One of the exclusive resorts on the island of Sumba, where David Beckham and his family once spent their holiday at this resort😅.This resort has a private beach, so apart from guests staying here, they are not allowed to enter the resort area and the beach, in terms of security screening, the system is also quite strict.The information is that each room here is deliberately not equipped with a television so that you can focus more on your holiday.Honestly, I came here because I was hosted by a colleague who also happened to be involved in managing this resort.Don't stay here because the information is that the price is expensive😅So my friends and I just enjoyed the view of the beach and enjoyed soft drinks at the beach restaurant.

A truly wonderful holiday destination on a serene island in the Indian Ocean. Nihi at Sumba offers a luxurious, personal and relaxing stay in what really looks and feels like paradise.We stayed in a beautiful treehouse style villa with private pools and spectacular views, with everything we needed at our reach thanks to the amazing staff. Our stay was made incredibly special and meaningful thanks to efforts and gestures from the staff.The facilities offer both relaxation and activities ranging from sports to entertainment and cultural exploration.Cannot recommend Nihi enough and will make sure to visit it again soon.
