由于巴厘島目前的客房數已經足夠滿足到2015年的需求，印尼文化旅游部官員強烈要求巴厘島管理局停止在島上新建酒店開發項目。若再新建客房，將產生惡性的商業競爭。
       人力資源開發局主任Pitana Brahmanda說：“近期的一項研究表明巴厘島的酒店客房數量供過于求。” Pitana所提到的研究是由陀衍那大學研究部提出的。這項研究主要集中在旅游觀光最發達的區域——巴東、登巴薩和吉安雅。這項研究堅信環境學家幾十年前的擔憂問題也是現在旅游觀光業所擔憂的問題，那就是巴厘島上的酒店開發的強勁速度將同時危害到環境和旅游業。印尼飯店酒店協會（PHRI）巴厘島分會主席的Tjokorda Oka Artha Ardhana Sukawati說，為平衡巴厘島的旅游業發展，叫停新開發酒店勢在必行。
 

      Indonesia’s Culture and Tourism Ministry officials have urged the Bali administration to temporarily halt new hotel developments on the island, saying Bali had sufficient hotel rooms for up to 2015 and building more rooms would create unhealthy business competition.
       "A recent study showed that the island is already suffering from an oversupply of hotel rooms.” the ministry’s human resources development head, Pitana Brahmanda, said. The recent study he referred to was conducted by the ministry and Udayana University researchers and focused on Badung, Denpasar and Gianyar, the regions with the most developed tourist industries. The study confirmed the concerns initially voiced decades ago by environmentalists and later by the tourism industry that the island’s hotel development was proceeding at a pace that would hurt both the environment and the tourist industry as well. Calls for a moratorium on new hotel development have been issued by several stakeholders. The head of the Bali branch of the Indonesia Hotels and Restaurants Association (PHRI), Tjokorda Oka Artha Ardhana Sukawati said that a moratorium was needed to balance tourism development across Bali.
