ASTON BALI BEACH RESORT & SPA WINS TWO WOTIF AWARDS

Aston Bali Beach Resort & Spa proved their popularity again by getting not only one, but two Wotif Awards under the category of ‘Top Producer’ and ‘Top Achiever’.

Wotif.com is based in Brisbane, Australia and is Australia’s leading online marketplace for hotel bookings.

The awards were awarded to the Aston Bali Beach Resort & Spa based on the merit that the resort has developed a core competency in internet distribution and an unsurpassed popularity in Australia making it Wotif’s most sought after hotel in Bali.

Hervier Hugues, GM at Aston Bali Beach Resort & Spa commented, “We won a Wotif award last year and to be honest we really did not expect to win again and get actually two awards this time. I am very happy with this achievement and would like to thank our Sales & Marketing team for their effort in making this happen.”

Aston Bali Beach Resort & Spa is one of the first hotels managed by Aston International when the hotel operator entered Indonesia in the late nineties. Located on the Tanjung Benoa Peninsula in Nusa Dua, the 5 star beach front Aston Bali Beach Resort & Spa has become a favorite vacation spot for a mostly Australian and European clientele.

Aston’s expertise in internet distribution and marketing has been credited to have contributed to the return of Australian mass tourism to Bali. Since its arrival in Bali 10 years ago the Aston group has increased its portfolio of Bali hotels to 13 hotels of which 9 are operational and a further 4 due to open by early 2010.
