A great place to stay and go diving in Yap
The Manta Ray Bay Resort is my place to stay when I visit Yap. The staff are professional, friendly and will help you have a wonderful stay. The rooms are spacious, clean and include a mini-refrigerator. Meals are served on a wooden 3-deck Indonesian cargo ship over 100 years old that gives you a great views of the harbor. The food is delicious (especially their homemade banana bread); and they...

An excellent place to stay, and great snorkeling services. Loved the meals. Room was tidy and well maintained. Pool was perfect.
Unforgetable experience – could not be better
Hotel offers everything needed, staff is super-friendly, diving crew is well organized and helpful. We were there at Yap day - a unique possibility to get to know some of the old culture, very relaxing.
Wonderful surprise
A beautiful resort made wonderful by the staff. This is a small island and this resort is unique with a great dive staff and facility. Weather unfortunately wasn’t the best our week we were there, but we would definitely go back and are planning to do so. The diving was amazing irregardless of the weather.

Everyone...

We just couldn't part with them, they're too...

Hotel and Dive Op Doing Quite Well
I was very impressed how well Manta Ray Bay Resort and its Yap Divers affiliate weathered the Covid shutdown storm. Yap was basically closed off from the world for 2 1/2 years due to Covid travel restrictions before beginning to re-open in mid-late 2022. I had been to Yap more than 20 years ago, but never managed to make it back due to vacation limitations etc. I now have greater...
