Tukad Batanghari II.
Prices and facts checked in October 2026.
Why Renon for a longer stay
Renon is the calm side of Denpasar: a city neighbourhood rather than a resort area, with everyday needs within walking distance. It suits people who work in Denpasar or online, and anyone who wants a quiet base between the city and the beach.
What you can rent for a month or more
- Serviced apartments and lofts: furnished, with cleaning and Wi‑Fi included, so you can move in with a suitcase. This is what Sora Residence Renon offers.
- Kost (boarding rooms): common in Denpasar and usually the lowest rent. Rooms are simpler, often with shared facilities, and what the rent includes varies.
- Houses and villas: more space, often with a garden. Terms vary a lot, so ask who pays for electricity, water, internet, cleaning and repairs, and how many months you pay in advance.
- Hotels and guesthouses: some offer monthly rates, but a hotel room often has no kitchen.
What to check before you sign
- What the rent includes: tax, cleaning, linen, Wi‑Fi, water and electricity are handled differently from one place to the next.
- Electricity: ask how it is charged, by prepaid token or by a meter read each month, and at what rate. Air conditioning is usually the biggest part of the bill.
- Deposit and advance payment: ask how much you pay before you move in, and whether a long contract means paying many months in advance.
- The contract: check that you can start with one month, and ask for a written agreement in a language you read.
- Internet speed: important if you work online.
- Stairs or a lift: many low-rise buildings in Denpasar have no lift.
- A viewing: see the room in person or by video before you pay.
