Manantiales is a resort (balneario) in the Maldonado Department of southeastern Uruguay.
In the Spanish language in the Americas, a manantial means spring.

On its coastline is a small point called Punta Piedras. To the west of this point is the beach Las Olas Playa and to its east the beach Playa Bikini. To the west, it borders a neighbourhood called "Barrio San Carlos", [1] which lies just east of the resort La Barra, and to the east it borders the resort El Chorro.
In 2011 Manantiales had a population of 149 permanent inhabitants and 486 dwellings. [2]
