Impact-driven hospitality firm Plataran Indonesia continues to put environmental protection, cultural preservation, and community development first amongst its priorities on its way to becoming a true Indonesian icon for nature, culture, and the people.

By offering its guests exceptional experiences at its properties, Plataran Indonesia remains committed to play a pivotal role as an impactful homegrown hospitality group for Indonesia and Indonesians.

According to company founder and CEO Yozua Makes: “We always go back to our contribution to Nature, Culture, and Community as our three core pillars. We strive to make a positive impact in Indonesia’s hospitality industry, applying sustainability principles across all our properties, with a focus on environmental protection, cultural preservation, and community welfare.”

Upholding cherished principles

This principle is highly reflected in several Plataran Indonesia properties. For example, Plataran Komodo Resort & Spa, contributes to ongoing coral restoration efforts, supporting the health and resilience of coastal ecosystems. In collaboration with dedicated environmental organisations and local communities, 

Plataran Indonesia is working to restore damaged coral reefs, recognizing the importance of preserving marine life and supporting the livelihoods of those who depend on it. This initiative is a small but meaningful step in the ongoing journey to protect Indonesia’s natural heritage. 

Furthermore, the commitment to working quietly and collaboratively ensures that the country’s precious marine resources can be enjoyed by future generations.

Hospitality with impact

Plataran Indonesia’s direct contributions to its surroundings are evident in its various programs, such as tree planting and coral reef restoration through Plataran for The Earth, batik painting workshops through Plataran for The Heritage, and the empowerment of local SMEs through Plataran for The People. 

Through collaborations with UMKM Ecosystem, NGOs, and local sustainable businesses, Plataran Indonesia has successfully created a significant positive impact on the environment and surrounding communities.

As Makes explains: “Our goal is to create experiences that enrich our guests with cultural insights and benefit the communities around us. In this way, we hope to contribute to a more prosperous and sustainable Indonesia.”
