Overall a nice experience! ##### Erika Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samuel 12 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had such a fantastic stay at Mantaray Island Resort – we’d go back in a heartbeat. Our beachfront accommodation was perfect, the food was tasty, and the excursions and activities were amazing. We celebrated a birthday while we were there and really appreciated the extra touches – the decorated room and the restaurant serenade. A highlight was visiting the local village – an unforgettable experience. One evening, we had a private beachfront dinner with excellent service from Pita, which was a real treat. We wouldn’t think twice about staying here again on another Fijian Yasawa Islands adventure. ##### Samuel Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 3 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay. This resort mostly caters to the under 35 group. We had a bungalow in a quiet area away from the dorms, right on the beach. You could snorkel from your room or take a short boat trip to snorkel other areas and see manta rays. Meals are in addition to the room cost-set fee per person per day. The food was really good and the chef made us an anniversary cake that was divine. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Troy 13 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The resort is fantastic if you are looking for a quiet on the beach stay. If you want luxurious accommodations this is not the place but it is very nice and comfortable for us. Walked out the front door to the ocean and reef snorkeling right there. Awesome. ##### Troy Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicolette 8 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was such a lovely relaxed but well presented resort. The coral reef snorkling is fanrastic from the beach. The staff were lovely the food was Its a perfect 3 star resort, would highly reccomend for a low key relaxed holiday. ##### Nicolette Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sameera 18 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Sameera Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy 31 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The snorkeling directly in front of this resorts beach front is great! ##### Nancy Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard 13 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We travelled with two teenage boys. We all had a great time. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. Staff were greeting each of our family members from the first day. Diving was great. Snorkling from the beach in front of the resort was amazing. Nice coral full of life. Food was good as well. We had a beach villa. It was excellent and close to the main area of the resort. ##### Richard Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Theodore 6 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A must if you’re island hopping through the Yasawa Best coral reefs I’ve seen. The service was decent, everyone was very kind and hospitable. Some times you have be a little persistent if there’s a certain activity you want to do, mostly due to staffing issues I think. I think a good way to fix this is to have the front office get if WhatsApp to communicate with guests better. Food was mediocre to good. The only fish they served was Waloo which can be harsh on the digestive tract for some people. ![You can substitute pizza for lunch or dinner. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b94811b4-cabd-47a7-9f38-08467d3e7d07-1746564293082.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![From sunset beach. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bdb87f86-3993-4ac4-ae1c-907c1e818431-1746564291890.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Villa bathrooms were really cool](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c52a27ff-485e-4425-b4e7-7afa2f3f8993-1746564295735.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Theodore Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Judith 26 Aug 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Setting was lovely and staff were great.

Offers beautiful ocean-front stays, a lovely walkable beach, and easy access to snorkeling and diving. Food is delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful.

There were always activities on offer, but you could also just lay in a hammock for hours. The snorkelling just steps from our bure was amazing, the best I’ve ever experienced. The staff were so friendly and kind. ##### Erin Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 1 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/66800EF4ACED8DDD8FF4D67F2CABAC2FB16BE4311698811771674.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 30 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Absolutely brilliant.

They didn’t have water the day before we arrived so they were working hard on it while there and got it going. Owner was easy to talk with. Snorkeling was amazing, rained lots but had lots of fun! ##### William ### 8/10 Good #### Irma 13 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property was clean and well maintained. The staff were excellent and very eager to please. We hired snorkelling gear from the dive hut and found it to be below standard. The purge valve was clogged with sand and the clasp in my mask was absent. Otherwise, everything was great! ##### Irma Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Zara 23 Oct 2024 Meal times are very chaotic. Waited over am hour for my breakfast (I was the very last person served food despite getting to breakfast at a reasonable time) and almost missed the boat for my morning tour as a result. Very few amenities/ activities. Glad we only stayed one night as not a lot to do at the resort. ##### Zara Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Miquel 1 Apr 2023 Liked: Staff & service I liked that we had a direct view of the beach/ocean from our room. Pictures on the website needs to be updated. The food was not that great. ##### Miquel Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Tina 3 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I cannot say enough good things about my time at this resort. It definitely exceeded all of my expectations. The location is beautiful, the meals were good, the room (beachfront villa) was amazing and the staff were wonderful. The ONLY word of advice I have is to make sure you bring a few between meal snacks with you. There are no options to grab a little something to snack on after hours of snorkeling…. IF you are actually willing to get out of the water. I had tears when it came time to leave. There is no question about going back. All ready planning my next trip. ##### Tina Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel 27 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had an amazing week at Manta Ray Island Resort. The best thing about my experience was the Fijian people and Sunny. The Fijians who work there are some of the kindest, happy and most genuine humans I’ve met. My room was very comfortable. There was so many things to do there. If I wasn’t snorkeling I was walking on the beach, paddling on a stand up, fishing from the beach or offshore. The waters off the beach were incredible with sea life. I got dive certified there, and I highly recommend all the individuals as instructors and or dive buddies, especially Wise. I am looking forward to returning soon. My only constructive criticism is that I think the proteins tended to be overcooked…fish, chicken and beef. Otherwise, the food was good. Also, I think the resort should make all visitors aware before their trip that the resort doesn’t take any currency other than Fiji dollars. The paddleboards need some fins. I highly recommend this resort. ##### Daniel Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2024
