$0.20per sq ft, what we paid

Why is it so affordable?
How is this possible?

Because we got this land in a very good deal, at about $0.20 per square foot of beachfront. That is the whole answer.

They live in Sumba and build the estate. If you fly out, they are the ones who show you around.

The island

One hour from Bali.
Two from Australia.

Two airports. Empty beaches, rice terraces, cliffs, waterfalls, stone temples and villages that have been lived in for centuries. A savannah coast that looks nothing like the rest of Indonesia.

Sumba, about an hour from Bali

Everyone says they would have bought in Bali before Bali happened. This is that island, one hour away by plane. The estate holds about two kilometres of its northern coast.

1 hour from BaliDaily direct flights, then about 90 minutes by road to the estate.
2 hours from AustraliaDarwin and the northern coast are a short hop away.
2 airportsTambolaka in the west and Waingapu in the east.
Beaches, cliffs, waterfallsRice terraces, stone villages, wild horses and dry savannah.
Facing KomodoKomodo National Park sits across the water to the north.
2 km of coastlineThe estate holds roughly two kilometres of the northern shore.
Ranked number one on CNN Travelโ€™s list of the best places to go in 2024. Out of 24 destinations worldwide, Sumba was placed first.

And these are the people writing about it.

Build unlocks

Every square foot is yours from day one.

From the first claim the land is held in your name until 2100. What changes with size is what you may build.

Your space is assigned

Held in your name until 2100. Your name or your company link goes on the map and on the ranking. You can stand on it, mark it and plant on it.

Building is optional and always separate. It is done with an approved contractor; ours is Amoda, the largest prefabricated-home factory in Indonesia, and you may propose your own. You pay the builder directly, in stages, against work completed. Below 3,000 sq ft the land is still yours until 2100, but you cannot build or sleep on it. Full detail in the rules →
How it works

Your place is fixed the day you claim.
The contract is signed when the ranking closes.

01

You claim

One dollar, one square foot, from $2. Your total decides your position, confirmed in writing the same day. Claiming again with the same email adds to the same total.

02

The clock runs

It closes on whichever comes first: every square foot claimed, ten days with no new claim, or 31 December 2026.

03

Plots are assigned

The ranking freezes and everybody gets a located plot. The ten largest claims take the beachfront, then the second line, then inland.

04

The final contract

A leasehold to 2100 with PT Eco Beach City, with the plot number and coordinates in it. Same text for everybody. Read it before you pay →

Questions

Eight questions, eight short answers.

What do I actually get?

Square feet of real land in Sumba, held in your name until 2100 by leasehold contract with our Indonesian company. Not freehold, because Indonesia does not allow it for foreigners.

The right is built the way Indonesian land rights are built: an initial 30 years, extended by 20, then renewed for a further 30. The detail is in the legal page.

Why is it so affordable? How is this possible?

Because we got this land in a very good deal, at about $0.20 per square foot of beachfront. That is what lets us hand it out at a dollar.

How do I know this is not a scam?

You do not. That is why the title, the company numbers and my name and face are on this page. Fly to Sumba, stay on the estate, then decide.

When do I get my contract?

Your square feet and your position are recorded the same day you pay. The leasehold itself is signed when the ranking closes, because that is when plots are allocated.

Can somebody take what I claimed?

No. Rank only decides who picks a plot first. It never moves anyone already placed, whatever anybody claims after you.

Can I build on it?

A cabin from 3,000 sq ft, a villa from 11,000 sq ft, with an approved contractor. Optional, paid separately to the builder, never bundled into your claim.

Are there ongoing costs?

None while the plot is bare. Once you build, $95 a month for upkeep and facilities. If you sell, we handle the transfer and charge 10% of the sale price.

When does the ranking close?

On whichever comes first: all 18,000,000 square feet claimed, ten days without a single new claim, or 31 December 2026. Any new claim restarts the ten days.

Everything else is written out in the rules, the legal terms and the contract, all published before you pay.
