Traveling, especially for leisure and relaxation abroad, is always something to look forward to.
But did you know what amenities Malaysians prioritize most when booking accommodations?
According to data collected by Agoda, Malaysians place significant importance on swimming pools when choosing hotels, ranking third among Asian countries and regions.
Preferences of Asian Travelers
This data, gathered from bookings made in May and June, highlights the preferences of Asian travelers.
Topping the list are Indians, who value the time spent in swimming pools with family or companions the most.
The statistics reveal that Indians frequently use the “swimming pool” filter as a crucial factor when booking hotels.
Following India, South Koreans hold the second spot, with Thailand ranking fourth, and the Philippines coming in fifth.
In contrast, Singaporeans do not prioritize swimming pool designs as much, ranking tenth in this regard.
Other important factors
Additionally, the data indicates that Asian travelers also consider whether the hotel includes breakfast, its star rating, guest reviews, and the convenience of free cancellation when making their bookings.
Here is the ranking of Asian countries based on their prioritization of swimming pools when booking hotels: India, South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Singapore.
