Kajima and Accor Announce Raffles Residences Bali


Accor and Kajima Development Pte Ltd has announced the debut of Raffles Residences Bali, an exclusive lineup of 28 ultra-luxury homes launching in multiple phases, located within the 13-acre private estate adjacent to Raffles Bali in Jimbaran. A limited number of residences will be released in Q2 2026. A private preview website is now live; qualified buyers may register for first access to floorplans and invitation-only showings.

Situated on a forested headland with sweeping views of mountains and the Indian Ocean, the development is accessed via a private road. Each branded residence is positioned for privacy yet remains moments from Raffles Bali’s facilities—an offering reserved for a small number of buyers who value craftsmanship, exclusivity, and a freestanding residence in one of Bali’s most protected enclaves.

Developed by PT Jimbaran Greenhill—led by Kajima Development Pte Ltd in partnership with PT Jimbaran Hijau—the residences will be managed by Raffles Hotels & Resorts. Launching in Q2 2026, the homes featuring three- to five-bedroom layouts start from 5,403 square feet of interior space and offer ocean, cliff, or combined cliff-and-ocean views.

Discerning buyers are increasingly seeking fully serviced homes that blend investment security with effortless living. Branded residences offer peace of mind, professional maintenance, and strong resale value—a combination that has accelerated demand on the island’s most exclusive coastlines. The new residences augment Accor’s leadership positioning in the branded residences sector, with over 50 branded residence communities now in operation across more than 25 hospitality brands globally, and further strengthen the group’s regional luxury pipeline, adding a flagship project in one of Asia’s highest-demand leisure markets.

Conceived by Colorado-based James Hyatt Studio, the master plan harmonizes the natural terrain with expansive ocean views. Here, topography is defined by Jimbaran Bay to the north and a lush valley to the west. Each residence is thoughtfully positioned to respond to the unique character of its setting while maximizing ocean views.

The design of the residences, led by Kajima together with Singapore- and Bali-based Area Designs, features open yet intimate spaces. Natural light and prevailing breezes are thoughtfully embraced, while careful consideration of privacy between the residences ensures comfort and seclusion. Provisions include living and dining spaces expanding seamlessly from indoors to outdoors, infinity-edge pools spanning 50–65 feet in length, and large outdoor areas with shaded pavilions.

The legacy of the late Dr. Shoichi Kajima—who designed and owned his residence at The Batujimbar, a landmark estate for tropical modernism—quietly flows throughout every element of the design. The overall effect, achieved only through a rigorous design process, ensures the architecture has a timeless quality that exudes sophistication and a feeling of being deeply rooted in place.

“With Raffles Residences Bali, we sought to create something that could only exist on this site—a site that carries the rare topographical condition of the ocean and mountain coexisting, echoing the character of Jimbaran and Ubud. The special connection between the ocean and the mountain is deeply valued in traditional Balinese cosmology and it was here that Dr. Kajima identified as a special place to witness the sunset, just as his Sanur villa was ideal to experience sunrise. When these residences are complete so will the vision to experience the best of Bali’s wonders from dawn to dusk,” said Shuichi Oishi, CEO of Kajima Development Pte Ltd.

Each villa features dual kitchens outfitted with state-of-the-art appliances, while custom furniture pieces envisioned by the interior design groups—HBA Resort (Bali), AEDI Design Bureau, and BLINK Design Group—anchor the living spaces with warmth and tactility. Ideal for multi-generational living, flexible rooms can function as wellness studios, studies, nurseries or additional suites, and can be fitted with gym and related health enhancement equipment. Bathrooms feature freestanding soaking tubs and outdoor rain showers.

Residents enjoy priority access to all facilities at Raffles Bali, including Rumari—one of Southeast Asia’s most acclaimed dining destinations—along with the resort’s infinity pool, beachfront, spa, bar, and curated wellness experiences.

Every residence is supported by the Raffles Residence Butlers, a team skilled in providing highly personalized service and managing every detail of daily living. From housekeeping, landscaping, and maintenance, to arranging a private dinner with the resort chef, chartering a yacht, or curating cultural excursions across Bali, every owner’s butler is the single point of contact that ensures the residence always feels prepared and personal—whether the owner is in residence or arriving after months away.

The residences are Green Globe-certified, reflecting a commitment to responsible development and long-term environmental stewardship. From design to construction, every decision prioritized low impact: building footprints were shaped around existing trees rather than clearing them; native plant species were preserved and reintegrated into landscaping; and energy-saving and sensor-controlled cooling systems were integrated throughout.

Located a 20-minute drive from Denpasar International Airport, the residences are moments from Jimbaran and Balangan Beaches. Other nearby attractions include the Nusa Dua resort and Uluwatu Temple. To escape the traffic to Ubud, Uluwatu and access neighboring islands, a heliport is integrated within the resort; bookings are available via the butler service.

Raffles Residences Bali is supported by Accor One Living, a platform that offers a 360-degree approach to the development, design, and operation of mixed-use projects and branded residential communities. Through Accor One Living, owners, guests and partners are connected to Accor’s diverse ecosystem of brands, expertise and solutions, creating a continuous flow of new opportunities to live, work, and enjoy.
