About Papaya Playa Project Tulum Member of Design Hotels

Dotted along the 1km of beach and nestled in the jungle, the simplicity of the rooms is what lends them their special charm. The simplicity of the rooms is what lends them their special charm.

There is big problem with Algae in the beach .. you cannot use the beach !! It looks bad and smells like sulfur because the algae ..there is nothing to enjoy !! The Algae problem has existed for a long time and they don’t give any notice about it .. they keep saying its daily but it is seasonal .. check with someone local before you go to Papaya Playa Project in Tulum .. it’s a disaster and not worth the $$$$

Absolutely not worth the money. Dirty beach, insects everywhere, tiny outdated rooms, broken furniture, and terrible food. The whole hotel feels old and poorly maintained. If you want luxury, cleanliness, or a classy experience — stay far away from this place.

With so many other amazing options in Tulum its hard to recommend this hotel based on our experience.

Pros:
- A very nice room with good amenities
- Nice bell hop and beach wait staff

Cons:
- Really poor service from the front desk
- We arrived early and were told that hotel check-in was at 3pm, at 3:30pm our room still was not ready with the excuse of \"the hotel is completely booked\"
- They were going to show us a potential room upgrade and forgot when other guests showed up to check-in
- The second day our room keys stopped working, when we got the keys working we found out that our room hadn't been cleaned by 4:30pm

Given all the above you can find much better options for your money in Tulum

We had a great stay at PPP! Super relaxing, great service, food, and location. We took a morning yoga class as well, which was very pleasant. All the staff were super kind and made our stay feel really special. We had a jungle casita with a rooftop pool. The rooftop pool was a great decision, I was in it every morning and night while we were there. We were nested slightly in the jungle, a perfect distance away from the beach. The water pressure in the open shower was so perfect. It is hard to describe how great the water pressure was. There is not a coffee maker in the room full disclosure. It didn’t matter during my trip because I wanted a cappuccino every morning anyway. I enjoyed the short jungle stroll to the on-site café before my morning splash. I really loved this trip, it was wonderful and I would easily book this room again.

We had an incredible stay at Papaya Playa! All of the staff were friendly and helpful and accessible whenever we needed anything or had any questions and provided a lot of good recommendations to us. It was easy to be able to chat via WhatsApp’s with the front desk for questions and to arrange whatever we needed. The hotel was able to arrange scooter and bike rentals and the hotel is right at the start of the hotel zone so Tulum Road was very accessible.

Our casita was beautiful and clean and well maintained and we loved having our own private pool with ocean views. The party on Saturday was one of our favorite things we got to experience and it was nice having it be so accessible. The restaurant had amazing food and we looked forward to having breakfast every day! The included breakfast had several good options to choose from and the food was always so fresh and delicious.
The only downside was the seaweed season and not being able to thoroughly enjoy the beach, which was happening at most hotels and areas along the hotel zone and you could tell the hotel still tried to make the most of it not being as appealing. We definitely want to come back to Papaya during the busier season when the water is clear and we can thoroughly enjoy the beach club amenities. Overall was a great stay and enjoyable experience, would definitely recommend this hotel to make your time in Tulum unforgettable.

Absolutely horrendous customer service. We’ve been loyal guests for years, spent absurd amounts of money, and were improperly charged for a “late check out fee” despite being at desk at requested time, and they refused to provide explanation nor any receipt/documentation. High turnover rate with staff (everyone friendly has left) and we will never come back. Most unprofessional customer service and check-out experience. Still owed thousands in refunds for “up-charges” and no one there will do anything. Safe location but all other features that made PPP great in the past are now a distant memory. Will consider legal recourse.

Didn’t change the towels and clean the rooms, even when we asked. Food and drinks cost you an arm and a leg! Like 16 CAD for a bottle of water and 36 CAD for a shot of regular tequila.
Our room that we booked was not available! They “did us a favour” and put 6 of us in a 3-room “villa” and charged us 200 USD extra! The “lobby” is an open air area and super hot and humid. In general I found Tulum as an unreasonably expensive and reap off place! Guys think it’s Ibiza or something. And you have to be very careful, they just charge for every single stupid thing. And many times double and triple if you don’t notice.

We had a lovely stay at PPP! Despite its reputation for being a party place, it was super peaceful during the week and a great place to recharge. The breakfast was lovely - special shoutout to the breakfast staff who gave especially awesome service!
The recent storms clearly did a number on the resort, as there was lots of debris all over and many of the cabanas were under repair.
The one drawback of this resort is that the restaurant prices are pretty unreasonable, so ordering a snack or drink on the beach quickly adds up to an astronomical bill. My advice is to go out for dinner in downtown Tulum, bring in your own food and drinks, and enjoy the beautiful beach and pools!

It took me a minute to write this review because I needed to get my thoughts together. I will say overall the property is nice. Our room was cute and similar to pics on the website. However, during our stay, we did have some issues. First of all the service at the restaurant on the property is awful. It takes forever just for someone to come up and take your order and then they disappear. Be prepared to wait hours at the restaurant waiting for your food, even if they aren’t busy at all. My fiancé and I got so tired of waiting we just left and ate somewhere else. Also, on our second morning at the property, we woke up to the smell of sewage in our hotel room. We immediately notified the front desk and ask if we could be switched to a different room because the smell was actually giving me a headache. We were told that they would be able to put us in a new room soon. We waited hours and never received an update on the status of the new room. We finally went to the front desk to see what was going on only to be told that we will still have to wait a while. At this point we were frustrated and missing out on our pre-booked excursions so we asked to speak to the manager. The manager was finally able to help us get into a new room. Aside from our conversation with the manager, it felt as though the rest of the staff could care less about our concerns. They seemed very dismissive. Like I said, the property is nice, but for the amount of money we paid I would expect better service.

Extremely unwelcoming. You pay for. $750 dollar room, and they treat you like your nothing. The staff was stuck up, rude, unwelcoming, unhelpful, and they expected a top for just looking at them after you spend a fortune to even stay there. They never asked us if we needed anything by the “serviced pool” which was only about 7 by 5 feet pool for the public.the second pool was small and unserviced. 1 drink at their supposedly EDM party was $38 usd plus a tip. You need to add money to a bracelet and if you don’t use it you loose it. We felt robbed the whole time. We travel a min of 5 times a year for the past 7 years and this was by far the worst experience ever. The beach is very dirty and they have money to clean it but they didn’t.

Service was subpar for the nightly price. Didn’t get room service once and had to ask several times and never actually got it besides getting fresh towels. AC broken one night and took three asks to get it fixed. Yoga was promised daily but was missing. Property is a bit old now with cracked doors. Not a single appliance in the rooms besides AC. Not even a chair to sit on besides the bed. Also asked for a double bed weeks before arrival and was told to ask at check in to be accommodated, then promised a double bed after two nights in a single bed and then told that room was already booked after two nights with no option to upgrade. It was obvious they were just trying to kick the can down the road until we checked out but then again all this considered it is Mexico it won’t ever be perfect lol

The resort is supposedly secure, with security guards at the entrances, and a private beach, but our credit cards and cash were stolen from our room on the first night of our honeymoon by housekeeping, WHILE we were sitting right outside the room on the deck. Luckily our passports and ID and one of our cards and our electronics were locked in the safe at the time.

Management did nothing about it. Didn't respond for days, didn't apologize, basically blew us off, and said it was our fault for not having our stuff locked up. We just didn't think in a secure resort where we're paying $500 a night we needed to worry about being robbed by the staff. Especially while we're sitting a few feet away.

To top it off, we had wild animals that got into our room at night trying to get to the food we had in the room. A shower that didn't drain, and stopped working intermittently, chipped and broken dishware we were served on daily, incorrect orders that they basically refused to correct and were like \"just eat this ok?\" So I did...I mean...at that point we'd sort of given up.

They say they have a lot of amenities they don't actually have...things are kind of run down and looking shabby. The beach and the scenery are gorgeous though. The staff was very nice. The management, not so much. I don't think they really care about customer service, or repeat business. We certainly won't return, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Which is sad because it has the potential to be great.

I really enjoyed staying at papaya playa. It was amazing. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are beautiful as well. We stayed at a roof top pool and it was well worth the upgrade. I am so glad I upgraded. The cabanas a beautiful but too small and simple for my taste but also very beautiful & Cozy. The food is great. Drinks and food are a little pricy. Coming from Miami I expect this type of price from Miami but coming from tulum it was a little pricy. Overall great stay the food amazing the service Amazing. Javier was the person that helped us through our entire stay and he was always available & he even recommended so many amazing places to eat and to go. He made us a little guide. He also helped up get some scooters to go around town and we enjoyed that as well.
Overall again great stay & I would recommended it everyone to have the tulum experience this is the place to go.

enjoyed our first night here, nice staff and great beach party. We didn’t mind the noise even though it was extremely loud. What we did mind was coming back to our room with raccoon pee everywhere and our second night spent trying to get a raccoon out of our roof. The resort did nothing to compensate our last night or our bad experience l- not even an offer to move to a new casita! the whole night I was staring up at a raccoon looking down at us-trying to burry his way through the roof. The room had a very small light so I could hardly see where the raccoon was moving which made it even more terrifying. The property says this is what to expect on a property with animals- I understand, but not inside the villa! I was scared to go to the bathroom or take a shower as the raccoon had buried a hole fully through the roof to access the bathroom. Super disappointed by how this was handled.

First of all, even before arriving, Papaya Playa Project has already contacted me through my email and whatsapp to give me more details about their resort and also other excursions my husband and I might be interested in. We arrived past 8PM and everyone were just helpful and very friendly from the get go. Veronica toured us around the property and lend us an umbrella since it was raining that night. She was very nice and explained all the small details about our hotel room. Our room was prepared with petals and a fruit platter since it is our honeymoon. It was a very thoughtful touch. :) Our place was the Casita with rooftop pool and it was amazing! The view from the room is like a jungle with beautiful plants, and from the rooftop, we can see both the jungle and the sea. It was a spectacular view. The access to the beach is very easy . The beach here is immaculate in cleanliness and no seaweed since people clean it every morning. There are a lot of cabanas and they prepare it for you with a blanket and towels. The infinity pool by the bar was our favorite hang out place. The food were gorgeous to look at and delicious especially if you order something more familiar to your tastebuds I guess :)) Overall, our stay here was wonderful and next time we come back to Tulum. We’ll ditch staying in an AirBnB and just stay here for the whole time. :)

Hotel is beautiful - the hotel management were really nice but most of the servers were not so pleasant to deal with it. I stayed for 3 nights and paid over $3000 for room with a private pool. it was nice but the door to get to pool was really old and hard to open and there was no Iron or bathrobe or even a mirror in the bathroom so getting ready was time consuming. I didn’t have hot water for most of my showers and the toilet seat was too small. The place was beautiful but sadly I can’t say it was worth more the amount of money I paid.

Amazing trip at PPP / hotels.com screwed up!

Papaya playa was amazing. Great food and service was outstanding. Hotels.com however really missed the mark on customer service. They hotel rate on the hotels website was cheaper than what was advertised on hotels.com. After sharing pictures of the actual website for the hotel, and going through their online portal, the customer service rep told me they would not honor the cheaper rate, which was literally on the hotels website. Absolutely ridiculous for hotel.com. I then tied to cancel my trip through hotels.com but was told I would not be refunded. (Only reason to do this was to be able to book cheaper on papaya playas website). I spent 20 minutes with the hotels.com rep. and went in circles with the individual

Overall amazing trip

The property was wonderful with cool art throughout. Great location. The check in process and staff was great. The moon party was awesome! The food and bar staff was very disappointing.

Pibi was our receptionist and made our check in super easy like butter. V were kinda early for checkin but meanwhile they showed us the property and kinda gave us a mini tour of the property. Thank you poula for taking care of us so well and easy. She was very professional and friendly. The morning yoga session was amazing rajayogui was our instructor and lemme tell u the hour and half went so fast didn’t even realize, v felt so peaceful and healing.

I will recommend Papaya Playa Project to anyone traveling to Tulum. The area is absolutely stunning & there is so much to do. The service was outstanding and Javier was the warmest of them all. Can’t wait to go back for another stay. I loved that we could charge everything to the room and also had a great massage on the beach. Staff, location & overall environment was 10/10.

I have stayed at several hotels in Tulum before and Papaya Playa Project has by far been the best experience I’ve had staying at a resort in this town. Kiki reserved my motorbike, dinner and recommended cool things to do in the neighborhood. If you’re looking to explore the local side of town she knows the best places to eat. The food is incredible here at the resort as well! Highly recommend Papaya Playa Project. Thank you Kiki and staff for your hospitality. I will be sure to come back.

Where should I begin????

Beach is very filthy and dirty

No hot water

Frog in the room

There is no lights at night time you can’t find your room

Filling up your used bottle of water disgusting

Staff in the restaurants outside are sleep walking too long to get a service no one comes to check if you need anything

No music for most of the day and when there is music it’s not live and too loud

Security and waitress people don’t speak English

Very poor menu

Thin walls

Definitely not my next time booking - Ikal is Wayyyyy better

This resort is not worth its price or hype

It’s know for its beach club and you can easily access it without staying there

Stunning property

The property is absolutely beautiful. There are many things to discover. 2 beach clubs (one relax and one with dj) with each a pool. The rooms are little cabanas scattered in the jungle throughout the property. I would recommend a room upgrade, the basic room is very small. The reatauranta are vey good and the menu changes throughout the day. It is 20 minutes cab ride from the restaurant area (USD 30 each way) that would be the only downside with location but we didn't mind. There are a few shops 3 minutea walk from the hotel.

Our stay at Papaya Playa was beautiful. Besttt resort you could ask for in Tulum! We must give special thanks to Sofia our guest representative, she truly went above and beyond to ensure we were cared for and satisfied. Top class service and top class stay. If you are looking for the best resort in Tulum, look no further, you’ve found it with PPP.

ANGLO WORLD AT ITS BEST!!!

Tulum is amazing!!! This is my third time visiting this area and I wanted to try something more upscale and I was recommended to try this location. I booked my trip 6 months in advance and got a deal (not really) for 3 nights. I arrived on Halloween night and they had a massive party which I enjoyed very much. I stayed at room #10 and it was probably the smallest room in the complex. The strange thing is that the hotel was not even 50% capacity and they did not offer me to upgrade to a better room. If you are mold sensitive like me, you are in bad luck. The food is OK and the drinks are amazing. I felt super secure in this complex and if you can afford it, make it happen. If you are a herbivore and have cash to burn, this is your place.

The property was very pretty, but if you did not pay for the expensive rooms, the normal rooms were very poor - the worst rooms I have ever stayed in.
