Some of the cases below are pulled straight from our five-star Google reviews . The rest are typical journeys we handle every week. They all describe the same kind of guest: a traveller or expat who researched before they arrived, landed in Bali, and needed a vehicle that wouldn't get in their way.

Scroll to read. Every story is a real or representative booking we have handled.
Chella booked from Singapore before her flight. She sent SMS Rent her four-day itinerary, and we recommended the right mix of car and bike for the Uluwatu, Ubud, Canggu route. What matters to us is that the vehicle matched her plan, instead of her being pushed into whatever was free.
"Top notch."
Chella L., Google Review
Enes booked two scooters on short notice late in the day for a three-day rental. We delivered to his hotel in Pecatu in under an hour. His review reads super fast and completely hassle-free, that is our default for express delivery inside the free-delivery zone (Uluwatu, Pecatu, Jimbaran, Nusa Dua).
Hannah was new to Bali and a little nervous about renting a bike abroad. We brought it to her villa, walked her through the controls, and shared a WhatsApp number for any roadside issues. Her review: Perfect bike rental. Very good price, easy collection and drop off service.
"In excellent condition."
Domi, Google Local Guide
Domi rented the Xmax 250, our favourite for long two-up rides. He called the scooter in excellent condition and mentioned the automatic delivery under 5 km. That is our free-zone benchmark and it is non-negotiable for guests inside it.
Christy rented a car and a motorbike in the same booking, the car for a family run to a beach club, the bike for solo exploring. Her review described our driver as very friendly and polite. Everything coordinated over WhatsApp.
David never set foot in our office. Every interaction, booking, delivery, pickup, payment, happened on WhatsApp. His review called us professional and great people who make things as easy as possible. That is the bar we hold for every remote-first guest.
Four backpackers from Spain and the Netherlands. They rented four standard 125cc scooters for four days, picked up at their Pecatu villa, and we confirmed their scenic route on WhatsApp. Total estimate around Rp 1,190,000 for the four-bike package over four days. They never came to the office, every handover happened at the villa.
Newlyweds from Australia wanting three full days in Ubud without dealing with the wheel themselves. They booked our Car + Driver package over three days, covering Ubud, Tegallalang, and a scenic loop around the area. The driver helped them find photo spots, local warungs, and the right time to reach Tegallalang before the crowds. After the trip, they WhatsApped their photos to SMS Rent. That is the kind of bonus we love.
Michael is a Google Local Guide, which tends to mean a sharper eye. He rented our Yamaha Nmax 155 and called it brand new, meaning he actually inspected it. Delivered to and collected from his villa, no need to come to the office.
Cihan was not sure whether to go Nmax or Xmax for his planned route. SMS Rent took the time on WhatsApp to break down the trade-offs, Xmax is steadier for long touring, Nmax is more nimble in Uluwatu's tight backstreets. Cihan picked the one that fit, and his review described SMS Rent as super friendly and always a message away.
Berlin-based expat staying three months in Berawa, Canggu. Rented a Yamaha Nmax 155 monthly with the 30 percent long-stay discount (around Rp 2,100,000 per month). Because Canggu is outside our free zone, we negotiated a lower delivery fee for the monthly. He extended twice. Bookings like this are the backbone of the business.
"He extended twice."
Repeat monthly booking
