For those who seek excitement while savoring absolute privacy, Nihi Sumba Island is a singular retreat that resides in splendid isolation 400 kilometers east of Bali on the Indonesian Archipelago. Hidden on a secluded bay on the remote southwestern coast of Sumba Island, it offers just six bungalows and two villas, thatch-roofed and hand-built in contemporary Indonesian style by local craftsmen. Acres of dense tropical forest, rice terraces and grasslands add to the luxury that lives in harmony with the Sumbanese people and their island culture.

I have the best experience here for my honeymoon. Everything was bespoken. They really took care of us. The food was unlimited, and I’ve never felt a better sleep in my entire life.

NIHI Sumba is the most exceptional and authentic place where the true definition of hospitality exists. The moment you arrive, you’re embraced by the warmth of the community, the surroundings, and the culture. There’s a touch of magic here for every kind of traveler - whether you’re visiting as a family, exploring solo, seeking wellness, or celebrating a honeymoon. The only moment I was disappointed was when I had to leave and couldn't stay longer!

Nihi is truly unreal experience. Everything is perfect. The service is incredible 🫶🏻 Asna and Liam were our guest captains and made this vacation even more magic! Thank you Nihi Team for such a great place and also support for Sumbanese people. Can’t wait to get back.

From our arrival at Bali airport (NiHi reps checked us in and took us right thru to our boarding gate) until our departure in Sumba( same service there too) the NiHi team were amazing. They could not have been more helpful or accommodating to us. I can’t name everyone individually but Petrus, Doris & Lia did a wonderful job looking after the 4 of us. Paula from Catalonia, in the restaurants was super helpful and friendly and is a fabulous addition to your resort.our villa and pool was just gorgeous and housekeeping did beautiful decorations on our beds on arrival, departure and for our friends birthday. ❤️ we even had the ‘pleasure’ of one of the Monitor lizards visit our garden - it did scare the hell out of us initially but when we realized the 4 ft creature was probably more scared of us than us of him then it was a pleasure😉 We would highly recommend anyone to visit this amazing resort. The Sumba NiHi foundation does incredible work with the Sumbanese people and it’s a credit to the hotel. We are sad leaving such a beautiful resort.

As non surfers or horseback riders and avid beach bathers we were slightly concerned about exactly what we would be able to do when we got to Nihi , but it didn’t disappoint .We were captivated by the beauty of the location and the views , the well appointed rooms and stunning landscaping,not to mention the warm and very genuine welcome and service . After that we found there was more than enough to do and our waterfall trek on one day and the spa safari the next, were a brilliant introduction to Sumba . Upon our return from excursions, delightful staff and delicious meals and awaited us and we were sorry we couldn’t stay longer to explore more of this lovely place - but we will for sure be back !
