Kemang has long been an expats’ favorite area to live. No wonder we have two apartments in this list that are located in Kemang.
Unlike Kemang Village Apartment that is adjacent to a shopping mall, Marbella Apartment is located in Jalan Bangka Raya. Not really in the center of Kemang, but it makes an easier access to other parts of South Jakarta such as Mampang.

Good deal!

6. RUKITA CO-LIVING @ CIPUTRA WORLD APARTMENT
Ciputra World is known as the location for several office towers such as Ciputra building, DBS Tower, and Tokopedia Tower.
Walking distance from this area you can find Mega Kuningan, one of the busiest business district in Jakarta that houses even more office buildings and some of the most popular expat hangouts such as Loewy, J. Sparrow, and Basque.
That’s why Ciputra World Apartment is the most ideal place to live, both for work and play, if you spend most of your days in and around Kuningan.
The problem is that the rent free for apartment units in Ciputra World is way more than 10 million per month (and of course you will have to pay for the entire year rent).
That is unless you book a room at Ciputra World with Rukita.
Rukita is a co-living provider that lets you rent a bedroom in a shared apartment unit. This way, you’ll get a housemate but you can also rent it in a more affordable price, starting 9 million rupiah for a bedroom in a Rukita unit in Ciputra World.
This price already includes maintenance, water & electricity bill, even laundry and room cleaning. And the best part is that you can rent and pay monthly. Much more flexible if you are not sure yet whether you’ll even stay in Jakarta for the entire year.
