Profile

Marina Bay City offers limited beachfront villa units for sale from USD 89,000 in one of Lombok’s most ambitious master-planned coastal developments — a USD 6 billion project at Pantai Pengantap designed to become a fully self-contained resort city on Lombok’s southern coastline.

Pantai Pengantap sits on the Indian Ocean-facing south coast of Lombok, positioned between the established resort area of Selong Belanak and the Mandalika SEZ. The southern coast is Lombok’s fastest-appreciating coastal corridor: infrastructure investment is accelerating, new road connections are reducing drive times to Lombok International Airport, and the combination of surf beaches, crystal-clear water, and dramatic clifftop scenery is attracting a growing international buyer base that has already pushed villa prices in Selong Belanak up by 40–60% since 2021.

Marina Bay City is structured as a developer-managed investment scheme with projected ROI of up to 46% based on the rental programme. Units start from USD 89,000, placing the entry threshold within reach of investors who have been priced out of equivalent beachfront product in Bali (where comparable villas now start at USD 200,000+). The development includes resort amenities, managed rental services, and title security through an established foreign-buyer legal structure.

For international buyers, beachfront developments of this type in Indonesia are typically acquired via Hak Pakai (right of use) title or through a PT PMA structure that enables foreigners to hold and operate property legally. Both routes are available within the Marina Bay City scheme — verify the specific title and legal structure with the developer and an independent notaris before committing.

Key Findings

Strong macro tailwinds from Lombok (rapid visitor growth, Mandalika spill‑over) support demand, but Pantai Pengantap remains an early-stage, higher-risk micromarket.
Listing price (~US$65.8k) is low versus local comparable project pricing, creating upside for STR returns if the unit can achieve Lombok South ADR/occupancy — but the tenure is leasehold and titles/projects nearby have reported legal/ fraud issues.
Short-term rental economics are feasible but variable: realistic stabilized ADR/occupancy for Pengantap likely sits below premium South Lombok rates; expect strong seasonality (peaks Jul–Aug and event periods) and higher management/marketing costs to reach market-average occupancy.
