Declaring his "mixed emotions" at leaving both Bali and the Hyatt Corporation, the hard working and well-respected Director of Marketing of the Grand Hyatt Resort has accepted the challenge of his first General Manager's position with Banyan Tree's Allamanda Laguna Resort in Phuket, Thailand.
Mr. Darmawan first joined the Grand Hyatt in August of 1992 as a Sales Executive, quickly climbing the ranks until his appointment as Director of Marketing for Hyatt Resorts Bali, a role incorporating responsibility for both of Hyatt's properties in Bali.
In saying "good-bye" to a company and an island he's called home for the past 11 years, Arifin said he will miss Bali's "exotic island, unique culture, hospitable people ... where he learned a lot about the challenges of working in a cross cultural environment."
