MANTA RAY BAY HOTEL, YAP, MICRONESIA

 Hotel Room ©Hillary Bloom, 2005 |
Each guest room is named after a specific species of marine life. The theme starts with a carving on the door and key chain then continues throughout the room's interior. My room contained two beds with brightly-colored bedspreads decorated with the fairy basslet - a tiny purple and yellow fish that's found in many of the world's oceans. The bedspreads, shower curtain, and pictures on the wall all show the fairy basslet in various underwater scenes.
The room's chairs are made from natural rattan with tropical floral fabric cushions. Other furnishings include a handmade teak table, ornately carved wardrobes and leaf-patterned headboards, table lamps and reading lights above the beds. The guest rooms are configured with either two queen-sized beds or one king. All rooms use US voltage and include an adjustable ceiling fan, air conditioner, mini refrigerator, hairdryer, alarm clock, and TV with a VCR for in-room movie viewing (a selection of rental videos are available at the front desk).

The sink area is separate from the shower and toilet and is furnished with white bath sheets, hand towels and wash cloths. Complimentary amenities consist of shampoo, conditioner, body powder, and Rai-shaped hand soap.
Ocean-view rooms have a private balcony that is great for watching the sunset over the lagoon. First-floor ocean-view rooms have plunge pools that hotel owner Bill Acker is rebuilding after damage caused by the last typhoon.
Internet access is available at a very reasonable rate on the computer located in the hotel lobby. The hotel offers wake-up service that comes with complimentary coffee or tea. With advanced booking, you can buy a meal plan (recommended).
