Best Places In Bali For Villa Investment
8 January 2022 by Ade
So you’ve made the decision to invest in a villa here in Bali. Congratulations on such a big step! Before the sale is final, you’ll need to decide on a few things, and the location of your new villa will be one of the top 3 most important decisions to make.
As you know, location is everything. It is a very personal choice and would really depend on what you’re looking for. Every town and area in Bali is incredibly unique with something special to offer, and its own special vibe and atmosphere.
Let’s take a look at the best places in Bali for a villa investment!
Seminyak / Petitenget / Umalas
Seminyak and its sister neighbourhoods of Petitenget and Umalas would be the number 1 preferred location for investors as it is the favourite neighbourhood for holidaymakers, expats, and travellers. It is Bali’s most fashionable seaside town with all of the hottest cafes, restaurants, hotels, spas, clubs, beach clubs, and shopping all within minutes away from each other. Seminyak and nearby give off a luxurious, up-market feel, a vibe that many villa homeowners lust after. This would be the ideal choice for those who love excitement and entertainment.
If you’re looking for a more modern, hip, energetic vibe in a cool, boho-chic seaside town, then Canggu’s your best bet! It’s South Bali’s fastest-growing area with a healthy mix of residents comprising digital nomads, yoga and health enthusiasts, artists, business people, and locals. The villas here are more modern and aesthetically pleasing. Villas are newer, with more garden space and better views. Instead of rooftops and walls, you can actually wake up to rice field views and amazing sunrises!
Another favourite with expats and investors, Sanur has everything you need for a luxurious island lifestyle. There are gorgeous villas here and the trendiest cafes, restaurants, spas, and shopping. The beach is a glorious stretch of soft golden sand all connected to each other with a wide stone walkway lined with lovely eateries, warungs, and shops. The water here is calm and safe for small children, plus, there are actual sidewalks on the main streets! Sanur is great for families and is definitely more peaceful, greener, and less crowded than Seminyak and Canggu. If it’s a nice, quiet, and tranquil lifestyle that you’re after, then Sanur is perfect for you!
Fantastic location for those who love nature and want to really embrace the feelings of peace and oneness with the island. Ubud is Bali’s cultural, spiritual, and creative centre and has been attracting healers, yogis, artists, and those who love the lush, green vibe of the town for decades. There are plenty of art galleries, museums, and workshops that you can attend like wood carving and mask making. In central Ubud, you can enjoy a delicious meal at any of the trendy restaurants and cafes or drive out for a few minutes to the outskirts for unending rice fields and jungle views.
These are just some of the more popular locations in Bali for a villa investment. Of course, you can also explore Bali’s Bukit Peninsula area – Uluwatu, Bingin, Jimbaran, and Pecatu or go north to Lovina, or to East Bali and West Bali if you like.
