Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Laucala ended up being the best place I have ever stayed (this specifically pertains to one room category), narrowly edging out my stay in the owner’s villa at Nihi Sumba, which I had previously thought was in a class of its own.
  • There are just so many amazing resorts in Indonesia- Amanjiwo, Nihi Sumba, Bawah, Mandapa!
  • honestly a combo trip of Amanjiwo + Nihi Sumba sounds exactly like what you're describing...
  • Nihi definitely has barefoot luxury feels. ... If you have any interest in learning how to surf or already love surfing, I would push you towards Nihi as well.
  • Parent context: My honeymoon is in early July and I was looking at something similar but pivoted to Nihi Sumba/Amanjiwo/Tokyo since it doesn't seem like the best time of year for Laos/Cambodia.. what are your thoughts on the rainy season...

Cons

  • Everything else with an already available non refunable option is just sketchy marketing with a bad taste.
  • That deal is peak definition ok fake 3rd night free. Without offer: 40.060.000 IDR With 3rd night free: 35.660.000 IDR for June 2026, cheapest villa That is barely 10% off and the rate is not even cancelable.
  • Also looked at NIHI Sumba and Bawta Reserve but they just too expensive for now.
  • Nihi Sumba
  • That's a very short time for Nihi Sumba for the PITA for getting all the way there.

Reply: I honestly didn’t do quite enough research on rainy season before booking, but once I kept reading up on it, we were fully prepared and excited to experience it.
