Paradise Found by Boat from Bali: Gili Trawangan

🚤 First Impression: 'This feels different.'
Just a short boat ride from Bali, you'll find the island of Gili Trawangan. From the moment we arrived, we could feel it—this place has a unique vibe! No cars, no motorbikes, just the gentle clatter of horse carts and the quiet hum of electric bikes. The scenery was so romantic 🐎🌿, it felt like stepping into a movie scene.

🏡 Arriving at Ponte Villas by Horse Cart
We took a horse cart to our accommodation, Ponte Villas, and it was such a unique experience! The villa was cozy and clean, with a studio-style layout. The best part? Open the door, and you're greeted by a long, stunning pool. Just slip into your swimsuit, throw on some flip-flops, and dive right in 🏊♂️🌴. It was absolutely perfect.

🚲 Exploring the Island by Bike
Getting around the island means either calling for a horse cart or renting a bike. We opted for bikes and leisurely cycled around the island. Riding along the seaside paths, the views were indescribable. We kept stopping to admire the breathtaking ocean scenery 🚲🌊.

🐢 Turtles, Sunsets, and Bintang
The waters around the island are famous for sea turtles, and while snorkeling, we had the incredible experience of locking eyes with one 🐢💕. There's even an event where baby turtles are released into the wild, giving you a real sense of nature thriving here. In the evening, we enjoyed a chilled bottle of Bintang Radler Lemon 🍋 while watching the fiery sunset. It felt like paradise—no words needed, just soaking it all in 🌅🍻.

✨ One-Line Summary: An island without cars, where you ride horse carts, cycle, meet sea turtles, and sip Bintang—it's the perfect blend of romance and relaxation.
