United States of AmericaFood options amazing, very great staff. Food, drinks, beach, privacy, art and location best in Tulum. Better than azulik because it has a private beach! Our host Javier was amazing and very nice always ready to help and recommendations. Even responded instantly when we needed something at midnight! Great stay thank you. Will return.

United States of AmericaPapaya Playa project was the quintessential location to remove yourself from the world and to "get away". The customer service was exceptional, they were overly friendly, made sure we were taken care of, and even assisted in booking/finding local activities to do. HUGE shout-out to Javier, for helping book the Cenote tours, suggesting the local bar/restaurant, and enrolling us in the breathe-work yoga experience.

United States of Americabeautiful beaches/pools/staff. Javier and Jessica were awesome and so friendly/helpful
Antonio
United States of America
United States of AmericaFront desk staff when we checked in were attentive, Javier who checked us out early in the morning was great, as was a different Javier who in the afternoon showed up to our room and would be our personal concierge. Eric (or Erin?) our evening server in the restaurant was also accommodating. Food was amazing. The sommelier friendly and informative. The beach - from rocky outcrops on each end - are part of Papaya Playa which was wonderful ensuring a great beach experience not interrupted by many shoreline peddlers or hotel guests from neighboring establishments. The bohemian vibe is fun and interesting. Some really unique souvenirs to be found in the many many shops. I've stayed at Papaya Playa 3 times now: 2006, 2008, and 2022. Although there's been a lot of change, the place has maintained it's own distinct character, that of a relaxed environment overlain by luxury that allows a guest to self-indulgently and shamelessly recharge.

does each bungalo have its own soaker pool on the roof? it looks that way in the pictures and want to be sure.None of the bungalow rooms have private pools. That would be only for the Casita Jungleview with pool or our Casita Oceanview with pool. However, there are 2 common pools on property.Asked about: Jungle View Cabin - 1 Bed • Answered on December 10, 2020
