BADUNG - A member of the BUMNinJourney holding company, PT Pembangunan Wisata Indonesia (ITDC) noted that the hotel room occupancy rate in the Nusa Dua area, Badung Regency, Bali, reached 80 percent during the Lebaran 2024 holiday.

"This figure has jumped from the realization in 2022 to 69 percent and 2023 to 78 percent," said General Manager of the Nusa Dua ITDC I Made Agus Dwiatmika as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, April 12.

He revealed that when compared to the occupancy rate on weekdays, there was an increase of 10-15 percent, which was dominated by domestic tourists from several cities in the country, including Jakarta and Surabaya.

Then, this positive trend continued during the Easter holiday until the momentum of Eid al-Fitr 1445 Hijriah.

The Nusa Dua area has a total of about 5,485 rooms spread across 22 five-star hotels and luxury villas and has meeting room facilities that can accommodate around 21,000 delegates.
