Is the 2x1 cocktails permanent or a temporary promotion?
The 2x1 cocktails at Mantas Beach Club is a permanent feature of the day pass — not a limited promotion. It's included every day for all adult guests, making it one of the best drinks value among all Rosario Islands beach clubs. Drinks on the islands add up fast, so having 2-for-1 cocktails built into the price makes a real difference for your budget.
Is Mantas Beach Club good for families with children?
Yes — Mantas Beach Club Cartagena is one of the most family-friendly options in the Rosario Islands. It has dedicated kids pricing (ages 4–7), a calm and organized atmosphere, beach loungers, shared transport, and a relaxed vibe that works well for families. If you're also considering other family-friendly options, Isla del Encanto and Isla del Sol are worth comparing.
Is Mantas the same as Manta Beach Club or Manta Mar Beach Club?
Yes — travelers search using several variations: Manta Beach Club Cartagena, Manta Mar Beach Club, and Mantas Beach Club all refer to the same place in the Rosario Islands. The official name is Mantas Beach Club.
Is snorkeling included at Mantas Beach Club?
A dedicated snorkeling tour is not included in the standard day pass. Mantas includes paddleboards and kayaks for water activities. If snorkeling in the Rosario Islands is your main priority, contact us before booking — we can recommend the best available option, such as Pao Pao Beach Club, which includes guided snorkeling in protected reef areas.
Is Mantas Beach Club a party island?
No. Mantas Beach Club has DJ music and a social atmosphere, but it stays calm and family-friendly — significantly more relaxed than party-focused clubs like Bora Bora. If you want the full party experience, Bora Bora Beach Club (adults only, 18+) is the right choice.
What's the dock fee and why isn't it included?
All guests pay a mandatory administrative fee of COP 28,500 (~USD 8) in cash at the pier before boarding. This is a government-related fee that cannot be pre-paid or bundled into the booking price. Bring cash — no card payment at the dock.
