Best place in Colonia, stayed on Yap for a month. And had a blast at Manta Ray, the staff is really service minded, they remember your name always takes the time to talk to you and help out with any problem their might be. Attached to the resort they have a spa, diveshop, restaurant and a bar. The restaurant and... More

Fantastic boutique hotel and restaurant-bar. Very comfortable, well appointed and serviced rooms. Floating restaurant and bar is an experience on its own. Pool is a delight. The staff are all wonderful, friendly and helpful. You feel like its a stay with family, yet definitely not intrusive. Colonia, Yap is a beautiful quiet little town and the Yapese people are traditional... More

We went to Palau first then over to Yap to Manta Ray Bay. We were in room 301 with the jacuzzi on the roof. Everything about Manta went so....smooth. I was nervous at first when we were scheduled to dive at 8:30 am after flying from Palau and getting to our room at 5 am. We went to the dive... More

After spending time in Pohnpei & Chuuk, Manta Ray Bay was another level of service, luxury & friendship. The water front room was awesome with our own private fresh water pool & the... More

If you are a scuba diver and you want one of the best diving experiences of your life, I highly recommend Manta Ray Bay Resort on the island of Yap in Micronesia. I flew there from California (enduring twenty-plus hours of air travel each way) and would do it again in a heartbeat. The owner, Bill Acker, his wife Patricia,... More

Highly recommend the warm Pacific waters with lots of friendly Mantas to see. And the best dive resort I've ever had a pleasure to stay. Everything works with a professional but friendly and personal touch. Great all-round quality starting from rooms, dive masters, boats, food, beer ending to island beauty and stunning dives, and all in-between. Don't miss (I am... More

I loved Yap! The resort is not very big but nice comfy rooms. The dive center is in the resort which makes it very convenient. They leave app 8.30 in the morning and you are back app 1.30 for lunch. You do 2 dives and in between you can get cake and hot tea. Very nice is you are cold... More

What an excellent resort. The accommodation is good. There was no safe in our room when we arrived, and within five minutes of telling the front desk, a man and a safe arrived. Excellent service. The room was cleaned thoroughly, the cleaners were helpful in terms of when they cleaned, all good news. The airport transfer, bearing in mind the... More
