The place was great overall, rustic/beachy accommodations but right on the beach, nice swimming pools, friendly staff. I'm happy we went with this 'resort' for our vacation.

Gorgeous facility with beautiful accommodations. We truly felt like we were in a tropical paradise. The property is very quiet and spread out in a way that allows the guest to be as romantic a they want. The property also provides great areas where guests can lay around comfortably on there computers or resting while receiving delicious food service. Just feet away from lounging areas were amazing DJ and sun bathing areas. The water was incredible and the service was great. Very clean and organized. Papaya Playa Project is located in such a unique environment where guests who enjoy relaxing will feel like they are in heaven, yet people who enjoy the party atmosphere will feel like they are in the most exclusive and fabulous beach club event they have ever been to. Very elegant town and looking forward to many more vacation to Tulum.
