Global Bali Home: The Serenity Villa Developments Near Ubud

Who appears in the public record

Global Bali Home's offering is unusually concentrated: its three published Serenity developments all sit within the Wanayu area in Bedulu, near Ubud. A buyer is not comparing different Bali neighbourhoods within this portfolio. The choice is between villa sizes, levels of privacy and the degree of reliance on shared facilities and rental management.

The company presents itself as an investment and property-development business offering construction, transaction support, rental operations and resale assistance. Those services may simplify the buyer's experience, but the public-facing brand is not proof of which Indonesian entity owns the land, undertakes construction or signs the purchase or lease agreement. That distinction matters before any reservation money changes hands.

What the sources support

The company provides enough project-level information to identify a real commercial offering, and third-party listings corroborate the association between the Serenity developments and Global Bali Home. What remains unverified is more consequential: the registered contracting entity, the title and lease chain for individual plots, independently evidenced handovers and the project-specific permit records.

Commercial sources refer to PT Global Bali Home and describe a PBG building approval for Serenity Estates. We have not independently matched that claim to an official registration or verified the approval's number, scope and applicable buildings. Nor does the material reviewed establish an issued SLF certificate for completed units. A permit mentioned in a listing should not be extrapolated to every phase.

The developer models rental yields of 10–15% and occupancy around 80%, citing an experienced management partner. A separate Serenity Villas sales listing also markets a two-year 12% return commitment. Neither a projection nor a marketing reference to a contractual guarantee establishes what a particular buyer will actually receive. The advertised construction insurance likewise needs its insurer, exclusions, limits and beneficiary checked against the policy itself.

What is known and what to verify

FAQ

Projects and buyer context

The three projects target different uses. Serenity Villas contains 12 private-pool homes with two or three bedrooms, positioned for personal stays and managed holiday rentals. The company's May 2026 material listed indicative prices of roughly IDR 6.03–6.87 billion.

Serenity Estates is the small, land-intensive option: four homes with two to five bedrooms, private pools and plots ranging from approximately 350 to 1,400 square metres. Listed prices span about IDR 5.34–20.49 billion, with Q1 2027 shown as the target handover. The suggestion of around 10% annual appreciation is the developer's forecast, not an independently established return.

Serenity Village serves buyers looking for a smaller footprint. Its 25 one- and two-bedroom units are advertised at approximately 50–84 square metres, with a shared pool and café, starting from about IDR 2.27 billion. The stated delivery window is Q3 2027. For this project, the maintenance budget, common-area rules and actual rental arrangements deserve particular attention.

These are historical asking-price indications from the developer's published catalogue, not live quotations. Availability, inclusions, payment stages, taxes and closing costs must be confirmed for the specific unit and contract.

Wanayu is presented as a connected, nature-led setting in Bedulu, Gianyar, rather than a collection of addresses in central Ubud. The pitch combines villas with waterfalls, paths, dining and wellness facilities. Some of that wider environment forms part of the development vision and should not automatically be assumed operational.

For an owner who expects rental guests, location needs to be assessed from the entrance to the actual villa: access roads, neighbouring construction, travel times during traffic, and which shared amenities exist today. The developer's roughly ten-minute estimate to central Ubud is useful orientation, not a verified journey-time guarantee.

Observable track record

There are three named developments, not three independently verified completed projects. The published plans describe 12 villas at Serenity Villas, four at Serenity Estates and 25 at Serenity Village. Their sum is 41, while the company's homepage advertises 43 villas and its LinkedIn description mentions 42. The sources do not explain the different totals, so they should not be treated as a count of delivered homes.

Serenity Villas is the immediate test of execution. Its official project page still shows a Q2 2026 handover, but sales listings use September or Q3 2026. As of 17 October 2026, the material reviewed does not independently establish that the whole development was handed over or certified fit for occupation. The other two projects have advertised 2027 dates; a target date is not evidence of construction completion.

Global Bali Home identifies Mark Feldman as its founder and managing director and highlights his background in investment banking. That experience may explain the company's financial positioning, but it is not a substitute for a documented list of successfully completed developments, accepted units and satisfied owners.
