2-Star Hotels in Mana Island

The main purpose of this trip was to do my open water PADI course, so I actually did not expect much. But this place is absolutely lovely. Not only was I welcomed with open arms, but the island itself was extremely beautiful. My dive instructor, Bailey Wheetman, is one of the best teachers I’ve ever had and I felt super safe while diving with him. He took care of me and made sure that I am a professional before I leave this place. The staff, the locals, the backpackers are just amazing and take special care for solo travelers. I am so happy and grateful for this authentic experience and I would definitely recommend this place !

Absolutely the best experience. The service is phenomenal. Everyone on the staff deserves kudos for making it the perfect experience. Asa, Rocky, Veka, Levenia, Sammy, Freddy, Philly all worked hard to make everything perfect. So some specifics: Let's start with what some people have said is a problem. I disagree. This is a remote island with rooms right on the cost. The bathroom is open-air and connects outdoors. Yes, things are weathered. Yes, you may share a bathroom with a gecko. None of those things should discourage you. That is the reason you go to a resort like this and don't stay at the large chain where every room is exactly the same. Everything here is clean as can be! The rooms opening up to the outdoors is perfect for taking in the beauty of the island. If you are afraid someone will look into your room, close the blinds, but there are only five rooms, no one is looking! Now what makes it special. the staff will all know your name. We celebrated our anniversary and Asa researched the color associated with that anniversary and set up a special table overlooking the ocean decked out with the color. Every day they would take us to a different place to snorkel, have lunch on a sandbar or private island, and set up a private beach to watch the sunset. Have a traditional Kava ceremony. It was all perfect and we felt like family. Vinaka.
