof, no seatbelts, it was fine for a short trip. The trip was quick and in sanur it has a platform so you don’t have to get in the water, very nice. Arrive early as can be confusing to find the harbour after check in. In nusa lembongan you have to enter the water up to your knees to get to the beach the staff help and assist you.

    Smooth sailing!
    Excellent service. Very well organised transfers to and from Sanur. You do need to step into the water embarking/disembarking at Sanur. I made the mistake of wearing a long dress. However, the brief dip was very refreshing!

    All smooth
    All was smooth. Booked via their page directly. They confirmed and reminded via Wspp day before. The checkin point in Sanur was easy to find. Since the checkin the staff take care of us. Boat was nice left and arived on time. Suitcase survived without being soaked -you step out of the boat to the small water so be prepared for that(some ppl were wearing sneakers).

My wife and I paid around $112 for the boat and hotel pick up and drop off. The island itself is nice, but there isn’t much to do there.

We got picked up at 0730 and arrived for 0815. The boat doesn’t leave until 9ish so we sat around for an hour waiting. The boat was then delayed by 30 mins for an unknown reason.

The seating arrangements are cramped. There is pretty much no room for your legs (I am 5ft 10”) and it is very uncomfortable.

The last boat left at 4.15 and you need to be back at the waiting point at 1530 - this is pointless. The boat did not leave until 1645 so again, another hour of pointless waiting.

The drop off back to the hotel was a nightmare. There was not enough transport for the people who had booked, so drivers were doing shuttle runs then coming back to get people. 45 minute wait for transport after we were dropped off. Traffic was so bad we ended up walking the last 3km to the hotel. We didn’t get home until 1930 due to the chaotic transport

All in all, not worth going to the island let alone paying the price for an overcrowded boat.

Our hotel in Lembongan called the pick up service. We were informed that Arthamas car will pick up us up at 10:30 latest, the boat was scheduled to leave 11.
We were early and waited 45minutes. Hotel whatsapped Arthmas driver several times and driver anserwered that he is coming. At 11:00 the hotel driver drove us to the harbour. We noticed that Arthamas driver was already there (so they forgot to pick us up) and the boat was about to leave. Luckily we handled the transportation by ourselves, otherwise would have missed the boat.
the boat trip itself was tolerable, boat smaller than in the pictures, hard to fit three adults to next to each other. Luckily weather was ok, not too windy, but it was really really hot inside the boat.

Professional, caring and safe.

We had a relatively smooth trip over, boat slowed down for debris in the water. Staff were professional, caring and it was not overbooked.

Trip on the way back was a little bumpy in spots. The wind and sea had picked up and I was quite nervous. Staff checked on me several times during the trip.
There were only 29 of us on the return trip and they used their bigger boat, despite the smaller one sitting at the Lembongan port and the small number of passengers.

We’ve used scoot, D’Camel, Marlin and Rocky previously.
Had some hairy experiences with other operators with engine trouble (and stuck out at sea) on what should be a 30 minute give or take journey.
I’d always thought they were all pretty similar in their offerings.

However I was super impressed on boat/service and safety and would highly recommend these guys as your first choice.

overall the service is good, but I feel annoyed because ticket prices change, I feel fooled. Prices are inconsistent, once I was charged 85,000 then 75,000 and most recently I was charged 100,000 in a period of no more than 3 months. Maybe the department handles it payments must be fixed. For the good of us all.

Excellent customer service, ferry left on time, arrived at Sanur on time and we were taken to airport in a private taxi arranged by Arthamas. Fabulous experience dealing with Arthamas. Thank you.

Offer good service, handle baggage carefully and boats were as well-equipped as one could expect - I’d recommend their services. Staff were polite and efficient too. My wife and I travelled with them to and from Nusa Lembongan on 9 and 10 July 2024.

Great service and felt safe on board with my family. Plenty of life jackets. Boat departed on time. Easy pick up service and on time, excellent driver. One thing I did get caught out with was an extra charge for surfboards that is not apart of the booking process, only told about it when I asked about the size of vehicle picking us up. 30k per board/return.
