This study is motivated by the number of tourist villages in Bali that do not care about sustainability and are not as promoted as eco-villages, instead deteriorating the natural environment due to its development, and aims to analyze the community and tourist perceptions on sustainable tourism in eco-villages of Sanur Kauh village in urban area and of Blimbingsari village in rural area. Differences among community are analyzed based on gender, stakeholder roles, age, and occupation variables, education, tourism conscious. Also, the differences among tourists were analyzed based on gender, origin, age, occupation, education, travel method, and travel urpose. For the two groups, differences in perceptions were analyzed based on the indicators of Attention to Environmental Burden (AEB) and Concern for Conservation Efforts (CCE) that construct the Perceptions of Sustainability questionnaire. The results found that there were significant differences between the Community and the Tourists in terms of AEB (F=26,561; p<0,01), CCE (F=32,508; p<0,01), and Perceptions of Sustainability (F=31,377; p<0,01), and between the community and the community and tourists and tourists both in Sanur Kauh and Blimbingsari in terms of AEB (F = 113,490; p <0.01), CCE (F = 96.540; p <0.01), and Perception on sustainable tourism (F=111,294; p<0,01). However, the difference between the community and tourists in both Sanur Kauh and Blimbingsari only occurred in terms of CCE (F=11.809; p<0.01) and Perception of Sustainability (F=5.831; p<0.05). Thus, the difference in perceptions of sustainable tourism influenced by the village’s location and environment. People and tourists in rural areas have better perception than those in urban areas.

This study elaborates the challenges of Green Hotel implementation. The questionnaire is firstly developed in this study but constructed from Green Hotel Guidelines (GHG) measurement items which are issued by Ministry of Tourism of the Republic of Indonesia. The data collected is analyzed with Importance-Performance Analysis which also known as Gap Analysis as for the results reveal the gap between perception and the expectation of the stakeholders towards Green Hotel along with different understanding on the aspects measured. There are two stakeholder groups that hinder the implementation of a green hotel and make green hotels are slow to be developed.Keywords: Green Hotel; Green Hotel Guidelines, Gap AnalysiseISSN: 2398-4287 © 2019.

Plants are identify as a valuable element in visual landscape assessment. This study examines the visual landscape quality (VLQ) relationship towards students’ well-being. This study identifies the preferences of planting composition scenes through the photo-based survey method. The survey employs 51 scenes with 5-points Likert-scale rating. The PLS-SEM was used to interpret the findings. The findings show the preferred scenes are complexity and coherent arrangement, moderate density, and natural plants, compared to openness and mysterious characteristics. These characteristics support students’ engagement and positive emotions. This finding will assist the campus designers in improving the VLQ towards students’ well-being.   Keywords: Visual landscape quality; planting composition; students’ well-being; landscape preference eISSN: 2398-4287 © 2022.

On the 28 October 2019, the Government of Bali issued a Governor Ordinance No. 45/2019 prioritising(?)clean energy as the solution to the energy crisis in Bali. This crisis has been further exaserbated by the covid 19 pandemic which has decimated the Islands economy in particular, tourism, its primary industry. This has forced Bali to change its tourism orientation from urban tourism to rural tourismpromoting homestay, a shift which will signifcantly influence renewable energy planning for the Island. There are only two solar power plants on the island; one in Bangli and one in Karangasem each with 1 MWp on-Grid capacity. In addition there is a small hydro power plant in Buleleng with 1,95 MWp capacity, with existing rooftop PV power plant in the community generates around 1.3 MWp and 0.07 MWp off-grid. This leaves the Island with a signficant shortfall and must, in acocrdance with the Ordinance, be met through the promotion of community uptake of solar panel for homes and buildings. This paper presents the of the strategic planning approach used by a special task force supervisory team of Bali Clean Energy to implement the Ordinance for the island
