Yet again we enjoyed a fantastic 10 days in Tobago. The diving as always was superb, we saw mantas, moray eels, nurse sharks, lobsters, loads of fish, the beautiful Japanese Gardens, did a wreck dive. Such a fantastic crew of people that run the centre, from sexy Sean the owner, Kester the great, Silton the best Boat Captain ever, Camnee... more

My wife and I stayed two nights at the Manta in June 2009. The most impressive part was the help we received from Vidya in actually getting to and from the Manta (transport, accommodation), and the comfort of our stay once there. The Manta is not a place for people who want 5 star everything, but if you want comfortable... more

This review is of the hotel only. The diving operation associated with the hotel deserves its own tome. Clyde - proprietor of the hotel, head of the family and most gracious and generous host - really makes the atmosphere of this hotel. He is cool, laid back and extremely approachable. The hotel rooms are basic but functional and quite roomy,... more

I spent 7 days at the Manta Lodge with friends and my 3 sons. The hotel was truly a "dive lodge" with clean, comfortable rooms, clean pool, plenty of food, and a cozy bar. When meeting the owner, Sean, on day one, he said this is not a hotel, but a home with 20 something rooms for guests. The week... more

I loved the Manta Lodge. I'd give it ten stars if i could. The staff were very friendly, and helpful. We never wanted for anything. The diving was fantastic. The only reason i gave the room 4 of 5 was because it didn't have a fridge, and if that is my only complaint, than that is saying something very positive... more

My stay at the Manta Lodge was wondeful. My finance and I stayed for 5 nights and did six dives with the resident dive shop, Tobago Dive Experience, and we enjoyed every minute of it . Firstly the hotel is located just opposite the beach, all the rooms have a wonderful seaview, and off course some of the most beautiful... more

I have to start out by saying two things. One, I am not related to the owners - I don't even know them - I have nothing to do with the hotel or dive operation. Two, I did not stay there - I only dove with the dive shop on site. However, due to the diving, I was there day... more

I was meant to go on this holiday with another diver who suggested location and accomodation then pulled out at the last minute. I went there not quite sure what to expect, as I didn't look at information on diving and Manta Lodge, the only thing I knew was that Speyside was famous for drift diving! I am so pleased... more

If you are looking for people who are real Trini's polite, funny, and caring... Manta Lodge is the place. I have been living in Trinidad since August of this year, and when I arrived at the Manta, it was a breath of fresh air. My room (and my parents room who I brought for my second trip) was clean, towels... more
