Staying in a private villa has become a popular choice when enjoying a holiday in Bali. There’s no better feeling than waking up in a luxurious villa and having your own private pool right in your backyard. Renting a villa in Bali is great for those seeking privacy, luxury and comfort all in one place.

Additionally, we are seeing an increasing number of expats wanting to call Bali their home. More and more villas are available for long-term rentals, whether monthly or yearly. However, choosing your holiday home or yearly rental doesn’t happen overnight.

Location matters

In order to select the best villa for you, you need to make a few decisions first. One of the most significant factors is location. Where should you rent a villa in Bali?

It may be tricky as all the areas are quite different to one another. To help you out, here is a guide about where to rent a villa in Bali, so you can make the most of your stay in paradise!

Kuta

Although Kuta used to be an icon of Bali, over the years it has become known as the party center of the island. If you’re into hardcore partying, like those at Sky Garden, Bounty or Paddy’s, then Kuta could be a good option. The town is brimming with bars, nightclubs and small local shops.

Staying in Kuta also provides easy access to the airport and the famous Kuta beach. You can find big shopping malls such as Beachwalk, Discovery Shopping Mall and Galeria Mall Bali.

Seminyak

The most fashionable district of Bali is no doubt Seminyak. If you’re into a more sophisticated lifestyle, Seminyak might be just the ‘hood’ for you. It’s home to plenty of sexy beach clubs, lavish restaurants, cute cafes, premium international boutiques and, of course, luxurious villas! Think villas with sleek interior design equipped with private pools and impeccable service.

Canggu

Also known as “Ubud by the sea”, Canggu is a magnet for yoga enthusiasts, surfers, skaters and healthy organic food lovers. Properties in this area benefit from laidback vibes with peaceful green rice paddy views.

The café scene in Canggu is also constantly growing with various dining options. Whether you want to dine in style, eat at a traditional local warung or hang out at Canggu’s coolest cafes, there’s a great spot on every corner of Canggu.

Kerobokan

Only minutes away from Canggu and Seminyak, Kerobokan is another favorite place to rent a villa in Bali. The town has plenty of chic villas surrounded by beautiful rice fields. You’ll find a wide range of restaurants and cafes as well as favored spa destinations nearby.

Ubud
