Questions about The Lounge
Is The Lounge included in resort meal plans?
Inclusion depends on the board basis you book — full-board (FB) and all-inclusive (AI) packages at The Manta Resort cover the main resort restaurants, while specialty venues like The Lounge sometimes carry a per-cover supplement or sit on a paid dine-around credit.

Reserve at The Lounge
Specialty restaurants at The Manta Resort are typically reserved in-resort once you check in, but Resortlife can flag preferences (theme nights, chef's table, private dining) with the resort before arrival when you book your stay through us.
