Manda Bay is the perfect escape for families, honeymooners, and couples looking for the ultimate ‘no shoes, no news’ experience and is renowned for its wonderfully relaxed atmosphere with a variety of activities on offer.
There are 16 luxurious cottages (11 beachfront and 5 sea view) flawlessly designed in keeping with the local landscape. Nine of the rooms are set right along the seafront with the other rooms set in-between and slightly behind. Each cottage has a large ceiling fan, refreshing showers inside the en-suite bathrooms, and private verandahs.
There are 11 beachfront rooms that are situated right on the seawall and are therefore closest to the water and beach when it comes out at low tide. Large open rooms with 7ft beds, either twin or Kingsize, and room for one or two extra beds for children if required. Room 11 is an extra-large villa able to accommodate three extra beds. There is a dressing table, information booklet, charging plugs (220 volts – 3 pin), hairdryer, drinking water, toiletries in the bathroom, two sets of towels per person, beach towels, basket for shell collecting and beach combing, twin washbasins, W/C, and walk-in shower.
There are five Palm rooms set slightly further back from the seawall on higher ground, behind the beachfront rooms. Room 7 is a family cottage with an extra room and bathroom able to accommodate up to three children. The rooms are cool and airy with a sea breeze and are made up of 7ft beds, either twin or Kingsize, and room for one or two extra beds for children if required. There is a dressing table, information booklet, charging plugs (220 volts – 3 pin), hairdryer, drinking water, toiletries in the bathroom, two sets of towels per person, beach towels, basket for shell collecting and beach combing, twin washbasins, W/C, and walk-in shower.
There is something for everyone at Manda Bay. One can enjoy the comforts and beautiful setting, in addition to activities on offer which include relaxing by the water or indulging in a massage. If you are feeling energetic, there are water sports such as deep-sea fishing in search of the Marlin and Sailfish, windsurfing, water skiing, and scuba diving, to name a few. Cultural visits and dhow safaris are also available. There is also a games room overlooking the sea, complete with a pool table, darts, and table tennis.
Welcome to this water sports paradise. The setting is in a sheltered mangrove creek, and the calm waters here are ideal for water skiing. Guests can ski at high tide, yet just outside the creek, there is generally enough breeze for sailing, wind-surfing, and kite-surfing. Windsurfing instruction is also available for beginners.
Manda has four ski boats and a large selection of skis and other equipment, including a six-man ocean rider (Banana), an air chair, super-screamers (doughnuts), and knee and wake boards. Likewise, instruction is available for beginner skiers. The resort is closed from mid-April to mid-July.
