Thanks Rory and Casey, I really enjoyed your Bali build videos, to the point that I already look for land myself right now. Do you mind sharing how big is your block?
Hi Rory, when do you think we are going to see the finished villa? Can't wait. Also can you tell me how you sourced the furniture for the villa? Cheers Artur
Hey mate. I’m currently standing in the villa watching the workers doing the finishing touches on paint while I’m unwrapping furniture and cleaning cupboards etc so it won’t be far away! I’ll give an update on everything like furniture etc at the same time. Hopefully sometime next week if it all goes to plan! We’ve had some glass supply issues which has delayed everything.
We used Bali Creative Development. I'll be releasing a guide in the coming weeks with all the contractors and suppliers we have used through the entire process.
There will be an update coming in about 6 weeks! It's due to be completed in July. I've had updates in the meantime but I'd rather just give all the information at once as I want to be able to recommend different contractors but until I've actually seen the end result I don't want to put it out there.
It does change all the time so when it comes time for you definitely check with your lawyer! For us Yellow or Orange zones are ok to build an Airbnb. Green zone is for agriculture and therefore you can’t get an Airbnb permit. There are definitely airbnbs within green zones but my guess is they are operating without proper permits.
This looks awesome and making me excited to start mine next month! I'm building a similar villa (200sq meters total but 120 sq meters building (Loft style) The audio for the video was going in and out. Is it just me?
That's awesome! Good luck with the villa! Yeah I was wearing a wireless mic and everytime I turned away from it it got a little quiet. That's my fault for not realising at the time 😂
I was thinking of making one in the next week or so! I haven't been back across but I've been collecting photos and videos as they come through so I'll have something to show
We are in the Bingin area. It’s entirely likely we’ll be in Australia when you are in Bali as we plan for this to be an investment most of the time but feel free to shoot us a message on Insta or facey (just look up Rory and Casey) and if we’re around awesome but if not happy to help with any questions!
Hey Rory. I live in Bali part time and travel the world the remaining time. Congrats on your villa. That island is quite special. Getting crowded there! I usually stay in Pererenan. I have an episode on my channel where I spent 24 hours as a construction worker in Bali building a villa! Fun adventure. I also film for a few charities in Indonesia. I found your channel because I just picked up the S5ii & saw your setup video. Very helpful. Buckets of gratitude. New subscriber here. -TED
That's awesome mate. I just watched it! Those Bali construction guys work hard hey? Awesome about filming for charities too. If were ever in Bali at the same time should catch up. I'm keen to do the same thing and some documentary work once we are spending our winters there. Glad the S5ii vids helped too. It's an awesome camera. Two weddings with it so far and I'm very impressed. Still some quirks to figure out but overall a good improvement over the original s5
There will be! We’re heading over in 2 weeks so we’ll make an update when we’re there. There’s been plenty to update on but I wanted to hold off until it was finished
Hey guys! I’m currently in Bali at the moment and have been doing a bunch of investigation into our own build in Uluwatu/Bingin area. We’ve spoken to a few builders, land owners and others who are currently building. I was wondering if maybe your available for a zoom meeting. Would love to ask some questions 😊
Hey! I don't really do zoom meetings, I get a lot of requests for contact but I don't have the time to do face to face unfortunately, But if you'd like to shoot through any questions you have to the villas Instagram account @villa.raava.bali I'd be happy to get back to you when I have time 😊
Hey Rory and Casey! Thank you so much for your content, it helps a lot. We are in the beginning of our journey to build two one bedroom villas and we were thinking Bingin as well. As I know the area very well at this point, I easily found yours. Couple days ago we stopped by to check if everything is ok and the construction is ongoing:) I would really like to talk to you about your experience with the developer and the land as I have questions nobody seems to know the answer to or unwilling to give them, maybe even meet if you have time! Also if you want to check anything that is going on there you can ask me and I can send you videos or what not as I am 15 minute drive from the place till Monday
Hey Ann! Always happy to help! We are in Aus at the moment but if you wanted to shoot me through a message to the villas Instagram page @villa.raava.bali I'm happy to answer any questions you might have! It's definitely something that for some reason people hold their cards close to their chest or just completely don't understand the laws. I'm not an expert on everything but I've spent months researching for ourselves so happy to share that knowledge! And if you do happen to be in the area again photos/video of the villa would be amazing! We haven't seen an update for a few weeks because of Ramadan so it'd be amazing to see where they are up to.
@@RoryandCasey Done! Have a drone footage and an inside tour) Gonna send you it to you tomorrow, I have an empty Instagram account as I don't use social media so don't freak out :D
@@annrozhets6562 Oh I actually had a thought Ann, instagram might not let me download, if you wanted to shoot me an insta message I'll send you my whatsapp, will be easier for me to answer any questions you have too!
@@RoryandCasey I am trying to do it now. Sorry I didn't do it yesterday, came back from Ubud at 12:30 a.m. and fell asleep right away:) I am gonna shoot you now
Just watched your vid. Hmmm one thing many people don't realise is that you actually need a kitas to be able to lease land legally in Indonesia. Not having a kitas actually gives the government of Indonesia the power to take your land. I suggest a simple google search lol maybe something u missed. You can lease a villa without a kitas but not land.
Unless the laws are changed in the last 12 months then you absolutely don't need a Kitas. We had independent legal advise from our lawyer in Denpasar which backs this up. But as always seek legal advice to be sure.
How exciting, this is amazing 👏
Thanks!
Looking good mate like laundry and big kitchen been looking myself and that’s not usual for Bali 👍
Absolutely. We want to live in it one day so we basically built it as though it would be our home
The villa looks amazing. Can’t wait to see the finished product guys. 😀🏡
Us too! It's going to be beautiful when it's done.

@@RoryandCasey Awesome, Thanks
Hi Rory. Which developer are you using and did you live in Bali during construction?
We used Bali Creative Development. I'll be releasing a guide in the coming weeks with all the contractors and suppliers we have used through the entire process.
That is so cool!
Thanks man
Hey mate, great videos , can I ask do u no what build cost is per m2 on average in bali
Awesome video! I would love to invest over there. Any updates?
There will be an update coming in about 6 weeks! It's due to be completed in July. I've had updates in the meantime but I'd rather just give all the information at once as I want to be able to recommend different contractors but until I've actually seen the end result I don't want to put it out there.
Epic. We will be over in may for 3 months. Would love to check it out as it’s an interest of ours to do something similar in next few years.
Get in touch when you're over and I'll let you know whether we're around!
@@RoryandCasey sounds good, keep up the videos, we have been watching them all. 🙌🏼
Rory this is such a beautiful vision. I want to retire my mom to Bali and was wondering what company you used to build and do the land survey etc?
We used Bali Creative Development. They took care of all the land survey for us too
If you plan to use the villa as airbnb what zoning of land will give you the right to use it as airbnb? Thank you and GOOD LUCK!!

Hows the villa looking now? Would love an update!

How's going now?
@@RoryandCasey
How big is your block of land in sq mtrs ?
It’s 300sqm which is quite big for a 2 bedroom villa in Bali.
Awesome, where is this ? We will be in Bali this summer 2023, we would love to visit and pick you guys brain (not literally 😁 ) if that's ok
We are in the Bingin area.

can you advice size of the land and toral area of villa in sq meters thank you
Our land is 300sqm and the building size is roughly 115sqm but it also has a second story so the useable living space is more like 160sqm
Is there an update coming on this?
There will be! We’re heading over in 2 weeks so we’ll make an update when we’re there. There’s been plenty to update on but I wanted to hold off until it was finished

In it right now as they make the finishing touches. Hoping to put a new video out next week with the finished product.
