In today’s post, we’ll take you through our top picks of Bali retirement villages with gorgeous Bali villas for yearly rent, for a comfortable and relaxing, stress-free and worry-free retirement in Bali. Let’s take a look.

Ubud

Retirees in Bali looking for lush, peaceful surroundings with magical mountain and rice field views will feel right at home in Ubud. This Bali retirement village attracts all manner of creative souls, from artists to yogis, writers, carvers and painters and is renowned as Bali’s cultural and spiritual heartland. Retiring in Ubud means you could spend your days exploring temples, art galleries and art markets, watch dances and traditional performances. You could also spend your days enjoying the wonderful delights of Ubud town with the best shopping, dining and fun activities.

Jimbaran

Jimbaran is one of the very best Bali retirement villages for retirees to live in. It’s close to everything including the airport, Kuta and Nusa Dua and is on the halfway point to  Seminyak, Uluwatu, and Canggu. Everything you’ll need is within easy reach including private hospitals and clinics, great shopping and wonderful restaurants. Jimbaran Beach, a beautiful stretch of golden sandy beach, also doubles as the island’s famous seafood hub. Thanks to its hilly landscape and great location close to the sea, residents of Jimbaran enjoy the wonderful sea breeze that blows in from the bay all year round.

Sanur

A favorite with families, expats and retirees, Sanur is a beautiful seaside town that is truly idyllic and tranquil. It was one of the very first places to welcome tourists in the 1930s, and still permeates an atmosphere of “old Bali”. When retiring in Bali, you could spend your days exploring Sanur’s elegant dining venues, wonderful entertainment and great shopping. The main streets are lined with shady trees and wide sidewalks, making it a delight to explore. The beaches here are soft golden sands and calm waters, safe for swimming, with a wide stone promenade that is lined with restaurants, shops, beach clubs and cafes.

Nusa Dua

Resort-style living is easily within reach here in Nusa Dua, an up-market tourist destination and home to the BTDC, a luxury resort enclave. The beach in Nusa Dua has beautiful soft powdery white sands and gorgeous calm blue water. Retirees living in Nusa Dua will have easy access to lovely shops, malls, restaurants and attractions including Water Blow, which offers beautiful views and a lovely green park. There is also plenty of shopping to indulge in at Bali Collection or just pop by one of the many streetside shops.  

Uluwatu

Famous for amazing ocean views that never end, Uluwatu is a cliff-top haven that’s located in the Bukit Peninsula area of Bali, home to Bali’s most beautiful beaches like Dreamland, Padang Padang, Pecatu, Balangan and Bingin. With an ever-evolving dining scene, Uluwatu offers plenty of great locations to wine, dine and unwind. Choose from relaxed low-key joints to luxurious beach bars like Single Fin. It’s the ideal Bali retirement village for those who seek peace and tranquility, as Uluwatu is quite a distance away from the hustle and bustle of Kuta, Seminyak or Canggu. The locals are incredibly friendly, day-to-day living is affordable and there is a thriving community to get to know.
