In today’s rapidly changing world, more and more families are looking for ways to increase their income and ensure a more secure future for their loved ones. An increasingly popular way to do this is by investing in real estate outside of Estonia.
Among the various options, Bali stands out—a tropical island in Indonesia where owning real estate can mean much more than just a vacation spot. By acting wisely, it is possible to turn Bali real estate into a stable source of income
Monthly passive income really comes in handy!
Rising inflation, housing costs, and interest rates in Europe have prompted Estonians to seek various ways to increase their income. Fortunately, the solution is not hard to find—real estate in Bali offers the opportunity to earn a stable income, even if you don’t wish to live there permanently.
Short-term rentals of a villa or apartment in Bali through Airbnb generate significant passive income. The average daily rental rate depends on the location; for example, in Canggu, it can range from €150 to €250. Many families therefore consciously invest in real estate because rental income helps cover expenses related to children, monthly bills or provides more flexibility in their work schedule.
Bali real estate – Your second home in the tropics
By investing in Bali, you’ll gain access to a luxurious villa that generates a stable income through short-term rentals. But why not use it yourself as well—for example, for a relaxing family vacation or as a second home during the cold winter months?
Bali can be considered a thoroughly family-friendly destination thanks to its safety and peaceful lifestyle. Areas popular among tourists, such as Ubud and Canggu, are also perfectly suited for families—they offer good infrastructure, international schools, and healthcare services.
Educational opportunities in Bali
If you plan to stay in Bali with your family for an extended period, it’s worth thinking about your children’s education early on. There are several international schools on the island, including the innovative Green School, which is known for its eco-friendly approach.

The schools feature small class sizes and a supportive community that fosters individual development. Since tuition can be high and admission is highly competitive, it’s worth starting to plan early. There are also several preschools available for younger children. Although the selection isn’t as wide as back home, Bali still offers a quality education with special added value—field trips to coral reefs or volcanoes, and much more.
Healthcare in Bali
If you plan to stay in Bali with your family for an extended period, it’s worth considering situations where you might need medical assistance. The island has several private hospitals and clinics, particularly in Denpasar and South Bali, where English-speaking staff are available. Facilities such as BIMC and Siloam can handle most everyday health needs. For more complex cases, patients are often transferred to Singapore or Australia.
Routine medical care is readily available. In addition, both mental and physical health are supported by Bali’s healthy lifestyle—the island is teeming with organic markets and yoga studios. There are also plenty of opportunities for active leisure activities that support family well-being.
Inheriting real estate in Bali
A villa in Bali is a long-term family asset whose value appreciates over time. Real estate is something that can be passed down to future generations—it is not merely an investment, but a legacy that provides security for the entire family.
A properly executed transaction and professional legal advice ensure that, even as a foreign investor, bequeathing the villa is feasible and secure. For example, properly executed leasehold agreements can be valid for up to 30+30 years and can be legally bequeathed or resold.
