The School of Sumba Hospitality Foundation

Being able to stay in the bamboo pavilions during our avidOutreach Program was a truly incredible experience for us. Visitors and volunteers are welcome to stay at The Sumba Hospitality School, the on-campus hotel school run by The Sumba Hospitality Foundation (SHF). In addition to staying in a hotel, you can get to know the students better and support them as they work to develop the island’s tourism industry, which will ultimately benefit the community.

There are four regencies that make up the island; Southwest Sumba, West Sumba, East Sumba, and Central Sumba. Several Austronesian languages are spoken by the locals on this island, including Kambera, which is spoken by majority of Sumbanese people in East Sumba.

This retreat was an homage to all the hard work we’ve put in this year; in just the first half of 2022, we were able to achieve as much as we did the entire year of 2021!
