Miss Universe 2019 Visited Sumba

Lelewatu Resort Sumba had the honour of hosting Miss Universe 2019, Zozibini Tunzi, during her visit to Sumba at the end of January. Zozibini was truly amazed by the beauty of the nature of Sumba, as all the places she visited reminded her of her hometown. She loved the friendly people in Sumba and was excited to learn about their culture and experience its wonderful nature.

Sumba is heaven for those who seek natural scenery, not to mention the blue ocean with white sandy beaches covered by natural stone, the magnificent savanna and hilly landscape, refreshing waterfalls, and many more features. Sumba is also popular for its culture and traditions such as Pasola, Pajura, traditional villages, traditional weaving to make the popular “Ikat Sumba,” and the Marapu belief system.

Zozibini visited the magical island of Sumba in the context of making a video for an advertisement for one of the Indonesian-made vitamin drinks. Starting her journey in the eastern part of Sumba Island, she visited several tourist sites such as Wairinding Hill, Mandorak Beach, and Walakiri Beach to name a few.

Lelewatu Resort Sumba was chosen as Zozibini’s home while she was in Sumba. This new luxury resort in West Sumba was built by Sumbanese businesswoman Jenny Tan. Lelewatu Resort Sumba enhances the collection of luxury resorts on Sumba Island with the intention to preserve Sumbanese heritage. Zozibini really enjoyed her stay, especially the breathtaking ocean views from her room.
