About The Hotel

Nestled within the resorts 100 hectare reserve, all villas sit on the two kilometers of white sand beach. The Sanubari's luxury minimalist design makes the most of the stunning location. Oversized windows draw the environment in, connecting the inside and outside spaces. Premium materials, hand crafted furniture and local artisan weavings and carvings set the tone for your Sumbanese experience.

The hotel is as picture-perfect as they come, with horses wandering about in and out of the water, miles of undisturbed sandy shoreline, and six villas — each equipped with a private pool, with an exception of the studio.

Sustainable Initiatives

Environmental and Social Responsibility

The hotel plays its part in keeping Sumba paradisiacal well. An onsite farm supplies the kitchen with fresh produce (and only local growers and fishermen are called on to supplement), solar panels are being installed, bath products are custom made and green as can be, and plastics have been drastically reduced. The hotel has made significant efforts to source building materials from nearby (local teak, stone, and alang grass among them) and improves the local ecosystem by planting more than 5,000 native trees within its 100-hectare reserve.The native community has been cared for, too, forming a 100-strong team of staff; and owners have built a school and water stations for the nearby kampungs (villages).
