āına Villas combine stylish architecture and modern comfort in perfect harmony with the natural beauty of Lombok. The name āına – Hawaiian for “land” or “earth” – stands for a deep, respectful connection between human and nature. It describes the land that nourishes, protects and is considered a spiritual home – a place to live in harmony with.
Inspired by this philosophy, our villas offer far more than exclusive living space. They create retreats in the midst of nature – and at the same time a valuable investment opportunity. In a region with growing demand for high-quality living space, they combine relaxation and returns – ideal for people who want to live values and invest in the future.
āına Villas is located in one of the most sought-after locations in South Lombok – surrounded by nature and just a few minutes away from the lively center of Kuta. The proximity to beautiful surf beaches, modern co-working spaces and international gastronomy makes this location particularly attractive for travelers, digital nomads and long-term residents. The region is one of the most up-and-coming destinations in Indonesia – a location with high growth potential and attractive yield prospects for investors.
āına Villas is an exclusive boutique villa development in Kuta, Lombok, consisting of four private designer villas. The project is currently in the off-plan phase – construction will begin once funding through investors has been secured. Planned is a tropical, modern oasis in close proximity to restaurants, bars, and co-working spaces – an ideal setting for living, working, and generating rental income.
āına Villas was developed and is operated by the Indonesian company PT PMA Sovantra Studio Lombok. Behind the company is a Swiss family business, founded by father and daughter in 2023, combining Swiss quality thinking with a global perspective and a deep appreciation for the culture of Lombok - implemented together with a creative local team.
āına Villas are built on a total area of 800 m² and have been harmoniously planned around the magnificent coconut palms and banana trees. This well thought-out design creates a lot of privacy for each villa, a tropical ambience and pleasant shade on hot summer days.
The management of all āına Villas is handled by PT Sovantra Studio Lombok. With our extensive network, we ensure a smooth operation and a first-class experience for our guests and owners.
Lombok is benefiting from the Indonesian government's ambitious strategy to increase the number of international tourists from 9 to 20 million annually. A decisive factor is the “Mandalika Lombok” project worth three billion dollars, which is only a few kilometers away and is expected to generate considerable demand for accommodation and land. By improving infrastructure and promoting domestic tourism, Lombok will become a prime tourist destination. The doubling of electricity capacity in 2022 and the successful first international MotoGP event are already evidence of the region's upswing.
One of the most important factors in choosing the right property and hotel investment is the accommodation prices and occupancy rate in the destination. In Lombok, villas often cost between CHF 200 and 300 per night and are around 80% occupied throughout the year as the number of tourists grows and demand outstrips supply. In comparison, this is more difficult to achieve in saturated markets such as Bali or other popular destinations. By investing now, you benefit from an early booking advantage and can achieve higher returns, including a potential increase in the value of the property.
The south of Lombok has a pleasant, tropical climate all year round with temperatures between 23 °C and 31 °C. Due to the trade winds, there is less rainfall here than in the north of the island. The dry season runs from May to October, while the rainy season lasts from November to April, with December being the month with the most rainfall.
In Indonesia, foreigners are not legally allowed to acquire direct ownership of land. Nevertheless, there are attractive alternatives available: One option is to acquire a long-term leasehold contract via the “Hak Sewa” lease option (Leasehold). With a “Hak Sewa” contract, you as a foreign investor receive the exclusive right to use the property for a fixed term of 25 or 35 years. After the contract expires, you can extend it in order to use or sell the property in the long term.
Another option is the acquisition of a “HGB” certificate (Hak Guna Bangunan - right to construct a building). The prerequisite for this is the establishment of an Indonesian company, as this certificate is only available to legal entities based in Indonesia.
We cooperate with renowned experts, including a law firm, a notary's office in Mataram and all relevant state authorities, in order to guarantee you a professional and legally secure transaction.
Mortgages in Indonesia are often difficult to access for foreigners. They usually have short terms (under 5 years) and come with high interest rates, which makes them unattractive to many foreign buyers. Nevertheless, to provide you with flexible financing, āına Villa offers a staggered installment payment over a period of 10 months
Yes, rental income from a villa on Lombok is subject to Indonesian taxation – even for foreign owners. Currently, a final tax of 10% of the gross income applies, which is paid by the local property management company or the person renting out the property themselves. There are also annual property and building taxes (PBB). Further tax obligations may arise depending on the rental structure and type of company. Foreign taxpayers can appoint a local tax representative (NPWP) for this purpose.
For investors domiciled in Switzerland, rental income may also have to be declared in Switzerland. However, the tax already paid in Indonesia can usually be credited under a double taxation agreement. We recommend clarifying individual questions with a tax expert in Switzerland.
