Indonesia Ecotourism Market Trends:

Expansion of Sustainable Tourism Infrastructure

Indonesia is experiencing a marked increase in the development of sustainable tourism infrastructure, especially in environmentally sensitive regions such as Bali, Lombok, and Labuan Bajo. In response to growing demand for ecologically responsible travel, both the government and private sector are investing in eco-lodges, off-grid accommodations, and renewable energy integration within tourist facilities. Notably, on 11 March 2025, Cross Hotels & Resorts announced a strategic expansion of its Indonesian portfolio through a Hotel Management Agreement with PT Bali Penida Jaya to launch CROSS CELESTA NUSA PENIDA, a luxury eco-resort overlooking Kelingking Beach. Scheduled to open in 2027, the resort will comprise 61 tented villas and offer high-end amenities such as infinity pools, wellness facilities, fine dining, and event spaces. Designed with a strong emphasis on sustainability and low environmental impact, the project underscores the brand’s commitment to eco-conscious luxury and responsible tourism development in the region. Apart from this, efforts are also underway to upgrade transport systems using low-emission vehicles and to implement waste management protocols that align with global sustainability standards. This infrastructure push is not limited to high-profile destinations but extends to secondary and rural areas, reflecting a broader national commitment to decarbonize tourism. As a result, destinations once threatened by over-tourism are now transitioning to regulated, eco-sensitive models that balance visitor inflow with conservation.

Rising Environmental Awareness Among Younger Domestic Travelers

The heightened environmental consciousness among younger domestic travelers is a significant factor contributing to the Indonesia ecotourism market growth. Millennials and Gen Z, in particular, are showing a strong preference for experiences that align with sustainability values, such as wildlife preservation, waste-free travel, and engagement in conservation volunteering. Their travel choices are increasingly guided by ethical considerations, including support for local economies and low-carbon transport options. This demographic shift is encouraging tourism operators to redesign packages that are more immersive, educational, and environmentally sound. Moreover, according to industry reports, social media posts from influencers play a significant role in destination choices for 49% of Indonesian travelers, with around 92% of them following influencers on Instagram. In addition to this, younger tourists are more receptive to digital innovations that support eco-friendly travel, such as mobile apps for tracking carbon footprints or finding certified green accommodations. As this segment gains economic strength and social influence, its preferences are shaping broader industry practices, compelling both public and private stakeholders to adapt their offerings to meet evolving expectations around ecological responsibility.
