Manta Resort: picture gallery


Manta Resort is situated on the north coast of Pemba Island and gets a great view of the sunset.
Here you can unwind on the pristine white sandy beach...
... whilst watching the local fishermen taking their boats out to sea.
The main area is set amidst tropical gardens...
... and is an open-sided structure with an exotic feel.
Sit outside with panoramic views of the sea ...
... surrounded by flowering bougainvillea...
... and enjoy a refreshing drink from the bar.
There are a number of different room types ..
... different in their size and level of luxury ...
...but all are spacious, light and airy.
The large Seafront Villas are our favourite, with plunge pools and ocean views
Set back in the gardens, there are standard and superior garden rooms...
Both have small private terraces with comfortable cushioned baraza style loungers ...
... providing a restful spot to relax during the heat of the day.
The underwater room - anchored 250 meters offshore - is the newest addition to Manta Resort.
It has three storeys and the top deck is perfect for sunbathing by day and stargazing at night.
The central deck has a u-shaped sofa and table, ...
... from here you can enjoy spectacular sunsets.
However what will really take your breath away is the 360-degree underwater views in the bedroom.
... where the neighbours are waiting to greet you.
Back on land, there's a lovely swimming pool overlooking the ocean...
... which is surrounded by a number of shaded loungers.
Guests at the Manta Resort stay on a Full Board basis
food is varied, fresh and plentiful.
Enjoy one of the all inclusive cocktails from the beach bar...
... which has been designed in a similar style to the rest of the Manta Resort.
Finish off your day with a sunset cruise...
... in a traditional ngalawa sailing boat...
... and watch the sunset over the stunning Vumawimbi beach.
