Why Ubud has fewer studios than its expat count suggests
Ubud's 10,000 expats are concentrated heavily in wellness and retreat industries — not content creation. The studio market reflects that: two operations in our catalog, both small.
What changes the math is the premium tier. Studio42 Ubud charges Rp3.5M for a 2-hour 2-camera session — the same ballpark as HypeHunters in Denpasar. For projects where the Ubud aesthetic adds value (yoga retreats, wellness brands, spiritual content), that price makes sense. For everything else, Canggu remains cheaper and faster.
