Magic Bamboo Villa

Foreigners cannot own freehold land in Indonesia — this is reserved for Indonesian citizens. However, foreigners can legally hold leasehold rights (Hak Sewa), which grant full usage and profit rights for a fixed period. This is the standard and legal way for international investors to own property in Bali. The lease is registered with a notary and your rights are fully protected under Indonesian law.

Freehold (Hak Milik) means permanent ownership — only available to Indonesian citizens. Leasehold (Hak Sewa) means you have exclusive rights to use and profit from the property for a set period — in this case to 27 March 2048, with 21 years and 6 months remaining. Think of it like a long-term lease in London or Singapore: you control the property, collect all income, and can sell your lease at any time.

We want to be precise here, because our earlier material was not. The deed does not grant a guaranteed extension. It obliges both parties to negotiate one at least a year before expiry, and the price is not fixed. You should underwrite this on 21.5 years and treat any extension as upside.

In practice, the landowners hold a single parcel divided into thirteen leased plots and are in the land-rent business, not hospitality — re-letting to the sitting tenant is their cheapest outcome, and renewal is usually discussed years ahead. That explains why extension is normally available; it does not make it a right.

Over the remaining term at the 2025 level, net income comes to roughly 2.3 times the purchase price. At expiry the buildings revert to the landowners, which is standard for Bali leasehold — the yield, not a resale value, is the case. You can also sell your remaining lease at any point.

You don't have to. Our team handles everything for you: guest bookings, check-ins, cleaning, maintenance, repairs, and communication. You receive monthly reports and your profits are transferred directly to your bank account. The management fee is already included in the net income figures above.

Yes. You can sell your lease at any time to another investor. You can also extend the lease before selling to increase its value. The Bali property market has seen consistent appreciation, especially for well-maintained, income-generating villas.

Bali welcomed 6.95 million foreign arrivals in 2025, up 9.7% on the year before. The key is property quality and licensing. This villa holds a 4.86-star rating across 65 reviews and ran at 83.5% occupancy through 2026 — well above the 60–65% typical for Canggu. Bamboo villas are particularly unique and command premium rates.
