The grounds were beautiful me very well maintained. The art on the property was unique and really cool. The staff was incredible. They made our stay perfect in every way.

We arrived a day after the hurricane recently. Our room wasn’t ready until 6 PM. The room was missing a lot of things like a safe and robes. Definitely not worth the extra money we paid for an upgraded room. Pool was extremely dirty didn’t get in it, not once. Food was average.

This is a beautiful property, I loved staying here the beach is stunning and it’s in a great location. I would recommend this place and I would return again.

The beach area is beautiful and the food is great!

There was nothing to not like about this property. I spent my 33rd Birthday here and it was the most serene resort I’ve ever visited. It had privacy, socialization, calmness, it had it all. Very very pleased that I chose this location. And not to mention, everything about it is gorgeous. From the casitas, the pathways around the resorts, the cabanas, the art installations, and lastly, the views. Thank you, papaya playa for making my birthday a very special one. We’ll be back!
