When tourism flourished in Bali around 1970, the one and only destination spot in the Northern
Coast of Bali was Lovina. The little Lovina  and the home stays were filled with visitors. The
result was obvious. Many tourist facilities like hotels, restaurants and others were set up
spontaneously around the villages of Kaliasem and Kalibukbuk, to accommodate the tourists.  
Followed by Pandji Tisna's youngsters another lodging or the so called "home stays" were
built close by, Hotel Tasik Madu, Manggala Homestay and Ayodia Accommodation. In turn,
Lovina Beach Hotel was extensively renovated.
At that time, tourist business was new to the local people, they just copied "Lovina". They
simply think to be successful in the tourist business they must use the name "Lovina"
otherwise their business would be out. Lovina was so overwhelming and combined a number
of six or more "native villages", i.e. Kalibukbuk, Anturan, Tukadmungga, Pemaron, and
Temukus and of course, its birthplace Tukadcebol (Kaliasem)  under the name "Lovina Beach
Resort". Until now, Lovina is still copied freely and used by the people without knowing its
origin. Lovina is still copied freely and used by the people without knowing its origin.
