Activities at the Coast of Oaxaca

For those looking to do more than just read a book, enjoy the beach, or unwind from daily stress, we offer a variety of activities to shake up your routine. You can explore stunning walks and hikes along nearly empty beaches, visit the incredible botanical garden at Hagia Sofia, go horseback riding along Cuatunalco Beach, or check out the vibrant Monday market in Pochutla. Thanks to our convenient location, it’s easy to head west to the charming villages of Mazunte, Zipolite, and San Agustinillo, with a visit to the La Ventanilla lagoon along the way—home to crocodiles, iguanas, and a wide range of birds. Alternatively, you can explore Huatulco, the tourist hub to the east. Both destinations are just a 45 to 60-minute drive from Salchi

Manta Raya featured in the New York Times

Perched above the serene shores of Salchi Beach, along Oaxaca’s Costa Chica and just 25 minutes from Huatulco Airport, Manta Raya Hotel is a hidden sanctuary of seven rooms — each one an invitation to rest and reconnect with self and nature. Since opening its doors in 2011, this boutique hotel has woven together the region’s soul with a spirit of hospitality that honors its people, tradition, simplicity, and beauty. Swaying palapas, private terraces hammocks, and a generous swimming pool mirroring the vast Pacific sky. At the heart of Manta Raya is its culinary artistry — a daily menu inspired by the land and sea, where ancestral traditions meet contemporary creativity. The hotel offers a fusion of international cuisine, classic Mexican dishes, and the world-renowned flavors of Oaxacan gastronomy. Each plate is a sensorial journey, thoughtfully crafted with fresh, local ingredients that celebrate the richness of the region and the imagination of the chef.

The Facilities

In addition to the hotel, Manta Raya boasts a beachfront restaurant under a cozy palapa, where a gentle ocean breeze keeps things cool. We offer a variety of seafood, including shrimp, tuna, and snapper, as well as top-quality cuts from our local butcher. We take great pride in the fact that everything—our salsas, dressings, breads, jams, desserts, and more—is homemade by our talented cooks. To beat the heat, head over to the "P89" bar, where you'll find a selection of Mexican beers, along with a range of craft and imported brews. Our full bar features a wide variety of cocktails (including jamaizcal, margaritas, and piña coladas), liquors, and an extensive selection of mezcal made from over 30 types of agave, such as espadín, tobalá, and madrecuixe. And last but not least, we have a generously sized pool—perfect for a refreshing swim when the ocean gets a bit too rough.

Mi lugar preferido Es el lugar para desconectarte de la rutina y encontrarte contigo mismo y tu pareja, el hospedaje, alimentos y servicio como siempre es de primera calidad. La ubicación es de fácil acceso, las habitaciones tienen una vista increíble hacia el mar, es un hotel para relajarse, bastante tranquilo y no cuenta con televisores que eso es una maravilla y muy limpio

Alles, was man braucht Unser Aufenthalt im Manta Raya hat uns wieder absolut begeistert: Ein einsamer Strand mit Liegen im Schatten, alle Seiten des Pazifiks, ein wunderbarer Pool, bestes und abwechslungsreiches Essen im Restaurant, klimatisierte weiträumige Zimmer und vor allem ein sehr freundliches und kompetentes Team. Vielen lieben Dank für die so erholsame Zeit, die keine Wünsche unerfüllt gelassen hat. Wir freuen uns schon auf unseren nächsten Besuch.

A Hidden Gem of Peace, Beauty, and Heartfelt Hospitality As always, Manta Raya brings me an incredible sense of peace and restoration. This time, my co-host Tracie Collins and I had the joy of bringing a group of amazing women to this special place for our Black Blossom Retreat. Everything—from the warm and attentive staff, the breathtaking beach, the stunning scenery, to sweet Frida the dog—was just perfect. The highlight for me was the creative, nourishing meals and being able to share this slice of paradise with our group. Thank you, Reto and the entire Manta team, for once again creating such a magical and memorable experience. If you're visiting this part of Mexico, don’t miss this serene and soulful gem. Highly recommend!

Paradise Found Manta Raya is a gorgeous paradise. It is the perfect place to relax, in peace and quiet, removed from all the stressors of life. The beach and pool are incredibly beautiful. The food is amazing. Dinners are different every night and it’s always a wonderful surprise to find out what it will be. Reto, Fernanda, Santiago and the rest of the staff are so kind and warm. I truly love it there. We had a wonderful vacation and we are excited to go back as soon as possible.

Manta Raya - Best food and hospitality in Salchi! A gem! Stayed in a friend’s home for the last 6 nights. Ate dinner every night at Manta Raya. Each night we were treated to excellent food made with lots of love. Fernanda, Santiago and Reto made our stay unforgettable. Be sure to try the passion fruit pie! Delicious! Thank you Manya Raya!

Nancy, mi experiencia en Hotel Manta Raya Las instalaciones del Hotel Manta Raya son bonitas y cómodas, limpias y aseadas. El servicio de la cocina es excelente un muy bien sazón, la presentación es única y lo mejor es que la preparan las personas de la localidad eso le da el plus a su comida. La atención por parte de los encargados del Hotel es inigualable porque son amables, atentos y muy considerados con los huéspedes, por eso lo disfrutamos mucho porque nos sentimos muy confortables en el lugar. Mi punto de vista sobre la distancia es entender que es un lugar alejado al que sí se puede llegar pero necesitas transporte propio para trasladarte. Obvio volvería a regresar como un lugar de descanso, vacaciones y relajamiento total. Disfrutamos mucho la estancia en el lugar, muy tranquilo y descanso total.

Excelente para un viaje en familia para descontarse Fuimos a Salchi por recomendación de unos amigos. La mala suerte fue que tuvimos mucho viento por lo que no pudimos disfrutar tanto del mar como habíamos esperado. La playa la teníamos básicamente para nosotros, es perfecto si te quieres desconectar del mundo. (Literalmente porque tampoco hay cobertura para los celulares). El hotel es un pequeño hotel boutique, a primera vista los precios parecen algo elevados. Tuvimos la suite de lujo y tenía de todo lo que necesitabamos. Pero vale la pena, por la atención y la calidad de la comida, que es 100% casera. Pan casero, mermeladas caseras y una deliciosa reposteria. En menú en la noche es algo pequeño pero nos lo han adaptado s la necesidad de cada quien. Viajamos con nuestro bebé de menos de 1 año, y nos ofrecieron una cuna para la habitación y también prepararon porciones especiales de comida para nuestro bebé. Los únicos puntos que se podrían tal vez mejorar: una sillita para bebé. Tenian un colchón y nosotros traíamos nuestra sillita de viaje, por lo tanto nos funcionó pero tal vez otros no vengan tan bien preparados y tal vez se podría tener la alberca abierta hasta más tarde, pero realmente fueron detalles mínimos que no nos perjudicaron absolutamente. :) Definitivamente volveremos 💗

disfrutamos mucho nuestra estancia Maravillosa locación y vista de la Bahia de Cuatunalco. El servicio y los alimentos inmejorables , las instalaciones muy bonitas y la atención del personal realmente espléndida. Nos gustó mucho el seguimiento personalizado desde la misma reservación. La señal de wifi podría mejorar en el último piso … Pasamos unos días increíbles y estamos invitados a regresar pronto. Gracias por todo amigos !
