December, 2024 – We’re excited to share that Waterbom Bali proudly accepted two prestigious awards at The Punch Sustainability Awards in Ubud on 7 December 2024, which also happened to be our 31st anniversary on the same day! What a way to celebrate!

We were honored to take home the ‘Sustainable Business of the Year’ award, recognizing our commitment to environmental preservation through our Karmic Returns program, which includes our onsite waste management systems, initiatives for reducing single-use plastics, plus our focus on optimizing renewable energy and water conservation.

Concurrently, our CEO, Sayan Gulino, was recognized as ‘Impact Hero of the Year’ for his leadership in transforming Waterbom Bali into a sustainable business model which aims to benefit the environment and our local community. His passion for the environment and his love of nature is his driving force!

Of course we are grateful to our Sustainability Consultants, Eco-Mantra, who provide us with essential guidance and expertise to help us set and reach our sustainability goals as they work closely with our internal Green Team (shout out to Surya Windu, Syifa and Rahel!) to drive our initiatives every year.

The Punch Sustainability Awards is an industry event that honors those making a difference in sustainability across tourism and business in Bali. We’re grateful to be recognised within the community alongside some passionate businesses on the same path as us - Desa Potato Head, Terra Water, Eco-Mantra, and ChopValue.

Receiving these types of accolades motivates our team further and keeps us focused on reaching our goal of Net Zero by 2033, as we continue on our journey to become the World’s most sustainable waterpark.

Together, we can create a more sustainable future for our planet and future generations!
