Bali will be exploring more opportunities that will open up their expansion in the Meeting Incentive Conference and Exhibition (MICE) market. This is according to Firmansyah Rahim, Tourism and Creative Economy Ministry, Tourism Development Director General. He also further said that Bali will improve its wellness spas, develop cruise, water sports, as well as culinary attractions to add to its already very popular villas for rent in Bali.
“Bali has almost everything to offer to holidaymakers, as well as business people. Beautiful nature, culture, historical heritage and the most contemporary MICE facilities already exist here on the island. Effective promotion is really crucial,” added Rahim.
Furthermore, he said that there are 6 categories being mapped by the ministry and these include culture and history, art, sports and recreation, cuisine, spa and wellness, and MICE. Currently, the country is also making developments and investing on other destinations namely: Lake Toba in North Sumatra, Toraja in South Sulawesi, Batam and Bintan Islands in Sumatra, Bunaken in North Sulawesi, Lombok in West Nusa Tenggara, Komodo Island in East Nusa Tenggara, Yogyakarta, the Mentawai Islands in West Sumatra, Raja Ampat in West Papua, and Wakatobi in South Sulawesi.
Tourists from neighboring ASEAN countries like Thailand, Darussalam, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei are also flocking the island. Moreover, additional direct flights to Denpasar are being instilled like the Singapore Airlines, Malaysian Airlines, Air Asia, and Thai Airways. Countries like China, India, Taiwan, Middle East, Australia, Japan, and South Korea are also making Bali as their destination of choice.
Aside from visiting and staying in the private villas in Bali and the different villas to rent in Bali, tourists also want to experience the real Bali life by wanting to stay in the villages like Seranga, Batur in Bangli, and Sibetan.
