Selecting your sanctuary at The Manta Resort is the first step in crafting your perfect Pemba Island escape. The resort offers a spectrum of accommodations, each designed to harmonize with its natural surroundings while providing a unique perspective on barefoot luxury. From rooms tucked away in lush gardens to villas perched over the ocean, your choice defines your connection to this pristine environment.
Standard & Superior Garden Rooms: Simplicity in Nature
Tucked into the vibrant tropical greenery, the Garden Rooms offer a peaceful retreat for those who value stillness and simplicity. Built with local materials like palm-thatched ceilings and whitewashed walls, these airy spaces are designed for cool comfort and natural ventilation. The custom-built EveningBreeze cooling system provides a gentle stream of cooled air over the bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep without the noise of traditional air conditioning. With a king-sized bed, an en-suite bathroom, and a shaded veranda, these rooms are ideal for solo travelers or couples seeking a tranquil, grounded experience just a short stroll from the beach.
The Seafront Villas: Where the Ocean Meets Your Deck
For uninterrupted views of the turquoise Pemba Channel, the Seafront Villas are the epitome of coastal serenity. These villas are set directly on the coastline, featuring an open-plan design with a four-poster king bed and floor-to-ceiling wooden shutters that open onto a spacious private veranda. Here, you can lounge and soak in the sun with nothing between you and the sea breeze. Equipped with the same innovative EveningBreeze system and crafted with natural materials, these villas offer intimate luxury for couples, perfectly positioned for both privacy and easy access to the main lodge.
The Oceanview Villas: Panoramic Luxury for Groups
