Sumba Island, Indonesia, Sunday Afternoon
Welcome to Nihi Sumba, one of the best resorts on the planet. While many resorts play lip service to ecological friendliness and working with local populations, Nihi Sumba really does walk the walk. The resort has a strong focus on sustainability and a steadfast dedication to giving back to the local Sumbanese community while respecting and helping to preserve island traditions.
The island’s remote location is beautiful but it is also isolating for the island’s people, which has caused wide-spread and extreme poverty. Since its opening in 2001, Nihi has single-handedly kickstarted the island’s economy and aimed to improve the quality of life for those living on the island. Around 90 percent of the staff on-property are Sumbanese, and many more islanders have been employed through the food supply and materials needed to maintain the resort’s upkeep and operations.
