A couple of years ago our dear friends took us to their favourite hidden gem in Indonesia: Ngalung Kalla Eco Retreat nestled in the cliffs of Sumba. Owners Christian and Ka’ale built it to help reimagine how we might positively impact local ecology and culture.
Ngalung Kalla is rooted in the principles of permaculture – which means nutritious food is largely grown onsite – or caught out wide.
In addition to farm-to-table food, Ngalung Kalla offers daily yoga classes, immersive cultural experiences, open-air bamboo bungalows and a reeling righthander outfront – that – and this is a bit of an understated feature- take off points for almost any ability level, plus epic fossicking beach nooks for the whole family.
We all loved it. To learn more head to ngalungkalla.com
