Travel And Tour World had the opportunity to interview, , at Renaissance Bali Uluwatu Resort & Spa, a premier luxury destination nestled in the scenic cliffs of Uluwatu, Bali. With a robust background in hospitality sales and marketing, Puspadi plays a pivotal role in driving the resort’s commercial strategies, focusing on both leisure and corporate clientele.

What sets Renaissance Bali Uluwatu apart is the combination of state-of-the-art MICE facilities and our  elevated, destination-inspired experiences. Renaissance Bali Uluwatu Resort & Spa is home to the  largest event space in the area, offering 2,210 sqm across 11 venues, including the Uluwatu Ballroom  with a built-in LED screen. Our meeting studios are bathed in natural light and open to sweeping coastal  views, fostering creativity and focus.  

To elevate MICE experiences, we offer five signature thematic coffee breaks – Chef’s Garden, Sangkar,  Pasar Senggol, Golf ParTee, and Rencycle – each designed to engage the senses and reflect the spirit of  Bali. These unique breaks are complemented by our dedicated pork-free banquet kitchen, led by our  culinary team using ingredients from halal-certified local suppliers, ensuring comfort and inclusivity for  all attendees. 

The resort’s location is another advantage, just minutes from GWK Cultural Park, Uluwatu Temple, and  Pandawa Beach, making it an ideal base for group outings and cultural excursions. With curated group  activities such as pottery classes, yoga, or cycling across the scenic Bukit area, Renaissance Bali Uluwatu  transforms meetings into immersive, culturally rich retreats. 

Whether hosting conferences, incentives, or intimate corporate gatherings, Renaissance Bali Uluwatu  Resort & Spa delivers a setting that invites guests to discover the unexpected at every turn. 

At Renaissance Bali Uluwatu Resort & Spa, sustainability is not just a responsibility, it’s part of our  identity. We are proud to have recently achieved Green Globe Certification, a recognition of our  continuous efforts to operate responsibly and in harmony with our surroundings. 

Sustainability is reflected from the ground up – our architecture draws inspiration from Bali’s traditional  Terasering (rice terrace) landscapes, while interior design features elements like ceramic-woven  headboards and fish-trap-inspired lighting, which pay homage to local craftsmanship and natural  materials. 

Operationally, we incorporate water and energy conservation measures, reduce single-use plastics, and  source ingredients from local suppliers to minimize our footprint and support the community.  

As part of our MICE offering, the Chef’s Garden themed coffee break highlights our sustainable  approach, giving guests a taste of freshness while showcasing our farm-to-table philosophy.  Additionally, the Rencycle coffee break demonstrates creative reuse, transforming everyday items into  décor and conversation starters, reinforcing our belief that sustainability can be both meaningful and  memorable. 

For group experiences, we go a step further by offering coral planting activities at Roosterfish Beach  Club, allowing guests to participate in reef restoration efforts while enjoying Bali’s natural beauty. These  meaningful engagements not only align with our commitment to the environment but also create  memorable moments for our guests

Today’s travelers are looking for more than just relaxation, they’re seeking meaningful, restorative  experiences that also connect them to the destination. At Renaissance Bali Uluwatu Resort & Spa, we’ve  responded to this shift with a wide range of wellness and recreation offerings that reflect both the local  culture and the needs of modern guests. 

Our spa is a tranquil sanctuary, home to eight treatment rooms and a menu of wellness rituals that  incorporate locally inspired ingredients and expert techniques. It’s designed to provide not only physical  rejuvenation but also a deep sense of connection to the island. 

We’ve also expanded into more experiential leisure. Guests can take part in guided yoga, fit boxing, or  join the personal trainer sessions. For those wanting to slow down and connect more deeply with Bali’s  heritage, we offer Balinese cooking classes, and pottery workshops – all designed to provide a mindful,  immersive journey. 

For sun-soaked relaxation, guests can head to Roosterfish Beach Club, located at Pandawa Beach. This  vibrant and family-friendly beachfront escape features live music, ocean views, and a menu that  highlights the best from both land and sea. Every Sunday, the Family Seaside Brunch invites guests to  enjoy an ocean-inspired spread alongside fun and educational nature activities curated by Discovery  Lab, making it an ideal experience for families and explorers alike. 

This holistic approach ensures our guests not only relax, but also engage and discover throughout their  stay. 

We’re proud of our distinct culinary venues, each with its own character. At the heart of it is Double  Ikat, our Indonesian specialty restaurant inspired by the intricate and rare double ikat weaving tradition,  where both warp and weft threads are tie-dyed before weaving to form detailed patterns. Much like its  namesake, the restaurant weaves together stories of Indonesian heritage through food, design, and  performance. 

Double Ikat celebrates the richness of the archipelago with locally inspired dishes crafted from  traditional recipes and seasonal ingredients. The dining experience is elevated by cultural storytelling,  including weekly fire dance performances during Rasa Nusantara dinners and monthly Moonlight  Dinners featuring live Balinese arts. It’s a setting where cuisine meets cultural immersion. 

At Clay Craft, guests can enjoy a relaxed breakfast, including a selection of Indian dishes, complemented  by an in-house pottery studio, inviting a hands-on connection with local craftsmanship. 

Roosterfish Beach Club, located on Pandawa Beach, has also embraced a refreshed culinary concept,  “Best from the Land and Sea.” Here, dry-aged steaks and premium cuts share the spotlight with  signature seafood platters, bringing bold coastal flavors to a relaxed beachfront setting. Sundays are  reserved for Family Seaside Brunch, a relaxed, ocean-inspired feast paired with nature-led explorations  and fun educational activities from our Discovery Lab partnership.

Evenings at the resort carry the signature Evenings at Renaissance vibe, where each sunset brings a  sense of theatricality. Our punch bowl ritual, hosted in the lobby, serves as a gathering point for guests  to connect, taste, and discover something unexpected, perfectly embodying the Renaissance brand’s  spirit of spontaneous discovery. 

These curated culinary moments, enriched by storytelling, cultural depth, and creativity, offer not just  great meals, but immersive dining experiences for every guest. 

Storytelling and experience-led selling are key to our approach. At Renaissance Bali Uluwatu Resort &  Spa, we focus on showcasing not just the facilities, but the sense of place, discovery, and flexibility that  define our resort. We invite clients and guests to go beyond the expected, whether through immersive  FAM trips, curated site inspections, or personalized proposals that include destination-inspired  breakouts and creative thematic coffee breaks. 

For the MICE market, our R.E.N. Meetings concept is a standout, combining functional, light-filled  venues with cultural immersion. Delegates can enjoy thematic coffee breaks such as Chef’s Garden,  Sangkar, Pasar Senggol, Golf ParTee, or Rencycle, all infused with local flavor and sustainability. Group  activities like pottery workshops, yoga, fit boxing, or cycling through the scenic Bukit area elevate  meetings into memorable retreats. 

For business travelers, the ability to blend work with wellness and leisure in such a scenic, peaceful  environment is a major draw. Meanwhile, our leisure guests are attracted by our positioning as a  premium lifestyle resort in Uluwatu, with close proximity to iconic landmarks like Uluwatu Temple and  GWK Cultural Park, and access to iconic beaches like Pandawa. 

We’ve also found that consistent digital storytelling, close engagement with the travel trade, and long term partnerships with media and KOLs help amplify our reach. Ultimately, we aim to create emotional  connections, where guests remember not just what they saw or did, but how the experience made them  feel. 

At Renaissance Bali Uluwatu, we’re continually refining and elevating the experiences that define us,  from inspiring meeting concepts and engaging group activities to destination-led dining and curated  wellness. We continue to shape the resort as a preferred MICE destination, where business is seamlessly  balanced with leisure and cultural immersion. 

Our R.E.N. Meetings concept remains at the heart of our offering, with thoughtfully curated thematic  coffee breaks, such as Chef’s Garden, Sangkar, Pasar Senggol, Golf ParTee, and Rencycle, bringing a  strong sense of place and creativity to the meeting journey. The resort’s flexible venues, bathed in  natural light and overlooking the coastline, are ideal for meetings, incentives, and executive retreats. 

Additionally, Roosterfish Beach Club, set on Pandawa Beach, has become an increasingly in-demand  venue for private events, from corporate gatherings to beachfront wedding receptions and milestone 

celebrations. Its vibrant setting, live music, and fresh “land and sea” dining concept make it a dynamic  extension of the resort experience. 

We’re focused on maintaining this momentum by continuing to deliver unexpected discoveries,  meaningful moments, and genuine connections rooted in the destination.
