BALI, Indonesia -- Developers in Bali are building apartments in anticipation of a post-COVID tourism boom projected to send demand for self-contained and long-term accommodations skyrocketing.
Despite the tropical getaway having been officially closed to international tourists during an 18-month stretch of the coronavirus pandemic, Bali has consistently ranked high as a desired destination among travel surveys and topped Tripadvisor's 2021 list of the world's most popular. Construction of villas has already seen a surge, with interest now also turning to apartments.
