Lombok, with its stunning beaches, lush landscapes, and booming tourism industry, is more than just a vacation destination — It’s a smart investment opportunity. Imagine owning a property that serves as your personal retreat but also generates passive income while you're away. Here’s how you can turn your dream holiday home into a profitable asset.

STEP 1: SET UP A PT PMA (Foreign Investment Company)

For foreign investors, the first step to legally owning property in Lombok is establishing a PT PMA (Perseroan Terbatas Penanaman Modal Asing). This 100% foreign-owned company structure ensures compliance with Indonesian law while providing full ownership rights over land and property.

STEP 2: FIND THE PERFECT LAND

With your PT PMA set up, the next step is securing the right plot of land. Lombok offers prime locations, from beachfront villas to hillside retreats with panoramic views. Choosing wisely is key to investment success, and that’s where Selaras Lombok’s expertise makes a difference.

Our team helps you assess:

  • Proximity to key tourist areas.
  • Infrastructure and accessibility (roads, utilities, future development plans).
  • Zoning regulations to ensure your land is suitable for building.
  • Long-term appreciation potential for a strong return on investment.

STEP 3: BUILD YOUR DREAM PROPERTY

Now comes the exciting part — bringing your vision to life! Whether you’re building a luxury villa, boutique resort, or a cozy vacation home, working with experienced architects and contractors is crucial. With the right team, your property can be completed on time, within budget, and fully compliant with Indonesian laws.

STEP 4: RENT IT OUT & GENERATE INCOME

Lombok’ tourism is booming, driving high demand for short-term rentals. Listing your property on platforms like Airbnb and Booking.com can generate consistent rental income year-round.

To maximize occupancy, consider:

  • Professional property management for hassle-free hosting.
  • Smart pricing strategies to stay competitive in peak and low seasons.
  • Marketing across multiple channels to attract global travelers.

A well-managed rental property can deliver an 10–20% annual return on investment (ROI) — far exceeding traditional real estate markets.

STEP 5: ENJOY PASSIVE INCOME & LONG-TIME RETURNS

With the right property and professional management in place, your Lombok investment can provide you with a steady stream of passive income. Whether you rent out your property seasonally or for long-term stays, you’ll benefit from Lombok's thriving tourism industry.

TURN YOUR INVESTMENT VISION INTO REALITY

With the right strategy, owning property in Lombok isn’t just a dream — it’s a profitable opportunity. Whether you’re looking for a personal retreat, a rental income stream, or a long-term asset, the right guidance can make all the difference.
