This is a really unique place and one you have to experience but first let me manage your expectations, it's not a 5 star, chain/branded resort that applies the same principles all over the world, this is bespoke service in a very remote resort which is a little freyed round the edges. - fantastic staff who will go well beyond...

Excellent place to stay. Very nice with a pool and good food. The all-inclusive package is good, but do know that you won't get any fancy alcohol on it. They didn't even have gin when we were there, but it was end of season! None the less, AWESOME place. Beautiful diving and snorkeling. Excellent dive equipment and staff. Would definitely... More

The resort and our stay was very relaxing. The sea front villas in my opinion are well worth the extra money. We had travelled to Pemba for the diving and were not terribky impressed given the distance and effort to get there. We dove only in the mornings, and saw mostly small stuff. Perhaps we have been spoiled by the... More

We will be coming back to Manta. Five days was definitely not enough. What I like most about Manta is that it is not a luxury resort plunked down on a beautiful tropical island. It is a luxury resort that grew out of a beautiful tropical island. Everything...from the lodge, to the villas, to the beach bar and the umbrellas...was... More

We had a wonderful stay after a pretty full-on three weeks in Tanzania. We had just come from a research centre in the Usambara Mountains, so what we really needed was some relaxation, luxury and some great food. We got all that and more, everything was taken care of with the staff all incredibly friendly. The snorkelling from the beach... More

We have just returned from a week in paradise and found that we didn't want to leave. Manta is not the slickest or most luxurious place to stay (in fact the term 'Resort' could be a bit misleading) but it's one of the most authentic, welcoming and naturally beautiful places I have ever had the pleasure of staying. When you... More

We spent 8 days here in February and we could have stayed here for 2 months and still not have had enough. I couldn't agree more with the previous posts, this is a four star hotel in a five star experience. The staff are extremely friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The food is amazing with freshly caught seafood... More

We had a wonderful week at the Manta resort. Everything was perfect! The staff were very nice and helpful, our beachfront villa a dream and the food was really delicious! My husband did a lot of diving and he said that the dive center was very good too, nice and competent staff and good equipment. I am sure we will... More

We stayed at the Manta for our honeymoon in August. My husband is a diver and tagged a week on Pemba after a two week safari. Our whole jpurney was an amazing adventure, but our favorite part was Pemba and Manta. The place is literally at the end of the world, remote and incredibly beautiful. The villas were rustic, yet...
