Fast, Social, and Addictive.

Experience the fastest-growing racket sport in the world on the first and only Padel court in Sumba.

Padel is a fun, sociable, and highly addictive game suitable for players of all ages and abilities. Combining elements of tennis and squash, the rules allow players to incorporate the walls into gameplay, creating longer rallies and a dynamic style of play that is easy to learn yet endlessly engaging. Matches can be enjoyed as singles or doubles, making it a perfect activity for friends, families, or competitive players.

Our court is open day and night, surrounded by lush tropical greenery for an immersive sporting experience.

Perched above the wild beauty of Nihiwatu, @nihi’s Putri Hillrise Villa looks out across endless ocean views, rolling coastline, and glowing sunsets. This two-bedroom sanctuary was designed for slowing down, switching off, and disappearing into nature. Drift between quiet mornings by the pool and evenings where the sky melts into the sea.
When the day begins with breakfast overlooking the ocean as wild horses wander along Nihiwatu Beach, all while you sip your morning coffee. You can feel the world slow down. There’s no rush here, only time to listen to the soothing rhythm of the waves, to watch the horses wade into the water, and to wander barefoot down the path until you’re standing among the herd. It’s moments like this when you know you’re not somewhere ordinary. You’re at @nihi..#nihigram by @mathilde_capp

Woven into the experience of staying at @nihi, the ancient traditions of the island remain deeply present.In the fading light on Nihiwatu Beach, the silhouettes of Sumbanese warriors stand against the sunset glow, looking out across the land where generations have carried the spirit of Sumba..#nihigram by @alifeiimagined

Embark from @nihi on a day cast away on Sumba’s untouched shores.Set out by boat in the early morning to go fishing in the open waters where you’ll catch your own lunch before heading to the white sands of Konda Beach.
