Manduna Resort

Direct access to the nice sandy beach

First, water pressure for shower is a big problem for full occupancy, water stops in the middle of my shower and won’t resume until the rest of the guest in is done showering. But the worse problem was the staff attitude. The check-in manager and kitchen manager were unfriendly almost unwelcoming. Instead of coming to us in person to collect ID, they whatsapp me to do their job, and we are big group, and most of the time always in the resort swimming or hanging by the restaurant, when they see me in person on the last night I told them to collect per room instead since everyone is here, they RAISED their voice at me saying they asked twice but not given when it was all done via whatsapp. They see us everyday in person but never asked in person until that very last night. Very unprofessional and rude. Also, the discrimination in treatment made me uncomfortable. Kitchen chef was not ready to serve the breakfast at 7 because they need to prepare at 5am for another guest who is gone for surfing but when I request for breakfast to be on time at 7 since I need to leave for my diving trip it was refused saying it was troublesome which does not make sense at all. The foreigner guest was also attended to first when I was clearly there first, even making that other guest uncomfortable who kindly let me be served first.

It was like staying at the owner’s homeBeing treated like a king! Hang out with the owner and sonThey were great and amazing hosts Amazing! Great guests and foodLoved the ice bath

The view is breathtaking, it’s serene and peaceful experience. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The internet connection is reliable for online meetings. Plus, the food is delicious.

Beautifully located at a wonderful beach (sunset side), pretty rooms, great pool, Eduardo (owner) gave good help/recommendation for surfing

Restaurant (one waitress almost didn't speak English so Communication was hard, lots of misunderstandings, also breakfast didn't have consistency (sometimes bad, sometimes alright))

What a wonderful experience! From the moment I arrived and Elias met me at the ferry I knew I had landed in paradise. Upon arriving at Manduna I felt immediately welcomed and in good hands. I'd had a long journey the previous day and immediately they took care of me, organising lunch and a hot coffee whilst I sat back and admired the view. The location is stunning! Essentially your own private beach. The room was comfortable, clean and the bed was MASSIVE. I had a gorgeous view of the beach from my balcony and I lay on the couch and read in the afternoons admiring the vista. I extended to stay a week and spent my time paddle boarding, swimming, reading, having some of THE BEST massages I've ever had, sipping beers and chatting to the staff. Eduardo, Lanna and their team have created a paradise and I will definitely be back.

Small but very well equipped and friendly

Food was a little repetitive. A little too much fish. But nicely presented.

The staff is sooo great. My god, it's such a great team! They work extremely hard to give you the best experience you can have. And they have fun doing so, it's beautiful to see. Everything is great really, but the staff is most exceptional.

The cost is quite high.. for us, we went a lot over budget these 3 nights we stayed, but we would still do it again if we could.

Accomodation was superb, staff were really friendly, food was tasty but basic , views awesome

Beautiful beach site, tasteful design and decor, quiet, very friendly staff and owner.

Away from the rest of the resort but still close enough to everything else

Great staff, location and amazing experience for our family

There is nothing I’d suggest I didn’t like, everything was so positive, the only criticisms are almost not worth mentioning there were so few
