Mantaray Island Resort

A

The tree house was comfortable. Everything was clean and the staff were welcoming. The snorkeling was great.

Beautiful location and grounds!

I loved Manta Ray Island Resort - especially my 6am coffees at the bar, watching the sunrise. The house reef is also lovely - the coral is somewhat recovering, but there are heaps of fish - including big edible fish that you rarely see elsewhere as it is a marine park.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mantaray Island Resort! We were in a Seaside Bure, only steps from the water and epic snorkeling- the best “house reef” snorkeling on the Yasawa Islands that we experienced. We enjoyed the snorkeling with manta rays and the delicious food. My only challenge was that some kind of bug ate the backs of my legs A LOT when I sat on the lounge chairs by the pool. One week later, I’m still struggling with those bites. I hope they replace those cushions soon- they were pretty worn out in addition to being infested. That certainly wouldn’t stop me from returning!

Really enjoyed my time here, despite the horrible weather in the first two days. Staff are very friendly and helpful, meals are delicious. The resort, beach and the reef nearby are so beautiful. We saw a few manta rays. The village tour is also amazing, highly recommend. Only area that needs improvement is staff should host more indoor activities when the weather is bad.

Activities seemed expensive compared to other yasawas and possibly less attentive to guests enjoying their time

The Fijian people were wonderful! We spent only 3 nights as an add-on to a dive vacation so we snorkeled right off the beach and it was amazing! The reef was very healthy and saw plenty of fish, live soft coral and even a Crown of Thorns starfish. We stayed in the beachfront villa and was very happy with everything, the aircon, outdoor bathroom and the front deck. The only notable discomfort was the sharp tile around the shower. Food in the restaurant was very very good and with plenty of variety. Portions were generous the fresh drinking water was delicious. WIfi was good in most parts of the resort, but I was there to unplug. The stairs leading to the restaurant were a bit challenging when it was raining so wear shoes with good traction. I would highly recommend this stay to anyone looking to escape from the ratrace.

Hello, we had such a wonderful time at Mantaray Island! We're so grateful we got to spot them, and the staff was absolutely amazing!

Stayed in a treehouse, deck was larger than I expected. Did not read carefully before booking about the mandatory food package, makes senses due to location, but food package was over priced for what you get. Cocktails 22-26fjd per drink, beer 11-12.50 fjd. Snorkeling was good. Would consider returning if meal package was cheaper, likely would not stay for more than 2-3 days.

Nice smaller resort that caters to lots of different budgets. Beautiful location. Amazing snorkeling right off beach- had some currents so better for bigger children. 3 days about right to stay here.

Staff were so fun and helpful. Thank you for making the stay downtown special.

The lovely people who run this resort are so great. The location is amazing and the marine activities are fantastic.

This is a small quiet resort with excellent snorkelling right off the resort beach. The dive instructors were excellent and friendly.

Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Out little tree house was neat and tidy. Wonderful place to visit. The reef was excellent too. Directly out in front.

Staff and management who always go the extra mile. Our visit could have been a potential disaster. I am in my 70’s with heart problems. My only criticism of the management is that it states nowhere that the restaurant is up a steep incline with steps then to climb. After my first visit, for me it was impossible .The staff, then surpassed themselves. Their answer was to bring the meals down to my husband and I. Everything was laid out to perfection, served by Peti ,in a courteous manner. Valentines night was stunning, a beautiful table with flowers, decorative serviettes and lots of love. Everyone came to chat, staff and fellow travellers alike. ‘This was one of 4 Fijian islands we stayed on and a place where young and old exchanged stories and enjoyed the relaxing friendly space. A wonderful place to visit. Thank you to everyone for making our stay so special. All our love Marie and John

Yes, but they could use more hooks inside and out for hanging items up.

antastic place to spend your time. Mantaray Island about 3.5 hours from the main island in Fiji in the Yasawa Island group, is a beautiful little hamlet of paradise. I spent 5 nights in a Reef Bure (With AC) an was extremely impressed with the cleanliness and general upkeep. The outdoor bathroom is an absolute highlight with its 3 different light/mood settings at night. The Bure itself was also only 12 step from the beach with its beautiful torquay blue water. Great snorkeling is on offer straight off the beach (High tide only) and a lovely hotel pool for low tide. The Restaurant served amazing meals on a set menu that changed every 2 day’s (B,L,D) and during the day you can swap your lunch meal for a pizza by the pool if you like, the resort also offers diving (Which I didn’t do this time) and a Spa that offers a limited but good range of massages. The Hotel is a cashless hotel, so you don’t need to have a wallet full of cash like I had. Overall this is a very good 4 star operation in the Yasawa group, and I am definitely looking to come back in July-September next year when the Mantaray swim past the Island.

Everything at this resort was excellent the staff the food the room the snorkeling And we have never met nicer people

We had two family reef bure for five days and our experience was universally excellent. The food portions were generous and well-prepared. We were shocked how good the service was so far out from Nadi. The resort focuses on customer care and looks after their house reef. The beds were comfortable and everyone loved the outdoor (but private) showers.
