Profile
Arif Bungalows is an authentic countryside bungalow retreat in Tetebatu available on a 5-year operational contract — a lower-capital entry point for investors who want to manage and grow an existing hospitality business in East Lombok without committing to a full freehold or long-term leasehold purchase.
The property sits on 10,000m² of land near Tetebatu village, surrounded by rice fields, tropical gardens, and rural walking tracks. It is a short drive from Tetebatu Monkey Forest and Jeruk Manis Waterfall — two of the area’s most visited natural attractions — and already welcomes independent travellers through bookings on major OTA platforms including Booking.com and Airbnb. Guest profile is independent, culture-seeking, and typically stays 2–4 nights: the highest-yield segment in Tetebatu’s market.
With 5 bedrooms, private bathrooms, a garden and terrace, bar, Wi-Fi, and parking, the property is fully equipped to operate from day one. The existing online presence and verified reviews provide immediate booking momentum — you inherit an asset with a track record, not a blank canvas. The 10,000m² land holding allows for modest expansion: additional bungalow units, a small pool, or a yoga deck that could reposition the property in the wellness travel segment.
A 5-year operational contract structure is well-suited to investors who want to test the Tetebatu market, build operational expertise, and establish a guest base before committing to a longer-term land acquisition. It is also a recognised structure under Indonesian hospitality law for foreign-operated businesses.
