The philosophy

In a market built on volume, we stay small on purpose. A handful of villas at a time — few enough that the developer still knows every detail of each one, and that you deal with him rather than with a sales team. Quality over quantity.

Villa Solena 1–3

Three one-bedroom villas with private pools, side by side on one plot at Nungalan, Pecatu. The first was handed over in September 2026; the other two are finished and waiting for their handover. One bedroom, one bathroom and its own pool per villa, behind the arched glass front you see here.

Why investors choose Kalani

Three commitments,
every project.

01

German developer, German standards

Run by a German developer working between Hamburg and Bali. Timelines, budgets and workmanship are held to the standard you know from home, and you talk to him rather than to an agent.

02

Boutique means small numbers

At most three identical units side by side on one plot. No row of twenty near-identical villas undercutting each other on the nightly rate the week after you take the keys.

03

Customisable during construction

Tiles, wall colours and details can still be changed while the villa is going up. On a standardised product that window does not exist.

Track record

What we have built,
and what we are building.

Delivered

Also delivered — two of the four Luxury Huts A–frames in Kedungu; the other two are still available off–plan. Photography still to come for Double Rahime Cubes, Self Storage and the fr-anz shop in Pererenan.

[ONE LINE ON THE LOA / KALANI BRAND HISTORY] — several of these were delivered under the Loa Villas brand, which shares this owner. The sentence that says so has still to be agreed.

Dariusch Zadeh Founder · Kalani Real Estate

I came to Bali from Germany during COVID. I rented villas and renovated them, and I spent years learning the trade on other people’s buildings before I put up my own — that first one on a personal loan, with no construction experience and no mentor.

Then I trusted the wrong people. A business partner disappeared with €150,000 that friends and family had put in. I finished every project and paid every investor back. The way Kalani builds today — an independent construction manager, weekly reports, money released only against a milestone that has actually been reached — comes out of that.

“I paid the price for this knowledge. You benefit from it.”

Build & handover

You watch it go up.
Then you sign it off.

It starts with a 30-minute call. After that no payment is ever released by a date in a calendar — only by a construction milestone that has been reached, and that you could check yourself before you paid for it.

  1. Contract

    10%

    Notarised lease deed. Unit and price are fixed.

  2. Groundworks

    25%

  3. Structure

    30%

  4. Finishing

  5. Handover + 4 weeks

    5%

    Joint inspection, defect list closed, then the last payment.

The site camera — 24/7 access A fixed camera on the plot, and your own access to it around the clock. Look in at any hour from anywhere, live, as often as you like — you never have to wait for someone to send you a picture.
The weekly report Every week, in writing: dated photographs of the site, what was finished since the last report, what is being worked on next, and the independent construction manager’s note on the phase he checked.
10-year structural warranty Ten years on the structure of every villa we build, written into the handover documents. [WHAT IT COVERS, WHAT IT EXCLUDES, HOW A CLAIM IS MADE]

Unit 3 at Solena was handed over this way on 9 September 2026 — signed off against the handover protocol of that day.

Honest Risk Assessment

What can go wrong?

Construction delays

Building in Bali takes longer than in Europe. We plan conservative timelines and tell you about every setback.

Currency fluctuation

Income is in USD and IDR. If you hold euros, the exchange rate moves your real return. We cannot control that.

Occupancy risk

If Bali tourism slows, occupancy drops. We will not guarantee numbers we cannot control.

Legal and title risk

Leasehold in Indonesia carries legal nuance. Independent PPAT notaries, land contracts directly between you and the landowner, and we encourage your own legal advice.

Developer risk

You are trusting us to build what we promise. Independent oversight, live CCTV and weekly reports are there so you can verify instead.

Getting out

Leasehold, with the extension option written in before you buy. Sell on the market and we assist, transfer the lease to family or a company subject to the landowner's agreement, or hold to the end of the term.

Ask Us Directly →
Can I really own a villa in Bali as a foreigner?
+
Yes — leasehold or PT PMA, both legal. You cannot hold freehold land as a foreigner; leasehold gives you use, rental and resale rights for 25–30 years with a secured extension option.
What happens when the lease expires?
+
Your lease includes a contractually secured extension option with pre-agreed terms. You can also sell before expiry — buyers pay per remaining lease year.
Can I customise my villa before it's built?
+
Yes, within the design framework: tile finishes, furniture collections, certain fixtures, and in some cases minor layout changes.
What return should I actually expect?
+
It depends on location, occupancy and nightly rate. We show bear, base and optimistic scenarios in the Investor Handbook and never promise numbers we cannot substantiate. Use the calculator above to model your own assumptions.
What if something goes wrong during construction?
+
Milestone payments mean you only pay the next tranche once the previous stage is verified. You get weekly updates and direct access to me throughout.
