Mantaray Island is beautiful and is a great option on the Yasawa Island groups to visit. You receive a lovely island welcome and cold drink..and especially thoughtful is the ice cold cloth they offer to cool you down apon arrival. The front beach bar area is great with soft seats and fans..Oh and one of the few Islands that don't have hoards of day trippers arriving to taking over everything until 4pm each day.. The staff are all lovley , especially Wise & the all the wonderful restaurant staff (except the dive staff who act very indifferent to guests unless your part of a dive group ) The food choices are the best we've had so far as you are given a choice rather than buffet style all the time. A beautiful rustic Eco resort, but once again like many other Yasawa resorts, sadly they are continually constructing new bures next to current ones, so it is very noisy when trying to relax in the day. It would be better to construct the bures for 2 weeks then allow guests for 2 weeks uninterrupted.. and build again in cycles.. as traveler's have paid alot of money to have a peaceful Island holiday..Roosters, dogs, birds etc are normal but constant construction is NOT! Also no swimming pool so difficult to cool off if you want a break from the ocean. Another important thing to mention is the island set up. 80 % of the bures huts are built on a steeper grade. They are very small & clean in a tree hut style and come with a large ceiling fan to keep cool and lots of windows for ventilation. There are a couple of larger jungle houses up very high by the restaurant. However we did appreciate all the paths having stone concrete to walk on rather than uneven sand loke many others. But the down sides are..no private bathroom in the bures or coffee making facilities in the room unless you pay for the beachfront rooms. You MUST walk appropriately 100 metres and then climb very steep stairs to a communal long drop toilet.. It is an ingenious idea along with all the seawater 💧 being desalination so the water is safe to drink, but we wouldn't recommend this island to anyone older than a very fit 60, due to the uneven ground and climbs to everything. The shower area is on the flat but the island is COLD WATER ONLY. The main reception and restaurant are also another 250 steps each way up an even steeper cliff face 🙄 You must do these walks several times a day to eat or pee. So if you are looking for a bit of luxury maybe try somewhere else. I'm told Volivoli is the place for 5 star in Fiji as the word RESORT is rather a long shot with the Yasawas unless your happy to pay $1000 per night, no exaggeration! However if you wish to dive or snorkel this place has it all 🐠🦈🐟.. teams of tropical fish off the beach (tho currents are often strong & unpredictable so only go out with incoming tides) They do have options for paid reef outings tho many other resorts offer these for free. However they do offer Kayaks for free and some other activities. All of the Yas
