OceaniQ Nusa Penida

OceaniQ Nusa Penida is an 18-unit boutique residential project developed by OceaniQ Eco Concept on the island of Nusa Penida, positioned within the Benoa area and scheduled for completion by June 2028.

# Two Buildings on an Island Still Finding Its Footing

Nusa Penida sits off the southeastern coast of Bali, separated from the mainland by a short boat crossing. The island has built a reputation on geography: limestone cliffs dropping to turquoise water, beaches such as Kelingking and Diamond that draw visitors from across Asia and beyond. Infrastructure is arriving gradually, with roads, hospitality venues and residential projects extending across the island without yet erasing its relatively unbuilt character.

OceaniQ Nusa Penida occupies this moment deliberately. The project comprises two buildings and 18 residences in total, a scale that keeps the development firmly in boutique territory. Architecture follows a resort-residential logic, pairing contemporary structure with the surrounding landscape rather than competing with it. Exact building heights and floor counts are not specified in available documentation, but the unit count alone signals that density is not part of the proposition here.

# Residences Ranging from Compact Studios to Substantial Villas

Sizes run from approximately 248 square feet to just over 4,173 square feet, a spread that accommodates entry-level investment units at one end and full villa-scale residences at the other. Pricing reflects the same range: from around AED 988,000 to AED 14 million at current list prices.

Interiors are specified to a consistent standard throughout. Furniture follows the design language associated with Minotti, custom-proportioned for each space. Sanitary ware is by Kohler in a graphite finish. Outdoor pieces come from Goodwood, solid natural wood adapted for tropical humidity and sun exposure. Bedrooms carry king-size beds fitted with orthopedic AirSpring mattresses and linen by Indolinen.

Kitchens and living areas are fully equipped. Appliances draw from Modena, Electrolux, Häfele, Samsung, Xiaomi and Nespresso. The home automation layer runs on an Aqara system integrated with Apple HomeKit, covering lighting, climate and security from a single interface.

# A Resort Atmosphere Built Into the Brief

The project is conceived to serve both permanent residents and short-stay guests, with a layout and specification oriented toward the rental market as much as owner-occupation. Shared parking is confirmed. Beyond this, specific amenity lists have not been published at the time of writing, so the resort-style positioning reflected in the developer's brief is taken as a design intention rather than a confirmed facility inventory.

# Location, Access and the Bali Proximity Factor

Nusa Penida's connection to Bali is by fast boat, typically around 30 to 45 minutes from Sanur or Padang Bai depending on conditions. The island's main draw for buyers is precisely this proximity to Bali's international infrastructure, including Ngurah Rai International Airport, while remaining distinct from Bali's more developed southern coast.

The Benoa area within Nusa Penida provides positioning on the island, though road access and local infrastructure remain in development. The island is home to active dive sites, including manta ray encounters, and the natural landmarks that have made it one of Indonesia's more recognisable island destinations over the past decade.

# What OceaniQ Represents for International Buyers Considering Indonesia

For buyers familiar with Dubai or Southeast Asian resort property, OceaniQ Nusa Penida occupies a recognisable category: a small-count, specification-led development in a location where tourism is growing but supply of quality residential stock remains limited. The unit count of 18 across two buildings limits resale competition from within the same project.

The price floor near AED 988,000 positions it within reach of investors allocating a secondary or tertiary portion of a portfolio to leisure-market real estate. The upper end, at AED 14 million, addresses buyers seeking a primary retreat with meaningful indoor-outdoor space. Completion in mid-2028 places it on a timeline consistent with current off-plan norms in high-growth tropical markets.
