The Sumba Hospitality Foundation runs 2 projects that serve as the real-world training for our students. Firstly we have our hotel “Maringi Sumba” and secondly a restaurant “Makan Dulu”.
Why not plan your next holiday in Sumba?
Eating at Makan Dulu is a unique culinary experience and a great way to support the Sumba Hospitality Foundation. Our students will be happy to serve you. Without any doubt, this is the most delicious way of donating.
