AYANA Bali Earns ASEAN Green Hotel Award for Its Commitment to Sustainable Hospitality
As sustainability continues to shape the future of travel, meaningful environmental action has become an important benchmark for luxury hospitality.
Reinforcing its long-term commitment to responsible tourism, AYANA Bali has been recognised with the ASEAN Green Hotel Award 2026–2028, a regional accolade presented to hotels demonstrating measurable excellence in environmental management and sustainable operations across Southeast Asia.
The recognition was presented during the ASEAN Tourism Standards Awards in Cebu, Philippines, following a comprehensive evaluation process that assesses environmental performance, operational practices, and national sustainability standards before advancing properties for regional consideration. For Indonesia’s hospitality industry, the award represents one of the region’s most respected sustainability benchmarks.
Spanning 90 hectares along the cliffs of Jimbaran, AYANA Bali approaches sustainability as an integrated part of daily resort operations rather than a collection of standalone initiatives. Across its four hotels, 31 dining venues, landscaped gardens, and extensive facilities, environmental management is woven into everything from resource efficiency and procurement to water conservation, biodiversity, and waste management.
Among the resort’s ongoing initiatives are solar energy systems with a current capacity of 854 kWp, advanced wastewater recycling for landscape irrigation, reduced reliance on single-use plastics, and partnerships with local suppliers that support more responsible sourcing. Guests may also discover AYANA Farm, the resort’s two-hectare organic farm supplying fresh produce to its restaurants, alongside Tevana Garden, a six-hectare botanical landscape that preserves native flora while encouraging greater appreciation for Bali’s biodiversity.
Beyond environmental infrastructure, AYANA Bali continues to strengthen its relationship with local communities through educational programmes, collaborations with schools and sustainability organisations, and practical waste management initiatives. Food waste is repurposed into animal feed through community partnerships, garden waste is composted for landscape use, and refillable amenities continue to reduce plastic consumption throughout the resort. These efforts reflect a broader understanding that sustainable tourism depends on collaboration between businesses, communities, and local stakeholders.
The ASEAN Green Hotel Award also builds upon AYANA Bali’s wider sustainability journey, following its achievement of EarthCheck Gold Certification in 2025 after five consecutive years of independently audited environmental performance. Together, these recognitions highlight the resort’s ongoing investment in responsible hospitality while offering travellers greater confidence that luxury experiences and environmental stewardship can exist side by side.
