The world offers no shortage of romantic honeymoon destinations. From overwater bungalows to exotic candlelit dinners, the familiar promise of luxury and escape is everywhere. But what if romance is more than the sum of its sunsets, more than champagne shared beneath a foreign sky? What if a honeymoon could be as alive and singular as the love it celebrates?
True intimacy is found in the details that linger: a swim beneath a pale morning sky, laughter echoing in wild places, slow evenings where time unspools at its own pace. It’s the freedom to be relaxed, to play and discover, to feel both known and surprised.
As you begin this new chapter, picture a place where tradition and wild beauty blend seamlessly, creating a honeymoon shaped by what you feel and discover. Imagine a destination that invites you to be as you are… connected, spontaneous, and truly together.
On the remote island of Sumba, NIHI is that invitation.
Sumba is where romance breathes freely. Just a short flight from Bali, this Indonesian island welcomes you with wide beaches, verdant valleys, and never-ending hills. There is a feeling here that the world has slowed down. Yet within the stillness, there is space for laughter, adventure, and the kind of joy that grows from wandering hand in hand.
What sets Sumba apart is its sense of spaciousness and privacy. Beaches stretch for miles without crowds, and it’s not unusual to find yourself the only couple on the sand at sunset. Ancient villages, forest trails, hidden waterfalls, and vast coastlines promise experiences that feel personal and untouched by the rhythms of more traveled places. For honeymooners, Sumba offers the rare gift of feeling that time and landscape belong just to you.
NIHI Sumba, a resort nestled on Sumba’s wild coastline, is where romance feels genuine: never arranged, never forced. Here, each day emerges with a sense of openness. Couples find room to shape their own journey, whether that means wandering beneath palm trees, waking to the sound of the sea, or letting time drift away in the comfort of a private villa. Whatever calls to you: adventurous experiences, renewal in the form of yoga or oceanfront spirituals, or simple togetherness… You’ll find a place for it here.
NIHI is guided by an ethos of true hospitality and wild beauty. The landscape is both vast and intimate, inviting you to lose track of the hours and simply be side by side. Service is attentive in the truest sense. Each gesture feels personal, every detail thoughtfully placed with your comfort in mind. Whether you find yourselves picnicking on an empty beach or sharing stories by lantern light, these are moments that simply can’t be found anywhere else.
There is a sense of home here, woven through each gentle encounter and each sunrise that greets you. NIHI is not just a place to visit, but to belong.
At NIHI Sumba, each villa offers you a world of your own, complete with a private pool and designed for ultimate seclusion.

A honeymoon at NIHI is never rushed. Each day invites you to settle into your own shared flow, drifting easily between tranquility and celebration as the island moves through its light.
To spark your imagination, here is just a glimpse of the kinds of experiences couples can savor together, from gentle mornings to spirited adventures and evenings that seem to stretch on forever. And these are only a few of the possibilities waiting at NIHI.
The day begins gently, often with a floating breakfast delivered to your deck as the sun lifts over the horizon. There’s space to listen to the sea, to let conversation wander as you savor fruit and pastries in the open air. Mornings might bring a quiet walk along empty sand, the only footprints your own. For deeper restoration, journey together on the Spa Safari: a morning that blends trekking with a series of private spa treatments, served in open-air bales nestled in secluded coves. Or stretch and breathe side by side with yoga or meditation, awakening body and mind together.
As the day brightens, the invitation to adventure arrives. Ride horses along the shoreline at sunrise, or catch the thrill of surfing world-class waves side by side. For something gentler, glide across calm waters on a paddle board, sharing laughter as you learn and play. Join in spearfishing, float down jungle rivers, or set off on foot to find waterfalls hidden deep within Sumba’s wild interior. Every adventure can be tailored for two, becoming a memory only you share.
As evening falls, the island glows with promise. Choose a private, candlelit dinner just steps from your villa, or gather around a bonfire by the sea with the sky overhead unfolding into stars. Indulge in the Romance Bath ritual: a flower-filled, candle-lit oasis, complete with NIHI chocolates and a bottle of champagne or fresh juice, prepared only for you. As the night deepens, cocktails at sunset and conversation carry easily, unhurried, into the quiet hours. Here, every night feels endless.
