Really good Culinary Experience

During my stay, I was blown away by every meal served at Matangi. Each morning, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast buffet complemented by a menu that allowed us to select our lunches and dinners ahead of time. The consistent quality and flavor of the dishes were impressive. I especially loved the fresh-baked breads and cookies available throughout the day, a good touch that made every mealtime special.

Stunning Accommodations

I stayed in one of the beachfront bures, and it was an absolute dream. Just a short distance from the beach, it offered unparalleled views of the water and the surrounding scenery. The comfortable bed and crisp white linens were perfect for restful nights, and the outdoor shower was a refreshing and unique feature that added to the overall experience.

Relaxing Spa Services

One of my favorite experiences was indulging in a couples massage at the island's spa. The atmosphere was serene, and the treatment left us feeling rejuvenated and completely relaxed. This was a perfect way to unwind after a day of snorkeling and hiking. I highly recommend taking advantage of the spa services, as they were superb.

Adventure and Exploration

I loved the array of activities available on the island. The daily snorkeling excursions were a standout for me—I was amazed by the vibrant marine life just a short distance from shore. There were also plenty of opportunities for hiking, and I enjoyed a nice trek around the island, taking in amazing views and discovering wildlife along the way.

Our stay at Matangi Resort was nothing short of magical! The atmosphere was incredibly serene, and I can't rave enough about the staff who treated us like family from the moment we arrived. The snorkeling was absolutely stunning, especially with the vibrant coral reefs and interesting marine life. However, the accessibility to some snorkeling spots was a bit tricky because of the tides. All in all, the experience was worth every penny, and I can't wait to return!

Our stay at the resort was a mixed bag. While the staff was incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel like family from the moment we arrived, the dining experience and attention to detail in our room left something to be desired. The diving facilities are great with fantastic reefs but could benefit from better protection measures. Overall, the resort offers a beautiful setting, but it does come at a high price for the overall value received.
