A magical stay at Nihi Sumba in our Puncak Sumba House, where every detail was close to perfection. From the warm airport welcome, we were captivated by the island’s wild beauty and the kindness of Asna and Lian, our captain and butler. Unforgettable moments: • Witnessing the release of baby turtles back into the ocean during the happy hours at the boathouse. • Visiting an English class funded by the hotel and having the privilege to present Switzerland to a hundred attentive and curious students – a moving human exchange we will never forget. • Enjoying the sumptuous Sumba Foundation buffet, of truly exceptional quality. Nihi Sumba is not just a hotel: it’s a unique, heartfelt experience that leaves a lifelong imprint. Nihi Sumba is not a place you visit – it’s a place you live, and it changes you forever.

I waited until 24 hours after leaving NIHI Sumba before I sat down to write this review as I felt I needed to process just how special this island and this resort is. It is the sort of place where you feel a little conflicted even leaving a review, on one hand wanting to keep NIHI Sumba to yourself so it always remains this special, and on the other wanting to tell people that if they can they need to experience it! We travelled to NIHI Sumba in August as part of a celebratory trip for my 50th birthday. We are a family of five, with three boys two of whom are teenagers and one who is ten. Each of us was similarly blown away by our five nights at this incredible resort. From the fantastic welcome at the airport, to the unique journey to NIHI through the wild and unspoiled landscape, and the unforgettable first glimpses of the resort. The welcome remained just as warm when we arrived and we were shown to our beautiful and spacious villas. The landscape around the resort is immaculate, and the beach just needs to be seen to be believed. We got the chance to experience many things here that were firsts - surfing for the boys, baby turtles being released, incredible waterfalls, walks to an unbelievably beautiful spa through traditional Sumbanese villages, swimming in the ocean with horses, and more. There is also plenty to keep you entertained outside of the numerous activities such as yoga, Padel, pickleball, table tennis and a pool table. Yet at the same time we were able to fully relax and switch off from the world. Exactly what a holiday should be. Before we arrived I was a little concerned about going somewhere where the food is all-inclusive as this can often mean lower quality. I needn't have worried though as every meal we had was fantastic. There are different themes every night, and the extensive menus and choices mean there is always something for everyone. All of the ingredients were incredibly fresh and tasty. I am going to struggle to go back to pre-prepared sushi having tasted it from fish caught that same morning! To experience all of this and then to see the impact that NIHI and the Sumba Foundation are having on the people of Sumba made our stay even more important. From providing education and healthcare to the local communities, and making very meaningful improvements in fighting malaria and malnutrition, it is amazing to also be supporting something with so much purpose. It seems unfair to single out individuals as every member of staff was amazing! However, I cannot thank our Guest Captains Doris, Adji, and Alce enough for how well they looked after us. Nothing was too much trouble, and we always knew where to turn if we needed something. We even contacted them after we had left our holiday on Sumba and were in Bali and realised we left behind something that was extremely precious to our ten year old. Not only did they help find it, but we had it delivered to our hotel in Bali the very next day! I cannot describe how th

We had an such a wonderful stay at the awesome Nihi property. Starting with the handling of the checkin procedure in Bali to welcoming us in Sumba made the journey really delightful. We were well taken care off as bad weather led to flight cancellations when leaving Sumba. Fresh coconuts were waiting in the car and after a 90mins drive, we were warmly welcomed by the Nihi team. Our villa was spectacular, the location stunning and the warmth and friendliness of all staff was super great. My wife has some food intolerances and the chef and staff took super care to work around those, this must be applauded as it made a big positive difference for my wife. Spa safari is a must and we were truly glad we hiked there, it made the relaxation so much more enjoyable afterwards! The canoe excursion with Tami was tranquil (Still wondering Tami, how you managed to get soaked ) and we were greeted friendly everywhere by locals in and next to the river. The guest captains Marthen, Dida and Valentin worked tirelessly in the background to make our stay as bliss as possible. And still, despite all the pampering, there was a tad of wildness still felt, the horses running at the beach, the informal mingling at the happiest hour and to witness the release of freshly hatched sea turtles was the proverbial icing on the cake. We hope to be back.

One of the best trips I've had so far, the beach was just amazing unlike any other beach in the world. Took us only 1 hour flight from bali yet we arrived on a very different island unlike bali here at sumba. Horses are so cute and just made the trip perfect. Foods are nice and the rooms as well. The team that handled us Petrus, doris and Dinda are the MVP super friendly and literally available 24/7

It was magnificent! The location, the staff, food and accommodation are 7 star! Your every wish is anticipated before you even knew you wanted it. The surf is the best in the world and the yoga with the lovely Emilie is outstanding. You truly are at the edge of wilderness and that’s what makes it so special!
