For thousands of remote workers, Bali isn’t just a backdrop for Zoom calls. It’s become a home base, a creative sanctuary, and a launchpad for living well.
But there’s one big shift you might not have seen coming: remote workers are ditching hotels — and choosing villas instead. And if you’re thinking about investing in Bali property, this shift should have your full attention.
Hotels are designed for short stays and quick turnover. But remote workers? They’re not passing through — they’re staying weeks or months at a time, often returning seasonally or long-term.
Here’s why villas are winning:
A hotel room feels cramped when you're on your third video call of the day. Villas offer space to breathe — private bedrooms, full kitchens, indoor-outdoor lounges, and even dedicated workspaces. It’s the kind of environment that makes a 2-week trip turn into a 2-month stay.
Today’s digital nomads need more than Wi-Fi — they want reliability, comfort, and a setting that supports productivity and relaxation. Akura Villas are designed with this balance in mind:
Whether you’re working in tech or running a business, you need a space that helps you think clearly — and villas deliver that clarity.
Hotels can feel transactional. Villas feel personal. Remote workers want to unpack, cook a proper meal, work from the patio, and take meetings by the pool. That sense of “home away from home” is something hotels just can’t replicate — especially over longer stays.
It’s not just about creature comforts. For investors, this behavioural shift is driving higher occupancy, longer bookings, and better guest satisfaction.
Akura villas, for example, are:
Guests are staying longer, paying more, and rebooking often. That means consistent rental income — and reduced downtime between bookings.
Think of Uluwatu as Bali’s best-kept secret — but not for much longer.
While Canggu gets the buzz, Uluwatu is quietly becoming the top choice for remote workers who want a healthier, slower, more grounded lifestyle. Here's why:
It’s everything remote professionals want — without the burnout.
At Akura, we design our villas with intentionality — not just for short-term guests, but for the kind of people who come to Bali and decide to stay.
The result? Longer bookings. Better reviews. More repeat guests.
The way we live and work has changed — and Bali is leading the shift.
As travellers choose lifestyle-first destinations and seek out comfort, flexibility, and connection, villas have become the gold standard for long-term stays.
If you’re thinking about investing in Bali, ask yourself:
Would you rather own a space that’s booked for 3 nights… or 3 months?
