Bali is a must-visit, at least once in your life. The island is unique in all the world, with its own culture, traditions, religion and Balinese people. It also goes without saying that Bali is one of the most beautiful holiday destinations with breathtaking nature that is so varied and unique to each district and area. It’s also family-friendly and great for travelers of all ages including solo travelers, sun-seekers, thrill-seekers and group excursions. Many people don’t know this, but Bali is a large island – it could take weeks, if not months to truly discover what the island has to offer. You could take your time to explore the island, including the south, the center, north, east and west, not to mention the sister islands, Nusa Lembongan, Ceningan and Penida. Here are some exciting things to do while you’re here in Bali: Beautiful Beaches Bali’s beaches offer unique attractions that are all so different. If you want a “castaway” experience, head to Green Bowl Beach and Padang-Padang in Pecatu, an area much loved by surfers for its challenging waves. For something trendy, head to Seminyak Beach or Echo Beach in Canggu. Petitenget Beach is great for quiet sunsets and calming walks without any distracting beach shacks and loud music. Nusa Dua Beach and Sanur Beach are perfect for families thanks to their calm and shallow waters. For a good seafood meal with a view, head to Jimbaran Beach. Incredible Parties & Nightlife You’ll never run out of a trendy beach club or a cocktail bar while you’re in Bali. There are beach clubs, day clubs, night clubs, bars, speakeasies and lifestyle centers like the brand-new Atlas in Canggu. The food in these venues is outstanding, with incredible cocktails, ice-cold beer and a plethora of drinks to choose from. Of course, the music in these venues is world-class, so get ready to groove to killer tunes by world-renowned international DJs and artists. Ancient Temples On your holiday, take the opportunity to visit some of the more popular Balinese temples. Pura Lempuyang, Pura Tanah Lot, Pura Saraswati, Pura Luhur Besakih and Pura Ulun Danu Beratan are just some of the more popular temples that are also amazing Instagram spots with breathtaking backdrops that will blow up your feed. Don’t forget to add Pura Luhur Uluwatu to your list, for magical cliff-top views and an out-of-this-world kecak performance at sunset! Bali is also great for shopping, dining, spa sessions and for snorkeling and diving. Those who love trekking and hiking can go mountain climbing or cycle through villages and rice fields. Thrill-seekers can go ATV racing, white-water rafting and zip-lining. To do all of this and more, why not make the island your home away from home? You could rent a beautiful tropical villa monthly and make that your base while you explore. The first thing you need to do is pick a location. Places in South Bali that are popular with tourists include Seminyak, Kuta, Legian, Canggu, Sanur, Jimbaran and Uluwatu. You could also get out into the countryside and head to Ubud, Lovina, Amed or Candidasa if you so wish. Ready to begin your Bali adventure?

One of the best things about living in Bali is that you’ll get your pick of beautiful homes just minutes away from the beach. There are no shortages of wonderful homes to choose from, whether villas, apartments, or guesthouses.   An apartment is a fantastic choice if you’re looking for something modern, luxurious, spacious, and fully equipped. You’ll get to enjoy all the luxury and comfort of modern living without having to pay for the price of a lavish tropical villa. You’ll also get to enjoy maximum privacy and security too as most apartments are built within a secured and gated compound with CCTVs.   Apartments are also the smarter and more convenient choice for those who are often busy and on the go. Fees would usually include utilities, maintenance, and upkeep. The exteriors and communal areas like the pool and garden would be maintained by the landlord. All you really need to do is move in!   If you’re in the market for some lovely, modern, and luxurious apartments here in Bali, here are some amazing picks that you can consider: Alma Seminyak Apartment A stunning two-storey, self-contained and fully-furnished loft apartment, Alma Seminyak is modern and pristine, with spacious living and dining on the ground floor.

If you’re an artistic soul or someone who prefers a home with character instead of the usual sleek and contemporary, then this apartment is for you.

The kitchen is nestled in its own cosy nook, complete with cooking utensils and apparatuses. The plush king-sized bed is located within the same space but behind a wall of artistic bamboo accents for a sense of privacy.   Miranda apartment is fully furnished with colonial-inspired rattan furniture created for modern living. The grey cement floors create a beautiful contrast to the vibrantly coloured walls, with tropical-themed lighting and carpets that pull the entire space together.

Alma Canggu Apartment This two-storey, self-contained, and fully-furnished loft apartment was designed to mimic the unique structure and styles of the famous blue-and-white houses that dot the hillsides of Santorini, Greece.   It is located within its own gated space, with a cobblestone walkway, stark white exteriors, delightful blue doors and windows, and garlands of Bougainvilleas adding a pretty dash of colour to the entire ambience.   There is a spacious living and dining room on the ground floor. There is also a fully-equipped kitchen, plenty of storage space, a modern and contemporary bathroom, and a balcony on the rooftop.   The bedroom is on the second floor, a cosy and intimate space with a small skylight near the ceiling, which gives the room a bright and airy feel.

Staying in a villa gives you all the space and privacy that you could ever need. Here in Bali, villas are wonderfully luxurious and yet so affordable.

Most people don’t realize that their lifestyles can be affected by the style of their homes. At least, the apartment-style villas of Menara Loft Apartment would give you a fresh, new perspective of what could be possible while staying in a Bali long-term villa.   A Studio Apartment for Long Term Rental in Bali   In a post last month, we covered Leo Apartments in east Kerobokan, a beautiful complex comprising several 2-story apartment units and a shared pool — a typical Balinese apartment usually looks like this.   But Menara Loft Apartment is different. Nestled on 120 square meters of land, this exclusive unit is a modern home with its own pool and a private garden patio. The villa makes use of loft architecture to create additional space for a ‘bedroom’, which is fitted over the dining room, and by doing so, creating a sense of openness and space. In fact, as the name suggests, Menara Loft Apartment does feel like it has plenty of breathing room, both indoors and outdoors.   The perfect home for couples   When it rains, the light tapping of the raindrops echoing against the solid wood board ceiling will lull you into a state of relaxation and peace as you cozy up with your partner in the loft-style bedroom. It is technically not a bedroom — we would classify the entire home as a studio apartment with a villa setting.   Absolutely perfect for child-free couples, this loft-style studio apartment is the ideal long term rental home that provides a fantastic living space at an affordable yearly rate.   Incredibly Close to the Beach   The added benefits of Menara Loft Apartment to your modern lifestyle do not stop there. How would you like to go on a routine walk to the beach with your partner? No plans, no preparations, just a spontaneous walk to Berawa beach — which would take you no more than 20 minutes to reach on foot (5 minutes with a scooter)!   Would you like to know more about this loft apartment? Call us at +62 361 847 6727 (Bali Coconut Living) and we’ll show you around the place.

Last year, we have published an article (Where to rent a villa in Bali?) to show both buyers and sellers of property rentals what the different locations across Bali can offer.   However, for serious people looking to invest in property, simply knowing where your customers are renting is not enough justification to pick a location for your investment.   But this fact is good news because it gives you more options. You can still make sound investments even on property that is not prime real estate such as Seminyak, Kuta, or Uluwatu. You can still start your project even with limited funds.   You just have to follow the 4 rules of thumb for a smooth property business: 1. Place bets on development 2. Know your neighborhood 3. Know your customers 4. Opt for low maintenance properties   1. Place bets on development   The first principle is counter intuitive. You know that Seminyak, Kuta, Uluwatu and many ‘hotspots’ have high occupancy rates, attractive neighborhoods, and are the first places people read about when they look up ‘Bali’ online.   Well, they are incredibly expensive properties to buy. You will also compete with people who have a ton of experience in the playing field. In addition, tourism never stays in one location; it spreads out.   You should learn to predict future developments in tourism. While still cheap, buy properties in Canggu, Mengwi, Pererenan, Karangasem, and be one of the first to play the property game here.         2. Know your neighborhood   Developing areas still have natural and cultural features that are relatively untouched, which can become your USP (Unique Selling Point). Despite all the advice that you read about investing in Bali properties, you don’t need to get close to the beach.   Look at Ubud. It’s a hilly little town whose growth in tourism is fueled by peaceful terrace rice fields and a Monkey Forest. The nearest coastline is 40 minutes away by car.   Pick an area that is close to undiscovered natural attractions, like an increasingly popular hiking route, a beautiful view point, or an untouched bay where locals enjoy swimming.   Make sure that your property is accessible by car (i.e. located on the main road). Take some free insight from our Location Guide.   3. Know your customers   Think beyond ‘tropical beach paradise and martinis’ – Bali offers more than that. Instead, think of ‘escapism’ as the main attractive quality of the island. People come here to release tension of everyday living through various ways – yoga, surfing, night clubs, photography, trekking, and more.   Bali is also becoming an increasingly popular destination for digital nomads – they come here to discover fresh perspectives and a new work-life balance.   Work with what you have, and build your property around accommodating the unique needs of your market.   4. Opt for low maintenance properties   If you are building your villa or holiday home from scratch, pay attention to how reliable the land is. Is it prone to drought or flooding?   If you bought land with a property, carefully inspect the building. Does it need repainting? Any facility replacements?   A long-term property investment requires a marketing strategy   If you’re worried about the low occupancy rate, make use of free social media platforms to advertise your property or advertise via word-of-mouth.   Businesses usually run slowly at first, but if you invest in digital marketing (buying a simple website, for example), your property will have a better presence and image online, and would outcompete other new players that are still behind in marketing.   Bali Coconut Living is not only a property agency – we can advertise your property, manage it for you, and even give you some consultation from legal aspects to investment advice.

The steady growth of visitors coming to Bali is a confident signal that there is no shortage of potential tenants. However, you will most likely compete with the well-established hotel industry, if not other property owners in the market.   So how can you find tenants for your newly polished and treasured property asset? One of the easiest ways to market your property is through our property listing at Bali Coconut Living.   Why Bali Coconut Living?   Unlike most property agencies, we go above and beyond simply advertising your property online, in the hope that the right people will come to the right web page.   We think that the chances of this happening are astronomically small. So instead of waiting for tenants to find your property, we proactively add value to your properties.   Villa Management and Marketing Services   We understand that the property purchase was only half the battle. Maintaining the property to its fullest potential takes a lot of work, but that’s not all there is to do.   In order to receive positive referrals from your guests, it would be wise to provide services to cater to their unique needs and expectations.   Guest services and Day-to-day Operations: Trained hospitality staff and managers will ensure that your villa is as welcoming and comfortable as possible.   Building and technical maintenance: Our reliable technical staff ensures that no power outage or drought can dramatically decrease the level of comfort and happiness of your guests.   You can also rely on our marketing team not only to advertise your villa’s availability, but also to simplify the booking and payment process.
