The Best in the World

This absolutely the best hotel I've stayed with, no wonder it is rated to be among The Best in The World. The property, views, experience, service are just beyond exceptional. It was absolutely The Best at every aspect of it. Every moment, every experience was very unique at its emotions, quality and authenticity. I never had such amazing, high quality service as from every member of Nihi staff. Absolutely the best from the moment you land to Indonedsia (though we arrived a week before our arrival to Nihi, the staff helped us to go through express arrival clearance) until you depart Sumba. I highly recommend this hotel.

신혼여행으로 큰맘먹고 예약했는데 비싸긴 하지만 진짜 좋은 숙박이었음. 룸마다 개별 매니저가 있어 필요한 사항은 메신저로 얘기할 수 있었고 전망도 음식도 굿굿!!
