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.

Today, we bid a heartfelt farewell to one of our original Sumba sea horses, Hanna.

Hanna was our very first healing horse, the one who showed us the way. She spent her days at Nihioka Spa Safari, living peacefully beneath the palm trees and grazing on the hillside.

Through her gentle nature and intuitive energy, she brought comfort, connection and healing to so many. She touched the lives of everyone who had the joy of meeting her. Today, her herd honoured her in the water with a final farewell.

Her spirit will forever run free along the shores of Nihiwatu Beach. Thank you, Hanna, for the healing, love and cherished memories. You will always be a treasured part of the NIHI herd.

No, this is not AI. This is NIHI.

Here, horses are at the heart of the culture, carrying generations of tradition, ceremony and an enduring sense of freedom.

Across the island, local Sumbanese people bring their horses to the sea to bathe and swim. At NIHI, our horses also enter the ocean daily, swimming or simply standing in the shallows as the cool water washes over them.

One of the comments we receive most often is that these scenes must be AI. But no, everything you see on this page is real, authentic and unmistakably Sumba.
