Aside from the well-known \Borobudur Temple\ and \Prambanan Temple\ in the Indonesian archipelago, there is another hidden gem in the southeastern part of the island: \Sumba\ (Sumba). In recent years, it has become an emerging holiday destination for many travelers. The island’s only resort, “Nihi Sumba Island,” has even been rated by many international media outlets as the best hotel in the world.

Built with the philosophy of preserving culture and natural landscapes, the resort’s architecture almost blends seamlessly with the jungle. It boasts a 2.5-kilometer private beach and offers a variety of unique villas, along with numerous holiday experiences such as spa treatments, fishing, stand-up paddleboarding, diving, and eco-tourism — providing a truly secluded escape.
