Brief from client
Logo for a tourism company.
Hello! I'm not a logo designer, but I have read some logo design articles and looked at some other tourism logos.
The logo is supposed to be fun and not boring looking.
I need your professional help to make this better.
Thank you! :)

Oh I almost forgot. The words, "CAHAYA MATAHARI" means "Sunshine" in English. And "BALI" is a tropical island with thousands of temples.
Any opinion, both good and bad is welcome! Thank you!
Like the shapes, like the colors, like the font. Looks pretty good to me.
I must say, for a someone who's not a designer, this is pretty good! You definitely have an eye for good design. Everything seems to fall into place quite nicely.
The only think I'm not a fan of is the colors combination. While that bright blue, green and orange works well together, the dark blue and red are a bit off, at least for my taste.
I would also reduce the size of "Bali", as it's not part of the name of the hotel. It should be a subtext, just to indicate the place.
But overall, this is a mighty fine job for someone who just starts to dabble into logo design. I've seen people doing it for years and unable to come up with something good. Keep it up!
I used dark blue and red so they will stand out, because they represent a temple gate. But I will try different colours.
And thanks for noticing the "BALI" text, it's bigger. I will reduce it.
Thank you!
Agreed, this is quite good for a beginner.
Don't be afraid to extend the palm leaves slightly further than the border of that sun. I feel it looks a bit too perfectly aligned.
May I ask what building/landmark you're trying to resemble here? Just curious.
It's a temple gate. There are literally thousands of temples across Bali.
So I looked some temple gates up, and it seems to be quite different looking than on your logo. Not that it's a particularly bad thing, I just wouldn't have made the connection. The abstract approach is fine too.
This is quite nice, immediately caught my attention is a great start, I share what Charlie said about the subtext, the rest seems fine.
Good job!
Why is there a little thing over the plam tree blue and why the gate is 2 differents colors (blue as the wording and red)
I like the symbol idea. It's illustrative, but not cluttered and messy. The font is ok, nothing I'm super crazy about, but not bad either. The thing I would change about the typography is the actual layout of the words. Maybe try having Bali be obviously smaller or larger than the other two words or try having the two words on one line and then Bali smaller and below it. Right now the three words are just taking up a lot of space that doesn't seem necessary. The colors are a bit heavy. I would say to maybe try a lot of neutral colors or all shades of cool colors (different shades of blues and greens) that way the sun which is the conceptual focus of the symbol stands out more.
