SEGARA 8 Villa Retreat, South Lombok, Indonesia

Eight private-pool villas in the hills above Selong Belanak

Architectural render. Design is indicative.

A small resort, not a row of villas

Segara is an old word for the sea in Indonesia, the same word that names Segara Anak, the crater lake high on Mount Rinjani. SEGARA 8 is our tribute to Lombok's south coast: eight villas, each with its own plunge pool and garden, gathered around a bamboo restaurant, a communal ice pool, a gym and a sauna.

The architecture is modern tropical, built from local stone, timber and bamboo. Tall timber gables, deep shade and sliding glass open every villa onto its own pool. Interiors are calm and natural, made for long stays.

The retreat is developed by Betttech Global Ventures and designed and built with CV. Ausindo Nusa Konstruksi, a Lombok contractor whose team has delivered villas and resorts across Lombok and Bali.

Selong Belanak and the south coast

Selong Belanak is a sweeping white-sand bay between green hills on Lombok's quiet south coast, known for gentle, rolling surf.

SEGARA 8 sits in the hills above the bay at Tomang Omang, about 2 km inland, where the plot rises 62 to 66 m above sea level. Kuta and the Mandalika resort zone are a short drive east.

How ownership works

Foreign buyers can't hold freehold land in Indonesia. SEGARA 8 gives overseas investors a clear route instead: one villa, one share class, without setting up a company of your own.

  1. Subscribe

    Choose a villa and subscribe for its own share class in BGV's Indonesian PT PMA.

  2. Build

    The PT PMA holds the land title. Ausindo builds to the costed plans, with progress updates throughout.

  3. Operate

    BGV's Indonesian management team lets, services and maintains your villa.

  4. Receive income

    Net rental income from your villa is paid to you each quarter, in proportion to your holding.

What that means for you

  • Your villa, not a pool. Income and costs are tied to your villa's share class.
  • Stay when you like. Use your villa yourself, subject to booking availability.
  • A route to exit. Shares are transferable, and BGV can help find a new investor.
  • Fully managed. Bookings, housekeeping, maintenance and guest services are handled for you.

Safeguards in the structure

  • Certified land title. SHGB title held by BGV's PT PMA, with each villa plot mapped to its share class.
  • Contractor-priced budget. Two detailed cost plans from Ausindo, priced line by line.
  • A funded first year. Staffing and operating reserves held from opening.
  • Quarterly reporting. Financial and operational statements every quarter.
  • Proper legal framework. International counsel for UK and UAE documents; Lombok counsel for land, PMA and notarisation.

The investor pack

Villa allocations, the full budget, running costs, the delivery programme and draft legal documents are in the SEGARA 8 Investor Information Pack. We share it with prospective investors on request.

Questions investors ask

Anything else, ask us directly.

Who owns and develops SEGARA 8?

SEGARA 8 is developed by Betttech Global Ventures (BGV), operating through an Indonesian PT PMA that holds the project's land interest. BGV has entities in the UK and Indonesia, with a further entity planned in the UAE to support international investors.

Can foreigners own land in Indonesia?

Foreigners cannot hold freehold (Hak Milik) title directly. SEGARA 8 offers a defined share structure in the company that owns and operates the development, giving you an economic and contractual interest in your specific villa without setting up and capitalising your own PT PMA.

What do I actually invest in?

You subscribe for a class of shares linked to one specific villa. Each villa has its own share class, so your investment is tied to that villa, not pooled across the whole project.

Does each villa have its own plot?

Each villa's plot is separately identified and mapped to its share class under the project's PT PMA land title (Hak Guna Bangunan), which follows Indonesia's standard PMA capital and reporting requirements.

Who manages and lets the villas?

BGV's Indonesian management entity handles bookings, housekeeping, maintenance and guest services, and reports rental performance to investors every quarter.

How is rental income paid?

Net rental income, after operating costs and the management fee, is paid directly to you each quarter in proportion to your holding in your villa's share class.

Are there costs beyond the investment?

Your villa's day-to-day running costs are deducted from its rental income before distribution. Shared estate costs, such as security and common infrastructure, are budgeted each year and shared pro rata among investors.

Can I sell my investment later?

Yes. Your shareholding is transferable to third parties, subject to standard consent procedures, and you may request redemption of the company's interest in your villa. BGV can help find a new investor when you wish to exit.

What agreements would I sign?

A subscription agreement and a shareholders' agreement covering your share class, plus an estate covenant that sets standards for build quality, shared facilities and conduct across the development.

Who handles the legal and tax side?

UK and UAE contractual documents are prepared with international counsel. Indonesian land certification, PMA compliance and notarisation are handled by Lombok-based counsel. We encourage every investor to take independent tax advice in their home country.

How long until my villa is open to guests?

Construction is planned to complete within 12 to 18 months of full subscription, managed with Ausindo's on-site team, with progress updates throughout the build.

Can I visit the site?

Yes. We arrange site visits and design reviews in Selong Belanak for prospective investors. Ask about a visit.
