Part One of Untamed Heartbeat explores the bond between the people of Sumba and their horses. Woven into culture and ceremony, horses are part of a deeper connection between people, the land and tradition.

NIHI CEO James McBride speaks about the island’s distinct character and Marapu culture, while owner Chris Burch reflects on its untamed spirit. Together, their perspectives offer a glimpse of what makes Sumba so special: its people, its wild landscapes and the traditions carried forward.

No soundtrack needed at NIHI. Wherever the day takes you, the ocean is there in the background, joined by the sounds of horses and nature. Sumba’s natural soundtrack, all around you throughout your stay.

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.
