A Scenic Hike to
a Treehouse Breakfast.

One of the island’s most rewarding hikes, this journey leads from NIHI Sumba to our secluded NIHI Spa at Nihioka.

Depart through the resort gates and follow your guide through landscapes that unfold into different terrains of jungle, valley, and coastline. This 90 minute hike teaches you about the region’s diverse wildlife and introduces you to the traditions of the local communities, including a visit to a traditional Sumbanese village.

Upon arrival to NIHI Spa at Nihioka, you’ll be welcomed with chilled towels and a fresh young coconut before settling down to a rustic open-fire breakfast, served in a shaded treehouse platform perched high above a pristine cove. Have a relaxing breakfast with only nature as your company before leisurely enjoying the time in this serene location.

Welcome to NIHI Sumba.

There’s nowhere quite like it. Sitting on the Edge of Wildness on the remote island of Sumba, just an hour from Bali, it’s a place where wild beauty, adventure and a little bit of magic come together.

No trending audio. No soundtrack needed.

After an unforgettable first Healing with Horses retreat on the Edge of Wildness, we’re delighted to announce that Candice Webster will return to NIHI Sumba in 2027.

Our inaugural retreat brought together the extraordinary energy of Sumba, our Sandalwood horses and Candice’s intuitive approach to equine healing for five deeply transformative days of connection, renewal and discovery.

In 2027, we return to the herd for two intimate retreats:

1–6 June 2027
8–13 June 2027

Spaces are limited. Each retreat offers the opportunity to slow down, reconnect and experience the profound relationship between horses, nature and self.

Full details and enquires are available via the retreat page, linked in our bio.

Where culture runs deep and nature remains wild.

From ancient traditions and the enduring bond between the Sumbanese people and their horses, to untouched coastlines, rolling hills and endless horizons, Sumba is a place shaped by both its people and the land they call home.

At NIHI, every journey is a chance to experience the island as it has been for generations: raw, beautiful and deeply connected to its roots.

Mornings to dream about.

Wake to the sound of rolling waves, swaying palms, and birdsong as the island slowly comes to life. Here, peace isn’t something you have to search for, it’s all around you. In the quiet, away from the everyday, you’ll find space to reconnect with nature, with the moment, and with yourself.

The simplest mornings often leave the greatest impression.
