This study examines the morphological characteristics of Green Tourism Villages in Taro Village, Gianyar Regency, Bali, which consists of 14 Banjars (hamlets). The research aims to evaluate the sustainability performance of the village based on integrated green rating tools, including Greenship Neighborhood, LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), Green Tourism, and N-Green V. Data were collected through field surveys, direct observations, structured interviews with community leaders, and a literature review of relevant sustainability assessment frameworks. The indicators assessed cover land use allocation, building form, circulation systems, open spaces, environmental quality, infrastructure, and waste management systems. The findings reveal that Taro Village generally aligns with sustainability principles, with strengths observed in land use practices, biodiversity preservation, and effective waste management, such as organic waste recycling and composting. However, challenges remain in biodiversity monitoring and the absence of public transportation infrastructure. This research concludes that integrating morphological analysis with green rating tools offers a comprehensive framework for assessing and enhancing sustainability in rural tourism villages, providing a replicable model for similar regions in Indonesia
