One of the most amazing vacations we have had in a while! The staff, the rooms, the ambiance, clean beaches, conveniently located, everything was amazing! We spent 5 days here and honestly was so relaxing. Wifi was great, air conditioning, room amenities, all fantastic. I will say the private pool was cozy, although the water was not temperature controlled. The staff is wonderful at assisting with setting up dinner reservations, Cenote tours, towels for the beach, etc. We came in October when the season is slower and with lower occupancy was really nice. Saturday night is their beach club party and well worth it. Pro tip, buy water and alcohol from local convenient store and keep in your room. Water is $6 per bottle everywhere and that adds up just as fast as alcohol. During the party, you can go back to your room and have a few before returning for the party. :) Highly recommend asking the staff for bicycle rentals and using them to get to places during the day! At night however, be mindful and get a taxi for your safety. When we go back to Tulum, high chance we will come stay at PPP again!

Lovely property set in the jungle with private access to the beach. We saw lots of birds, lizards and a coati over the three days we were there! The twin queen room with the beach view was really comfortable. We didn't have a mirror in the room but when we asked they brought a full length freestanding mirror which was perfect. The included breakfast was absolutely huge and good quality. All the staff were beyond helpful and friendly. I also liked the smoothies in the coffee shop. You can rent bikes and pretty much cycle to anywhere in Tulum with the cycle paths.

- not your typical Mexico resort. Doesn’t feel like a fast paced, Americanized party resort. - located in a jungle surrounded by nature - individual “casa’s” ranging in sizes that were well air conditioned despite the straw roofs. - good food - friendly staff, never felt pressured to tip - direct communication with staff via WhatsApp which was very convenient. ie: ready for a room cleaning? just let them know so you won’t be bothered by knocking when you want to sleep in. - loved all the art installations: everything on the resort reminded me of Burning Man

I liked the atmosphere and enjoyed my stay. Beachfront room plays a big role it! Having a private hammock in front of the room and being few steps away from ocean-view pool was an amazing experience! I read in reviews that food was expensive. I will call it pricey but totally normal for Tulum beach. I would add that food was very tasty. Fish and chips, octopus and french toast👌 I also read about scorpions in the room but haven’t seen even a bug. They also host a party on Saturdays. It’s a must see in Tulum.

Papaya 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.
