Raffles Bali Secures Prestigious Green Globe Certification for Pioneering Sustainable Luxury

Sunday, April 14, 2024

Green Globe has recently bestowed its inaugural certification upon Raffles Bali, a luxurious hillside retreat boasting 32 oceanfront villas overlooking Jimbaran Bay. Each villa is a sanctuary unto itself, featuring a private pool and garden, providing guests with unparalleled tranquility. Raffles Bali not only offers opulence but also upholds a commitment to authenticity and responsibility, honoring and preserving Balinese cultural and natural heritage through a myriad of sustainability initiatives outlined in its comprehensive management plan.

Environmental consciousness is ingrained in every aspect of Raffles Bali’s operations. The architecture harmonizes with the natural landscape, preserving existing plantation layouts and rock formations while enhancing the surrounding beauty with carefully landscaped areas. Water conservation is paramount, facilitated by innovative water recycling systems that minimize reliance on external water sources. Energy-saving measures, including advanced building and guest room management systems, high-efficiency HVAC systems, and LED lighting, underscore the resort’s dedication to reducing its ecological footprint.

Moreover, Raffles Bali champions eco-friendly initiatives such as responsible waste management and the production of Eco Enzyme products from kitchen scraps, contributing to a sustainable cycle of resource utilization. The resort is committed to giving back to the community, supporting charitable causes, and fostering regional economic growth. Through partnerships with local organizations like SOS (Scholars of Sustenance), Raffles Bali donates surplus food to support children’s nutrition programs, while also providing employment opportunities for the local populace and showcasing traditional Balinese cultural experiences within the resort.

Furthermore, Raffles Bali actively engages in corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives, offering internships and post-educational employment opportunities in collaboration with Indonesian tourism and culinary schools. The resort’s partnership with Accor Hotels extends its support to Sanggar Begudul, an educational facility benefiting orphanages in the region. Additionally, Raffles Bali participates in environmental conservation efforts, charitable activities, and promotes inclusive employment practices, embodying its commitment to sustainability and social responsibility.
