At Plataran, a stay goes beyond the luxurious accommodations and exquisite dining experiences. It becomes a meaningful connection with nature, an opportunity for guests to contribute to a greater cause. Through "Plataran for the Earth," a mangrove tree is planted for every Plataran stay, eligible dining, and event experience. This act is a symbolic gesture of gratitude to Mother Earth, embodying the philosophy of giving back.


Responding to Bromo's Call for Restoration

In September 2023, a devastating wildfire ravaged Bromo's iconic savanna, impacting both the local commåunity and the delicate ecosystem. Plataran Indonesia, fueled by the belief that collective action can rewrite the narrative, has decided to redirect its tree-planting efforts. The focus now shifts from West Bali National Park to Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, aiming to contribute to the revival of Bromo's natural glory.

Plataran's guests are not mere observers; they are integral participants in the mission to restore and rejuvenate Bromo. Each guest becomes a steward of nature, leaving a lasting impact on the environment. The act of planting a tree in Bromo on behalf of every guest is a testament to the shared commitment to sustainability and environmental consciousness.

The decision to plant trees in Bromo signifies a tangible effort to heal and restore what was lost in the wildfire. Plataran is not only contributing to the reforestation of Bromo but also nurturing a sense of hope and renewal within the community. The planted trees stand as symbols of resilience and unity, bridging the gap between humanity and nature.

"Plataran for the Earth" becomes a collective journey, where guests, staff, and the local community join hands to create a sustainable future. It's a reminder that small actions, like planting a tree, can ripple into significant positive change. Through this initiative, Plataran envisions a harmonious coexistence between luxury hospitality and environmental responsibility.

In the face of adversity, Plataran forges ahead with a renewed purpose, redirecting its eco-conscious efforts to the restoration of Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. By planting trees in Bromo, Plataran invites its guests to be active participants in the larger narrative of environmental conservation. The journey towards rekindling Bromo's natural glory has just begun, and each planted tree symbolizes a step towards a more sustainable and harmonious future.
