About This Hotel:

Nihiwatu, a small and exclusive island hideaway in eastern Indonesia is one of the most extraordinary resorts in an archipelago of the extraordinary. Among travelers "in the know" who seek excitement with absolute privacy, Nihiwatu's reputation is unrivalled — for starters, world class fishing, surfing and diving are sensational and right outside your door, and not far away are unforgettable activities that are absolutely beyond compare.

 
Your Accommodations:

During your stay at Nihiwatu, your home will be one of only seven bungalows and three two bedroom villas that have been hand built by Indonesian craftsman. Each offers all of the comforts and the serenity expected. Your balcony features comfortable rattan chairs and a day bed with views to die for. All of our accommodations are ocean facing and fully air-conditioned with mosquito nets, mini-bars, in room safes, hot water, hair dryers and bathroom amenities.

There is a minimum stay of five nights but we recommend a stay of one week or more so that you can really experience all that Nihiwatu has to offer; the time you need to relax, to explore the island, indulge in sport, make friends among fellow guests and become part of the Nihiwatu family. A shorter visit hardly allows enough time to rest from the strain of travel and enjoy your holiday. We are fortunate to have a very high percentage of returning guests, most who stay longer on their second and third visits with us.

 
Hotel Amenities:

Our swimming and plunge pools are located on a hilltop overlooking the beach and sea. The spectacular views from this location make this the place to be spending some time simply doing nothing at all except soaking in the sun and clocking up maximum relaxation time.

There are few places better suited for Yoga, Pilates and Meditation than Nihiwatu. American Peter Jones is our resident instructor and he is available at anytime of the day for private or group practice and instruction. Our venue is inspiring; the structure is built according to traditional Sumba spirit house design and constructed following traditional methods and materials. It is the largest traditional building of its kind on the island and is the pride of the local residents who built it. More...

Although we don’t encourage our guests to mix business with pleasure we do understand that keeping in touch now and then is important. For you we have satellite phone communication and internet service available at our business center.

 
The Spa Experience:

At Nihiwatu we do know how to pamper. We have positioned our outdoor Jungle Spa under the trees just above the beach to allow for privacy and great views. A full range of massage and body treatments are available which, when coupled with the sound of the surf that is only meters away, will definitely sooth both your body and soul. Up high above the beach sits the Hilltop Spa, the ideal venue for a romantic experience. Here we can offer the “Ultimate Spa Experience”, soaking in a large scented tub, enjoying a chilled glass of wine or champagne with views to die for. Just when you think that it can’t get any better, it does … foot baths, massages, body scrubs, facials; this is an experience you will never forget!

 
The Dining Experience:

The restaurant and open air dinning pavilions overlook the sea and beach. Our chefs’ daily blackboard creations use only fresh homegrown vegetables, imported meats and our catch of the day. Guests enjoy a sampling of local and international cuisine including savory soups, barbequed fish, and fresh fruits. Coffee, tea and cakes are available at anytime and anywhere you want. We are usually able to accommodate special diet needs if guests give us adequate advance notice. Breakfast and lunches are served throughout most of the day but dinner is a special affair. Appetizers are served at the bar and when everyone sits down at the long tables for dinner they all take part in what often becomes very interesting conversations. Meal-time really becomes a gathering of friends.

The outdoor pavilions are the perfect place for romantic private dinning, be it near the beach or up on a hill, there really is nothing like eating out under the stars and moonlight.

Our bar is dramatically positioned on the cliffs edge with sweeping views of the sea, surf and the spectacular sunsets. The bar is fully stocked with a wide range of spirits and a selection of fine wines from Europe, North and South America and Australia. At sunset it becomes the pre-diner meeting place where guest share their exploits and adventures of the day. After dinner it can become quite a lively place where often times the truth will not get in the way of a good story.
