Celebrate life’s most meaningful moments in the untamed beauty of Sumba.
Our Groups & Celebrations Villas offer the perfect sanctuary for families, friends, and loved ones to gather, reconnect, and create memories that last a lifetime.
Perched above the turquoise waves and surrounded by lush tropical gardens, each villa combines luxurious comfort with raw island charm, offering generous living spaces, private pools, and breathtaking ocean views. Whether it’s an intimate wedding, a milestone birthday, a wellness retreat, or simply time together under the Sumbanese sun, NIHI provides a backdrop unlike any other.
Let our dedicated team curate every detail — from private dinners on the beach and horseback rides at sunset, to traditional Sumbanese blessings and festive island feasts. Here, celebration feels natural, effortless, and deeply personal.
At NIHI Sumba, it’s not just a gathering — it’s an experience shared in one of the world’s last great frontiers.

Sunset scenes at NIHI Sumba. Local boys bathing their horses in the ocean, surfers catching the last waves of the day, palm trees silhouetted against the sky and the water glistening in the golden light. The soul of the island, at its most beautiful.

If heaven was a place on earth, it might look a little like NIHI.
There is something endlessly beautiful about watching horses roam free, running the shoreline and swimming in the ocean, life as it was intended. These majestic creatures are woven deeply into the culture of Sumba, companions to its people and part of the very soul of the island.
Enjoy the quiet life at NIHI Sumba.
Peaceful mornings, the sounds of nature, space to slow down and disconnect.
This is the magic of NIHI, the soul of the island felt in every breeze, every wave and every still moment. A place where the wild beauty of Sumba seems to soften time itself.

Raja Mandaka, the crown jewel of NIHI Sumba.
Perched above the Indian Ocean, with uninterrupted views stretching along the Sumbanese coastline, it feels like a world of its own. Mornings unfold slowly, golden light spills across the horizon, and the sound of the ocean follows you from sunrise to sunset.
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.
