Papaya Villa

Close to good snorkeling. Quiet area. Lovely gardens and a comfortable room. A relaxing place to stay. Food was great. Hosts were friendly and helpful.

The german girl who came a month early 😅. Long story, short way I book the wrong Date. And suddenly, I was there. For Marcus and Shoran, that was no problem at all. They welcomed me warmly and prepared the room for me. I've never had such lovely hosts, who were so concerned about making sure I caught my flight to Santo. The entire accommodation is designed with great attention to detail; every shell was collected by Shoran. Marcus conjured up a delicious dinner. The place is a bit remote, but it's like heaven on earth, so much peace and solitude, simply unique.

There is nothing

Having experienced a Papaya Villa breakfast will ruin all future breakfasts! Gourmet two course brekky in a luxurious garden setting, listening to the sound of the ocean, complemented by conversations with our wonderful hosts who go above and beyond to make our stay a brilliant experience!

We could not in any way fault our stay at Papaya Villa. It is located just a hop, skip and jump from Blue Lagoon. Offering top notch dinners provided by Marcus. With several swimming and snorkeling spots a short walk away, what’s not to love!

This exclusive, secluded spot was so peaceful and relaxing. The meals were superb and the snorkelling was amazing! The hosts were friendly and accommodating and we felt very refreshed having spent a few days here.

No complaints.

We enjoyed our stay here. We spent over one week here and still feel not enough. If you are looking for something unique, private and exceptional, papaya villa is a good choice. It is a bit away from the city but believe me it is worthy. They have reliable WiFi and clean underground water. The buildings survived through tycoons and earthquakes. It is a safe place.

Nothing in particular

Meals were delicious. The place is very privileged with its location. Stoney and Marcus were incredibly nice and friendly, always looking after us. Thank you for everything!

Everything was lovely

I had an incredible stay at Papaya Villa. Marcus and Stoney are amazing hosts and they have built a beautiful home. It was secluded and peaceful, which is exactly what I was looking for. The food was fantastic and flavourful. Short trip to blue lagoon for Swimming. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and would hope to return one day.

Love how sustainable it was and the food made was amazing. Also loved all the advice given on travelling and visiting other areas of the island
