The Suite
Beyond the horizon, on a beach where horses gallop across a perfect crescent of sand to swim with guests each morning, Nihi Sumba is the quintessence of ‘far-flung.’ The nine-bedroom Mandaka Owner’s Estate extends across a hill’s crest with riveting views of the Indian Ocean. Characteristically Indonesian with grass-and-palm thatched roofs and airy rooms, it comprises different villas that surround a main house, Raja Makanda, Mankanda Sumba House and Makanda Surf, with king-sized beds, walk-in wardrobes and balconies with ocean views. Amenities are plentiful, and include various lap pools, plunge pools, waterfall pools and outdoor bathtubs and showers. For in-suite dining, guests are spoiled for choice, with both an indoor and outdoor dining area, as well as a fully-equipped kitchen, outdoor pizza oven and barbecue. If you require anything at all, a Guest Kapten is on hand to take care of your needs and ensure a relaxing stay.
The Hotel
Adventure and simplicity define the experience at Nihi Sumba, a remote island resort shaped by nature and community. Villas are spread across the hillside with views of the ocean and jungle, designed to blend into the landscape with thatched roofs, natural stone and open-air spaces. Days can be active or quiet, from horseback rides and surf lessons to spa treatments and long beach walks. Sustainability and cultural engagement are woven into the guest journey. Nihi is an off-grid luxury stay that prioritizes purpose, connection and wild beauty.
