Once you get to Bali, you’ll still have a few travelling hours before reaching the NIHI Sumba. When you finally make it there, we bet you will feel like you are at the end of the world, just like the hotel founder Chris Burch did when he discovered this hidden gem in the 90s. With no running water, hardly any electricity and rampant malaria, the small island of Sumba lives under the constant threat of a cataclysm. To provide the island with these basic necessities, this benefactor set up a foundation, which also contributed to bringing education to the young local community. 30 years later, this dream eco-lodge features surfing, wild horses, paddle boarding and wild waterfalls. 28 villas have been built on the edge of a stretch of white sand, offering a privileged setting for an unforgettable holiday.
