Movement Inspired by Nature, Designed for Longevity

Active wellness is a pillar of Wild Wellness at NIHI® Sumba, a playground where the ‘workout’ takes a freeform shape as we are immersed in raw nature. Rest and recovery are also integral to our concept.

Guided by our fitness gurus, discover the endless possibilities of movement and longevity. Sumba is a playground to move your body, push boundaries, disconnect, and feel alive. From our epic new padel court to mobility training techniques for surfers, we have an endless range of activities for active explorers. We also have a free weights area down by the beach and an air-conditioned glass-fronted gym with ocean views for those who need a break from the island humidity while working out.

Foster happiness, move with intention, heal your central nervous system and get fit for life.

We’re thrilled to share a first glimpse of Untamed Heartbeat, a four-part documentary series by Tara Shupe, coming soon to our social channels.

Journey into the spirit of Sumba, where deep-rooted traditions, community and the future move together. Here, the past lives on in what is carried forward: in the people, their culture and the future generations.

The series also shines a light on the work of The Sumba Foundation, NIHI’s Sumba Horse Project and English Goes to Kampung, and their contributions to the future of Sumba’s communities.

Together in a similar stride. We will run.

Stay tuned for Part One, coming soon.

The magic of NIHI is found in its quiet moments: morning mist lifting over the hills, rays of light filtering through the palm trees, and horses running along the beach. As fishermen head out to sea and local boys ride along the shore, the island’s culture and daily life are all around you.

At NIHI Sumba, the resort is woven into these moments, offering a experience that feels deeply connected to the island. Recognised with Three MICHELIN Keys, the Guide’s highest hotel distinction, NIHI Sumba offers what Michelin describes as an extraordinary stay.

One of the programmes closest to our hearts is the Sumba Horse Project. 🧡

For more than two years, NIHI has been providing free veterinary care to horses in local villages across Sumba, holding weekly clinics and returning to each village approximately every three months to provide ongoing care and repeat essential treatments.

Facilitated by our dedicated NIHI Stables team alongside our veterinarian, Dr. Octa, these clinics provide essential medical treatment, health checks, deworming and advice on animal welfare. Many local horse owners walk for miles to attend, with care also extending to local dogs.

Horses are deeply woven into Sumba’s culture and heritage, and through this project, we hope to protect these beautiful animals and make a lasting difference to the communities who care for them.

A wellness experience unlike any other awaits at Nihioka Spa.

Five kilometres from NIHI Sumba, beyond traditional villages and rolling green hills, lies a secluded sanctuary where rice fields meet the Indian Ocean.

Your Half Day Spa Safari begins with breakfast or lunch overlooking the ocean, before retreating to your private open air bale for 2.5 hours of treatments.

Between treatments, discover hidden beaches, unwind beside the freshwater infinity pool, or simply take in the beauty of Nihioka’s untouched coastline.

More than a spa experience, this is an invitation to reconnect with nature, embrace stillness and discover wellness at the edge of wildness.
