The breakfast at the Manuia Beach Resort has received mixed reviews from guests. Some guests found it to be lacking in variety and fresh fruit with canned fruit salad being offered. However, other guests found the complimentary breakfast to be great and appreciative of being included in the cost. The tropical complimentary breakfast included a good variety of continental options, although there was no cooked breakfast. The restaurant also had a nice lunch menu. Despite some criticisms, the breakfast was considered adequate and fine by some, although some guests would have liked more staff present.

The Manuia Beach Resort offers a fantastic dining experience with its superb BBQ buffet and fire dancing show upon arrival. Guests are impressed with the resort restaurant's excellent dishes, though some have commented on the slightly overpriced evening meals. However, the lovely restaurant and pool on site, coupled with the great sunset views and best cocktails on the island, make up for it. The staff is praised for their great service and guests love the excellent dinners while watching the sunset. Though some minor issues were reported with the disorganized and unfriendly maitre D in the On the Beach Restaurant, the restaurant's limited menu options and failure to cater to dietary requirements like vegan and gluten-free hinder the overall dining experience. Despite this, guests describe the BBQ buffet and fire show as sumptuous and the one dinner they had as very good. Overall, Manuia Beach Resort is an excellent choice for a dine-in experience in the Cook Islands.
