Embrace Development

Who we are

Embrace Development, a human-first Bali real estate developer

Embrace Development is a Bali real estate developer creating residential ecosystems where investment logic and quality of life coexist naturally. We build across the island’s most considered locations, Uluwatu, Melasti Beach, and Ubud. Designing environments where it is safe to invest, comfortable to live, and natural to grow.

We don’t scale identical buildings. Every Embrace project is shaped around real life, the way people actually live, work, raise families, and rest. Architecture sets the character, infrastructure sets the rhythm, and the space becomes a natural extension of daily life. Not just villas, but an environment. Not just yield, but long-term value.

Our philosophy

Human-first development, built on capital and structured for stability

Bali’s market is saturated with promises of 15%, 20%, “guaranteed income.” Serious investors have grown tired of it. They are no longer moved by attractive numbers; they are looking for reliability, transparency in the deal structure, and a partner they can trust. Embrace was built for exactly that investor.

At the core of the company is personal responsibility. We invest our own capital into the projects we create, sharing with our partners not only the opportunities but also the obligations. That single decision changes everything: it creates a high level of developer accountability, resilience through construction and delivery, and genuine alignment between developer, investor, and resident.

Founder’s message

A different focus for development

“Embrace Development was born from personal experience — investing in, living with, and working in real estate. Over more than twenty years in investment and consulting, I watched projects measured only in square metres and yields. But behind every property there is always something more: the environment, the feeling, the rhythm, the human experience.

Bali became an extension of my own investment and personal story. This is where the idea took shape to build a company that develops projects with a different focus: on quality of life, long-term resilience, and the developer’s responsibility to both investor and resident. I am developing this project in part through my own resources — from the original idea through the investment of personal capital. That is my way of showing trust in what we are creating.”

— Vladimir Avdeev, Co-Founder, Embrace Development

What makes us different

How Embrace approaches Bali property development

Context and harmony

Our projects fit organically into Bali’s cultural and natural context. We account for the landscape, the climate, and the local mindset — modern architecture in genuine dialogue with the island.

Safety over promises

We do not sell aggressive investment expectations. The focus is transparency, resilience, and the real capitalisation of a project — not slogans.

Infrastructure as an asset

Internal infrastructure is treated as a driver of liquidity, steady demand, and residents’ quality of life. The environment is what strengthens the investment.

Financial resilience

The founder’s personal capital forms a solid foundation for delivering and completing every project.

Partnership model

Strong partners, professional teams, and international-level expertise sit at the core of everything we build.

For investors

An investment grounded in resilience, transparency, and long-term value

Investing with Embrace Development means participating in projects where the architectural concept, infrastructure model, and financial structure form a single, balanced investment product. The internal ecosystem strengthens market appeal, supports steady demand, and builds lasting liquidity — with a thinking horizon of ten years and beyond.

Our model is backed by the founder’s personal capital, which underpins developer accountability, delivery discipline, and strategic stability. Embrace speaks to investors who value measured decisions, product quality, and the fundamental reliability of an asset — people building a wider strategy, not chasing a single number.

Our flagship project

ZEN Residence

Design-led living above Melasti Beach, Uluwatu

ZEN Residence is Embrace Development’s flagship — a boutique branded development on the Bukit Peninsula in Ungasan, five minutes from Melasti Beach. Across 25,000 sq m, the masterplan brings together 167 residences and roughly 5,000 sq m of five-star-calibre shared infrastructure: a self-sufficient ecosystem where everything residents and guests need is integrated into one walkable environment.

Conceived as a contemporary interpretation of Japanese design — a restrained palette, natural materials, high ceilings, and thoughtful zoning — ZEN is built to feel timeless rather than trend-driven, and to hold its value over the long term. Shared spaces include the first traditional Japanese onsen mineral hot spring in Bali, four dining formats, a yoga and functional-training studio, a kids camp, co-working space, a retail gallery, and a central Japanese garden and pool.

ZEN is operated by OXO Group Indonesia, a boutique developer and property-management company focused on neo-luxury lifestyle products — bringing full-service operations, concierge, and data-driven marketing so owners earn without day-to-day involvement. It is offered in partnership with 8 Degree Real Estate, guiding international buyers through every stage from selection and due diligence to purchase and handover.

Beyond ZEN

A growing portfolio across Bali

ZEN is the first expression of the Embrace approach, not the last. Our pipeline extends across the island’s most sought-after settings — including Beverly Hills Villas and a dedicated wellness development — each conceived as its own environment, designed around specific life scenarios rather than repeated to a template. Different locations, one consistent philosophy: architecture, infrastructure, and management that create lasting value for residents and investors alike.
