Tourism and Construction Growth Shifts to Badung-Tabanan Border
What happened
Building activity is moving west through Pererenan, Seseh, and Cemagi, extending across the border between Badung and Tabanan to Nyanyi and Kedungu. This shift follows the congestion of the traditional tourism corridor, which ran from Kuta through Canggu. The number of villas listed for long-term rentals in Bali increased to over 3,300 as of October 2026, up from about 2,400 in June.

Why it matters
The growth in long-term rentals is driven by visa policies introduced since 2022, which encourage foreign arrivals to sign leases rather than book hotel rooms. While foreign arrivals slipped 1.6 percent in the first eight months of 2026, the expansion of supply is occurring in new areas. Policy could potentially slow this supply growth.
