Seseh is the beachside village on Bali's south-west coast, one bay north of Pererenan and about fifteen minutes from Canggu, and it is quietly becoming one of the best places on the island for a long-term rental. For a six to twelve month stay you have two routes: a private villa through a long-term rental agency, or a purpose-built long-stay residence. Core Villas is building the second kind right in Seseh, opening from Q3 2027, with a waitlist open now.
Why Seseh for a long stay
Seseh trades the crowds of Canggu for black-sand beaches, rice terraces and village calm, while staying close enough to use Canggu's cafes, gyms and international schools on a daily school run. From Core Villas, Seseh, Munggu, Bali, the beach is a few minutes away, Pererenan about seven, Canggu about fifteen, and Ngurah Rai airport roughly an hour and a half.
It is still early here, which is the appeal. The national press has called the Munggu and Seseh stretch Bali's next hot spot, and interest in the area has risen steadily for five years, but growth so far is a handful of considered projects among the fields rather than a wall along the beach road.
What long-term rentals in Seseh look like
Most long-term stock in Seseh is private villas offered on monthly or yearly leases through Bali's long-term rental agencies. Monthly rates suit a trial or a single season; yearly leases are cheaper per month but usually ask for a large share of the year upfront. Two and three bedroom pool villas are the common shapes, furnished, with the beach and Pererenan's cafes within a few minutes.
The alternative is a managed long-stay residence: a purpose-built community where maintenance, pool and garden care are handled and utilities are metered to your use, so the advertised figure and the lived figure stay close. That is the model Core Villas is bringing to Seseh.
Core Villas: long-stay residences in Seseh
Core Villas is a boutique neighbourhood of private pool villas at Seseh, built low and quiet, designed for full-time living and mid to long-term stays rather than nightly holiday lets. Two, three and four bedroom homes, fully furnished, with on-site management.
The residences open from Q3 2027 and the waitlist is open now. Joining it is how you secure a long-term home in Seseh before the area's limited supply is spoken for, and it costs nothing to hold your place.
