Couples can stay in a beachfront safari bure, families in a bigger beachfront safari bure or newly renovated dorm if you’re on a budget. If you’re really keen to swim with the Manta Rays then stay at Barefoot Manta Resort, (not to be confused with Mantaray Island Resort, which is a different place and a bit further away).
Barefoot Island – known traditionally as Drawaqa Island – lies in the Southern Yasawa Islands of Fiji. Barefoot Manta Resort has not just 1 stunning beach but 3! The dorms are on one side of the resort, with their own beach and the bures are on the opposite side with their very own beach as well.
Lots of fantastic things to do at Barefoot Manta, spectacular snorkelling and diving, nature walks, visits to nearby Fijian villages, kayaking, and the opportunity to swim with manta rays (between May & Oct) all await you! Barefoot Manta Resort is the closest resort to the famous manta ray feeding channel – with the mantas leisurely enjoying an abundance of food directly off Barefoot’s most northern beach.
Standard Dorm
Standard Dorms have bunk beds and are designed for up to 6 people sharing. Located on the beach a short walk from the dining room. Dorms are simply constructed in the traditional Fijian beach-hut style. Guests should bring their own towel or can hire one for FJ$7.

Deluxe Dorm
Deluxe Dorms have bunk beds designed for four people sharing and really well spaced out. These dorms have been recently renovated, are spacious and have huge louvre windows that let the natural sea breezes go through the room. This is as close to sleeping in a tent on the beach as you’ll get – except that you’ll be in a comfortable bed without getting sand in your pyjamas! Dorms have shared bathroom facilities with cool water showers. Bathroom block has also been renovated.
