CIANJUR - The occupancy rate of villas in the Puncak-Cipanas area, Cianjur, West Java, has increased since the last two weeks after the PPKM (Community Activity Restrictions) was relaxed. The occupancy rate reached 10 times compared to the previous week or about 50 villas of various types.

The manager of dozens of villas in Cipendawa Village, Pacet District, Abdilah Nurul Hilal, said that at the beginning of the PPKM, the occupancy rate of the villas he managed was only filled with three to five villas at the highest per day.

However, since the last two weeks, the demand for villas has increased again, so Abdillah was forced to offer villas owned by other managers.

"The system that we apply to guests who come, is the same as hotels, strict procedures and rules that must be met according to government recommendations. We even prepare services for guests who need health checks at the nearest health center", he said, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, August 24.

Abdilah ensures that most of the guests come from Jabodetabek, Bandung, and customers from Cianjur. To increase guest interest, he continued, his party offered low prices during PPKM.

Not only directly, to facilitate booking villas, added Abdilah, but his party also implemented an online system for guests from within and outside the city.

The same thing was done by Ujang Dedi, a villa manager in Sukatani Village, Pacet District, which has many villas and is currently being sought by out-of-town guests who are a family.

"Most of the families from various areas in Jabodetabek rent villas. They choose villas because they are bored at home while PPKM is implemented. They mostly hold activities inside and in the villa yard, because tourist attractions are still closed," said Dedi.

Meanwhile, Secretary of the Cianjur Youth and Sports Tourism Office, Pratama Nugraha, said that he would involve various service business actors including managers of villas and new tourist attractions at the village level to receive training and other assistance, as an effort to recover the economy.

"We will provide training on various ways so that the managers of tourist attractions, tourist villages, and villa managers get guests who feel at home in Cianjur. Including residents who are friendly to guests who will spend money in Cianjur, including arrangement and uniformity", he said.
