Manta Raya Hotel - right on the beach

Close to beach

Very clean and confortable. Right at the beach and you practically have the beach and the pool for you alone as the Hotel is remote.

The hotel staff was friendly and helpful — they respond quickly to emails and inquiries.
I really enjoyed the food. I love their coconut shrimp and the way they prepare the tuna. The hotel had a family-like atmosphere, yet every guest had their own space. The location is fantastic!
I really like this hotel and will definitely return.

Freida, the dog. The food was simply delicious. My complements to the chef! Reta, the owner, was extremely accommodating. His staff were superb.

The Manta Raya Hotel is an absolute Gem! After reflecting on any of the negative comments/reviews we read prior to experiencing the hotel, it is clearly obvious to me that people have very different wants and needs from a vacation hotel. If you don't like a little adventure in your vacation journey, experiencing a bit of culture and are looking for a lively beach and nightlife atmosphere, this is not the place for you.
The journey to the hotel is slightly off the beaten path and has some bumps in the road which is also unique and interesting, to look into the lives of people living in this small community. If you are looking for a charming, quiet, relaxed atmosphere at a incredibly beautiful and unique location, this is the place for you.
The Hotel staff are warm, inviting and caring. Rooms are large and comfortable The food is wonderful. The complimentary breakfast of fruits, fresh baked breads, homemade jams, and fresh juice was ample for us. Any other traditional breakfast items outside what was complimentary were available to order at a very reasonable cost. Dinners each night were excellent, we chose the fresh fish dinner each night, Awesome! The beach is great! A nice beach for a small walk explore some rocks and tidal pools on either end and white sand with a swimmable light surf in the middle. Great sunsets.
- WIFI worked well
- Pool is great
- AC was great
- Everything was clean including facility bathrooms

We enjoyed the Manta Raya so much we came back later in our trip just to hang out and enjoy a lunch. Can't wait to comeback again soon.

A truly exceptional place if you're looking for peace and quiet! To us, the location was perfect: right on the beach, with a lovely stretch of ocean and literally no-one else around most of the time; though there are some other accommodations there, the beach still felt super private, and we mostly saw people at meal times (as Manta Raya also has the only restaurant in the immediate vicinity). Great food, with new dinner options daily, nice bar - with prices similar to upmarket restaurants in Mexican cities. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating. The whole place literally shuts down at 10 PM, so you can really recuperate from the bustle of pretty much everywhere else in Mexico (though it's not far from other, livelier beaches, towns, and some attractions, and the hotel can arrange transport - we, however, felt no need to use this option throughout our short stay).

The Food was delicious! Location quiet and beautiful! And the staff were all amazing and so kind!

Excellent location, a lot of tranquility, an unmatched atmosphere of peace and relaxation, delicious food, one of the best cuisines in the entire state. and above all the owner's attention to detail, thank you Reto and staff for all your attention

Salchi is a tiny little town with one of the most beautiful beaches ever! White sand, little shells, and somewhat swimmable. We pretty much had the beach to ourselves! The most people we saw was maybe 10?! It can have some big waves when the wind is up, but we managed to get some snorkeling in during the calm and saw some wonderful marine life.

The food is delicious! Every meal was fantastic! We were so spoiled!! Fernanda surprised us with dinner on the beach for a birthday celebration and WOW was it a wonderful meal, atmosphere and service.

The room had a spectacular view, was clean, comfortable (chairs and hammock on the deck overlooking the ocean), quiet and private.

What stands out the most was our hosts - the level of service provided to us, and every other guest, was impeccable. They made us feel welcome and like long time friends.

A hidden piece of paradise and highly recommend the Manta Raya!!

This small boutique hotel is incredible -- beautiful beach, nice staff, great food.

Excellent service!
Although had directions how to get there it was quite a challenge.They need to provide better and more visible signage! It was just an ok stay

Manta Ray is a wonderful hotel off the beaten track. The hotel has wonderful rooms with Seaview, the restaurant is excellent with an international cuisine. The owner and chef happily tries to accommodate specific wishes. The beach is right there, nice sand, water is warm. Also good swimming pool. The waives are relatively high and break close to the beach. No phone cover but excellent wifi. A number of other restaurants are nearby. The only thing I found negative was that this hotel does not allow paying directly via Hotels.com and does not accept credit cards. Payment either as cash or via PayPal with an extra surcharge. A deposit is needed to secure the booking. Given that there are many scammers out there, we found it stressful to pay in advance via PayPal to somenbody we do not know. I

Peaceful, with only the sound of the waves, birds & cicada at night- a welcome contrast to other towns w/loud music, vehicles, etc. The staff were exemplary- a very happy crew who are obviously treated with the respect they deserve by the kind owner, Reto. The food was sublime- varied & beautifully presented, many of the ingredients from the onsite garden. We hated to leave!

We loved the location on the beach, very relaxing away from the hustle and bustle. Amazing sunsets. Breakfast is simple, but enough and delicious. Food at the restaurant is absolutely amazing at reasonable price. Attentive staff, clean rooms. Beautiful beach, very clear clean water.

Great staff
