London-based Luxury Travel magazine named Bali as the 2008 best exotic destination.

This is the first award Bali has received in 2008. In previous years the island has received various commendations from different tourism-related publications.

In 2007, Bali was nominated the world's best tourist destination by two Asian and one U.S. magazines.

In 2006, the influential TIME magazine awarded Bali as the world's best tourist destination. The selection was based on a poll involving the magazine's 4.7 million readers.
