Experience the powerful blend of energy healing and nature with a reiki session at NIHI Spa. Surrounded by the gentle presence of our Sumba horses, you’ll be guided by our expert healer, Lina, through a deeply restorative equine reiki experience designed to bring balance, clarity, and connection.
As first light filters through the palm trees, catching the rising mist and hitting the rolling waves, magic stirs to life. At @nihi, the wonder of untamed nature is all around you, waiting to be discovered. Swim in your private pool overlooking the wild beauty of Sumba, where jungle, ocean, and sky exist in perfect harmony. Welcome to the Edge of Wildness.
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.

Nothing can quite explain @nihi’s Spa Safari - a wellness journey like no other.
Five kilometres from the resort, the experience begins long before the first treatment. Travel by trek, horseback, or safari vehicle through villages and rolling hills until the landscape opens to a spa hidden between rice fields and the ocean.
Set across 100 acres of Nihioka, this is wellness shaped by nature. Design your own experience with open-air treatments that unfold across hours, carried by ocean breezes and guided by skilled hands. Open-fire meals, hidden coves, equine connections, and even a private villa stay are all part of the magic awaiting at NIHI Spa.

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. Swim, snorkel, or paddle board in the peaceful turquoise waters before your catch is served at your own a private barefoot barbecue. The Robinson Crusoe Experience is a memorable day for those seeking an authentic island adventure.
Serene moments in tranquil surroundings. Here, the world beyond Sumba fades away. Palm trees sway in the breeze, waves roll gently onto shore, and horses wander freely along 2.5 kilometres of untouched beach. This is a place where the wildness of Sumba calms the mind, restores the soul, and invites you to slow down. Welcome to @nihi, your home at the Edge of Wildness.

Sit back and take in the tranquility and picturesque setting of NIHI Spa. A rejuvenating retreat set in the midst of palm trees with an ocean view.
To get to Nihioka from @nihi requires either a 90-minute scenic trek, a 10-minute drive by safari vehicle, or a journey by e-bike or horseback. However you choose to arrive, your reward is to arrive to a place surrounded by nature that is disconnected from everywhere else. Enjoy an ocean-view breakfast before beginning an immersive half-day NIHI Spa Safari experience, with three treatments chosen by you from the menu. Choices include a therapeutic horse massage as part of NIHI Sumba’s Equine Wellness offering.
NIHI Spa is an unforgettable experience where your mind, body, and nature move gently back into harmony.

Feel the quiet magic of @nihi’s herd on Nihiwatu Beach. Moving to an unhurried rhythm, they wade through the water and leave footprints in the sand before letting their spirits loose in a gallop along the shoreline. A beautiful reminder of what true freedom looks like.
