“A place in paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 21, 2012 via mobile

We have been there ten times - all the way from Germany. Everything is perfect and we will be back very soon. We love this beach location between Miami Beach and Fort Lauderdale. The FLL-Airport is just ten minutes away but you can't hear it. The beds are great. We always sleep like babies. Two new flatscreen TV's in the one bedroom appartements are fantastic. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

“I'll always come back”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 15, 2012

Manta Ray Inn is a second home for us. We can travel the world, but we have to save room in our vacation schedule to spend time on this beach, hanging out in the wonderfully laid back style the Bouchers have created. The apartments are so clean you could eat off the floor, and yet there's nothing stuffy or fussy about the atmosphere. You are welcome to be yourself here.

Room Tip: The pool side apartment has great wi-fi reception.

“Second visit to this location.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 11, 2012

We stayed at the Manta Ray Inn for the second time last April. This time for 10 days.
The location is unbelievably good.....a few minutes walk from the Broad Walk where we got our morning exercise, and right on the beach. We were with some of our kids this time and so we used the outdoor tables and BBQ for some meals so that we could all eat together.
Parking is included as is a morning newspaper and a free bag of coffee for the coffee maker.
Our rooms were cosy, bright and kept very clean.
We would not hesitate to return as the Manta Ray has everything we need for a Florida holiday.

Room Tip: Lower floor unless you are able to do the stairs.

“Wonderful family environment at the Manta Ray Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 4, 2012

My Family and I have stayed at the Manta Ray Inn for the last few years and will look forward to another year in 2013 ! The oceanfront location, personal friendly service, and family atmosphere make staying at this beachfront Inn a vacation we all look forward to. I would not hesitate to recommend the Manta Ray Inn to anybody visiting South Florida
