If you had visited Bali 20 years ago, you would not have even heard of Canggu. Once a small, coastal farming and fishing community, Canggu has expanded into a full-fledged tourism resort in seemingly the blink of an eye. Here at The Bali Sun, we have watched the evolution of Canggu with our own eyes. From rural community to surfer and backpacker hangout, to digital nomad hub, through to full-scale tourism resort, from a tourism perspective, the area has gone from strength to strength.
Now home to some of the best hotels in all of Bali, it’s fair to say that demand for travel in Canggu is not going to be slowing down. But with so many incredible hotels to choose from, it’s hard to know where to start. We at The Bali Sun track all kinds of travel metrics and one thing we look for in both attractions, accommodation and destinations is what we call the returnability index. Canggu’s top hotels have a high rate of return and it’s not hard to see why.
