Alaya Resort Ubud proudly celebrated its 7th anniversary on 17th January 2020 at Manisan Restaurant with an appreciation event for its management team, all staff members and supporting partners. It essentially paid tribute to 7 years of dedicated service and heartfelt hospitality.

In the month leading up to the ‘Magnificent 7’ anniversary, the organising committee conducted a number of activities in line with Alaya’s corporate social responsibility program and its adherence to Tri Hita Karana. Staff members eagerly participated in a clean-up campaign, a blood drive with the local branch of the Red Cross, Darma Wacana, Jegeg Bagus Competition, Creative Video Competition, and Alaya’s Got Talent. Another inititiative included the announcement of our Employee, Supervisor and Manager of the Year award winners. There was also a staff outing to Basuka Marine Park in Tanjung Benoa that was held over two consecutive days so that everyone had a chance to enjoy some well-deserved fun.
