We stayed at Manuia Beach 30 years ago, and returned for our 30th Wedding Anniversary. The new OTB restaurant was popular, and dinner bookings were necessary. Continental breakfast included, cooked breakfast available also. Poolside dining for lunch available. Several other dining options available within walking distance. In House tours and transport to market. Grounds maintained every day. Always seating around the pool area. Adults only hotel (over 16 age cut off) so very relaxed and quiet while we were there. Thank you Ross and all your lovely folks who took care of us so well.

Manuia Beach Resort is the best resort! We will not stay anywhere else when visiting Raro. The staff are the best and provide friendly excellent service. The resort itself is absolutely breathtaking with white sand all around the resort and an infinity pool overlooking the crystal clear lagoon/ocean. Cannot rate Manuia any higher!!

The Manuia Resort is a fantastic place to stay. The staff are really friendly and helpful - nothing seems too much trouble. It's quiet and has no children, a plus for me. Beautiful infinity pool, snorkels and kayaks to borrow, comfy loungers to enjoy the sun or shade on the beach or around the pool. Great restaurant with a delicious range of dishes though it is expensive. Continental and cooked breakfast in the beachside restaurant was included in our clean, gorgeous room's price. The huge plus though is the location. Amazing beachfront units with palms and lush gardens from which we enjoyed the ocean and pool view as well as the passing whales. A few more and cheaper bar snack-style food offerings would make it pretty much perfect. Not the cheapest place I've stayed but I would go back in a heartbeat.
