Tobago is a beautiful little island, and the diving right by Manta Lodge is terrific. I needed to unwind from the rush of life and fell into a welcoming family with Sean, his dad, Clyde, (who gave me a lift to the airport, and thanks for the doubles on the way), the lovely Kathleen, and all the staff. The divemaster... More

This was our second trip to Tobago for scuba diving. This time, my wife and I wanted to spend some of our time staying in Speyside to experience the dives there. We selected Manta Lodge and Tobago Dive Experience. On our first trip to Tobago, we spent almost all of time in the Crown Point Area and on this trip... More

Whether you're a diver or not the Manta Lodge is the perfect break. Took a 3-day weekend for myself and finished up my PADI certification with Sean Robinson, local dive guru and someone who I deeply respect. Privileged to have trained with him and his extremely professional staff. Food was fresh from the sea (I know this because I caught... More

Great spot, right on the beach. Good dive shop, knowledgeable staff. It's an older property but great hospitality and staff. The dive master was flexible and low stress which is why you want or a great experience. Would come again.

Where else can you kick off your shoes and become part of the family without the hassle or expense of owning your own villa? Whether its diving or fishing or cooking your own lobster... More

My girlfriend and I showed up sometime in the afternoon at Manta Lodge with no reservations anywhere. We decided to stop and ask if there was any availability. We were instantly befriended by Kathleen who made us feel extremely welcome, and sure enough, showed us a lovely room with a patio looking out into the bay and little tobago island.... More

I had a wonderful time in Speyside staying at the Manta Lodge! I travel often for work but rarely for pleasure. Every place I go looks just like a Hilton or a Holiday Inn and I wanted a trip to a place that retained some of its uniqueness. When things fell into place for a short vacation, and I have... More

Just spent 5 days diving at Manta Lodge in Speyside. Considering how tired and stressed most travelers are upon arrival in the Caribbean, you can't ask for a better place to transition from the fast paced frozen north - to laid back Tobago. The staff seems to understand this and made it very easy to relax, slow down and get... More
