We first stayed at Manta Ray Inn a couple years ago. I knew when we drove up and I saw the white beach and the palm trees and the blue Atlantic that I had found my Florida beach home.
We are going back again this winter for the third time. Everything is pleasing--the room, the bed, the view from the balcony, the big cruise ships sailing by. The Bouchers are generous innkeepers and host frequent get-togethers on the patio. Jerry keeps everything clean and tidy. And the short walk to the Broadwalk with its diverse crowd there is a plus.

We stayed for 3 nights & it was wonderful. Clean apartment facing the ocean & right on the beach. You can't get better than that. Employees were all so friendly & helpful. 3 nights was not long enough & next time, hoping to stay a week! Thank you so much!!

The location was wonderful, the rooms clean and bright, and the staff was very friendly. The Inn is comfortable enough for you to just sit back and enjoy the views. We will definitely be back and recommend this place highly.

Normally I wouldn't write a review in fear of giving away a best kept secret but Manta Ray is rated #1 so it is no secret. A well deserved rating at that !! We arrived in the pouring rain. We were greeted like we just got home. Sympathetic that we were soaked & concerned we would be hungry. So not only were we handed our room key but a selection of menus for delivery. Our room was so sweet, very clean & tidy.The sea was right out our windows no matter where we looked. Every bit of the property was clean & tidy as well. The location was perfect, it is close enough to the Broadwalk yet out of the mainstream. We did not want to leave. I will certainly be planning my next vacation stay to be at Manta Ray. It's more than just location, its the sincere kindness of the Bouchers that takes it to the next level. An absolute warm & wonderful welcome. Thank you so much for our new home away from home.
