Mantaray Island Resort

.

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

Vierailu oli aivan ihana! Paikka oli kaunis, siisti ja henkilökunta oli ystävällistä. Lapset otettiin huomioon hienosti. Koralli, mikä oli heti rannan vieressä, oli uskomattoman kaunis ja joka päivä nähtiin kaikkea uutta.

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.

Personalen var jättebra! Så trevliga. Bra mat

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.

Everything here is AMAZING! The resort, staff, food, vibe, snorkeling, views, beach, and on and on. Highly recommend for all types of travelers (solo, family, couples). Very peaceful and tranquil place. We had an unforgettable experience. Cannot rave enough about the snorkeling. Out of this world!

Propreté personnel très à l’écoute lit et drap confortable bon choix de repas belle plage avec hamacs

10/10 Awesome

This really is a tropical paradise, walk from the sand in front of the resort straight into the water and drift with tide over the coral reef to see hundreds of different fish siwmming around you. Or relax in the pool when the tide is out.

As a slight caveat, we don't have ANY experience with other resorts anywhere. However, with that said, we had an absolute wonderful time here. Every staff member was friendly, accommodating, and just good people. There is a compulsory meal plan but, for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner, the food was honestly amazing and when broken down, affordable. The views are also amazing. To be able to look out from our room (Family Reef Bure 1) and see a blue ocean was something that we don't get to see from the US. Plenty of activities to do at the resort including being able to just go out and snorkel close to the shore and still experience a beautiful coral reef full of vibrant fish. The experience of getting to go out and snorkel around Manta Rays was also something I won't forget. I wanted to give a big vinaka to the staff including Lucia, Save, Mere, Noah, Gina, Dive Instructors Nieko, Charle, and Handre, and Snorkeling captains Pate and Jack. Overall, we would definitely come back here when visiting Fiji and will recommend it to anyone thinking of vacationing here.

Parmi les différents établissements où nous sommes restés, le Mantaray Island resort est de loin le meilleur. Une ambiance chaleureuse et détendue, une faune marine époustouflante, pleins d’activités différentes… Nous en repartons plus que ravis et nous recommandons fortement cet établissement au lieu d’un autre. Le personnel fait toute la différence et seront heureux de vous faire découvrir les Fidji.

Manta Ray island is such a magical place. There’s so many things that I can complement on: how convenient (& beautiful) it is to get to, the delicious food offered, how stunning the views are, and more importantly how amazing the staff is—the staff are definitely the heartbeat of the resort. A special acknowledgment for Mili, Exxon, and Save for making our trip memorable. Vinaka Vakalevu!

Beautiful place but definitely needs an uplift - c’mon owners the tree houses and adjacent drop toilets are pretty bad, shared areas definitely need a refresh, would definitely recommend to others if a bit of investment is evident

The staff is what makes this place great! everyone is so friendly, commited to your time there. The location is awesome with 360 fijian water views and the onep lace that offers mantaray swims. The swims however can be packed with people and it does feel odd to have 20 people in the water to look for 1 to 2 manta rays for about 30 mins to an hour. not sure if thats the experience you would want. Its also located in a place where its quite windy with current that when you snorkel it can be difficult but overall with the abundance of coral and fish its beautiful. I think the place can also do more on consveration and eco tourism esp saw tons of coral bleacing and destruction and even i had a hard time with my fins with the current to not hit the coral at the shallower end. Things like suggesting ot use reef safe only sun screen, some dos and dont about the coral to protect can help. another thing to note is everything here is an add on in terms of $$, your meal plan only includes so much and if you want to eat at differnt ime or want something else, its extra money, the snorkels and dives are extra money etc. that said id definitely stay here again and overall fiji is great.

We booked a beach front villa, absolutely beautiful. Even the lesser rooms looked amazing and only steps away from the beach. Can’t rate the staff highly enough. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Definitely go back again.

The beach villas were amazing, especially the outdoor shower. It was quite humid so towels and such were a little mildewed but that is expected in remote tropical locations. The only thing i did not appreciate at this resort was that there was a mandatory expensive food charge that was not mentioned when booking! You were forced to pay for 3 meals per day whether you wanted 3 meals a day or not at the restaurant. It would be much nicer and more fair if they had a la carte dining at the restaurant. Other than the dining issue it was a great small quiet resort with activities to do.
