Indonesia’s Bali has been voted the “world’s most romantic destination” at this year’s World Travel Awards, surpassing eight other rivals.

This is the second consecutive year the island has won the honor.

Bali is known for its natural landscapes, picturesque beaches, traditional culture, rich history, and ancient temples, making it a favorite among travelers worldwide.

The island has witnessed a strong rebound in tourism following the Covid pandemic.

So far this year, Bali welcomed 6.9 million international visitors, with total arrivals expected to reach 7.05 million by year end, surpassing last year’s figure.

The island received 6.3 million foreign arrivals in 2024.

The World Travel Awards, established in 1993, recognize excellence in the travel and tourism industry and are often referred to as the “Oscars of the travel industry.” These annual awards are determined by votes from both travel industry professionals and the public.
