We spent 6 days here at the end of season for $30. The bungalows were much nicer than any others we saw in Patnem, and were well appointed. The hot water worked great, and we had 3 fans to help keep cool. I don't know if there was an issue with the generator of if this was normal, but the... More

Stayed at Papayas in December 2011 for 2 nights in a beach front hut. The huts themselves are nicely decorated, bed had the usual hard matress but decent size, bathroom good with warm water, flushing loo, soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors provided. Good sized balcony to sit on with two chairs, nicely positioned to watch the world go by. But be... More

7 nights in Papayas was exactly what I needed and better than I expected. I changed bungalows twice - my fault as I kept extending my stay - and found the huts of a constant high standard. The room has a large bed with a clean mosquito net, very clean bedsheets and blanket (precious as nights can be chilly) and... More

I have just returned from my first visit to Goa after staying at Papayas Beach Huts on Patnem Beach. What an amazing and magical experience - Papayas is a wonderful Beach Hut complex and I cannot praise it enough. After looking at other beach huts on the beach Papayas is definately worth the extra rupees. My partner and I experienced... More

We had an excellent 'holiday inside a holiday' at Papayas. We were really pleased with our rooms, the location and the food. After reading some trip advisor comments we nearly changed our booked - soooo glad we didn't. We were travelling with a 3 & 5 year old and they just loved it! Patnem was more touristy than we had...

This was our first time in Goa and we were so glad we chose to go to Patnem. It is a really beautiful little place, just outside Palolem (less than 100RS in tuk-tuk). The beach was idyllic, there's even a security guard there to keep the cows away! You just couldnt ask for a nicer place in Goa. We stayed... More

We stayed at Papayas sea view beach hut for 7 nights and it was definatly an experience. The room was basic, could have been cleaner, and an OK size. We did however have a few frogs... More

We´ve been there a few days ago. There are nice Huts, that looks nice, but : In our first hut there where a lot of cockroaches, so we changed our room after the first night. In the next room we had just one cockroach, but as large as a thumb and a few frogs in the bathroom. In all these... More
