THE NOBU VIEW
The stay
Manda Bay offers island rooms, full-board dining and watersports on northern Manda Island.
Manda Bay offers an open-air island stay on northern Manda Island, with palm-thatched rooms, sea breezes and access by boat. Its design is deliberately simple: windows have curtains rather than glass or shutters, fans sit within mosquito nets, and verandas provide space to watch the water. There is no air conditioning.
Accommodation is divided into Beachfront, Palm and smaller Garden rooms. Two larger family options, rooms seven and eleven, are identified separately within those categories. The beach changes with the tide, so the seawall position should not be read as a promise of sand immediately outside at every hour.
Full board, a pool, non-motorised watersport equipment and shared lodge spaces support days on site. Nobu would consider Manda Bay for families and couples comfortable with a natural, open-air setting and boat logistics.
