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/estates spread across a bluff and beachfront site — no central hotel block, no published room-class hierarchy, no square-meter dimensions published for any villa. Each villa carries an individual name, distinguished by bedroom count, elevation, proximity to beach/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, 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, others hold multiple pools. Every villa includes AC, Wi-Fi, in-room yoga mat, assigned "Guest Kapten" (villa attendant). Total villa count is inconsistent across the site's own pages (31 vs 23 named units) — flagged, not resolved by guessing.
