Protecting local culture is one of the sustainable development principles. Balinese Architecture is an embodiment of the cosmological Balinese Hindu concept, which is the local community’s way of life so that it needs to be preserved. The application of the Tri Mandala concept in modern building design through the neo vernacular architecture approach is a way to preserve Balinese culture. This paper is an exploration of the implementation of the cosmological traditional concept of Tri Mandala in the spatial organization of a modern resort hotel without changing its true meaning. The approach used is trough defining the traditional meaning of Tri Mandala and interpretation into the modern function context in resort hotel design in Kuta Bali. As a result, Tri Mandala divides space into three parts, namely Utama, Madya, Nista which means sacred, neutral, less sacred is realized in the zoning organization of private as unit rooms, public area as lobby, restaurant, drop off, and service area as kitchen and parking lot.
