NIHI Sumba's villas and estates at Wanokaka, West Sumba, grouped by bedroom count — bed configurations, pool setups, and notable features.
In short
NIHI Sumba has no tiered room-class system. Every accommodation is a standalone villa or multi-bedroom estate, distinguished by bedroom count and site rather than a Deluxe/Suite hierarchy.
Overview
NIHI Sumba's accommodation is entirely freestanding villas and estates spread across a bluff and beachfront site: no central hotel block, no published room-class hierarchy, and no square-meter dimensions published for any villa. Each villa carries an individual name, distinguished by bedroom count, elevation, and proximity to the beach or surf break. Raja Mandaka is the top-tier villa for uninterrupted ocean views. The Treehouse separates its three bedrooms into distinct structures joined by elevated walkways, with two swimming pools plus a private plunge pool in its spa room. Putri Puncak carries two infinity pools at the resort's high point. Pool arrangements vary; some villas share a plunge pool between two adjacent units, while others hold multiple pools. Every villa includes AC, Wi-Fi, an in-room yoga mat, and an assigned "Guest Kapten" (villa attendant). Total villa count is inconsistent across the site's own pages (31 versus 23 named units), a discrepancy that is flagged here rather than resolved by guessing.
