Introduction of Bali Market Outlook

Bali’s real estate and property investment market is entering a new phase of growth, showing remarkable resilience and adaptability in the post-pandemic era. Recent data highlights a significant recovery, with an increase in visitors in June 2024 compared to the same period last year. From January to July 2024, Bali welcomed approximately almost 3,6 million foreign visitors, marking a 22,18 % rise from the previous year. This surge in tourism has directly influenced the property market, driving up occupancy rates for both popular and newly developed villas, making the short-term rental market an increasingly attractive option for investors seeking rental income.

Hello, I’m Jason, a journalist from Bukit Vista. As Bali experiences a strong recovery and nearly 3.6 million foreign arrivals in 2024, the property market is booming. In this article, I’ll walk you through Bali’s 2024 Market Outlook, highlighting the top locations for property investment based on the latest trends and data.

While the market’s potential is clear, the path to a successful investment is fraught with challenges. Many investors find themselves struggling with critical decisions such as where to buy landwhat type of properties to develop, and how to anticipate and mitigate potential risks. These factors play a crucial role in determining the success or failure of an investment, particularly in a dynamic market like Bali.

Analyzing Key Investment Locations in Bali

One of the most critical decisions for any investor in Bali’s property market is selecting the right location. At Bukit Vista, we use data-driven tools to inform our investment decisions. In this context, we have created a heatmap that highlights growth trends based on Airbnb guest reviews from 2023 compared to the figures for 2024. This guest reviews are very crucial in providing insights about how the area performs and attracts tourists.

The island offers a variety of locations, each with its unique appeal and potential for return on investment. For instance, areas like Canggu and Seminyak continue to thrive, attracting a steady stream of tourists and offering a stable market for luxury villas and boutique accommodations. These locations are well-suited for investors looking to tap into the high-end short-term rental market.

Tourist reviews grew 50.81%, boosting luxury villa demand.
Seminyak sees 25.67% growth, remains tourist hotspot.

On the other hand, emerging areas such as Uluwatu which is located in Pecatu and Jimbaran are gaining traction, particularly among those seeking more serene and scenic environments. These locations are ideal for investors interested in developing boutique resorts or eco-friendly villas that cater to a growing segment of travelers looking for unique, off-the-beaten-path experiences.

Pecatu's 39.15% growth highlights eco-resort potential.
Ungasan review growth of 59.60% attracts investors.

To illustrate the potential of specific locations, let’s take a look at the occupancy rates in the Ungasan area. As shown in the graph above, comparing the occupancy rates from 2023 and 2024 reveals a noticeable increase in stability, with rates consistently remaining above 75% over the past seven months. This stability highlights Ungasan as a promising location for investors seeking reliable returns in the short-term rental market.

Our heatmap reinforces the importance of location when it comes to maximizing returns. Ungasan’s consistent performance, paired with Bali’s stable occupancy rates, makes it not only a desirable investment market but also a sustainable one for those looking for long-term revenue.

For those interested in long-term investments, areas like Ubud, which focus on cultural and wellness tourism, offer excellent opportunities for developing retreat centers or holistic resorts that can attract tourists year-round.
