Land prices in Bali get confusing fast once they're reduced to a single "price per square meter." A plot in Berawa and a plot in Ungasan may both be quoted per m², but the underlying rates, lease terms and land characteristics behind those numbers can be completely different.
This guide focuses specifically on land-only pricing— undeveloped leasehold land, expressed in IDR per m² per year. Understanding how that figure is built makes it far easier to judge whether a quoted land price is fair for the area.
How Land Price Per Square Meter Works in Bali
Land in Bali is commonly measured in are, with 1 are equal to 100 m². Leasehold land is typically priced per are, per year.
For example:
IDR 20 million/are/year = IDR 200,000/m²/year.
A 300 m² plot at that rate on a 25-year lease would have an indicative total lease cost of:
IDR 200,000 × 300 m² × 25 years = IDR 1.5 billion.
That's the land-only cost — before any building, permits, or development is added.

Bali Home Immo's Canggu to Seseh Land Price Map places prime Pererenan, Berawa, and Batu Bolong land at IDR 40–50 million+ per are/year, while Seseh and Cemagi beachside generally sit in the IDR 20–30 million range.
In the Kuta-Seminyak Land Price Map, Seminyak Beachside sits around IDR 30–40 million/are/year, Kuta, Legian and Kerobokan around IDR 20–30 million, and Seminyak Residential around IDR 10–20 million.
Meanwhile, the 2026 Bukit Peninsula Land Price Map ranges from above IDR 30 million/are/year in prime Bingin and Uluwatu Beach to below IDR 10 million in selected inland parts of Kutuh and Southeast Jimbaran.
These are market estimates, not formal valuations. Plot size, zoning, access, views, and topography can materially change the final price.
Canggu Coast: Land Price Breakdown
The Canggu coast should be understood as an average of surrounding micro-areas, including Berawa, Batu Bolong, Pererenan, Seseh and parts of Cemagi. Each of these locations carries different pricing, but together they form the broader Canggu coastal market— so the benchmark reflects a blended range rather than a single point.
Across the Canggu coastal belt, prime beachfront-adjacent zones such as Berawa, Batu Bolong and Pererenan generally sit around IDR 300,000–500,000+/m²/year, while the outer coastal stretch toward Seseh and Cemagi typically ranges from IDR 200,000–300,000/m²/year.
Kuta–Seminyak: Land Price Breakdown
The Kuta–Seminyak corridor should be read as an average of Seminyak Beachside, Seminyak Residential, Kerobokan, Legian and Kuta, where pricing varies significantly depending on proximity to the beach and tourism core.
Across this combined area, Seminyak Beachside sits around IDR 300,000–400,000/m²/year, while inland Seminyak, Kerobokan, Legian and Kuta generally range from IDR 100,000–300,000/m²/year depending on exact location and zoning.
Bali Home Immo also lists land for sale in Seminyak directly, for buyers looking to compare quoted rates against active plots on the market.
Uluwatu–Ungasan: Land Price Breakdown
The Bukit Peninsula should be understood as an average of Uluwatu Beach, Bingin, Padang Padang, Pecatu, Ungasan, Pandawa and surrounding inland zones, where price differences are driven heavily by ocean proximity and view corridors.
Across this broader Bukit area, prime cliff and beach zones such as Bingin and Uluwatu Beach can exceed IDR 300,000/m²/year, while mid and inland areas such as Pecatu, Ungasan, Balangan and Pandawa generally range from IDR 100,000–250,000/m²/year depending on access and views.
Why Land in the Same Area Can Cost Very Different Amounts
Location is only one part of the equation. Land value changes according to beach proximity, zoning, access, plot shape and views. In the Bukit, Bali Home Immo estimates that a protected ocean view may add up to approximately 25% compared with similar land without one.
Lease duration matters too. Land with 35 years remaining on the lease should not be compared directly against an otherwise similar plot carrying only 15 or 20 years— the annual rate needs to be assessed alongside how much term is actually left.
How to Tell If a Plot Is Expensive
Start by identifying exactly what the quoted price represents:
-
Confirm whether the rate is per m² or per are, and whether it's quoted per year or as a flat lease total.
-
Compare the annual rate per m² against similar plots in the same micro-area, not the district average.
-
Factor in plot characteristics— access, shape, zoning, elevation and views.
-
Weigh the remaining lease duration; a lower annual rate on a short lease isn't automatically cheaper than a higher rate on a long one.
There's no single benchmark price for land per square meter in Bali. A useful comparison isolates the annual rate, the lease term, and the plot's specific characteristics— once those are separated out, price per m² becomes a genuinely useful screening tool rather than a misleading headline number.
