The Homepage is still on Web but you can't get in Contact with them. We stayed in an other Place close to where Mañana was. There they told us that Mañana is closed since around 1 Year. Hope this information is us full for other travellers. Mañana still recommended in Lonely Planet.

We have tried to reach the resort for a reservation but didn't get any answer from them. From the divecenter who where placed at the resort we were informed, that the resort is now closed since some time. Thats why this divecenter mentions aswell, that they are no longer based at manana resort.

The sunsets I saw here were second to none other, which somehow made up for the lack of running/warm water, locks on doors to guest rooms and life vests. If you’re of a nervous disposition, don’t stay here, but if you like adventure, meeting new friends and stunning interrupted beach vistas do visit. Just insist on a life jacket when travelling from the pier at Kota Belud to the beach resort. My friend and I stayed for 3 nights which was more than enough. Taxi drivers didn’t seem overly comfortable with the remote location of the resort and we were glad to have left our large backpacks in Kota Kinabalu. Some of the best memories were made here on our trip in October 2016 - just don’t expect too much!

Phoned these guys days ahead, got a curt conversation saying the days I wanted to come were free, and to whatsap the details to the same number. No subsequent reply to whatsap messages or emails. Figured it may be signal is bad there, so made the trek out to Pituru Laut anyways. Was met by a whole bunch of locals who finally told me the real story, the place is closed indefinitely, possibly because their boat is broken, but given the long list of bad trip advisor reviews, probably because these guys just give up. Met a German couple who even spoke to a guy over the phone the day before on the same number, and ended in the same situation, stranded in this tiny village on the coast. Thankfully we were all saved by the Dragon Pearl Beach Resort, which was not far and in hindsight a far better alternative. Don't waste your time with Mañana.…

I don't know where to even start, so I will begin with the good points: It has a very beautiful, isolated, relaxing and peaceful beach (beware of the jellyfish.) However, we experienced many different problems. On our first day, we were picked up in a very broken boat (which was actually very entertaining!) When we got to our room, we realized we didn't have any toilet paper in our room so of course, we asked for some (there was no bum gun to compensate for no toilet paper.) We were barely acknowledged and told us they had none. The next day (after a terrible nights sleep in a very uncomfortable bed) the couple staying in the room next door left and a new couple arrived. They didn't replace the bedding, towels etc - I had already suspected the bedding and towels weren't clean due to the smell, but the staff couldn't care less that we had noticed this. I asked for a new (clean) towel which I was once again, barely acknowledged and needless to say, I never received it. The following day they ran out of running water too. My partner and I would have left but unfortunately we already paid 3 days upfront. Overall - it is extremely overpriced, dirty and the staff are rude (besides the man that rides the broken boat.) I really have no problem roughing it, but to pay $37/per night and not receive toilet paper, clean bedding and towels and no running water isn't justified to me. Also, the food was expensive for how average/terrible it was... I really hope the staff changes their attitude and tries to accommodate their guests more because this really is such a special beach with so much potential!…
