Island Dream Collective handles everything — listings, guests, cleaning, maintenance — so your Bali villa generates income without consuming your life. We're based between Brisbane and Bali, so we understand both the investor mindset and what it takes to run a property well on the ground.
From getting your villa listed and photographed to handling 2am guest messages — we take it off your plate.
Photography, copywriting, and optimised listings across all major platforms. First impressions matter — we make yours count.
Every inquiry, booking request, and 2am message handled promptly. We keep your response rate high and your reviews glowing.
Professional cleaning crews for every checkout. Linens, supplies, and presentation managed to hotel standard.
Issues logged, prioritised and resolved. We have trusted local contractors on call so problems don't become disasters.
Transparent monthly reports showing revenue, occupancy, expenses and net profit. Your numbers, clear and honest.
We monitor market rates and adjust your pricing for peak seasons, local events and competitor moves to maximise revenue.
Regular scheduled inspections of your property with a detailed written condition report — interior, exterior, fixtures, appliances, garden and pool. Issues flagged before they become expensive problems.
For new builds and renovations, we can manage the entire furnishing and styling process — sourcing, purchasing, and setting up your villa so it's guest-ready from day one. Ideal for owners who can't be on the ground in Bali.
Your own secure login to a live dashboard — bookings, revenue, expenses, calendar and maintenance all visible in real time from anywhere in the world.
We've refined the onboarding process to get your villa earning as quickly as possible.
We learn about your villa, your goals, and answer any questions. No obligation, no sales pressure.
We visit, photograph, and assess your villa. We'll tell you honestly what it can earn and what guests will expect.
Professional photos, optimised copy, and listings across Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO and our direct booking site.
Guests book, we manage. Monthly reports land in your inbox. You stay as involved as you want to be.
Your villa listed and actively managed across all major booking platforms — plus our own direct booking site to save on commission.
No setup fees, no marketing fees, no surprise charges. We earn when you earn.
Platform fees (Airbnb, Booking.com etc.) are separate and paid directly by the guest or deducted at source — they are not part of our 20%.
Most management companies send a PDF once a month and call it transparency. We give you a live owner dashboard — login anytime, from anywhere, and see exactly what's happening with your property.
Every confirmed booking visible in real time — guest name, platform, check-in date, number of nights, and gross revenue. No waiting for a monthly summary.
See exactly how each booking is calculated — platform fee, IDC management fee, and your net payout — line by line, for every single booking.
One-click export of your monthly owner report as a PDF or CSV — ready for your accountant. Shows occupancy, revenue, expenses, and net profit per villa.
Every expense logged with category, vendor, notes and receipt photo. Pool maintenance, electricity, cleaning supplies — you see every cent spent on your property.
A calendar view showing bookings, owner holds, and vacant periods across your property. Plan your own visits around guest stays with full visibility.
See your future income locked in — month by month for the next 6 months, based on confirmed bookings. Projected revenue, nights booked and occupancy rate so you always know what's coming.
Every maintenance issue logged with photo, priority level, and status — Open, In Progress, or Resolved. You see what's happening at your villa, always.
We're Steve and Tara — Australians who spent a decade visiting Bali before deciding to invest here ourselves. Together we built and ran three real estate agencies in Brisbane, managing over 500 properties with a team of 40+ staff at our peak.
We built Casa de Loto in Canggu from scratch, renovated Unite By The Sea in Uluwatu, and have a third property underway in Nyang Nyang. We manage them ourselves — to the same standard we'd manage yours.
