Land for Sale Leasehold in Other Indonesian Islands

Leasehold Land beyond Bali, from the Gili Islands to Rote

Bali Home Immo’s leasehold land listings beyond Bali take in Lombok, the Gili Islands, Sumbawa, Flores, Sumba, and Rote. Each plot is offered on a Hak Sewa basis, the right to use the land for an agreed term under a notarial lease, while the landowner keeps the title. Plots are measured in are, where one are equals 100 square metres. Bali Home Immo has listed property across Indonesia since 2009. With 2+ listings, AREBI-certified agents, and a team working in English, French, and Indonesian, we guide each search from the first brief to the signing of the lease.

Surf Bays, Island Ferries, and Volcano Trails from Lombok to Rote

Lombok lies across the strait from Bali. Its south coast around Kuta Lombok is known for surf breaks and horseshoe bays, while Senaru in the north is a base for treks up Mount Rinjani. Off the northwest coast, the three Gili Islands (Trawangan, Meno, and Air) are known for white sand beaches and coral reefs. Motorised vehicles are banned there, so people move by bicycle, horse-drawn cart, or on foot. East of Lombok, Sumbawa is about three times the size of its neighbour and rises to Mount Tambora, with surf breaks along its west coast. Flores begins at Labuan Bajo, the gateway to Komodo National Park, and Sumba is known for the Pasola festival. Rote lies off the southern tip of Timor, about two hours by ferry from Kupang, and is known for the reef breaks of Nemberala.

Two Provinces, One Check: Who Holds the Land before You Lease

These islands fall under two provinces. Lombok, the Gili Islands, and Sumbawa belong to West Nusa Tenggara, while Flores, Sumba, and Rote belong to East Nusa Tenggara. Each regency keeps its own spatial plan and land office records, and the same first question applies on every island: who holds the land, and may the holder lease it?

Land falls into two groups. Some plots belong to private owners. Others sit inside tourism areas run by an authority, as around Labuan Bajo, where the Labuan Bajo Flores Authority Agency (BPOLBF) holds a management right, Hak Pengelolaan, over the land assigned to it and may lease that land or cooperate with third parties.

A licensed notary confirms the holder before the lease deed is drawn up, and the deed then records the permitted use, the term, and the right to extend it. Our guide to leasehold and freehold explains what a Hak Sewa gives, and our lease extension guide shows how an extension is agreed.

What Sets Leasehold Land Prices Apart across the Islands

Leasehold land is quoted per are, which lets plots of different sizes be compared on the same footing. Each island has its own price level, so a plot is read against its own island and its own coast. Position decides first: a plot with sea frontage, a plot with a bay view, and a plot set back from the water are read against different benchmarks. Road access counts next. The shape of the plot, the zone colour, and the state of the site, whether it is cleared and ready or still overgrown, all enter the price. Distance to the airport, the harbour, or the ferry is another point buyers weigh. Our agents can share current per-are prices for each island.
