Why Sanur is better than Nusa Lembongan?

Sanur and Nusa Lembongan offer different experiences that may appeal based on personal preferences.

Was fine. Bit messy to sort boarding as its just two people shouting stuff and everyone leaves at the same time but got there in the end. Left in time. Wasn't crowded. Easy to find the booking office.

The boat was 30 or 45 minutes late. In and of itself that is not a major issue, but there was no communication regarding this or when the boat would arrive. It would have been better to set up a Whatsapp or email communication channel explaining what is happening and when the boat will be expected to arrive etc. Not knowing causes unnecessary anxiety and it has a knock on effect on one's other plans (like scooter rental or shuttle pickup times, check in arrangements etc). A simple communications channel will help streamline this eventually.
