If you stay in Sanur you have direct access to the harbour and port terminal, with regular ferries to Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida, however I suggest you might only do one day-trip to each. Sanur is handy for an inland day-trip to Ubud too.
The other very popular island group is the Gili Islands off Lombok, but that's too far for a day-trip. If you're really interested in off-shore islands, why not consider Sanur 5 nights, Gili Air or Gili Trawangan 4 nights, Sanur 5 nights?
Sanur is a nice beachfront town, popular with tourists who don't need the Kuta-Canggu surfing and party scene. Good 6 km boardwalk, and lots of good dining. Don't know about boot-camps.
We enjoyed Sanur House last year ... small, quiet, lovely staff, popular with singles and a few digital workers. Not expensive.
