In the heart of Nusa Lembongan, where turquoise waters meet the warmth of island life, stands one of the community’s most respected figures. Gede Metrayasa, founder of MP Mushroom Rental and a familiar face to anyone who has explored the island’s hidden beaches or winding coastal roads.
With over three decades of experience in hospitality, Gede has become a pillar of reliability and local expertise. His journey began in the early years of Lembongan’s tourism growth, when the island was still a quiet fishing village. Through commitment, adaptability, and a genuine love for service, he rose to become Manager of Club Le Nusa, one of the island’s most prominent hospitality venues, where he spent four years refining operations and guest relations.
Following this, Gede managed The Shambala Villa, a private luxury property in Lembongan, where he oversaw guest management, property maintenance, and personalized service, lots of experiences that would later shape the foundation of his own business.
Today, through MP Mushroom Rental, Gede provides more than just scooter rentals. His company offers transportation services, guided tours, and travel support helping guests experience the islands safely and authentically. Many visitors rely on his insight to explore beyond the typical tourist routes, gaining access to local traditions, scenic spots, and the warm hospitality that defines the Nusa experience.
What sets Gede apart is his deep understanding of both the island’s culture and modern guest expectations. He bridges the gap between local authenticity and professional standards, a quality that has made him a trusted partner to villas, resorts, and tour operators across Lembongan and Ceningan.
“In tourism, trust is everything,” Gede often says. “Guests come back not just because of the place, but because they feel cared for.”
His story reflects the spirit of sustainable and people-driven growth that Bruinsma Cooporation Platform aims to cultivate through the Nusa Islands Growth Platform. By spotlighting business owners like Gede, professionals who have built long-standing reputations through honesty, reliability, and service, the platform showcases the depth of local potential available on the islands.
As Nusa Lembongan continues to evolve, entrepreneurs like Gede Metrayasa remain the foundation of its growth, proving that genuine hospitality and local leadership are key ingredients for a sustainable island economy.
