I'm planning to stop by Bali early next month and stay for 2 nights on Gili island. I heard I can take a fast boat from Padang Bai port, but I get really bad seasickness so I'm worried. Would it be better to buy a ticket that includes pickup from my Seminyak accommodation to the port?

The best way to get to Gili Trawangan is to take a fast boat from Padangbai Port. It usually takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour, so I understand you're worried about seasickness. To prepare for seasickness, you can take motion sickness medication beforehand, or sitting in the middle of the boat tends to have less swaying. Also, eating lightly before departure and looking at the horizon can help. If you consider a ticket package that includes port pickup, given the distance from your Seminyak accommodation to Padangbai (about 1 hour) and the amount of luggage, a pickup service would be convenient. Especially since you need to arrive on time for the fast boat's departure. If you look for packages with accommodation pickup on platforms like Klook or Bali TokTok, you can save yourself the hassle of transportation. Alternatively, you could take a Grab to the port beforehand, take motion sickness medication, and then board, so just choose whichever method feels more comfortable for you.
