Sumba: Our Unforgettable Arrival
Our Indonesian adventure began with the ultimate indulgence: a helicopter arrival to our private beachfront villa at NIHI Sumba on Sumba Island. The golden sand beaches stretched out endlessly, meeting the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, a truly striking sight. NIHI Sumba boasts 12 exquisite private villas, each offering exceptional luxury and privacy. Imagine stepping off your private helicopter directly into this paradise. The sheer scale of the natural beauty here is astounding, and the sense of exclusivity is palpable. It was the perfect start to our ultimate luxury honeymoon.
Beyond Sumba: Exploring Indonesia’s Gems
Indonesia offers so much more than just Sumba’s pristine shores. For a truly unique experience, consider the Bawah Reserve, a collection of 6 tropical islands located 160 nautical miles northeast of Singapore. This pristine marine conservation area is ideal for those seeking untouched natural beauty and incredible marine life. If you’re drawn to ancient history and culture, Yogyakarta on Java is a must-visit. We stayed at the exquisite Amanjiwo hotel, perfectly situated for exploring the majestic Borobodur and Prambanan temples. Accessing the famous Komodo dragons is done via Flores, the gateway island to Komodo National Park. Another incredible wildlife experience awaits at Tangkoko National Park on Sulawesi, home to rare macaques and offering sea kayaking opportunities on the Lembeh Strait. For those who love nature treks and stunning scenery, Munduk in northern Bali provides luxury waterfall hikes and private villas set amidst lush landscapes. A 13-day luxury journey in Indonesia, covering Bali’s culture, a Komodo expedition, and Yogyakarta’s architecture, starts from $21,300 per person. Black Tomato also offers a luxury adventure across Indonesia, starting on Java and including the beautiful Medana beaches in Lombok, for $11,700 per person, excluding flights. The possibilities for an incredible luxury honeymoon in Indonesia are endless.
