BADUNG, DEWATA.NEWS – InJourney Tourism Development Corporation (ITDC) recorded positive performance throughout 2025, particularly in the second half of the year, despite ongoing shifts in both national and global tourism dynamics.
The state-owned tourism developer reported stable occupancy rates and significant growth in visitor numbers across all destinations under its management, including The Nusa Dua in Bali, The Mandalika in West Nusa Tenggara, and The Golo Mori in East Nusa Tenggara.
Performance stability in the second half of 2025 was driven by increased tourism activity and the hosting of national and international events across these areas. ITDC said this contributed to stronger destination positioning, sustained visitor movement, and continued confidence from tourism industry stakeholders.
Acting President Director Ahmad Fajar expressed appreciation for collaboration among stakeholders in maintaining positive destination performance throughout the year.
“Throughout 2025, we were able to maintain stable occupancy levels while also encouraging significant growth in visitor numbers. This shows that tourism activity in our managed destinations continues to move in a positive direction, supported by event strengthening, MICE activities, and destination experience development,” Ahmad Fajar said in a statement on Friday, January 16, 2026.
The Nusa Dua
At The Nusa Dua, average hotel occupancy throughout 2025 reached 76.93 percent, achieved despite early-year challenges linked to reduced government travel and MICE activities following central government budget efficiency measures.
Visitor numbers, however, continued to rise. Total visits increased from approximately 3.2 million in 2024 to nearly 3.8 million in 2025, representing growth of around 18.5 percent. ITDC noted that most visits were still dominated by day visitors, which have not yet fully translated into overnight stays.
The Mandalika
The Mandalika recorded an average hotel occupancy rate of around 55 percent in 2025, supported by strong destination activity and more than 1.4 million visitors throughout the year.
Peak occupancy occurred between July and August, coinciding with national and international events and the school holiday period. Occupancy growth was seen across various hotel categories, reflecting the broader economic impact of events on tourism movement and local businesses.
The Golo Mori
The Golo Mori also posted positive results, with 28,406 visitors recorded in 2025. Visitor realization exceeded targets in both halves of the year, reaching 139 percent in the first semester and 140 percent in the second.
This growth was attributed to more focused destination activation strategies, including curated medium- to large-scale events that attracted higher visitor numbers while maintaining selective event programming. ITDC said the results reinforced The Golo Mori’s position as a growing and increasingly competitive MICE destination.
“Overall, the performance of the three destinations confirms the effectiveness of ITDC’s destination management strategy as a master developer and asset manager for Indonesia’s tourism destinations,” Ahmad Fajar added.
Looking ahead, ITDC stated it remains committed to improving service quality, increasing length of stay and visitor spending, and strengthening the development of international-standard events and amenities to support sustainable tourism growth.
