Jan 2026 - We’re incredibly grateful to share that Waterbom Bali has been awarded the Tri Hita Karana (THK) Lifetime Achievement Award 2025, a recognition that honours destinations demonstrating a long-term commitment to sustainable tourism and the Balinese philosophy of harmony.

Presented by Yayasan Tri Hita Karana, the Lifetime Achievement Award recognises just 14 hotels and tourism destinations that have consistently participated in the THK Tourism Awards program since the year 2000. It celebrates dedication over decades, not one-time achievements, and to be included among this small group is a true honour for us.

We’ve been part of the Tri Hita Karana Tourism Awards since our early years, first receiving Silver recognition prior to 2010. Over time, we progressed through Gold, Emerald, Platinum and Super Platinum levels. After returning post-pandemic, we were awarded Super Platinum IV in 2024, and in 2025, received the Lifetime Achievement Award - a milestone that reflects more than two decades of learning, commitment, and steady progress.

For us, the Tri Hita Karana philosophy, of harmony between people (pawongan), nature (palemahan), and the spiritual realm (parahyangan), has guided our values and how we operate every day. From water conservation and environmental initiatives to community engagement and cultural respect, our goal has always been to create joyful guest experiences while caring deeply for the island we call home.

This recognition means a great deal to our team, and especially to our leadership team. It reflects values that are close to our CEO Sayan’s heart and reinforces why being part of the Tri Hita Karana program matters so much to Waterbom Bali.

We receive this honour with gratitude and humility, and we remain committed to learning, improving, and contributing positively to Bali’s tourism future for many years to come.
